YIPFα1A expression is regulated by multilayered molecular mechanisms

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
YIPFα1A, a five‐pass Golgi protein, is regulated at multiple layers. (1) Rare‐codon enrichment drives translation‐coupled mRNA decay. (2) A proximal 3′‐UTR element stabilizes mRNA. (3) A distal 3′‐UTR element included by alternate poly(A) site usage represses translation, which can be overridden by the proximal 3′‐UTR element.

Carbohydrate induced modulation of cell membrane: II. Spin label study of fluidity changes in peripheral blood lymphocyte membrane

open access: yes, 1996
This paper reports for the first time, that binding of various mono-, di-, and trisaccharides to membrane lectins reduces the rotational motion of membrane proteins and lipids indicating a decrease in membrane fluidity as studied by EPR spectroscopy ...

Lipid fluidity and membrane protein dynamics

open access: yesBioscience Reports, 1987
Membrane fluidity plays an important role in cellular functions. Membrane proteins are mobile in the lipid fluid environment; lateral diffusion of membrane proteins is slower than expected by theory, due to both the effect of protein crowding in the membrane and to constraints from the aqueous matrix.

Sudden anaerobization in Amphibacillus xylanus increases intracellular labile ferrous iron and inhibits cell growth

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Abruptly changing from aerobic to anaerobic conditions (sudden anaerobization) induced growth inhibition and a significant increase in intracellular labile ferrous iron in the aerotolerant anaerobe Amphibacillus xylanus. We found that free flavins mediate efficient electron transfer from NADH to ferric iron under anaerobic conditions, suggesting that ...

D-myo-inositol derivatives alter liposomal membrane fluidity

open access: yes, 1998
We investigated the effect on membrane fluidity induced by D-myo-inositol derivatives (IP3, IP4, IP5, IP6). Fluidity was determined as the anisotropy of fluorescence polarisation fi om liposome model membranes labelled with DPH (1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5 ...

Cyclic azapeptide CD36 ligand attenuates cardiac injury and reduces long‐chain fatty acid accumulation after myocardial ischemia–reperfusion in mice

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In a murine model of myocardial ischemia and reperfusion (MI/R), the CD36 azapeptide ligand MPE‐298 reduces cardiac injury and transiently lowers left ventricular long‐chain fatty acids (LCFAs) accumulation 3 h after reperfusion, accompanied by a decrease of oxidative stress and inflammation‐associated genes' expression in the heart and adipose tissue.

UiO‐66 metal–organic frameworks in biomedicine: From structural tunability to bioimaging, photodiagnostics, and photodynamic cancer therapy

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
UiO‐66(Zr) metal–organic frameworks are chemically stable, biocompatible, and highly tunable nanomaterials. Their modular structure enables controlled drug delivery, multimodal bioimaging, and light‐activated photodynamic therapy, supporting integrated diagnostic and therapeutic (theranostic) applications in cancer and biomedical research.

Oxidative and drug-induced alterations in brush border membrane hemileaflet fluidity, functional consequences for glucose transport

open access: yes, 2001
Oxidation of biological membranes has been suggested as a major pathological process in a variety of disease states including intestinal ischemia and inflammatory bowel disease.

Hydrostatic pressure activates HIF‐1α via β‐catenin to promote stemness in breast cancer cells

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
To mimic the elevated intestinal fluid pressure in breast cancers, we loaded human breast cancer cells (MCF‐7, MDA‐MB‐453, and BT‐474) to 50 mmHg hydrostatic pressure. Hydrostatic pressure exposure upregulated HIF‐1α and induced stemness in MCF‐7 and BT‐474 cells.

Regulation of polymorphonuclear leukocyte membrane fluidity: effect of cytoskeletal modification

open access: yes, 1994
We previously demonstrated that the f-actin cytoskeleton modulates oxygen radical production associated with polymorphonuclear leukocyte (PMN) oxidative burst activity.
