Effects of therapeutic ultrasound on the nuclear envelope and nuclear pore complexes [PDF]

, 2013
The effects of acoustic waves on membrane structures, and any resulting consequences of this treatment on membrane subunit structures, remain poorly understood, as are the principals of related clinical effects.

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

Membrane repair: Ca 2+ -elicited lysosomal exocytosis [PDF]

Current Biology, 2001
Cells in exposed positions are subject to injury and therefore need membrane repair mechanisms. Ca(2+) entry inevitably follows membrane rupture and recent studies indicate that this elicits repair via Ca(2+)-activated exocytosis of lysosomes, regulated by lysosomal synaptotagmin VII.

ESCRT-III–dependent membrane repair blocks ferroptosis [PDF]

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2020
Ferroptosis is a form of regulated cell death that is triggered by iron accumulation and lipid peroxidation. Although plasma membrane injuries represent an important event in cell death, the impact of membrane repair mechanisms on ferroptosis remains unidentified.

Inflammation-induced DNA damage and damage-induced inflammation: a vicious cycle [PDF]

, 2014
Inflammation is the ultimate response to the constant challenges of the immune system by microbes, irritants or injury. The inflammatory cascade initiates with the recognition of microorganism-derived pathogen associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and ...

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Annexin-A6 in Membrane Repair of Human Skeletal Muscle Cell: A Role in the Cap Subdomain

Cells, 2020
Defects in membrane repair contribute to the development of some muscular dystrophies, highlighting the importance to decipher the membrane repair mechanisms in human skeletal muscle. In murine myofibers, the formation of a cap subdomain composed notably

Photocatalytic oxygen evolution and antibacterial biomimetic repair membrane for diabetes wound repair via HIF1-α pathway

Materials Today Bio, 2023
Diabetic wounds always have puzzled patients and caused serious social problems. Due to the lack of local blood vessels, severe hypoxia is generated in the defect area, which is an essential reason for the difficulty of wound healing. We have constructed

In vitro and in vivo validation of human and goat chondrocyte labeling by green fluorescent protein lentivirus transduction [PDF]

, 2010
We investigated whether human articular chondrocytes can be labeled efficiently and for long-term with a green fluorescent protein (GFP) lentivirus and whether the viral transduction would influence cell proliferation and tissue-forming capacity.
