Polyproline: A Synthetic Polypeptide With Unique Properties

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Poly‐L‐proline is a unique polypeptide distinguished by its well‐defined secondary structures and unusual thermal behavior. This mini review highlights recent advances in the synthesis of poly‐L‐proline by N‐carboxyanhydride (NCA) polymerization, the formation of structurally defined architectures and nanostructures, and emerging strategies that ...

Elastin peptides in aging and pathological conditions

Biomolecular Concepts, 2013
Elastin is the protein responsible for the resilience of vertebrate tissue. It is an extremely stable protein deposited during the early stages of life and experiencing almost no renewal. As a consequence, it can be considered that each individual has an

Targeting Nupr1‐Mediated p53 Mitochondrial Sequestration Alleviates Aortic Dissection by Restoring the Gadd45b‐Dependent Survival Program

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies Nupr1 as a crucial stress‐responsive orchestrator driving AD. Under severe stress, Nupr1 massively accumulates within mitochondria to sequester p53, triggering apoptosis and concurrently repressing the Gadd45b‐mediated survival program.

Spatiotemporal Regulation of Hierarchical Assembly of Hydroxyapatite for Enamel Remineralization

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Biomimetic repair exhibits unique advantages for enamel regeneration compared with conventional clinical treatments. An enzymatic mineralization system (EMS) is developed, where the resulting HAP nanorods hierarchically assemble into a highly ordered structure on the enamel surface through the spatiotemporal modulation of interfacial energies of ...

LncRNA FLJ20021 Restrains Fibroblast Senescence and Matrix Remodeling in Pelvic Organ Prolapse by Promoting XRCC6‐Dependent ADI1 Transcription

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
FLJ20021 interacts with XRCC6 to regulate ADI1 transcription and downstream cellular phenotypes in hUSLFs. Reduced FLJ20021 in POP is associated with lower ADI1, increased apoptosis, senescence, and an ECM‐degrading marker profile. Conversely, FLJ20021 overexpression enhances XRCC6‐dependent ADI1 expression, reduces apoptosis and senescence, and shifts
