miR-29b Mediates the Chronic Inflammatory Response in Radiotherapy-Induced Vascular Disease
Summary: As a consequence of the success of present-day cancer treatment, radiotherapy-induced vascular disease is emerging. This disease is caused by chronic inflammatory activation and is likely orchestrated in part by microRNAs.

Dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibition sensitizes radiotherapy by promoting T cell infiltration
Radiotherapy could regulate systemic antitumor immunity, while the immune state in the tumor microenvironment (TME) also affects the efficacy of radiotherapy.

Multiple-Peptidase Mutants of Lactococcus lactis Are Severely Impaired in Their Ability To Grow in Milk [PDF]
To examine the contribution of peptidases to the growth of Lactococcus lactis in milk, 16 single- and multiple-deletion mutants were constructed. In successive rounds of chromosomal gene replacement mutagenesis, up to all five of the following peptidase ...

Adipose Dipeptidyl Peptidase-4 and Obesity [PDF]
OBJECTIVE To study expression of the recently identified adipokine dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP4) in subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) and visceral adipose tissue (VAT) of patients with various BMIs and insulin sensitivities, as well as to assess circulating DPP4 in relation to obesity and insulin sensitivity.

Substrate specificity and structural investigation into PepO and PepW : two peptidases from Lactobacillus rhamnosus : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Biochemistry at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]
The proteolytic systems of lactic acid bacteria have important roles in the maturation and flavour development of cheese. Lactic acid bacteria pepetidases contribute to the taste of cheese through the production of low-molecular weight peptides and free ...

The role of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors
Will be clearer once ongoing trials are complete Type 2 diabetes is a progressive disease and greater treatment intensity is needed over time to control increasingly abnormal glucose concentrations.1 In the linked article (doi:10.1136/bmj.e1369), Karagiannis and colleagues present a systematic review and meta-analysis of the risks and benefits ...
