LPCAT3 as a Potential Drug Target for Ultraviolet Radiation–Induced Cataract: Insights From Multiomics Analysis

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation is a major risk factor for cataract development, but the molecular mechanisms underlying this process, particularly the involvement of regulated cell death pathways such as ferroptosis, remain unclear. Transcriptomic, proteomic, and metabolomic analyses were performed on lens tissues from UVB‐induced cataract rat ...

Tachykinins Processing is Significantly Impaired in PC1 and PC2 Mutant Mouse Spinal Cord S9 Fractions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Substance P (SP) play a central role in nociceptive transmission and it is an agonist of the Neurokinin-1 receptor located in the lamina I of the spinal cord.

First genome sequence of a European Alternaria brassicae isolate and genes involved in early development of alternaria leaf spot on Brassica juncea

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
This article reports the first genome sequence of a UK Alternaria brassicae isolate. Dual RNA‐sequencing profiling of A. brassicae‐infected Brassica juncea leaves identified differentially expressed genes involved in pathogenicity and host response pathways in moderately resistant Sej‐2 (2) and moderately susceptible Pusa Jaikisan cultivars.

Identification of the active site of legumain links it to caspases, clostripain and gingipains in a new clan of cysteine endopeptidases

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 1998
We show by site‐directed mutagenesis that the catalytic residues of mammalian legumain, a recently discovered lysosomal asparaginycysteine endopeptidase, form a catalytic dyad in the motif His‐Gly‐spacer‐Ala‐Cys. We note that the same motif is present in

Red blood cell membrane proteome as a reporter of disease severity, transfusion impact and genetic background in transfusion‐dependent β‐thalassaemia

open access: yesBritish Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Summary Omics technologies have transformed research in haemoglobinopathies, yet the proteome of RBCs remains largely unexplored in transfusion‐dependent thalassaemia (TDT). In this proteomic analysis, Red blood cell (RBC) membranes from 48 adults with TDT were compared with healthy controls.

Inhibition of Fibroblast Activation Protein‐α Ameliorates Intervertebral Disc Degeneration via Reduced Vascular Invasion in Cartilage Endplate

open access: yesCell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Schematic illustration showing that FAP‐α promoted angiogenesis, cytokine release and ECM degradation in the CEP degeneration of the intervertebral disc through upregulating the PI3K/Akt/HIF‐1α/VEGFA pathway. ABSTRACT Intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) is a primary cause of low back pain, with the development of new blood vessels being a key ...

Characterisation of proteins in excretory/secretory products collected from salmon lice, Lepeophtheirus salmonis

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2018
Background The salmon louse, Lepeophtheirus salmonis, is an ectoparasitic copepod which feeds on the mucus, skin and blood of salmonid fish species. The parasite can persist on the surface of the fish without any effective control being exerted by the ...

Strain uses gap junctions to reverse stimulation of osteoblast proliferation by osteocytes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Identifying mechanisms by which cells of the osteoblastic lineage communicate in vivo is complicated by the mineralised matrix that encases osteocytes, and thus, vital mechanoadaptive processes used to achieve load‐bearing integrity remain unresolved. We
