Ocular Manifestations of Metabolic Syndrome: A Systemic Vascular Phenotype

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Context Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is defined by central obesity, insulin resistance, hypertension and dyslipidemia. MetS affects over one‐third of US adults. Beyond its cardiovascular burden, MetS has clinically relevant associations with ocular health and may contribute to a systemic vascular and neuro‐metabolic phenotype involving the retina,

Dyslipidaemia, Chronic Kidney Disease and Diabetes Mellitus: A Triple Threat to Cardiovascular Health

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Diabetes mellitus (DM) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) frequently coexist and together create a ‘triple threat’ with dyslipidaemia, enhancing the risk for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) leads to altered lipid metabolism through insulin resistance, inflammation and oxidative stress resulting in an ...

Prebiotic aqueous reactions catalyzed by native nickel without hydrogen

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Serpentinizing (H2‐producing) hydrothermal vents are candidate environments for metabolic origin. They generate highly reducing conditions that convert CO2 to formate and methane in abiotic reactions resembling reactions of the acetyl‐CoA pathway of CO2 fixation. They also contain natural catalysts. Native nickel (Ni0), like Fe0, Co0, and their alloys,

Phenotypic characterization of Arabidopsis thaliana mutants that alleviate root growth defects in a vitamin B6 biosynthesis mutant

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Vitamin B6 is a critical molecule for plant metabolism and development. Rsr4‐1, a loss‐of‐function mutant in a vitamin B6 biosynthesis gene, has a distinct short root phenotype. Here we describe five novel suppressor mutants with an rsr4‐1 background that have normalized root growth and distinct phenotypic and molecular characteristics, representing a ...

Blocking protein quality control degradation leads to structural stabilization of DHFR indel variants

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Blocking protein quality control degradation by deleting the E3 ligases Ubr1 or San1 stabilizes many DHFR insertion and deletion variants that are otherwise partially unfolded. These hypomorphic variants regain folding at lower temperatures or upon methotrexate binding, revealing that PQC degradation can remove proteins that are still functionally ...

Physiological media and oxygen levels modulate cancer hallmarks in cultured breast cancer cells

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
MCF7 breast cancer cells were cultured in standard conditions (18% O2 and DMEM) and physiological conditions (5% O2 and Plasmax, a medium modeled after the human plasma metabolome). A combined transcriptomic and proteomic approach was used to identify gene expression signatures at the mRNA and protein levels upstream of functional enrichment analyses ...

Metabolic mRNA insufficiency of single cells: Implications for drug targeting and resistance

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Because none of the single‐cell mRNA profiles of growing cell populations encoded any pathway towards cell growth, we used cluster‐averaged transcriptomes to estimate protein‐constrained Vmax's and identify (combinations of) subpopulation‐specific targets to overcome drug resistance. (Graphical Abstract was created in BioRender. Liu, Y. (2026). https://

A comprehensive study on ferredoxin isoforms in the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Ferredoxins are small FeS cluster‐containing proteins that play a central role in distributing electrons within the cell. The cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 contains several ferredoxin isoforms and their biophysical properties (UV/Vis and EPR spectra, Em potential), expression patterns, and interactions with the electron donors photosystem I

UbiB proteins mediate an ATP‐dependent decarboxylation step in bacterial ubiquinone biosynthesis

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
UbiB proteins are atypical protein kinase‐like enzymes essential for ubiquinone biosynthesis. Here, we demonstrate that bacterial UbiB proteins catalyze the O2‐dependent decarboxylation of ubiquinone precursors, a process linked to their ATPase activity.
