Sites of control of hepatic cholesterol biosynthesis

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1966
An inhibition in the conversion of mevalonate to cholesterol has been demonstrated in liver of cholesterol-fed rats by both in vitro and in vivo methods.

Bakuchiol: From structural mimicry to systems‐level skin biology

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
Convergent outcomes, divergent mechanisms: bakuchiol vs. retinol. Bakuchiol exhibits functional convergence with retinol in improving extracellular matrix integrity, epidermal differentiation and barrier function, while operating through distinct mechanisms.

Mode of Action of Farnesol, the “Noble Unknown” in Particular in Ca2+ Homeostasis, and Its Juvenile Hormone-Esters in Evolutionary Retrospect

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2019
Farnesol, the sesquiterpenoid precursor of insect juvenile hormones (JH) that itself has JH activity, existed already long before animals and their hormones came into being.

When to consider an inborn error of immunity: clues for physicians

open access: yesInternal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract The term inborn errors of immunity (IEIs) refers to the rapidly expanding group of genetic disorders causing dysregulation of the immune system. With improved genetic testing in recent years, the number of defined IEIs and their range of phenotypic presentations has grown vastly, with more than 550 IEIs now described.

The Potential of Isoprenoids in Adjuvant Cancer Therapy to Reduce Adverse Effects of Statins

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2019
The mevalonate pathway provides sterols for membrane structure and nonsterol intermediates for the post-translational modification and membrane anchorage of growth-related proteins, including the Ras, Rac, and Rho GTPase family.

Tissue Resident Memory Cells: Friend or Foe?

open access: yesImmunology, EarlyView.
Tissue‐resident memory T cells (TRM cells) are specialised immune cells in barrier tissues like the lungs, skin and gut, providing rapid host defence and tumour surveillance. Their retention and differentiation are regulated by molecules such as CD69, CD103 and TGF‐β. Dysregulation of TRM cells can lead to chronic activation, driving conditions such as

Metabolomics Analysis of the Toxic Effects of the Production of Lycopene and Its Precursors

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Using cells as microbial factories enables highly specific production of chemicals with many advantages over chemical syntheses. A number of exciting new applications of this approach are in the area of precision metabolic engineering, which focuses on ...

Prostate Cancer and the Mevalonate Pathway

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences
Antineoplastic therapies for prostate cancer (PCa) have traditionally centered around the androgen receptor (AR) pathway, which has demonstrated a significant role in oncogenesis. Nevertheless, it is becoming progressively apparent that therapeutic strategies must diversify their focus due to the emergence of resistance mechanisms that the tumor ...

A Framework for Ethical and Clinical Governance Evaluation of Innovative Medicines in Children: A Mixed Methods Study

open access: yesJournal of Paediatrics and Child Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim The aim of this project was to develop and implement a working definition and ethical framework for use of innovative medicine in contemporary Australian paediatric practice. Methods A mixed methods research methodology was undertaken using a Delphi process to establish a definition of innovative medicines in paediatric patients.

Periodontal Medicine Rewired: Mechanisms Linking Periodontitis to Systemic Diseases

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This review reorganizes decades of research in periodontal medicine into a multi‐dimensional framework, illustrating how periodontitis influences systemic health through at least seven interconnected mechanisms. ABSTRACT Periodontitis is now recognized not merely as a localized oral condition but as a systemic disease linked to over 70 communicable and
