Dipeptidyl peptidase-IV (DPP-IV) inhibitory peptides from fermented foods exhibit great potential to alleviate type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). In this study, the DPP-IV inhibition activity of peptide extract from Chouguiyu was obviously enhanced after 4–

Nebulin: Does It Measure up as a Ruler? [PDF]
A recent study has shown that the giant protein nebulin maintains the lengths of actin filaments in striated muscle cells. Although on the surface, nebulin looks like a molecular ruler, it may be playing a more complex role in regulating dynamics at the ...

(a) C2C12 myoblasts were cultured and differentiated over 7 days until mature myotubes were formed. (b) Myotubes were treated with PEA (10 μM), IBU (100 μM) or VC for 36 h. Simultaneously, cells were incubated with D2O (deuterium oxide) for isotopic labeling.

CRISPR activation of NEB in fibroblasts, followed by RNA‐sequencing, documents spliceogenic effects of a NEB intronic variant. The assay enabled variant reclassification as likely pathogenic, providing molecular diagnosis in fetuses with Arthrogryposis multiplex congenita 6.

Understanding the functions of titin and nebulin [PDF]
Individual molecules of the giant muscle proteins titin and nebulin span large distances in the sarcomere. Approximately one-third of the titin molecule forms elastic filaments linking the ends of thick filaments to the Z-line.

ACTA1‐Related Adult‐Onset Scapuloperoneal Myopathy With Cores and Rods
We report a patient with an adult‐onset, slowly progressive, ACTA1‐related scapuloperoneal myopathy with cores and rods, determined by the heterozygous variant NM_001100.4:c.1001C > T, p.(Pro334Leu). The scapuloperoneal phenotype could represent a distinct subcategory, and the characterisation of this patient with a less severe, different clinical ...

Deciphering the Effect of Nemaline-Myopathy Nebulin Mutations on Desmin Binding [PDF]
Our research focuses on the role of intermediate proteins in human disease. Desmin, a major intermediate filament protein in muscle cells, is organized into a central coiledcoil alpha helical domain flanked by globular head and tail domains.

An integrated diagnosis strategy for congenital myopathies. [PDF]
Congenital myopathies are severe muscle disorders affecting adults as well as children in all populations. The diagnosis of congenital myopathies is constrained by strong clinical and genetic heterogeneity. Moreover, the majority of patients present with

In this study, we used Foxp3‐fatemapping mice to examine the cell lineage stability of Treg cells in pregnancy. Ex‐Foxp3 cells were identified in gestational tissues. However, Treg cells retained lineage stability with no increased ex‐Foxp3 generation, regardless of inflammatory challenges that induce preterm birth.
