Multi‐Targeting Ligands as Prospective Therapeutics for Alzheimer's Disease, a Prevalent Neurodegenerative Disorder: Mechanistic Insights, Emerging Targets and Drug Discovery Campaigns

open access: yesMedicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a debilitating neurodegenerative condition characterized by progressive cognitive impairment, memory deterioration, and neuronal dysfunction. Its complex pathophysiology involves multiple interlinked processes, including amyloid‐β (Aβ) aggregation, tau hyperphosphorylation, oxidative stress, neuroinflammation ...

O-GlcNAcylation: A Sweet Hub in the Regulation of Glucose Metabolism in Health and Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
O-GlcNAcylation is a posttranslational modification ruled by the activity of a single pair of enzymes, O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT) and O-GlcNAcase (OGA).

Production of Glycopeptide Derivatives for Exploring Substrate Specificity of Human OGA Toward Sugar Moiety. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
O-GlcNAcase (OGA) is the only enzyme responsible for removing N-acetyl glucosamine (GlcNAc) attached to serine and threonine residues on proteins. This enzyme plays a key role in O-GlcNAc metabolism.

The effect of peri-conception hyperglycaemia and the involvement of the hexosamine biosynthesis pathway in mediating oocyte and embryo developmental competence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The environment that the oocyte is exposed to during the peri-conception period can have a significant impact on oocyte developmental competence (the ability of the oocyte to support fertilisation and subsequent embryo development) and the long-term ...

OGA Inhibition By GlcNAc-Selenazoline [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The title compound, which differs from the powerful O-GlcNAcase (OGA) inhibitor GlcNAc-thiazoline only at the chalcogen atom (Se for S), is a much weaker inhibitor in a direct OGA assay.

Hyperglycaemia‐induced reactive oxygen species production in cardiac ventricular myocytes differs among mammals

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend In rat and human adult ventricular myocytes, acute hyperglyceaemia (Glucose) causes increased glucose uptake (via GLUT) leading to O‐GlcNAcylation of CaMKII at Ser280, such that CaMKII activates NADPH oxidase 2 (NOX2) to increase cytosolic reactive oxygen species (ROS). That perturbs the ROS to Antioxidant (AntiOx) balance.

Modulation of synaptic transmission through O-GlcNAcylation

open access: yesMolecular Brain
O-GlcNAcylation is a posttranslational modification where N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) is attached and detached from a serine/threonine position by two enzymes: O-GlcNAc transferase and O-GlcNAcase.

O-GlycNacylation Remission Retards the Progression of Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease

open access: yesCells, 2022
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a metabolic disease spectrum associated with insulin resistance (IR), from non-alcoholic fatty liver (NAFL) to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

Thio-linked UDP-peptide conjugates as O-GlcNAc transferase inhibitors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT) is an essential glycosyltransferase that installs the O-GlcNAc post-translational modification on the nucleocytoplasmic proteome. We report the development of S-linked UDP–peptide conjugates as potent bisubstrate OGT inhibitors.

Post‐translational Modifications in Proteins: Prediction Methods, Biological Functions, and Diseases

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2026.
Posttranslational modifications (PTMs) serve as rapid and reversible molecular switches that reshape protein activity, stability, and interactomes, thereby governing virtually all physiological cues ranging from signal transduction to epigenetic memory. Mass spectrometry‐based proteomics has substantially expanded our understanding of PTM emergence and
