Lactoferrin treatment activates acetylcholinesterase, decreasing acetylcholine levels in non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell culture supernatants, inhibiting cell survival

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Representation of the suggested mode of action of lactoferrin (Lf) in nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) A549 cells. Lf induces activation of caspase‐3 by activating p53 and AChE leading to decreased ACh concentrations. In turn, ACh signaling leads to activation of VEGF and AKT and blocking of caspase‐3.

Single‐Cell RNA Seq in Sydenham Chorea Shows B Cell HLA‐DR/DQ Upregulation and Plasma Cell Proteasomal Activation

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The pathogenesis of Sydenham chorea remains unclear. We report a 10‐year‐old girl presenting with subacute chorea and mild carditis following Streptococcal throat infection. Single‐cell RNA sequencing on 30,794 peripheral immune cells from the patient and two sex‐matched controls revealed nine immune cell clusters.

Bioinformatics Designing of 10-23 Deoxyribozyme against Coding Region of Beta-galactosidase Gene

open access: yesResearch in Molecular Medicine, 2017
Background: Deoxyribozymes (Dzs) can play a role as gene expression inhibitors at mRNA level. Among Dzs, the 10-23 deoxyribozyme has significant potentials for treatment of diseases.

Protein Sequencing with an Adaptive Genetic Algorithm from Tandem Mass Spectrometry

open access: yes, 2008
In Proteomics, only the de novo peptide sequencing approach allows a partial amino acid sequence of a peptide to be found from a MS/MS spectrum. In this article a preliminary work is presented to discover a complete protein sequence from spectral data ...

Systemic T Cell Receptor Profiling Reveals Adaptive Immune Activation and Potential Immune Signatures of Diagnosis and Brain Atrophy in Epilepsy

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Epilepsy is increasingly associated with immune dysregulation and inflammation. The T cell receptor (TCR), a key mediator of adaptive immunity, shows repertoire alterations in various immune‐mediated diseases. The unique TCR sequence serves as a molecular barcode for T cells, and clonal expansion accompanied by reduced overall TCR ...

Exosome Proteomics of SOD1D90A Mutation Suggest Early Disease Mechanisms, and FN1 as a Biomarker

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neuromuscular disease. Super oxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) gene mutations cause ALS, and the D90A mutation is associated with primarily upper motor neuron (UMN) loss. Objective Our goal is to reveal the early cellular events in ALS pathology and identify potential pharmacokinetic biomarkers, using well ...

Growth Differentiation Factor 15 Elevation in the Central Nervous System Is Associated With Failure to Thrive in Alexander Disease

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Alexander disease (AxD) is a severe neurodegenerative disorder caused by gain‐of‐function mutations in the gene for GFAP, which lead to protein aggregation and a primary astrocytopathy. Symptoms vary, but failure to thrive (FTT) and frequent emesis are common and cause significant morbidity. Here we investigate GDF15, a member of the

CSF Levels of NPTX2 Are Associated With Less Brain Atrophy Over Time in Cognitively Unimpaired Individuals

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Neuronal pentraxin 2 (NPTX2) is a synaptic protein involved in synaptic plasticity and regulation of neuronal excitability. Lower baseline cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) NPTX2 levels have been shown to be associated with an earlier onset of mild cognitive impairment (MCI), a pre‐dementia syndrome, even after CSF Alzheimer's Disease (AD)

PowerNovo: de novo peptide sequencing via tandem mass spectrometry using an ensemble of transformer and BERT models

open access: yesScientific Reports
The primary objective of analyzing the data obtained in a mass spectrometry-based proteomic experiment is peptide and protein identification, or correct assignment of the tandem mass spectrum to one amino acid sequence.
