OXidative Stress PREDictor: A Supervised Learning Approach for Annotating Cellular Oxidative Stress States in Inflammatory Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2025.
OxSpred, an eXtreme‐Gradient‐Boosting‐‐based supervised learning model, accurately annotates oxidative stress in innate immune cells at the single‐cell level, providing interpretable embeddings with significant biological relevance. This innovative tool revolutionizes the understanding of innate immune cell functions during inflammation and enhances ...

Harnessing the multidimensional bioactivity of Chaetomorpha aerea: Integrative phytochemical profiling with in vitro, in vivo, and in silico insights

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This study revealed the antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory, and antidiabetic potentials of the seaweed Chaetomortpha aerea using in vitro, in vivo, and in silico approaches along with phytochemical analysis using gas chromatography–mass spectrometry. ADME/T analysis was also carried out to confirm drug likeness and toxicity prediction.

ACBP and cholesterol differentially alter fatty acyl CoA utilization by microsomal ACAT

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2003
Microsomal acyl CoA:cholesterol acyltransferase (AC57) is stimulated in vitro and/or in intact cells by proteins that bind and transfer both substrates, cholesterol, and fatty acyl CoA.

Abnormal subcellular distribution of GLUT4 protein in obese and insulin-treated diabetic female dogs

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2004
The GLUT4 transporter plays a key role in insulin-induced glucose uptake, which is impaired in insulin resistance. The objective of the present study was to investigate the tissue content and the subcellular distribution of GLUT4 protein in 4- to 12-year-

Smooth microsomes. a trap for cholesteryl ester formed in hepatic microsomes.

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1980
Acyl-CoA:cholesterol acyltransferase was found predominantly (85%) in RNA-rich microsomes, the rest being in RNA-poor and smooth microsomes. However, the esterified cholesterol concentration of smooth microsomes was 2-fold greater than that of RNA-rich microsomes, suggesting the possibility of an interaction between RNA-rich and smooth microsomes.

Influence of major structural features of tocopherols and tocotrienols on their ω-oxidation by tocopherol-ω-hydroxylase

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2007
Human cytochrome P450 4F2 (CYP4F2) catalyzes the initial ω-hydroxylation reaction in the metabolism of tocopherols and tocotrienols to carboxychromanols and is, to date, the only enzyme shown to metabolize vitamin E.

Intricate Regulation of Sphingolipid Biosynthesis: An In‐Depth Look Into ORMDL‐Mediated Regulation of Serine Palmitoyltransferase

open access: yesBioEssays, EarlyView.
Multiple enzymes play a crucial role in regulating the biosynthesis of de novo sphingolipids. This regulation starts with the rate‐limiting enzyme, serine palmitoyltransferase (SPT), which catalyzes the first step of the pathway. Disruptions in this regulatory process can lead to serious diseases.
