Enterovirus infections in children

Pediatric Investigation, EarlyView.
Enteroviruses (EVs) are major pathogens causing a wide spectrum of diseases in children worldwide. This review summarizes the epidemiology, virology, viral replication, and virus‐host interactions of EVs. It also highlights current advances in clinical diagnosis, antiviral therapies, and vaccine development, providing insights into future strategies ...

Role of Heparan Sulfate 2-O-Sulfotransferase in Prostate Cancer Cell Proliferation, Invasion, and Growth Factor Signaling

Prostate Cancer, 2011
Heparan-sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs) are required for maximal growth factor signaling in prostate cancer progression. The degree of sulfate modification on the covalently attached heparan sulfate (HS) chains is one of the determining factors of growth ...

The Histidine 382 Residue Influences the Thermal Stability and Binding Propensity of the E2 Domain of Amyloid Precursor Protein

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The E2 domain of amyloid precursor protein (APP_E2) plays a central role in the protein's function. We reinvestigate how the missense mutation, ΔH382L, affects the domain's thermal stability and ligand binding propensity through differential scanning fluorometry.

Fibroblast EXT1-levels influence tumor cell proliferation and migration in composite spheroids.

PLoS ONE, 2012
BackgroundStromal fibroblasts are important determinants of tumor cell behavior. They act to condition the tumor microenvironment, influence tumor growth, support tumor angiogenesis and affect tumor metastasis. Heparan sulfate proteoglycans, present both

Proximity Proteomics Maps Candidate Cellular Uptake Pathways for Cell‐Derived Nanovesicles

Small Methods, EarlyView.
TurboID‐based dual‐sided proteomics compares mechanically generated cell‐derived nanovesicles with naturally secreted small extracellular vesicles. Vesicle proteomes define candidate interaction signatures, while recipient‐cell proximity labelling identifies exposure‐associated proteins.

Real‐World Safety and Effectiveness of Icatibant in Patients With Hereditary Angioedema (HAE): Post‐Marketing Surveillance in Japan

The Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hereditary angioedema (HAE) is a rare, autosomal dominant, life‐threatening disease characterized by recurrent attacks of swelling of the face, upper airway, gastrointestinal tract, limbs, and/or genitalia. Genetic mutations of the SERPING1 gene encoding the C1‐inhibitor (C1‐INH) plasma protein are associated with HAE‐C1INH.
