Assessment of different Enzymatic Virulence Traits contributing to pathogenicity of Candida Albicans
International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research, 2020 Background: Candidiasis is regarded as one of the frequently occurring fungal infections of humans elicited by yeast that belongs to the genus Candida. Among the different species of Candida, Candida albicans is the most pathogenic specie.

Plant Phospholipases: An Overview
, 2012 Plant phospholipases can be grouped into four major types, phospholipase D, phospholipase C, phospholipase A1 (PLA 1), and phospholipase A2 (PLA 2), that hydrolyze glycerophospholipids at different ester bonds.

In silico analysis of cross reactivity among phospholipases from Hymenoptera species
, 2021 : Background: Phospholipases are enzymes with the capacity to hydrolyze membrane lipids and have been characterized in several allergenic sources, such as hymenoptera species. However, cross-reactivity among phospholipases allergens are little understood.

Lipase maturation factor 1 is required for endothelial lipase activity[S]
Journal of Lipid Research, 2011 Lipase maturation factor 1 (Lmf1) is an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane protein involved in the posttranslational folding and/or assembly of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) and hepatic lipase (HL) into active enzymes.

Interface of Phospholipase Activity, Immune Cell Function, and Atherosclerosis
Biomolecules, 2020 Phospholipases are a family of lipid-altering enzymes that can either reduce or increase bioactive lipid levels. Bioactive lipids elicit signaling responses, activate transcription factors, promote G-coupled-protein activity, and modulate membrane ...

Relationship between NAFLD and coronary artery disease: A Mendelian randomization study
Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022 Abstract Background and Aims There is an ongoing debate on whether NAFLD is an active contributor or an innocent bystander in the pathogenesis of coronary artery disease (CAD). The aim of the present study was to assess the causal relationship between NAFLD and CAD.

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.The neurokinin 1 receptor exists as full‐length (NK1L) and C‐terminally truncated (NK1S) splice variants. We show that NK1S heterodimerizes with NK1L, impairing Gαq coupling and Ca2+ mobilization while enhancing β‐arrestin1 recruitment. NK1S suppresses substance P‐driven gene expression and cell migration, revealing NK1S as an endogenous biased ...

NAFLD‐related hepatocellular carcinoma: The growing challenge
Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022 Risk and protective factors for NAFLD‐related hepatocellular carcinoma Abstract Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a common cause of cancer‐related mortality and morbidity worldwide. With the obesity pandemic, NAFLD‐related HCC is contributing to the burden of disease exponentially.
