Binuclear Copper‐Dependent Oxidative Enzymes Involved in Fungal Natural Product Modifications
This article summarizes recent biochemical characterizations of a new enzyme family named by the authors as binuclear copper‐dependent oxidative enzymes (BiNCOs). Found in fungal natural product biosynthesis, BiNCOs catalyze diverse CH functionalization reactions, including C(sp3)H halogenation, C(sp3)H hydroxylation, C(sp3)O macrocyclization, and ...

ABSTRACT Hyperglycemia, glucose fluctuations, and thyroid dysfunction contribute to the progression of diabetic nephropathy. This study aimed to investigate the associations of glycemia, glucose variability, and thyroid hormones with albuminuria in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). In total, 451 T2DM patients were included.

Plasmepsins as Antimalarial Drug Targets—Then, Now, and the Future
ABSTRACT Malaria is a devastating disease caused by Plasmodium parasites. Plasmodium parasites express ten cathepsin D‐like aspartyl proteases, called plasmepsins (PMs). These PMs have diverse roles fulfill diverse functions throughout the parasite's lifecycle, though several exhibit functional redundancies. Among them, PMV, PMIV, and PMX are essential

ABSTRACT The Nav1.5 channel, a major isoform of voltage‐gated sodium ion channel, is mainly found in ventricular cardiomyocytes, playing a key role in generating essential cardiac action potentials for normal heart rhythms. Mutations in Nav1.5 have been associated with severe heart conditions such as long QT syndrome, Brugada syndrome, cardiac ...

ABSTRACT Objective The real‐world evidence on the association between glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1RAs) and cancer risk remains limited and mixed. Methods In 2013–2020 national Medicare claims data, we included cancer‐naïve patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). We identified those who initiated GLP‐1 RA, sodium‐glucose cotransporter 2

Novel Dipeptidyl Peptidase-4–Inhibiting Peptide Derived From β-Lactoglobulin
.: Trypsin-treated β-lactoglobulin significantly decreased the glucose level after an oral glucose tolerance test using mice. We performed the present study to identify the active peptide inhibiting dipeptidyl peptidase-4 from trypsin-treated β ...
