New Transferrin Receptor‐Targeting Conjugate Effectively Delivers DNA to Mouse Brain
We present a novel RNA aptamer targeting the transferrin receptor (TfR), conjugated with DSPE lipid, which achieves remarkably efficient brain uptake, reaching brain‐to‐serum ratios as high as 6.5. Through fluorescence imaging and polymerase‐chain reaction analyses, we verify that this new conjugate successfully delivers a substantial amount of DNA ...

Molecular Dynamics Simulations of a Putative Novel Mechanism for UCP1‐Assisted FA Anion Transport
ABSTRACT Background Mitochondrial energy can be stored as ATP or released as heat by uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) during non‐shivering thermogenesis in brown adipose tissue. UCP1, located in the inner mitochondrial membrane, reduces the proton gradient in the presence of long‐chain fatty acids (FA).

Abstract Background and Purpose Whereas biased agonism on the 5‐HT2A receptor has been ascribed to hallucinogenic properties of psychedelics, no information about biased inverse agonism on this receptor is available. In schizophrenia, increased 5‐HT2A receptor constitutive activity has been suggested, highlighting the therapeutic relevance of inverse ...

ERNEST COST action overview on the (patho)physiology of GPCRs and orphan GPCRs in the nervous system
G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) are a large family of cell surface receptors that play a critical role in nervous system function by transmitting signals between cells and their environment. They are involved in many, if not all, nervous system processes, and their dysfunction has been linked to various neurological disorders representing important

Summary With the evolving landscape of diseases, heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) now encompasses more than half of all heart failure patients. This condition is clinically diverse, involving multiple organ systems and often occurring alongside the aging process.

A phased-addition strategy enhances the yield of RNAs obtained by in vitro transcription with modified transcriptional initiators [PDF]
RNA is active in multiple biological processes, not only as an information carrier but in catalyzing reactions and regulating gene expression. To understand the basis for this versatility, it is critical to establish structure-function relationships in ...
