A Lipid‐Conjugation Strategy for Intracellular Reactive Oxygen Species Control in Hepatic Cells

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A lipid conjugation strategy anchors a manganese Salen complex within phospholipid membranes, yielding stable, catalytically active liposomes. These lipid–metal assemblies efficiently degrade reactive oxygen species (ROS) and enable intracellular redox control in steatotic HepaRG cells, offering a precise route to biomimetic antioxidant design ...

Heme‐NO Dilates Arteries via Mobilization of NO Moieties From an Intracellular NO Store Within Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Nitrosyl heme emerges as an extracellular nitrodilator that dilates arteries without crossing the cell membrane. Instead, heme‐NO mobilizes NO moieties from a preformed intracellular NO store within vascular smooth muscle, providing both functional and chemical evidence for the NANOS model, revealing a previously unrecognized mechanism of arterial ...

Glutathione reductase activity with an oxidized methylated glutathione analog

Journal of Enzyme Inhibition and Medicinal Chemistry, 2013
The activity of glutathione reductase with an unnatural analog of oxidized glutathione was explored. The analog, L-γ-glutamyl-2-methyl-L-cysteinyl-glycine disulfide, places an additional methyl group on the alpha position of each of the central cysteine residues, which significantly increases steric bulk near the disulfide bond.

A Crystalline and Thermally Stable Selenocysteine Selenenic Acid

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The long‐sought catalytic intermediate of selenoproteins, selenocysteine selenenic acid (Sec–SeOH), is isolated for the first time at ambient temperature. A bioinspired selenopeptide sequence encapsulated within a protective molecular cradle and an oxidant‐free route from selenenyl iodide (Sec–SeI) enable the isolation of Sec–SeOH. Contrary to the long‐

Engineering Approaches to Modify Immunomodulatory Functions of Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (MSCs): Tissue Regeneration and Clinical Application

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) show promise for treating immune‐related disorders through immunomodulation and tissue regeneration. This review gives a brief overview of current clinical approval of MSC therapies. It also discussed how bioengineering, including genetic modification, biomaterial delivery, extracellular vesicles, and iPSC‐derived MSCs,

Glutathione Reductase Is Inhibited by Acetaminophen-glutathione Conjugate In Vitro

Physiological Research, 2010
The aim of the present work was to investigate a new mechanism likely contributing to the toxic action of acetaminophen, especially to explore the possible inhibition of glutathione reductase through an acetaminophen-glutathione conjugate (APAP-SG). APAP-SG conjugate was synthesized by organic synthesis and purified by column chromatography.

Materials‐Guided Gene‐Ionizable Lipid Nanoparticles to Reverse Iron‐Associated Immune Resistance in Renal Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Iron overload is a common metabolic disturbance in cancer and contributes to poor outcomes in renal cell carcinoma (RCC), yet its effects on the tumour immune microenvironment remain unclear. Here we identify a previously unrecognized immunosuppressive axis in which iron overload downregulates the palmitoyltransferase ZDHHC12 in CD8+ T cells ...
