Virtual screening and directional preparation of xanthine oxidase inhibitory peptides derived from hemp seed protein

Food Science and Human Wellness
The traditional nutritional and medical hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) seed protein were explored for the discovery and directional preparation of new xanthine oxidase inhibitory (XOI) peptides by structure-based virtual screening, compound synthesis, in ...

NTAQ1 Promotes Hepatocellular Carcinoma Growth by Facilitating the Protein Degradation of the Tumor Suppressor PRDM2

Cancer Science, EarlyView.
Copy number variation analysis in The Cancer Genome Atlas identified NTAQ1 as a potential driver of HCC progression. NTAQ1 accelerates tumor growth by promoting the degradation of the tumor suppressor protein PRDM2, thereby impairing DNA repair and suppressing apoptosis. These findings indicate that NTAQ1 could be a valuable target for the treatment of

High Uric Acid Promotes Stem Leydig Cell Senescence by CCDC90B Mediates Mitochondrial Quality Control Imbalance

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
In hyperuricemia, uric acid inhibits CCDC90B ubiquitination degradation by binding to it. Excessive CCDC90B induces mitochondrial calcium overload, leading to mitochondrial quality control imbalance and ultimately resulting in SLC senescence and decreased testosterone levels.

KU80 suppresses endonuclease G activity to preserve genomic integrity

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Under normal conditions, EndoG remains restricted to mitochondria and the genome remains intact. When KU80 is absent, EndoG translocates into the nucleus, where it promotes DNA fragmentation and genomic instability. Thus, this work highlights the importance of KU80 in tightly controlling EndoG localization to preserve genome stability.

PEG400 regulates Falcipain 2 activity through an allosteric mechanism

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Falcipain‐2 can potentially be leveraged as a drug target due to its critical role as a haemoglobinase during the intra‐erythrocytic stage of Plasmodium falciparum. Here, we investigate the regulation of the proteolytic and haemoglobinase activity of falcipain‐2 in the presence of polyethylene glycol.

Antihypertensive Peptide ENWAAL Derived from Coix Glutelin and Its Effect on the Expression of SHR Renin–Angiotensin System

Biomolecules
Hypertension is one major risk factor of cardiovascular diseases, and RAS plays vital role during the development of hypertension. To obtain a novel antihypertensive peptide, Coix glutelin was hydrolyzed by trypsin and further separated by Sephadex G10 ...

Combating ageing beyond the cell: Emerging roles of extracellular proteostasis

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Ageing challenges the body's ability to maintain a stable and functional proteome, leading to protein damage and aggregation both inside and outside cells. This review focuses on the less well understood mechanisms of extracellular protein quality control and how they become disrupted in ageing, particularly in neurodegenerative diseases.

Diurnal Variations in Photochemical Energy Utilization and Osmotic Adjustments in Black Poplar Leaves Under Progressive Water Stress

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drought limits the productivity of fast‐growing woody crops, although the metabolic adjustments conferring water stress tolerance remain poorly understood. We investigated the responses of Populus nigra seedlings to water stress by integrating daily physiological measurements and NMR metabolomic analyses.
