Genetic interaction mapping reveals functional relationships between peptidoglycan endopeptidases and carboxypeptidases.

PLoS Genetics
Peptidoglycan (PG) is the main component of the bacterial cell wall; it maintains cell shape while protecting the cell from internal osmotic pressure and external environmental challenges.

Immunoglobulin A protease from Sutterella wadsworthensis modifies outcome of infection with Campylobacter jejuni and is associated with microbiome diversity

Gut Microbes
Sutterella wadsworthensis is an enigmatic member of the microbiota, previously reported to be present in healthy humans yet also associated with certain gut diseases and their therapeutic outcomes. Here, we report on S.

Diagnosis and management of equine metabolic syndrome

Equine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Equine metabolic syndrome (EMS) is a prevalent endocrine disorder that increases the risk of hyperinsulinaemia‐associated laminitis (HAL), the most common and clinically significant form of laminitis. The central pathological feature of EMS is insulin dysregulation (ID), which encompasses basal or postprandial hyperinsulinaemia and tissue ...

Combating ageing beyond the cell: Emerging roles of extracellular proteostasis

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Ageing challenges the body's ability to maintain a stable and functional proteome, leading to protein damage and aggregation both inside and outside cells. This review focuses on the less well understood mechanisms of extracellular protein quality control and how they become disrupted in ageing, particularly in neurodegenerative diseases.

Malaria mosquito antimicrobial defence requires immunity and detoxification gene regulation by Lola

Insect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
Malaria mosquito antimicrobial defence requires upregulation of lola. Attenuation of lola in the midgut of Anopheles albimanus mosquitoes inhibits the upregulation of immunity genes induced by challenge. Putative target genes of the Lola transcription factor were revealed by lola attenuation, including Cecropin‐C, Draper, PPAF2, Clip‐domain serine ...

From biology to biotechnology: Host‐regulation factors from parasitoid wasps are a source of bioactive molecules with translational potential

Insect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
Parasitoid wasps deploy maternal and embryonic factors to reprogramme host physiology. Venom, calyx fluid, polydnaviruses, teratocytes and larval secretions act in a coordinated, compartmentalised manner. Host‐regulation factors are promising sources of insecticidal, antimicrobial and bioinspired translational molecules.

Ocular Manifestations of Infectious Salmon Anaemia Virus Infection in Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar)

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Eyes are essential sensory organs needed by teleost Atlantic salmon for high visual acuity and survival in both the wild and in aquaculture settings. In this work, we assessed the ocular manifestations of Infectious Salmon Anaemia Virus (ISAV) infection in Atlantic salmon by a cohabitation‐mediated infection assay and histological and ...

Nanoparticles in Periodontology and Implant Dentistry: From Mechanisms to Clinical Applications

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Nanotechnology holds significant promise in improving dental care, yet there is a need for more reliable clinical studies to validate its effectiveness and safety. ABSTRACT Recent advances in nanotechnology are reshaping the landscape of periodontology and implant dentistry, particularly through the application of nanoparticles (NPs).

Proteomic Characterization of Grade II Furcation Defects: A Discovery‐Phase Study

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This study analyzed the gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) proteome of 35 patients with Grade II furcation defects using the Olink Reveal platform. Comparison with non‐periodontitis sites identified 227 differentially expressed proteins. A machine‐learning pipeline prioritized a 34‐protein signature (including GLIPR1, MME, and IRAG2) that accurately ...

Porphyromonas gingivalis GroEL accelerates abdominal aortic aneurysm formation by matrix metalloproteinase‐2 SUMOylation in vascular smooth muscle cells: A novel finding for the activation of MMP‐2

Molecular Oral Microbiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Infection is a known cause of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), and matrix metalloproteases‐2 (MMP‐2) secreted by vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) plays a key role in the structural disruption of the middle layer of the arteries during AAA progression.
