Malignancies and immunoglobulin G4‐related disease
Immunoglobulin G4‐related disease (IgG4‐RD) is associated with increased cancer risk. Malignancies affect both IgG4‐RD involved organs, such as the lung, pancreas, bile duct, and prostate, and noninvolved organs, such as the gastrointestinal duct. B‐cell neoplasms constitute a proportion of the malignancies linked to this disease.

It has been reported that the serum level of uric acid is elevated in Down's syndrome. The present study was undertaken to investigate whether the regulation mechanism of uric acid biosynthesis by hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HGPRT) and adenine phosphoribosyltransferase (APRT) is impaired in Down's syndrome.

Our findings demonstrate that NAD+ metabolism dysregulation contributes to elevated intraocular pressure in glaucoma. Supplementation with NAD+ precursors reduces IOP by alleviating oxidative stress, cellular senescence, and extracellular matrix deposition.

Kidney Disease in Adenine Phosphoribosyltransferase Deficiency [PDF]
Adenine phosphoribosyltransferase (APRT) deficiency is a purine metabolism disorder causing kidney stones and chronic kidney disease (CKD). The course of nephrolithiasis and CKD has not been well characterized. The objective of this study was to examine long-term kidney outcomes in patients with APRT deficiency.An observational cohort study.All ...

Explants of human postmenopausal ovarian cortex and medulla were treated with doxorubicin for 24 h followed by culture for up to 10 days in doxorubicin‐free medium. Single nuclei sequencing and proteomics revealed an unbiased signature of ovarian senescence driven by epithelial cells in the cortex and stromal cells in the cortex and medulla ...

Chronic NAD depletion in fibroblasts lowers NAD levels, increases mitochondrial mass, and triggers an interferon‐dependent inflammatory response via mtDNA leakage through VDAC1, activating the cGAS‐STING pathway. This links NAD deficiency to metabolic and inflammatory processes, with implications for diseases associated with NAD decline.

Identification of Functional Cellular Markers Related to Human Health, Frailty and Chronological Age
Human skin fibroblasts in vitro preserve the memory of age and health. ABSTRACT Aging leads to a decline in physiological reserves, an increase in age‐related diseases, reduced functional ability and a shortened healthspan. While molecular markers of chronological aging exist, their link to general health and intrinsic capacity (IC), a composite ...

Inhibition of nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT) is an attractive therapeutic strategy for targeting cancer metabolism. So far, many potent NAMPT inhibitors have been developed and shown to bind to two unique tunnel-shaped cavities existing ...

Cardioprotective effects of the extracellular chaperone clusterin in acute myocardial infarction
In vivo, CLU−/− mice were more susceptible to acute myocardial infarction than CLU+/+ mice. Moreover, inflammation and histone levels were significantly increased in CLU−/− mice compared to CLU+/+ mice following ischemia/reperfusion. In vitro, CLU protects cardiomyocytes from histone‐ and/or hypoxia‐induced cell death.
