Heterogeneity in polyamine metabolism dictates prognosis and immune checkpoint blockade response in hepatocellular carcinoma

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
Immune checkpoint blockade holds promise in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) treatment, but its efficacy remains limited. Dysregulated polyamine metabolism and its interaction with oncogenic pathways promote tumor progression. However, the heterogeneity of

Differences in Polyamine Metabolism between Carcinomatous and Uninvolved Human Breast Tissues

open access: yesThe International Journal of Biological Markers, 1986
The polyamine biosynthetic enzymes ODC and SAMDC show higher activity in carcinomatous human breast tissue than in uninvolved tissue of the same breast; the interconversion enzyme PAO shows significantly lower activity in carcinomatous than uninvolved ...

Searching for Drug Synergy Against Cancer Through Polyamine Metabolism Impairment: Insight Into the Metabolic Effect of Indomethacin on Lung Cancer Cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2020
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most lethal and prevalent type of lung cancer. In almost all types of cancer, the levels of polyamines (putrescine, spermidine, and spermine) are increased, playing a pivotal role in tumor proliferation ...

Difluoromethylornithine (DFMO) and AMXT 1501 inhibit capsule biosynthesis in pneumococci

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Polyamines are small cationic molecules that have been linked to various cellular processes including replication, translation, stress response and recently, capsule regulation in Streptococcus pneumoniae (Spn, pneumococcus).

Medium alkalization due to carbon metabolism is largely responsible for inhibition of bacterial growth by Vibrio cholerae supernatants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Vibrio cholerae is the causative agent of the diarrheal disease cholera. Many Vibrio species secrete antimicrobial factors, though the identity of such a factor has not been determined for any V. cholerae strain.

Overview of Encapsulated Lysine and Methionine and Their Impacts on Transition Cow Performance and Health

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
The transition period in dairy cows, spanning 3 weeks before and after calving, is a critical phase characterized by increased nutrient demands, reduced dry matter intake (DMI), and elevated risk of metabolic disorders such as negative nutrient balance (NNB), lipolysis, proteolysis, and oxidative stress.

Design, Synthesis and biological evaluation of novel acridine-polyamine conjugates against prostate cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Prostate cancer is the most common cause of cancer death in men, aged 85 and over. Androgen receptor, a single polypeptide with three functional domains is very important during initiation and progression of the disease.

Evidence that host size determines liver size: Studies in dogs receiving orthotopic liver transplants [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
Orthotopic liver transplantation was performed in two groups of dogs; Group I animals consisted of large dogs that served as recipients of livers obtained from smaller dogs while Group II animals consisted of dogs that received liver from donor dogs of ...

Cyclosporine augments hepatic regenerative response in rats [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
A number of mechanisms participate in the hepatic injury that occurs during and following liver transplantation. A normal allograft regenerative response is probably essential for a successful transplant outcome. In this study, the effect of cyclosporine,

Gut Health in Ostriches (Struthio camelus): Insights Into Intestinal Structure, Functions, Microbiome, and Improvement Strategies

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Our paper systematically reviews the intestinal structure, function, and microbiota of ostriches, along with strategies for improving their gut health. We analyze how these factors collectively influence intestinal homeostasis and ostrich welfare, emphasizing probiotics as a promising intervention to enhance gut health, boost population well‐being, and
