Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

The process of internalization of the Shiga toxin A subunit via formation of a complex with the Shiga toxin B subunit, which specifically binds to the Gb3 receptor. The peptide is designed to act as a carrier of drugs into cancer cells. Here, we explored the potential of peptides derived from the catalytic A subunit of Shiga toxin (STxA) to be drug ...

NO donors inhibit Leishmania infantum cysteine proteinase activity
Nitric oxide (NO) releasing drugs (e.g., glyceryl trinitrate) were successfully used in the treatment of cutaneous leishmaniasis in man. In the present study, the effect of NO donors on the catalytic activity of the cysteine proteinase from promastigotes

Are Proteinase 3 and Cathepsin C Enzymes Related to Pathogenesis of Periodontitis? [PDF]
Aim. Cathepsin C is the activator of the polymorphonuclear leukocyte-derived proteinase 3, which contributes to inflammatory processes. The aim of the present study was to investigate gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) proteinase 3 and cathepsin C levels in

An epithelial GPR35 isoform supports tumor‐associated transcriptional and metabolic phenotypes
GPR35 generates two functionally distinct isoforms with previously unresolved roles. GPR35‐short mediates immune‐cell chemotaxis, while GPR35‐long is enriched in colorectal cancer epithelium, where it supports increased metabolism, proliferation, and tumor‐associated transcriptional programs.

Anti-proteinase 3 antibodies, their characterization and disease associations
SUMMARY Anti-proteinase 3 antibodies are a subgroup of anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA), and we have established an ELISA for their detection using high performance liquid chromatograhy (HPLC)-purified protein.

Animals must match their growth rate to available nutrients. We show that in Drosophila larvae, the nutrient‐sensing TOR kinase controls growth by regulating levels of TFAM, a key regulator of mitochondrial function, in the adipose tissue. When nutrients are abundant, high TOR activity suppresses TFAM, lowering mitochondrial bioenergetic activity and ...

MPO-C-ANCA-associated necrotising and crescentic glomerulonephritis
The patterns of ANCA staining usually relate closely to antibodies against myeloperoxidase and proteinase-3. C-ANCA is mainly antibodies to proteinase-3 and P-ANCA is antibodies to myeloperoxidase.

Cysteine proteinase inhibitors: purification and gene isolation [PDF]
Genetic engineering has produced a transgenic insect- resistant plant which produces a serine protease inhibitor (Hilder et al., 1987). More insects can be targetted if a plant can be made to produce thiol protease inhibitors.

Peripheral lysosomes recruit PLEKHG3 to focal adhesions and restrain protrusion dynamics
Proximity‐dependent labeling at the LAMTOR complex revealed the Rho GEF PLEKHG3 as a lysosome‐proximal protein directing the study toward the influence of lysosome positioning on actin dynamics and cell motility. We show that PLEKHG3 colocalizes with lysosomes at focal adhesion sites and observe that forced peripheral dispersion of lysosomes hinders ...
