Folding, misfolding, and regulation of intracellular traffic of G protein‐coupled receptors involved in the hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal axis

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background G protein‐coupled receptors are a large and functionally diverse family of membrane receptors involved in a number of biological processes. Like other proteins, G protein‐coupled receptors need to be properly folded in order to traffic to the plasma membrane and interact with agonist.

Sodium butyrate ameliorates renal tubular lipid accumulation through a protein phosphatase 2A/transcription factor EB axis in diabetic nephropathy

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Extensive evidence indicates that lipid accumulation causes renal tubular injury, which further contributes to diabetic nephropathy (DN) progression. Short‐chain fatty acids (SCFAs) play an important role in the maintenance of cellular metabolic health.

Novel therapeutic targets for chronic visceral pain in gastrointestinal disorders

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Chronic visceral pain imposes a major clinical challenge in gastroenterology and beyond, profoundly impacting patients' quality of life. However, limited understanding of its complex, multifaceted pathophysiology, encompassing both peripheral and central mechanisms, continues to impede the development of effective management strategies.

Adhesion of Immunoglobulins to Band3 Promotes Increased Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate in Multiple Myeloma

open access: yesCell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Decreased sialic acid increases the adhesion of RBC membranes to immunoglobulins leading to an increased erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR). The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) damages the sialic acid glycosyl chains on the surface of RBC membrane proteins, causing the membrane proteins to be overexposed to the plasma environment due to the

Evolutionary divergence and functional insights into the heteromeric cis‐prenyltransferase of Paramecium tetraurelia

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Heteromeric cis‐prenyltransferases (CPT) are indispensable for dolichol synthesis and protein N‐glycosylation in most eukaryotes. The catalytic subunits are strongly conserved throughout evolution, in contrast to the evolutionarily variable accessory subunits. The POC1 protein from Paramecium tetraurelia is the smallest identified CPT‐accessory subunit
