Fluorinated Iminosugar Glycomimetics: Synthesis and Activity as GCase Ligands
DAST‐mediated deoxyfluorination of suitably functionalized piperidines provided regio‐ and stereoselective access to fluorinated piperidine and pyrrolidine glycomimetics, the latter arising from an unusual ring‐contraction process. Fluorination generally enhanced β‐glucocerebrosidase (GCase) inhibitory potency, but lost PC activity toward L444P/L444P ...

The potential of intracellular antibodies for therapeutic targeting of protein-misfolding diseases
Misfolding diseases are a wide group of devastating disorders characterized by the accumulation of pathological protein aggregates. Although these disorders still lack an effective treatment, new antibody-based strategies are emerging and entering ...

Prion degradation pathways: Potential for therapeutic intervention [PDF]
Prion diseases are fatal neurodegenerative disorders. Pathology is closely linked to the misfolding of native cellular PrP(C) into the disease-associated form PrP(Sc) that accumulates in the brain as disease progresses. Although treatments have yet to be

A Fluorescent Probe for Protein Misfolding and Aggregation Due to Oxidative Stress Based on a 7-Azaindole-BODIPY Derivative [PDF]
The development of new fluorescent probes as molecular sensors is a critical step for the understanding of molecular mechanisms. Probes based on BODIPY offer remarkable versatility in molecular sensing due to their unique properties.

Salt‐induced nutritional and metabolic shifts in halophytes: implications for food security
Abstract Plant species vary in their response to salinity: some crops show a degree of salt tolerance, while halophytes – whether wild or cultivated – are characterized by a high capacity to thrive under saline conditions. Halophytes are considered a source of valuable secondary metabolites with potential economic value, yet they might also produce ...

Protein misfolding cyclic amplification
Prion diseases are caused by a conformational conversion of the cellular prion protein (PrPC) to a pathological conformer (PrPSc). The “prion-only” hypothesis suggests that PrPSc is the infectious agent that propagates the disease acting as a template ...

A Case of Systemic Amyloidosis Diagnosed After Excision of a Cutaneous Tumour of the Buttocks
ABSTRACT A 72‐year‐old Japanese man was referred to our hospital with two tumours on the buttocks. Two solitary, 2.5 × 1.5 cm‐sized, dark brown, well‐demarcated elevated plaques were observed, one on each side of the gluteal cleft, and dermoscopic examination showed comedo‐like openings, multiple milia‐like cysts, and a cerebriform pattern with ...

ABSTRACT Nitrooxidative stress, driven by excess reactive nitrogen species like peroxynitrite, contributes to the pathogenesis of many chronic diseases. Among its molecular footprints, 3‐nitrotyrosine (3NT) has emerged as a biologically relevant marker of protein nitration.
