From Caffeine to Aspirin: Everyday Molecules as Triggers for Genetically Encoded Proximity Systems

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
This Perspective article highlights how familiar dietary ingredients and over‐the‐counter (OTC) drugs (such as caffeine and its metabolites, SA, and aspirin) can be repurposed as clinically translatable chemical triggers for genetically encoded proximity systems.

Strategies and mechanisms of precision genome engineering: From gene editing to genome writing

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
In this review, we examined the progression of genome manipulation from stochastic nuclease‐mediated cutting toward precise editing and programmable genome writing. We discussed tools like multi‐kilobase RNA‐guided integrators and Artificial Intelligence (AI)‐designed effectors and showed how these advances enable researchers to treat genomes as ...

Effects of FK506-binding Protein 12 and FK506 on Autophosphorylation of Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1998
FK506-binding proteins and cyclophilins are intracellular proteins that express peptidylproline cis-trans-isomerase (PPIase) activity. The effects of FK506-binding protein 12 (FKBP12) and the cyclophilins 18 and 23 on autophosphorylation of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor prepared from plasma membranes of the human epidermoid cell line A431 ...

Circadian rhythms and chronotherapy in Alzheimer's disease: Mechanisms and therapeutic implications

Neuroprotection, EarlyView.
Circadian dysregulation contributes to Alzheimer's disease through sleep disruption, clock‐gene dysfunction, neuroinflammation, impaired proteostasis, and metabolic imbalance. These alterations promote cognitive decline and disease progression, while circadian biomarkers and chronotherapeutic interventions offer opportunities for precision diagnosis ...

Resolving Endoplasmic Reticulum‐Protein Misfolding Restores Corticosteroid Sensitivity in Experimental Models of Severe Asthma

Allergy, EarlyView.
This study investigates the role of ER stress in steroid resistance in severe asthma. Results from advanced 3D models of human bronchial epithelial cells, steroid‐resistant severe asthma mouse models, and human severe asthma sputum samples show that treatment with ICS in combination with the ER stress inhibitor 4‐PBA significantly enhances steroid ...

PRELIMINARY EXPERIENCE WITH FK506 IN THORACIC TRANSPLANTATION [PDF]

Transplantation, 1991
FK506, a potent immunosuppressive macrolide antibiotic, underwent initial clinical trails in liver recipients with intractable rejection or refractory drug toxicity (1,2). The dramatic results achieved by this agent in “rescue” therapy were followed shortly by its introduction as a primary immunosuppressant in kidney and liver recipients beginning in ...

Glucocorticoids and HPA axis regulation in the stress–obesity connection: A comprehensive overview of biological, physiological and behavioural dimensions

Clinical Obesity, Volume 15, Issue 2, April 2025.
Summary Chronic stress, characterized by increased long‐term exposure to the glucocorticoid hormone cortisol, is increasingly linked to obesity development. Still, various knowledge gaps persist, including on underlying pathophysiological mechanisms. The aim of the current review is to provide the latest insights on the connection between stress and ...

FK506-Binding Proteins and Their Diverse Functions [PDF]

Current Molecular Pharmacology, 2015
FK506 binding proteins (FKBPs) are a family of highly conserved proteins in eukaryotes. The prototype of this protein family, FKBP12, is the binding partner for immunosuppressive drugs FK506 and rapamycin. FKBP12 functions as a cis/trans peptidyl prolyl isomerase (PPIase) that catalyzes interconversion between prolyl cis/trans conformations. Members of

CKAP4 Regulates ERS‐Induced Apoptosis in Osteoclasts Through FOXO3 in Periodontitis

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
CKAP4 promotes the transcription of PERK via FOXO3 in OCs, thereby facilitating ER stress‐induced apoptosis. In periodontitis, the reduction of CKAP4 in OCs leads to decreased OC apoptosis, which exacerbates alveolar bone resorption. ABSTRACT Periodontitis is a prevalent oral disease characterised by chronic inflammation and irreversible alveolar bone ...

PLIN5 Protects Against Ang II‐Induced Podocyte Lipotoxicity by Interacting With FKBP8 and Preserving Lipid Droplet–Mitochondria Contact

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
PLIN5‐FKBP8 tethers lipid droplets to mitochondria to counteract Ang II‐induced lipotoxicity. ABSTRACT Chronic kidney disease (CKD) remains a major global health challenge. Angiotensin II (Ang II)‐induced lipotoxicity is an important contributor to podocyte injury.
