FGF13 is significantly downregulated in the aging brain, particularly in cortical astrocytes within the medial prefrontal cortex. Genetic knockdown of FGF13 in astrocytes accelerates aging phenotypes and impairs neurological function in mice, while its overexpression effectively delays cognitive decline.

Background and Purpose Peripherally derived adiponectin crosses the blood–brain barrier and targets severa0l brain regions. Adiponectin receptors are highly expressed in the hippocampus, and play a pro‐cognitive role as adiponectin markedly influences the functioning of hippocampal synapses.

Cysteine Thioaldehydes: Photolytic Generation, Reactivity, and Biological Implications
Photolysis of cysteine phenacylsulfides bearing non‐conjugating electron‐withdrawing substituents leads to high conversions into cysteine thioaldehydes through a Norrish type‐II pathway. This methodology enabled the study of the aqueous reactivity of these important biosynthetic intermediates, which, depending on peptide sequence, pH and buffer ...

Erosion Potential of Commercial Fluoride‐Free Mouthwashes on Dental Hard Tissues
ABSTRACT Purpose Mouthwashes often present acidic pH, which raises concerns about their potential contribution to erosive tooth wear. This study evaluated the erosive potential of commercial fluoride‐free mouthwashes using a screening method.

IL-1R1-MyD88 axis elicits early papain-induced lung inflammation
Allergic asthma is characterized by a strong Th2 response with inflammatory cell recruitment and structural changes in the lung. Papain is a protease allergen disrupting the airway epithelium triggering a rapid inflammation with eosinophilia mediated by ...

Hitting Coronaviruses Where It Hurts: Antiviral Strategies Targeting Viral Proteins
Viral proteins represent key vulnerabilities in human coronaviruses (HCoVs). This review outlines inhibitors targeting spike (S), main protease (Mpro), papain‐like protease (PLpro), and RNA‐dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp), mapping chemically diverse strategies that disrupt entry and replication, and provides an integrated view of current candidates ...
