Bioenhancer‐Driven Modulation of Membrane Dynamics Improves B‐Vitamin Uptake in Caco‐2 Cells

ChemFoodChem, EarlyView.
Natural bioenhancers such as extracts from ginger, turmeric, black pepper, and spearmint increase the uptake of vitamins B1, B5, B6, and B7 in Caco‐2 cells. Micellized formulations further increase efficacy. These findings indicate that altered membrane fluidity contributes to enhanced cellular absorption, providing a new route to improve vitamin B ...

Biosynthesis and deficiencies of glycosylphosphatidylinositol

Proceedings of the Japan Academy, Series B, 2014
At least 150 different human proteins are anchored to the outer leaflet of the plasma membrane via glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI). GPI preassembled in the endoplasmic reticulum is attached to the protein's carboxyl-terminus as a post-translational modification by GPI transamidase. Twenty-two PIG (for Phosphatidyl Inositol Glycan) genes are involved

Identification of a novel regulatory mechanism for the disease associated protein, uPAR [PDF]

, 2014
Expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs), as determined through a series of statistical association studies collectively known as genome-wide association (GWA) studies, have provided us with a hypothesis free approach for the investigation into ...

Intravascular Large B-Cell Lymphoma Presenting as Dementia and Hemolytic Anemia [PDF]

, 2010
Background: Intravascular lymphoma (IVL) is an uncommon disease characterized by atypical lymphoid cells growing inside the lumina of small vessels. The diversity of clinical presentation due to possible involvement of multiple organs often complicates ...

Fast sleep spindles as a potential prognostic marker of developmental outcome in infantile epileptic spasms syndrome

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective The presence or absence of sleep spindles in patients with infantile epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS) has been proposed as a potential predictor of cognitive outcome; however, the validity of this predictor remains uncertain.

Engineering exosomal cargo loading via endogenous molecular pathways: Strategies to enhance therapeutic potential

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
This review illustrates how scientists engineer exosomes by hijacking the cell's own cargo‐sorting machinery. These strategies efficiently load therapeutic molecules into natural vesicles, creating powerful next‐generation drug delivery systems (Created with BioGDP.com).

Synthesis and structural characterization of a mimetic membrane-anchored prion protein [PDF]

, 2006
During pathogenesis of transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs) an abnormal form (PrPSc) of the host encoded prion protein (PrPC) accumulates in insoluble fibrils and plaques. The two forms of PrP appear to have identical covalent structures, but

1,10-Phenanthroline Inhibits Glycosylphosphatidylinositol Anchoring by Preventing Phosphoethanolamine Addition to Glycosylphosphatidylinositol Anchor Precursors [PDF]

Biochemistry, 2001
The glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) moiety is widely used to anchor a functionally diverse group of proteins to the plasma membrane of eukaryotes. In mammals, the predominant glycan structure of the GPI anchor consists of EthN-P-Man-Man-(EthN-P)Man-GlcN attached to an inositol phospholipid.

A Woman With Hypertriglyceridemia Who Acquired Antibody Against GPIHBP1

JACC: Case Reports, 2020
We report a case of a woman with primary hypertriglyceridemia caused by acquired glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored high-density lipoprotein binding protein 1 (GPIHBP1) autoantibody. This case highlights the necessity of detecting GPIHBP1 autoantibody
