A liver metalloendopeptidase which degrades the circulating hypotensive peptide hormones bradykinin and atrial natriuretic peptide

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 1999
A new metalloendopeptidase was purified to apparent homogeneity from a homogenate of normal human liver using successive steps of chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, hydroxyapatite and Sephacryl S-200.

Placental mitochondrial metabolic adaptation maintains cellular energy balance in pregnancy complicated by gestational hypoxia

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Placental mitochondrial adaptation to gestational hypoxia. Hypoxic pregnancy in sheep increases placental insulin like growth factor 2 (IGF2) signalling (1), which is associated with a shift in capacity away from β‐oxidation (2) and complex I‐mediated respiration (3), while maintaining total oxidative phosphorylation capacity (4).

Characterization of Bromelain‐Soluble Sheepskin (Ovis aries) Proteins and Effect of In Vitro Gastrointestinal Digestion on Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Inhibition Activity

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
Novel bioactive peptides resulted from in vitro gastrointestinal digestion of soluble sheep skin protein. ABSTRACT This work characterizes proteins extracted from sheepskin using bromelain and examines angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibition activity of the peptides generated by in vitro gastrointestinal digestion (GID).

Gut Microbiome Dysbiosis is Associated With Human T‐Lymphotropic Virus Type 1 (HTLV‐1) Infection and Disease Progression to HTLV‐1‐Associated Myelopathy/Tropical Spastic Paraparesis: A Cross‐Sectional Study

Smart Medicine, Volume 5, Issue 1, February 2026.
We provide the first comprehensive analysis of changes in the gut bacteriome at different clinical stages of HTLV‐1 infection. HTLV‐1 infection is associated with a dysbiosis that includes reduced bacterial diversity and an inverted Firmicutes/Bacteroidetes ratio.

CRISPR/Cas9-engineering of Kell null erythrocytes to unveil host targeted irresistible antimalarial

Communications Biology
Malaria elimination faces challenges from drug resistance, stemming from mutations within the parasite’s genetic makeup. Genetic adaptations in key erythrocyte proteins offer malaria protection in endemic regions.

Exploring the Potential and Evaluating Hydrocarbon Degradation by Novel Antarctic Dietzia and Pusillimonas Isolates From a Pristine Environment

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 1, February 2026.
The Antarctic Dietzia and Pusillimonas isolates were tested for bioremediation applications. Genomic analyses revealed the potential to degrade complex organic compounds, potential virulence factors and resistance genes. Physiological assays showed a wide range of adaptation to abiotic factors and sensitivity to different groups of antibiotics ...
