Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of an Indazole-Based Selective Protein Arginine Deiminase 4 (PAD4) Inhibitor [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Protein arginine deiminase 4 (PAD4) is a calcium-dependent enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of arginine to citrulline within target proteins. Dysregulation of PAD4 has been implicated in a number of human diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis and ...

A stage‐dependent seed defense response to explain efficient seed transmission of Xanthomonas citri pv. fuscans to common bean

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 7, Page 3500-3517, July 2026.
Abstract Although seed represents an important means of plant pathogen dispersion, the seed–pathogen dialogue remains largely unexplored. A multiomic approach was performed at different seed developmental stages of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) during asymptomatic colonization by Xanthomonas citri pv.

Inhibition of PAD4 activity is sufficient to disrupt mouse and human NET formation

open access: yes, 2015
PAD4 has been strongly implicated in the pathogenesis of autoimmune, cardiovascular and oncological diseases, through clinical genetics and gene disruption in mice.

Murine Retinal Citrullination Declines With Age and is Mainly Dependent on Peptidyl Arginine Deiminase 4 (PAD4).

open access: yes, 2018
Citrullination is a post-translational modification (PTM) that serves many normal physiological functions. Studies have shown that this PTM-along with expression of the catalyzing enzymes, peptidyl arginine deiminases (PADs)-are increased in autoimmune ...

Role and intervention of PAD4 in NETs in acute respiratory distress syndrome

open access: yesRespiratory Research
Abstract Background Sepsis is life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection. Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a common sepsis-associated injury that can increase postoperative mortality but the mechanism is still unclear. Main text

Macrophage Extracellular Traps in Immunity and Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 35, 24 June 2026.
As a macrophage‐mediated innate defense mechanism, the dysregulated release of METs drives chronic inflammation and influences tumor progression. Furthermore, METs exhibit a functional duality within the tumor microenvironment, capable of both promoting and suppressing tumor development.

Plant defense against aphids: The PAD4 signalling nexus

open access: yes, 2014
In Arabidopsis thaliana, PHYTOALEXIN DEFICIENT 4 (PAD4) functions as a key player in modulating defense against the phloem sap-feeding aphid Myzus persicae (Sülzer), more commonly known as the green peach aphid (GPA), an important pest of a wide variety ...

Liver‐Targeted Gallium‐Polyphenol Network by Disrupting the ROS/NETs/PANoptosis Axis for Precision Acute Liver Injury Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 32, 9 June 2026.
ABSTRACT Acute liver injury (ALI), driven by diverse insults such as drug toxicity and ischemia‐reperfusion, poses a high mortality risk and lacks targeted therapies. While reactive oxygen species (ROS), neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), and a coordinated cell death pathway PANoptosis have been implicated, their interplay as a unified pathogenic ...

New Insights Into the Role of Neutrophils in Lymphoma

open access: yesCancer Medicine, Volume 15, Issue 6, June 2026.
Tissue‐resident neutrophils challenge conventional paradigms by actively infiltrating normal lymphoid organs, predominantly localizing in interstitial compartments, a spatial distribution distinct from their classical vascular positioning. Neutrophils in lymphoid organs exhibit unique phenotypic and functional signatures, suggesting they play roles in ...

Structural Basis for Ca2+-induced Activation for Human PAD4

open access: yesNihon Kessho Gakkaishi, 2005
Peptidylarginine deimianse 4 (PAD4) is a Ca2+-dependent enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of both arginine and mono-methyl arginine in histones into citrullines, and regulates both histone argininine methylation level and gene activity. Its gene is susceptibility locus for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) .
