The 4G/5G PAI-1 polymorphism influences the endothelial response to IL-1 and the modulatory effect of pravastatin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
BACKGROUND: Increased plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-1) levels lead to impaired fibrinolytic function associated with higher cardiovascular risk. PAI-1 expression may be regulated by different inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin-1alpha (IL-1)

Microtubule motors transport phagosomes in the RPE, and lack of KLC1 leads to AMD-like pathogenesis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The degradation of phagosomes, derived from the ingestion of photoreceptor outer segment (POS) disk membranes, is a major role of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE). Here, POS phagosomes were observed to associate with myosin-7a, and then kinesin-1, as

Solid State Fermentation: An Effective Method for Lovastatin Production by Fungi over Submerged Fermentation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The Enzyme 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase (HMG CoA reductase) catalyses conversion of HMG CoA to mevalonate during cholesterol biosynthesis. Lovastatin is used as an anti-cholesterol drug which blocks HMG CoA reductase activity.

Regulation of dolichol-linked glycosylation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
In the majority of congenital disorders of glycosylation, the assembly of the glycan precursor GlcNAc2Man9Glc3 on the polyprenol carrier dolichyl-pyrophosphate is compromised.

Pyrin inflammasome-driven erosive arthritis caused by unprenylated RHO GTPase signaling

open access: yesEMBO Molecular Medicine
Geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate, a non-sterol intermediate of the mevalonate pathway, serves as the substrate for protein geranylgeranylation, a process catalyzed by geranylgeranyl transferase I (GGTase-I).
