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.

GPI-specific phospholipase D associates with an apoA-I- and apoA-IV-containing complex

Journal of Lipid Research, 2001
Glycosylphosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase D (GPI-PLD) is abundant in serum and associates with high density lipoproteins (HDL). We have characterized the distribution of GPI-PLD among lipoproteins in human plasma.

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.

Leptogenic effects of NAPE require activity of NAPE-hydrolyzing phospholipase D

Journal of Lipid Research, 2017
Food intake induces synthesis of N-acylphosphatidylethanolamines (NAPEs) in the intestinal tract. While NAPEs exert leptin-like (leptogenic) effects, including reduced weight gain and food intake, the mechanisms by which NAPEs induce these leptogenic ...

Hepatic Mechanisms and Therapeutic Target Underpinning Hypercoagulation in Obesity: Insights From Genetic and Transcriptomic Analyses

Exploration, EarlyView.
Obesity‐linked hypercoagulation is driven by fibrinogen overproduction in a specific hepatocyte cluster via IL6 signalling. Genetic and mechanistic studies reveal this pathway as a key target for therapies to mitigate clotting risks and associated complications in obese individuals.

Reconsidering the impact of saturated fat intake on metabolic health: A critical review of evidence and controversies

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract Saturated fats (SFAs) play a complex role in health; therefore, their intake has been a topic of debate in the field of nutrition science. Therefore, this article emphasizes the importance of a balanced diet rather than SFA, considering genetic and metabolic differences, and advocates for the reconsideration of dietary guidelines based on the ...

The Arabidopsis DREB2 genetic pathway is constitutively repressed by basal phosphoinositide-dependent phospholipase C coupled to diacylglycerol kinase in Arabidopsis thaliana

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2013
Phosphoinositide-dependent phospholipases C (PI-PLCs) are activated in response to various stimuli. They utilize substrates provided by type III-Phosphatidylinositol-4 kinases (PI4KIII) to produce inositol triphosphate and diacylglycerol (DAG) that is ...

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.

Crosstalk Between Parkinson's Disease and Colorectal Cancer: Genetic Mechanisms, Gut Microbiota, and Therapeutic Insights

Health Care Science, EarlyView.
This review elucidates the crosstalk between Parkinson's disease and colorectal cancer, driven by shared genetics (PRKN, PINK1, DJ‐1) involving oxidative stress, cell cycle regulation, and inflammation. It identifies the gut microbiota—via functional amyloids and short‐chain fatty acids (SCFAs)—as a mechanistic bridge, offering insights for dual ...
