Imbalance in the gut microbiota triggers neuroinflammation, thereby promoting the progression of Alzheimer's disease. Modulating the gut microbiota may reverse this process, offering a new strategy for the treatment of AD. Such interventions through the gut–brain axis pave new avenues for the prevention and treatment of AD. This figure was created with

Review of the Rpt3 Genes Encoding Part of the 26S Proteasome Associated with Loci Underlying Disease Resistance in Soybean [PDF]
The 26S proteasomal complex is a multifunctional proteolytic machinery of the cell. The proteasome plays role in myriad of cellular functions, which have been further diversified by its separable proteolytic and non-proteolytic sub-complexes.

The transcriptome and proteome changes caused by the overexpression of Maf1 in the protozoan parasite Leishmania major suggest the participation of this protein in multiple key biological processes. Abstract Maf1, originally described as a repressor of RNA polymerase III (RNAP III) transcription in yeast, participates in multiple functions across ...

A self-compartmentalizing hexamer serine protease from Pyrococcus Horikoshii: Substrate selection achieved through multimerization [PDF]
Oligopeptidases impose a size limitation on their substrates, the mechanism of which has long been in debate. Here we present the structure of a hexameric serine protease, an oligopeptidase from Pyrococcus horikoshii (PhAAP), revealing a complex, self ...

Proteomic Analysis of Human Urinary Exosomes [PDF]
Exosomes originate as the internal vesicles of multivesicular bodies (MVBs) in cells. These small vesicles (40-100 nm) have been shown to be secreted by most cell types throughout the body.

Combinatorial omics analysis reveals perturbed lysosomal homeostasis in collagen VII-deficient keratinocytes [PDF]
The extracellular matrix protein collagen VII is part of the microenvironment of stratified epithelia and critical in organismal homeostasis. Mutations in the encoding gene COL7A1 lead to the skin disorder dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (DEB), are ...

Removal of prolyl oligopeptidase reduces alpha-synuclein toxicity in cells and in vivo [PDF]
Prolyl oligopeptidase (PREP) inhibition by small-molecule inhibitors can reduce alpha-synuclein (aSyn) aggregation, a key player in Parkinson's disease pathology.
