Bisphenol A and Its Analogs: Toxicity Analysis in Mouse and Rat Liver—A Review
ABSTRACT Bisphenol A (BPA) and its analogs are widely recognized for their use in industry and plastic manufacturing. Consequently, humans and animals are continually exposed to various substances in their daily lives. This review evaluates the hepatic toxicity of BPA and its analogs in mice and rats, with particular emphasis on molecular mechanisms ...

Upregulated heme biosynthesis, an exploitable vulnerability in MYCN-driven leukemogenesis.
The increased heme biosynthesis long observed in leukemia was previously of unknown significance. Heme, synthesized from porphyrin precursors, plays a central role in oxygen metabolism and mitochondrial function, yet little is known about its role in ...

Illuminating Streptomyces: Raman Spectroscopy for Antibiotic Detection and Monitoring
Raman spectroscopy provides a non‐destructive, label‐free approach for studying the chemical diversity of Streptomyces. This review presents its application from detection to chemical characterization of secondary metabolites and monitoring of biosynthetic processes.

5-Aminolevulinic acid synthase (ALA synthase), the rate-controlling enzyme of hepatic heme biosynthesis, is feed-back repressed by heme. In the liver, chemicals such as barbiturates markedly induce ALA synthase, especially in the presence of partial ...

ABSTRACT Mitochondria provide multiple functions for cellular physiology. Transplantation of mitochondria isolated from gastric epithelial cells GES‐1 reducing the malignancy of gastric cancer cells AGS was previously reported. To elucidate the underlying mechanisms, TMT‐based proteomic analysis coupling ingenuity pathway software prediction revealed ...

Staphylococcus aureus HemX Modulates Glutamyl-tRNA Reductase Abundance To Regulate Heme Biosynthesis
Staphylococcus aureus is responsible for a significant amount of devastating disease. Its ability to colonize the host and cause infection is supported by a variety of proteins that are dependent on the cofactor heme.

Capture of long‐missing heme oxygenases that degrade both heme b and heme c
Abstract Heme serves as a crucial cofactor for hemoproteins and as an iron reservoir; yet, its accumulation is toxic, necessitating efficient degradation pathways. While the catabolism of free heme b is well characterized, the enzymes that disrupt its counterpart covalently tethered to a peptide (heme c) have remained elusive.

Hepatic 5-aminolevulinic acid synthase, the first and normally rate-controlling enzyme of heme biosynthesis, is regulated by heme. One of the known mechanisms whereby increased cellular heme regulates 5-aminolevulinic acid synthase is by decreasing the ...
