Mitochondrial dynamics in autoimmune diseases

Rheumatology &Autoimmunity, EarlyView.
Roles of mitochondrial dynamic imbalance in autoimmune diseases. The imbalance of mitochondrial fusion and fission is involved in the occurrence and development of autoimmune diseases, including systemic lupus erythematosus, Sjogren's syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, myasthenia gravis, type 1 diabetes, psoriasis, and autoimmune ...

Real-Time In-Cell NMR Reveals the Intracellular Modulation of GTP-Bound Levels of RAS

Cell Reports, 2020
Summary: The small guanosine triphosphatase (GTPase) RAS serves as a molecular switch in signal transduction, and its mutation and aberrant activation are implicated in tumorigenesis.

Characterization of GMPP from Dendrobium huoshanense yielding GDP-D-mannose

Open Life Sciences, 2021
Dendrobium huoshanense has been used for centuries in China and its polysaccharides are the main active components in treating loss of body fluids resulting from fever and asthenic symptoms.

Specific ATP Detection Using Molecule‐Responsive DNA Nanopores

Small, EarlyView.
A molecule‐responsive DNA nanopore that provides open/close states by the interaction between an aptamer and analytes is rationally designed. This paper shows the applicability of DNA nanopores for stochastic nanopore sensing by revealing analyte‐concentration dependency, voltage‐dependency, and open/close mechanism.

Klebsiella pneumoniae contributes to altered cytotoxicity of thiopurines in vitro: Possible implications of biotransformation and bacterial metabolism

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and purpose Thiopurines are used in paediatric inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), but some patients do not respond. Because the gut microbiota influences drug efficacy and IBD‐patient microbiota presents increased bacterial abundance, we investigated the impact of candidate Enterobacteriaceae on drug cytotoxicity, metabolism and ...

Realizing the promise of ‘La Dolce Vita’ via chemical biology: glycan‐motif editing of sLeX for precision cancer therapeutics

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Modification of the glycocalyx via ‘glycan editing’ is distinguishable from ‘glycan‐motif editing’. The former broadly remodels the glycocalyx, whereas the latter inhibits expression only of a specific oligosaccharide motif within the glycocalyx by selectively dampening the bioactivity of the key glycosyltransferase(s) programming the biosynthesis of ...

Exome sequencing identifies a novel mutation of the GDI1 gene in a Chinese non-syndromic X-linked intellectual disability family

Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2017
X-linked intellectual disability (XLID) has been associated with various genes. Diagnosis of XLID, especially for non-syndromic ones (NS-XLID), is often hampered by the heterogeneity of this disease.

Y12C mutation disrupts IMPDH cytoophidia and alters cancer metabolism

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
IMPDH, the rate‐limiting enzyme for de novo GTP synthesis, can form polymers and cytoophidia to enhance activity by reducing GTP inhibition. In this study, a Y12C mutation in IMPDH2 was introduced via ABEmax base‐editing in human cancer cell lines to disrupt IMPDH polymerisation.

Profile of Nucleotides and Nucleosides in Taiwanese Human Milk

Pediatrics and Neonatology, 2011
Human milk–borne nucleotides and their related metabolic products have been reported to have important physiological roles in breast-fed infants. The purpose of this study was to measure the concentrations of free nucleotides and nucleosides in human ...

Late blight pathogen targets host Rab‐G3 GTPases with an atypical GTPase‐activating protein

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
The Phytophthora infestans RXLR effector Pi17063 functions as an atypical GTPase‐activating protein of host positive immune regulators, specifically the small GTPase NbRab‐G3. Pi17063 promotes the relocalization of NbRab‐G3 proteins to the cytoplasm, where they are inactive, disrupting the balance of the NbRab‐G3 switch and thus leading to enhanced ...
