Characterisation of multiple substrate-specific (d)ITP/(d)XTPase and modelling of deaminated purine nucleotide metabolism [PDF]

BMB Reports, 2012
Accumulation of modified nucleotides is defective to variouscellular processes, especially those involving DNA and RNA.To be viable, organisms possess a number of (deoxy)nucleotidephosphohydrolases, which hydrolyze these nucleotidesremoving them from the

Integrating Metabolic Modulation and Nanomedicine for Cancer Immunotherapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Metabolic rewiring in cancer is mapped across glucose, amino acid, lipid, nucleotide, and mitochondrial pathways, with emphasis on immune regulation. The review integrates mechanisms linking these pathways to tumor progression and therapy resistance, and profiles nanomaterial platforms that both deliver therapeutics and actively reprogram ...

Phenotypical and Genotypical Expansion of Autosomal‐Dominant KDM1A‐Related Neurodevelopmental Disorder Spectrum: A Case Report

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT KDM1A‐related neurodevelopmental disorder (CPRF, OMIM #616728) is characterized by cleft palate, global developmental delay, and distinct facial gestalt, but phenotypic knowledge of this ultra‐rare autosomal dominant disorder is limited. Here, we report on a 13‐year‐old boy with a novel heterozygous, likely pathogenic germline missense variant

A journey into the regulatory secrets of the de novo purine nucleotide biosynthesis

Frontiers in Pharmacology
De novo purine nucleotide biosynthesis (DNPNB) consists of sequential reactions that are majorly conserved in living organisms. Several regulation events take place to maintain physiological concentrations of adenylate and guanylate nucleotides in cells ...

The Multifaceted Etiology of Mental Disorders With a Focus on Trace Elements, a Review of Recent Literature

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mental disorders are a significant global public health concern, affecting nearly one in eight individuals worldwide. This review investigates the multifaceted etiology of mental disorders—specifically major depressive disorder (MDD), schizophrenia (SCZ), and bipolar disorder (BD)—through genetic, neurobiological, and environmental ...

The cumulative analgesic effect of repeated electroacupuncture is modulated by Adora3 in the SCDH of mice with neuropathic pain

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Neuropathic pain management via repeated electroacupuncture. Abstract Background Existing remedial approaches for relieving neuropathic pain (NPP) are challenging and open the way for alternative therapeutic measures such as electroacupuncture (EA). The mechanism underlying the antinociceptive effects of repeated EA sessions, particularly concerning ...

Systematic review of the subcutaneous air pouch model using monosodium urate and calcium pyrophosphate and recommendations for studying crystal‐related arthropathies

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Simplified schematic for generation of the subcutaneous air pouch model in the rodent. On day 0 and 4, air is injected into the subcutaneous space on the dorsal surface of the rodent to generate a cavity analogous to a synovial joint. On day 6, monosodium urate (MSU) or calcium pyrophosphate (CPP) crystals are injected into the pouch to stimulate ...

Plasma membrane-located purine nucleotide transport proteins are key components for host exploitation by microsporidian intracellular parasites.

PLoS Pathogens, 2014
Microsporidia are obligate intracellular parasites of most animal groups including humans, but despite their significant economic and medical importance there are major gaps in our understanding of how they exploit infected host cells.
