Pb2+ tolerance by Frankia sp. strain EAN1pec involves surface-binding [PDF]

, 2017
Several Frankia strains have been shown to be lead-resistant. The mechanism of lead resistance was investigated for Frankia sp. strain EAN1pec. Analysis of the cultures by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDAX ...

Combined 5‐aminolevulinic acid and ferric ammonium citrate treatment promotes hair follicle growth by activating dermal papilla cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
5‐Aminolevulinic acid combined with ferric ammonium citrate (5‐ALA/FAC) stimulates dermal papilla cell activity and promotes hair follicle growth. The treatment enhances ERK and AKT signaling, increases hair‐inductive gene expression, and restores dermal papilla function suppressed by dihydrotestosterone and oxidative stress, resulting in enhanced hair

Phosphate Homeostasis, Inflammation and the Regulation of FGF-23

Kidney & Blood Pressure Research, 2018
Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) is released primarily from osteoblasts/osteocytes in bone. In cooperation with the transmembrane protein Klotho, FGF23 is a powerful inhibitor of 1α 25OH Vitamin D Hydroxylase (Cyp27b1) and thus of the formation of 1 ...

Glutathione s-transferase omega in the lung and sputum supernatants of COPD patients [PDF]

, 2015
BACKGROUND: The major contribution to oxidant related lung damage in COPD is from the oxidant/antioxidant imbalance and possibly impaired antioxidant defence. Glutathione (GSH) is one of the most important antioxidants in human lung and lung secretions,

Blood‐based proteomic profiling reveals context‐dependent changes in BCL2‐associated signaling during taxane therapy in breast cancer patients

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Chemotherapy side effects significantly impact cancer survivors' quality of life. Using protein levels in blood samples from breast cancer patients before and after 12 weeks of taxane treatment, we detected treatment‐dependent changes in calcium signaling and aging pathways associated with cancer recurrence.

Phosphate in Physiological and Pathological Mineralization: Important yet Often Unheeded

MedComm
Phosphate is an important element in biological processes, particularly in the formation and metabolism of mineralized tissues such as bones and teeth. The imbalance of phosphate is also closely related with pathological mineralization.

Activities and genetic interactions of fission yeast Aps1, a Nudix-type inositol pyrophosphatase and inorganic polyphosphatase

mBio
Inositol pyrophosphate 1,5-IP8 regulates expression of a fission yeast phosphate homeostasis regulon, comprising phosphate acquisition genes pho1, pho84, and tgp1, via its action as an agonist of precocious termination of transcription of the upstream ...

The Role Of Salivary Glands In Phosphate Homeostasis

Kidney Research and Clinical Practice, 2012
Hyperphosphatemia is recognized as a contributor to vascular calcification in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and hemodialysis (HD) patients and is independently associated with cardiac mortality. Dietary inorganic phosphorus (Pi) restriction,

Calcium binding to a remote site can replace magnesium as cofactor for mitochondrial Hsp90 (TRAP1) ATPase activity. [PDF]

, 2018
The Hsp90 molecular chaperones are ATP-dependent enzymes that maintain protein homeostasis and regulate many essential cellular processes. Higher eukaryotes have organelle-specific Hsp90 paralogs that are adapted to each subcellular environment.

YIPFα1A expression is regulated by multilayered molecular mechanisms

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
YIPFα1A, a five‐pass Golgi protein, is regulated at multiple layers. (1) Rare‐codon enrichment drives translation‐coupled mRNA decay. (2) A proximal 3′‐UTR element stabilizes mRNA. (3) A distal 3′‐UTR element included by alternate poly(A) site usage represses translation, which can be overridden by the proximal 3′‐UTR element.
