Glucocerebrosidase deficiency promotes protein aggregation through dysregulation of extracellular vesicles. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2018
Mutations in the glucosylceramidase beta (GBA) gene are strongly associated with neurodegenerative diseases marked by protein aggregation. GBA encodes the lysosomal enzyme glucocerebrosidase, which breaks down glucosylceramide.

SrfJ, a salmonella type III secretion system effector regulated by PhoP, RcsB, and IolR. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Virulence-related type III secretion systems are present in many Gram-negative bacterial pathogens. These complex devices translocate proteins, called effectors, from the bacterium into the eukaryotic host cell. Here, we identify the product of srfJ, a

Heterologous Production of Cyprosin B in Nicotiana benthamiana: Unveiling the Role of the Plant‐Specific Insert Domain in Protein Function and Subcellular Localisation

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 1, Page 256-272, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Plant systems have gained increased attention as an alternative platform for producing heterologous proteins, particularly for industrially relevant proteins. The Cynara cardunculus L. flower extract is traditionally used in cheese production across Mediterranean countries due to its milk‐clotting properties.

Differential Quantitative Proteomics of Human Microvascular Endothelial Cells 1 by iTRAQ Reveals Palladin to be a New Biomarker During TGF-β1 Induced Endothelial Mesenchymal Transition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The study uses global quantitative proteomics to investigate the molecular mechanisms behind the induction of endothelial-mesenchymal transition (EndMT) by transforming growth factor–β (TGF-β).

Protein‐Derived Signal Peptides Induced by Agrobacterium Infection Promote the Secretion of Recombinant Proteins in Nicotiana benthamiana

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 1, Page 187-203, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Plants are promising next‐generation hosts for recombinant protein production; however, major challenges remain with regard to enhancing the efficiency of downstream processing, particularly in the removal of cellular residues and purification of the expressed proteins.

A double-hit in vivo model of GBA viral microRNA-mediated downregulation and human alpha-synuclein overexpression demonstrates nigrostriatal degeneration

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2022
Preclinical and clinical studies support a strong association between mutations in the GBA1 gene that encodes beta-glucocerebrosidase (GCase) (EC 3.2.1.45; glucosylceramidase beta) and Parkinson's disease (PD).

Progress of non‐motor symptoms in early‐onset Parkinson's disease

open access: yesIbrain, Volume 11, Issue 4, Page 422-438, Winter 2025.
This study reviews the research progress related to non‐motor symptoms (NMS) in patients with early onset Parkinson's disease (EOPD), including neuropsychiatric symptoms, autonomic dysfunction, sleep disorders, and sensory disorders and also summarizes the characteristics of NMS in the genetic form of Parkinson's disease (PD).

1-O-acylceramides are natural components of human and mouse epidermis[S]

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2013
The lipid-rich stratum corneum functions as a barrier against pathogens and desiccation inter alia by an unbroken meshwork of extracellular lipid lamellae.

Genome-Wide Expression Analysis in Drosophila Reveals Genes Controlling Circadian Behavior [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
In Drosophila, a number of key processes such as emergence from the pupal case, locomotor activity, feeding, olfaction, and aspects of mating behavior are under circadian regulation.

Parkinson's Disease and Cancer: Mechanistic Insights and Therapeutic Opportunities From Cancer Neuroscience

open access: yesMedComm – Oncology, Volume 4, Issue 4, December 2025.
Parkinson's disease (PD) and glioma are neurological disorders with distinct and even opposing mechanisms: α‐synuclein deposition and neuronal loss in PD versus glial cell malignancy in glioma. Despite these differences, their contrasting pathologies highlight multiple therapeutic targets.
