Modifications in FLAP's second cytosolic loop influence 5‐LOX interaction, inhibitor binding, and leukotriene formation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The enzyme 5‐lipoxygenase (5‐LOX) catalyzes the first step in the biosynthesis of leukotrienes (LTs) involved in inflammatory pathophysiology. After cellular stimulation, 5‐LOX translocates to the nucleus, interacting with the 5‐LOX‐activating protein (FLAP) to form LTA4 from arachidonic acid (AA).

Endogenous TDP-43 mislocalization in a novel knock-in mouse model reveals DNA repair impairment, inflammation, and neuronal senescence

open access: yesActa Neuropathologica Communications
TDP-43 mislocalization and aggregation are key pathological features of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)- and frontotemporal dementia (FTD). However, existing transgenic hTDP-43 WT or ∆NLS-overexpression animal models primarily focus on late-stage TDP-

Differences in the Response to DNA Double-Strand Breaks between Rod Photoreceptors of Rodents, Pigs, and Humans

open access: yesCells, 2020
Genome editing (GE) represents a powerful approach to fight inherited blinding diseases in which the underlying mutations cause the degeneration of the light sensing photoreceptor cells of the retina.

Loss of Melanopsin (OPN4) Leads to a Faster Cell Cycle Progression and Growth in Murine Melanocytes

open access: yesCurrent Issues in Molecular Biology, 2021
Skin melanocytes harbor a complex photosensitive system comprised of opsins, which were shown, in recent years, to display light- and thermo-independent functions.

B cell mechanobiology in health and disease: emerging techniques and insights into therapeutic responses

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
B cells sense external mechanical forces and convert them into biochemical signals through mechanotransduction. Understanding how malignant B cells respond to physical stimuli represents a groundbreaking area of research. This review examines the key mechano‐related molecules and pathways in B lymphocytes, highlights the most relevant techniques to ...

Red propolis: Chemical composition and pharmacological activity

open access: yesAsian Pacific Journal of Tropical Biomedicine, 2017
Propolis has been used worldwide for years in folk medicine and currently marketed by the pharmaceutical industry. In Brazil, propolis was classified into 13 groups based on their organoleptics and physicochemical characteristics. The 13th type named red

Evolutionary Origins of DNA Repair Pathways: Role of Oxygen Catastrophe in the Emergence of DNA Glycosylases

open access: yesCells, 2021
It was proposed that the last universal common ancestor (LUCA) evolved under high temperatures in an oxygen-free environment, similar to those found in deep-sea vents and on volcanic slopes.

RB in DNA repair

open access: yesOncotarget, 2015
The retinoblastoma protein (RB1) has a welldocumented role as a key regulator of cell cycle progression by controlling the G1/S phase transition [1]. RB1 has also emerged as a multi-functional protein involved in a wide range of biological processes including transcriptional regulation by recruiting chromatin remodelling enzymes, DNA replication via ...
