Structural and functional analysis of Bacillus sarcosine oxidase and its activity toward cyclic imino acids

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Sarcosine oxidase from Bacillus sp. (SoxB) recognizes l‐proline (l‐Pro), d‐proline (d‐Pro), and l‐thioproline (l‐Tpr) as minor substrates. In this study, we measured their absorption spectra, determined the crystal structures of their enzyme complexes, and performed site‐directed mutagenesis of key residues.

Use of Estimating Equations for Dosing Antimicrobials in Patients with Acute Kidney Injury Not Receiving Renal Replacement Therapy. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Acute kidney injury (AKI) can potentially lead to the accumulation of antimicrobial drugs with significant renal clearance. Drug dosing adjustments are commonly made using the Cockcroft-Gault estimate of creatinine clearance (CLcr). The Modified Jelliffe

Tryptophan metabolite atlas uncovers organ, age, and sex‐specific variations

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Tryptophan metabolites were analyzed across twelve organs, the central nervous system, and serum in male and female mice at three life stages. We found tissue‐, sex‐, and age‐specific differences, including increased indole‐3‐pyruvate and kynurenine in aging males.

Changes in kidney function in a population with essential hypertension in real life settings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Introduction. Hypertension has been identified as one of the commonest modifiable determinants for chronic kidney disease progression. A variety of antihypertensive drugs are available and their effect on kidney function has been investigated by a ...

Diabetes‐induced vascular calcification is associated with low pyrophosphate and its oral supplementation prevents calcification in diabetic mice

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Induction of diabetes in three different mouse strains uniformly resulted in an increase in TNAP activity and a reduction in pyrophosphate (PPi) in the circulation. Inhibition of TNAP restored plasma PPi. Diabetes‐induced calcification in the media layer of the aorta was detected only in the Abcc6−/− strain, which is predisposed to ectopic ...

Long-term treatment of evocalcet in hemodialysis patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism: a five-year prospective cohort study in 147 Japanese patients

open access: yesRenal Replacement Therapy
Background Cinacalcet hydrochloride (cinacalcet), an oral calcimimetics for secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT), has been widely used worldwide. In contrast, evocalcet, an improved derivative of cinacalcet, was approved only in Japan in 2018 and has not

Calcium‐sensing receptor induces the apoptosis of chondrocytes in cooperation with phosphate transporter

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Excess Ca2+ ions activate the Calcium‐Sensing Receptor (CaSR), which subsequently drives the uptake of excess inorganic phosphate (Pi) via the Pi transporter (Pit−1) in chondrocytes. This mechanism causes a toxic increase in intracellular Pi concentration, ultimately leading to chondrocyte apoptosis and pathological mineralization. Excess extracellular
