Diltiazem N‐oxide, a novel ischaemia‐activated prodrug, prevents ischaemia‐induced ventricular fibrillation without off‐target adverse effects

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Ventricular fibrillation (VF) in coronary heart disease accounts for up to 70% of sudden cardiac death. We examined whether diltiazem N‐oxide (DNO) has ischaemia‐selective antiarrhythmic activity. Experimental Approach Randomised and blinded experiments were performed in rat isolated hearts and in anaesthetised rats to ...

Agrimoniin Alleviates Ferroptosis in Cold‐Stored DCD Liver Grafts Through Activation of the Nrf‐2 Pathway

open access: yesCell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Supplementing the liver preservation solution with agrimoniin protects donation after cardiac death (DCD) grafts by activating the Nrf‐2 pathway. This reduces ferroptosis, oxidative stress, and inflammation during cold storage, significantly improving graft viability.

Plant organelle C‐to‐U RNA editing factors can operate successfully in yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) as an easily amenable eukaryotic system for their functional analysis

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Plant‐type pentatricopeptide repeat proteins capable of C‐to‐U RNA editing perform faithfully when expressed in a new heterologous system, the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. They were tested with constitutive and inducible expression and with a set of different solubility tags. PPR56, PPR65, and PPR78 from P.

Phycocyanobilin biosynthesis in Galdieria sulphuraria requires isomerization of phycoerythrobilin synthesized by bilin reductases

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The biosynthesis of bilins, tetrapyrroles essential for light harvesting and sensing, is performed by specific enzymes (FDBRs). In Galdieria sulphuraria, both phycobiliprotein types bind phycocyanobilin, despite lacking the canonical synthesizing gene PCYA. Instead, PEBA and PEBB are encoded, producing phycoerythrobilin, proposed to be later isomerized

Coenzyme A mitigates cystine‐deprivation‐induced ferroptosis by suppressing the iron‐starvation response

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Cystine (Cys2) deprivation in pancreatic cancer cells induces oxidative stress that destabilizes cytosolic iron–sulfur cluster (ISC) proteins, triggering an iron‐regulatory protein (IRP)‐mediated iron‐starvation response (ISR). This leads to increased iron uptake (via TFRC), an expanded labile iron pool, and ferroptosis.
