The characterisation of Plc1 : a phospholipase C enzyme identified in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe [PDF]

The plc1 gene product (Plc1) of the fission yeast Schizosaccharomycespombe (Sz. pombe) encodes a phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C (PLC) and most closely resembles the δ class of the PLC isozymes.

Evaluation of proteinase and phospholipase activity of Candida albicans strains isolated from the mouth of patients with controlled and uncontrolled diabetes mellitus in Qazvin province: Short Communication

مجله دانشگاه علوم پزشکی بیرجند, 2021
Pathophysiological changes in the mouth of patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) predispose to overgrowth of Candida albicans. Various virulence factors such as proteinase and phospholipase production are involved in the process of degradation of the host

From Caffeine to Aspirin: Everyday Molecules as Triggers for Genetically Encoded Proximity Systems

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
This Perspective article highlights how familiar dietary ingredients and over‐the‐counter (OTC) drugs (such as caffeine and its metabolites, SA, and aspirin) can be repurposed as clinically translatable chemical triggers for genetically encoded proximity systems.

Bordetella Pertussis Adenylate Cyclase Toxin Does Not Possess a Phospholipase A Activity; Serine 606 and Aspartate 1079 Residues Are Not Involved in Target Cell Delivery of the Adenylyl Cyclase Enzyme Domain

Toxins, 2018
The adenylate cyclase toxin-hemolysin (CyaA, ACT, or AC-Hly) plays a crucial role in virulence and airway colonization capacity of the whooping cough agent Bordetella pertussis.

Characterization of Lysosomal Hydrolases and Transporters and Their Age‐Dependent Variability: Relevance to Drug Metabolism and Transport of Small Molecule and Biologic Drugs

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Lysosomes play a key role in the accumulation, catabolism, and transport of endogenous and exogenous metabolites and proteins and are involved in drug metabolism and prodrug activation. However, the protein abundance and interindividual variability of lysosomal drug‐metabolizing enzymes and transporters (DMETs) remain underexplored.

Biography as the Missing Variable in Drug Development: A Case for Bio‐Biographical Mechanistic Profiling

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Most clinical trial failures reflect unmeasured biological heterogeneity. Biography — chronic stress, adversity, trauma, and social isolation—is a neglected source of that heterogeneity, operating through the same molecular pathways drugs engage.

LPS inhibits PI-phospholipase C but not PC-phospholipase D or phosphorylase activation by vasopressin and norepinephrine

, 1993
Rats were infused with endotoxin (50 micrograms/100 g body wt) for 3 h, and the parenchymal cells of the liver were maintained in primary culture for 1-3 h.

Impact of Drone Versus Car Transport on Anti‐Doping Sample Integrity Over Short Distances: A Proof‐Of‐Concept Study

Drug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
This proof‐of‐concept study evaluated the impact of short‐distance drone transport on anti‐doping sample integrity compared with traditional car transport. Targeted assays and untargeted metabolomics revealed equivalent biological profiles between methods, confirming that drone delivery preserves sample integrity for the athlete biological passport ...

Membrane lipid metabolism as a regulatory frontier in neural crest biology: Roles for sphingolipids, cholesterol, and lipid rafts

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Neural crest cells are multipotent, migratory stem‐like cells essential for vertebrate development that contribute broadly to many tissues including the craniofacial skeleton, peripheral nervous system, and pigment‐producing cells. Their development progresses through phases of induction, specification, delamination, migration, and ...

Neurolathyrism in Sub‐Saharan Africa—Assessing the Neurotoxic Risks of Lathyrus sativus Amid Drought and Food Security Challenges

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Representation of grass pea consumption in drought‐stricken sub‐Saharan Africa sustains nutrition, but excess β‐ODAP exposure due to multiple reasons triggers neurolathyrism, a progressive neurotoxic disorder. ABSTRACT Neurolathyrism is a progressive motor neuron disease due to the consumption of Lathyrus sativus (grass pea) over long periods.
