Dual‐Functional Polyphosphoesters for Gene Delivery: Synergistic Effects of Guanidinium and Hydrophobic Side Chains in Degradable Polymers

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents guanidinium‐ and indole‐functionalized polyphosphoesters as degradable, non‐viral gene delivery vectors. Through precise tuning of charge density and hydrophobicity, these polymers form stable polyplexes with low toxicity. Remarkably, minor structural changes yield up to 200‐fold differences in transfection efficiency, highlighting ...

Protein Language Model‐Guided Engineering of a 2,3‐Butanediol Dehydrogenase for the Enantioselective Synthesis of Cyclic α‐Hydroxy Ketones

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A (2R,3R)‐butanediol dehydrogenase from Bacillus subtilis (BsBDH) is engineered for the enantioselective synthesis of 2‐hydroxycyclohexanone. A PASS computational design strategy is proposed to enhance the thermostability of BsBDH. Moreover, ESM‐1v combined with ISM is utilized for enhancing and inverting its stereoselectivity.

Phosphodiesterases 3 and 4 Differentially Regulate the Funny Current, If, in Mouse Sinoatrial Node Myocytes

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2017
Cardiac pacemaking, at rest and during the sympathetic fight-or-flight response, depends on cAMP (3′,5′-cyclic adenosine monophosphate) signaling in sinoatrial node myocytes (SAMs).

Phosphodiesterases S-sulfhydration contributes to human skeletal muscle function.

open access: yesPharmacological Research, 2022
The increase in intracellular calcium is influenced by cyclic nucleotides (cAMP and cGMP) content, which rating is governed by phosphodiesterases (PDEs) activity.Despite it has been demonstrated a beneficial effect of PDEs inhibitors in different ...

Phosphodiesterase Inhibitors [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Cardiovascular Forum Journal, 2019
Phosphodiesterases (PDEs) comprise a superfamily with 11 subfamilies. Within these families, more than 40 isoforms are expressed. Phosphodiesterase-3 inhibitors (PDE3i) are used as inotrope/vasodilators for acute heart failure (HF), and PDE5i for pulmonary hypertension and erectile dysfunction.

Decoding Human Placental Cellular and Molecular Responses to Obesity and Fetal Growth

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Women with obesity often deliver large‐for‐gestational‐age (LGA) infants. Single‐nucleus RNA sequencing of term placenta reveals that hypoxia and TNF‐α signaling in syncytiotrophoblasts are featured in maternal obesity, but inflammatory signatures in Hofbauer cells and response to lipid or carbohydrate metabolism in fibroblasts are specific to LGA.
