Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study explores the opposing effects of the mGluR2 and mGluR3 receptors on amyloid precursor protein processing. mGluR2 promotes amyloidogenic cleavage, while mGluR3 favors non‐amyloidogenic pathways. Using a brain‐penetrant nanobody as a mGluR2 positive allosteric modulator, the study uncovers how its chronic activation aggravates amyloid‐β burden

Discovery of a Potent Fluorescence Polarization Probe for Identifying USP1 Allosteric Inhibitors
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study presents the first ubiquitin‐specific protease 1 (USP1) allosteric fluoroprobe and fluorescence polarization assay, enabling the differentiation of allosteric and catalytic site inhibitors. Further, a novel class of tetrahydroisoquinoline‐based USP1 inhibitors is designed, with compound 14a (USP1 IC50 = 29.9 nM) showing strong selectivity ...

Induction of mast cell accumulation, histamine release and skin edema by N49 phospholipase A [PDF]
, 2009 Background It has been recognized that phospholipase A2 (PLA2) is a crucial component of snake venom, which contributes greatly to snake venom induced inflammation in man. However, the mechanisms through which N49 PLA2 provoke inflammation remain unclear.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.WTAP drives cartilage regeneration by activating an LRP1‐dependent lipid metabolic program in macrophages, enhancing IL‐10 and TGF‐β secretion to promote chondrogenic differentiation. Leveraging this mechanism, virtual screening identifies LRP1‐targeting compounds that effectively stimulate cartilage repair, highlighting a druggable epigenetic ...

The emerging roles of PAF acetylhydrolase
Journal of Lipid Research, 2009 Platelet-activating factor (PAF), a phospholipid autacoid with potent effects throughout the innate immune system, is selectively degraded by two small families of PAF acetylhydrolases (PAF-AHs).

Engineering the Rod of Asclepius – A Biochemical Investigation of Snake Venom Components and their Application as Potential Cancer Treatments [PDF]
, 2019 In the wild, venom is crucial to many snakes’ success as predators. While antivenin research focuses on combatting venoms’ abilities to disrupt physiological processes, new studies are attempting to manipulate these same abilities into anticancer ...

Detection of microbes in the subsurface [PDF]
The search for evidence of microbial life in the deep subsurface of Earth has implications for the Mars Rover Sampling Return Missions program. If suitably protected environments can be found on Mars then the instrumentation to detect biomarkers could be
