Maternal nutrition as a key determinant of placental and developing blood–brain barrier xenobiotic protective functions

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Suboptimal maternal nutrition alters placental and developing blood–brain barrier (BBB) protective function and is associated with increased fetal brain vulnerability. In the placenta, nutritional adversity may reduce the exchange surface area and promote meta‐inflammation, compromising barrier efficiency in a model‐ and context ...

Applications and limitations of AI tools in enzyme design

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Enzymes catalyze various different chemical reactions often with high efficiency and selectivity compared to synthetic catalysts. Advances in protein engineering over the past decades have allowed researchers to design enzymes, improving their catalytic performance and adapting them for specific or entirely novel chemical reactions.

Disrupting Dimerization Translocates Soluble Epoxide Hydrolase to Peroxisomes.

PLoS ONE, 2016
The epoxyeicosatrienoic acid (EET) neutralizing enzyme soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) is a neuronal enzyme, which has been localized in both the cytosol and peroxisomes.

Soluble Epoxide Hydrolase Dimerization Is Required for Hydrolase Activity [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2013
Soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) plays a key role in the metabolic conversion of the protective eicosanoid 14,15-epoxyeicosatrienoic acid to 14,15-dihydroxyeicosatrienoic acid. Accordingly, inhibition of sEH hydrolase activity has been shown to be beneficial in multiple models of cardiovascular diseases, thus identifying sEH as a valuable therapeutic ...

Crystal structure of endo‐β‐1,6‐galactanase from Streptomyces avermitilis

Acta Crystallographica Section D, Volume 82, Issue 8, Page 962-971, August 2026.
The crystal structure of S. avermitilis endo‐β‐1,6‐galactanase belonging to GH30 subfamily 5 reveals the first structural framework for endo‐β‐1,6‐galactanase. The β‐1,6‐galactobiose‐bound complex identifies the catalytic subsites and a distal secondary sugar‐binding site, providing insight into β‐1,6‐galactan recognition.Endo‐β‐1,6‐galactanases ...

Insights into the potential role of sEH inhibition in the prevention and progression of neurological disorders

Endocrine and Metabolic Science
Neurological disorders are associated with decreased blood supply to the brain, neuronal damage, oxidative stress, and inflammation. While treatments are limited, soluble epoxide hydrolase inhibitors can be useful in alleviating neurological disorders ...

Mutasynthesis and Antibiotic Activity of Mupirocin Analogues

ChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 13, 14 July 2026.
A mutasynthetic strategy was developed to prepare pseudomonic acid analogues, and their antimicrobial activities were evaluated against five bacterial strains. Feeding studies with mutant strains of Pseudomonas fluorescens revealed that C7‐desepoxy‐PA‐B was metabolised to C7‐PA‐C with loss of the 8‐hydroxyl group, but no fatty acid chain extension ...

Erythropoietin modulates hepatic inflammation, glucose homeostasis, and soluble epoxide hydrolase and epoxides in high‐fat diet‐induced obese mice

FEBS Open Bio, Volume 16, Issue 7, Page 1328-1339, July 2026.
Erythropoietin administration suppresses hepatic soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) expression, leading to increased CYP‐derived epoxides. This is associated with a shift in hepatic macrophage polarization characterized by reduced M1 markers and increased M2 markers, along with reduced hepatic inflammation, suppressed hepatic lipogenesis, and attenuated ...
