Dipeptidyl Peptidase 4 (DPP4) Exacerbates Osteoarthritis Progression in an Enzyme‐Independent Manner
In normal conditions, the E3 ubiquitin ligase Carboxyl terminus of Hsc70‐interacting protein (CHIP) binds to and promotes the ubiquitination of Myosin heavy chain 9 (MYH9). The balance between mitochondrial fusion and fission is maintained. In osteoarthritis, Dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4) competitively binds to MYH9, preventing its ubiquitination. MYH9

Abstract The Renin‐Angiotensin System (RAS) is a complex neuroendocrine system consisting of a single precursor protein, angiotensinogen (AGT), which is processed into various peptide hormones, including the angiotensins [Ang I, Ang II, Ang III, Ang IV, Ang‐(1–9), Ang‐(1–7), Ang‐(1–5), etc] and Alamandine‐related peptides [Ang A, Alamandine, Ala‐(1–5)],

Pathological Tau is one of the primary pathological features of AD. Tau aggregation is more closely associated with synaptic loss, neurodegeneration, and cognitive decline than Aβ in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Tau can undergo various posttranslational modifications (PTMs), including phosphorylation, acetylation, SUMOylation, succinylation ...

Programmed cell death: molecular mechanisms, biological functions, diseases, and therapeutic targets
Programmed cell death is a type of autonomic and orderly cell death mode controlled by genes. We reviewed molecular mechanisms of five programmed cell death, including apoptosis, autophagy, pyroptosis, necroptosis, and ferroptosis. Programmed cell death is widely involved in the normal physiological process of the organism.

Serum proteome profiling of plateau acclimatization in men using Olink proteomics approach
Abstract Plateau acclimatization involves adaptive changes in the body's neurohumoral regulation and metabolic processes due to hypoxic conditions at high altitudes. This study utilizes Olink targeted proteomics to analyze serum protein expression differences in Han Chinese individuals acclimatized for 6 months–1 year at 4500 and 5300 m altitudes ...

Abstract Anaerobic microbial communities are often highly degradative, such as those found in the herbivore rumen and large‐scale anaerobic digesters. Since the microbial communities in these systems degrade recalcitrant organic polymers, we hypothesize that some microbes in anaerobic environments may be involved in man‐made plastic association ...

Prolyl oligopeptidase: an unusual beta-propeller domain regulates proteolysis.
Prolyl oligopeptidase is a large cytosolic enzyme that belongs to a new class of serine peptidases. The enzyme is involved in the maturation and degradation of peptide hormones and neuropeptides, which relate to the induction of amnesia. The 1.4 A resolution crystal structure is presented here.
