AbstractPeriodontitis is a complex inflammatory disease in which the host genome, in conjunction with extrinsic factors, determines susceptibility and progression. Genetic predisposition is the strongest risk factor in the first decades of life. As people age, chronic exposure to the periodontal microbiome puts a strain on the proper maintenance of ...

Quantifying Protein–Glycan Interactions Using Native Mass Spectrometry
ABSTRACT Interactions between glycan‐binding proteins (GBPs) and carbohydrates (glycans) are essential to many biological processes relevant to human health and disease. For most GBPs, however, their glycan interactome—the repertoire of glycans recognized and their specificities—is poorly defined.

Botulinum Neurotoxin Serotype C Associates with Dual Ganglioside Receptors to Facilitate Cell Entry*
Background: How botulinum neurotoxin serotype C (BoNT/C) enters neurons is unclear. Results: BoNT/C utilizes dual gangliosides as host cell receptors. Conclusion: BoNT/C accesses gangliosides on the plasma membrane.

Biology of the BKPyV: An Update
The BK virus (BKPyV) is a member of the Polyomaviridae family first isolated in 1971. BKPyV causes frequent infections during childhood and establishes persistent infections with minimal clinical implications within renal tubular cells and the urothelium.

Advancements in Mass Spectrometry‐Based Glycomics in Food and Nutritional Science
ABSTRACT This review highlights advancements in mass spectrometry (MS)‐based glycomics in food and nutritional science. Carbohydrates, which are vital for human health, exhibit complex structures, making their analysis challenging. MS has become an indispensable tool for elucidating the structures of carbohydrates, including glycans, through soft ...

Simultaneous Study of Cholesterol and GM1 Ganglioside by Specific Probes: Lipid Distribution during Maturation, Capacitation and the Acrosome Reaction [PDF]
Lipid distribution has been extensively studied in the plasma membrane of the male gamete due to its relevant role in sperm physiology. However, there are controversial reports about their distribution.

This review reconsiders the amyloid cascade by placing lipid dynamics at its core. It shows that free lipids, governed by critical micellar concentration, act as pathological chaperones that redirect amyloid aggregation toward membrane‐damaging species.
