The proteasome is a major protein degradation machinery with essential and diverse biological functions. Upon induction by cytokines, proteasome subunits β1, β2, and β5 are replaced by β1i/LMP2, β2i/MECL-1, and β5i/LMP7, resulting in the formation of an ...

Branched‐chain amino acids (BCAAs) can be critically involved in skeletal muscle growth and body energy homeostasis. Skeletal muscle growth is a complex process; some muscle‐specific microRNAs (miRNAs) are involved in the regulation of muscle thickening and muscle mass.

Effective therapy of polymyositis in mice via selective inhibition of the immunoproteasome
Using a murine model of polymyositis, known as C protein‐induced myositis, we showed that immunoproteasome inhibitors reduced the lesions and inflammatory infiltrates in the muscular tissue while normalizing grip strength. LMP7‐deficient mice did not develop the disease.

Abstract Compelling evidence showed that both nucleotide‐binding oligomerization domain‐like receptor family, pyrin domain‐containing protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasomes and the immunoproteasome participate in neuroinflammatory responses in cerebral ischaemia injury. Moreover, inhibition of either NLRP3 inflammasomes or the immunoproteasome attenuates both

Prevention of colitis-associated cancer by selective targeting of immunoproteasome subunit LMP7 [PDF]
Chronic inflammation is a well-known risk factor in development of intestinal tumorigenesis, although the exact mechanisms underlying development of colitis-associated cancer (CAC) still remain obscure. The activity and function of immunoproteasome has been extensively analyzed in the context of inflammation and infectious diseases.

Denervation-Induced Activation of the Standard Proteasome and Immunoproteasome. [PDF]
The standard 26S proteasome is responsible for the majority of myofibrillar protein degradation leading to muscle atrophy. The immunoproteasome is an inducible form of the proteasome.

In this study, two Listeria bacteriophages, LMP1 and LMP7, were isolated from chicken feces as a means of biocontrol of L. monocytogenes. Both bacteriophages had a lytic effect on L. monocytogenes ATCC 7644, 15313, 19114, and 19115.

The role of immunoproteasomes in modulating neuro‐inflammation in Alzheimer’s Disease [PDF]
Abstract Background The immunoproteasome (IP) is the inducible form of the constitutive 20S proteasome upregulated in immune cells. The IP consists of 3 inducible β subunits (β1i – LMP2, β2i – MECL1, and β5i – LMP7), which generate MHC‐I compatible peptides.
