Engineering a Single Amino Acid Bionanozyme for Ultrasensitive Detection of Biomarkers: A WHO‐REASSURE‐ Aligned Approach

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A unique 2D bionanozyme, engineered from a single amino acid and copper ions, demonstrates peroxidase‐mimicking catalytic activity. This efficient and simple bionanozyme allows for ultrasensitive, equipment‐free visual detection of key biomarkers in both test and real samples, meeting the WHO‐REASSURE standards for practical diagnostic applications ...

The leucine biosynthetic pathway is crucial for adaptation to iron starvation and virulence in Aspergillus fumigatus

open access: yesVirulence, 2019
In contrast to mammalia, fungi are able to synthesize the branched-chain amino acid leucine de novo. Recently, the transcription factor LeuB has been shown to cross-regulate leucine biosynthesis, nitrogen metabolism and iron homeostasis in Aspergillus ...

Mitochondrial leucine tRNA level and PTCD1 are regulated in response to leucine starvation [PDF]

open access: yesAmino Acids, 2014
Pentatricopeptide repeat domain protein 1 (PTCD1) is a novel human protein that was recently shown to decrease the levels of mitochondrial leucine tRNAs. The physiological role of this regulation, however, remains unclear. Here we show that amino acid starvation by leucine deprivation significantly increased the mRNA steady-state levels of PTCD1 in ...

Advanced Oral Delivery Systems for Nutraceuticals

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Emerging delivery technologies are explored to overcome barriers to oral nutraceutical absorption. Traditional carriers are compared with novel platforms including biodegradable polymers, MOFs, MPNs, and 3D printing. These systems enhance bioavailability, control release, and enable personalized nutrition.

Incorporation in vitro of labeled amino acids into proteins of rabbit reticuloytes [PDF]

open access: yes, 1952
Continuing our work on the incorporation of labeled amino acids into proteins (1), we have begun a study of the incorporation in vitro of C14-labeled glycine, L-histidine, L-leucine, and L-lysine into the proteins of rabbit reticulocytes.

Potential uptake of dissolved organic matter by seagrasses and macroalgae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Dissolved organic nitrogen (DON) acts as a large reservoir of fixed nitrogen. Whereas DON utilization is common in the microbial community, little is known about utilization by macrophytes.

Reviewing the Effects of l-Leucine Supplementation in the Regulation of Food Intake, Energy Balance, and Glucose Homeostasis

open access: yesNutrients, 2015
Leucine is a well-known activator of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR). Because mTOR signaling regulates several aspects of metabolism, the potential of leucine as a dietary supplement for treating obesity and diabetes mellitus has been ...

Nanocarrier‐Based Targeting of Pattern Recognition Receptors as an Innovative Strategy for Enhancing Sepsis Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This review highlights recent progress in nanocarriers targeting pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), including Toll‐like and NOD‐like receptors, for enhancing the treatment of bacterial sepsis and related complications. These nanomedicines deliver antibiotics and anti‐inflammatory agents while modulating immune responses.

Targeting the muscle for the treatment and prevention of hepatic encephalopathy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Muscle mass loss or sarcopenia is a principle component of malnutrition which prevails in 65–90% of patients with end-stage liver disease [1]. Intuitively, the roots of malnutrition play a precipitating role in muscle catabolism.

N-Acetyl-L-Leucine Accelerates Vestibular Compensation after Unilateral Labyrinthectomy by Action in the Cerebellum and Thalamus

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
An acute unilateral vestibular lesion leads to a vestibular tone imbalance with nystagmus, head roll tilt and postural imbalance. These deficits gradually decrease over days to weeks due to central vestibular compensation (VC).
