ABSTRACT Evidence suggests that the metabolism of inositol and its derivatives may be involved in various biological processes including salt tolerance, but there has been limited understanding. Ectopic expression of Gs5PTase8, an inositol polyphosphate 5‐phosphatase cloned from wild soybean (Glycine soja), significantly enhanced salt tolerance in ...

Vestigial Plastids in Parasitic Plants: Evolutionary Remnants or Adaptive Innovations?
ABSTRACT Throughout the evolutionary history of plants, chloroplasts originating from a cyanobacterial endosymbiosis have undergone remarkable adaptation and specialization, giving rise to a multitude of plastid types. The evolution toward parasitism in plants represents a particularly extreme case of such specialization.

ABSTRACT Equine melanocytic neoplasms (EMN) are aggressive tumours characterised by high metastatic potential and limited therapeutic options available. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying their progression remain poorly understood. This study therefore presents the integrative phosphoproteomic analysis of EMN tissue, with the aim of ...

Cloning and expression of human 75-kDa inositol polyphosphate-5-phosphatase.
Inositol polyphosphate-5-phosphatase (5-phosphatase) hydrolyzes inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate and thereby functions as a signal terminating enzyme in cellular calcium ion mobilization. A cDNA encoding human platelet 5-phosphatase has been isolated by screening for beta-galactosidase fusion proteins that bind to ...

Abstract Chronic pain, marked by nociceptive sensitization and maladaptive neuroplasticity, affects 30% of the global population with escalating socioeconomic burdens. Epidemiological data show a 2‐3‐fold increase in neuropsychiatric co‐morbidities among individuals with chronic pain, where epigenetic dysregulation serves as a key mechanism linking ...

Immune involvement in neuropsychiatric disorders: Insights from single‐cell transcriptomic studies
Neuropsychiatric disorders pose profound challenges to both research and treatment, largely due to their clinical heterogeneity and the limited understanding of their underlying biological mechanisms. While bulk RNA sequencing (bulk RNA‐seq) has been widely used to study gene expression, it cannot resolve cell‐type‐specific signals or detect rare ...

The Isolation and Characterization of a cDNA Encoding Phospholipid-specific Inositol Polyphosphate 5-Phosphatase [PDF]
We report the cDNA cloning and characterization of a novel human inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase (5-phosphatase) that has substrate specificity unlike previously described members of this large gene family. All previously described members hydrolyze water soluble inositol phosphates.

Platinum‐resistant patients exhibited ascites suffer from immune exhaustion and enriched in lipids, which is used by tumor cells as energy resources to counteract platinum damage through active macropinocytosis and lipid catabolism. These resistant features in ascites can also predict, to a certain extent, the efficacy of platinum‐based therapy in ...

Tumor‐associated macrophages are the most abundant immune cells in the tumor microenvironment, driving malignant progression and treatment resistance. This review summarizes the protumor mechanisms of TAMs (including phagocytosis modulation, metabolic reprogramming, exosomal communication, and immune interactions), evaluates three major strategies ...

Molecular Characterization of an Arabidopsis Gene Encoding a Phospholipid-Specific Inositol Polyphosphate 5-Phosphatase [PDF]
Abstract Phosphoinositides are important molecules that serve as second messengers and bind to a complex array of proteins modulating their subcellular location and activity. The enzymes that metabolize phosphoinositides can in some cases serve to terminate the signaling actions of phosphoinositides.
