Ribosome-inactivating proteins : current status and biomedical applications

, 2012
Ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) are mainly present in plants and function to inhibit protein synthesis through the removal of adenine residues from eukaryotic ribosomal RNA (rRNA).

Enhanced strategies for cuproptosis‐like death in bacterial infection treatment

BMEMat, EarlyView.
This review summarizes and examines the molecular mechanisms underlying cuproptosis‐like death. Furthermore, multi‐strategy efficacy enhancement and potential enhancement approaches are analyzed. Abstract Copper, a classical antibacterial metal, has long been of interest and widely used in medical and public health applications.

A Ribosome–Inactivating Protein fromAmaranthus viridis

Bioscience, Biotechnology, and Biochemistry, 1997
An antiviral protein purified from the leaves of Amaranthus viridis was named amaranthin. The in vivo antiviral activity of amaranthin was confirmed in tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) infection test on Nicotiana glutinosa leaves. The molecular mass of the amaranthin was estimated about 30 kDa by SDS-PAGE and the pI was measured as 9.8 by isoelectric ...

Controllable engineered probiotic microspheres for treating ulcerative colitis: A cascade enzyme‐catalyzed strategy to restore intestinal redox homeostasis

BMEMat, EarlyView.
A dual strategy integrating genetic engineering and physical encapsulation was proposed to enhance the cell viability and antioxidant properties of probiotics. The cascade antioxidant enzymes released from probiotic microspheres restore intestinal redox homeostasis by eliminating intestinal reactive oxygen species for ulcerative colitis treatment ...

Targeting eEF1A1 With Baicalein to Block eEF1A1/Prdx4 Interaction for Treating Sepsis‐Mediated Lung Injury

Exploration, EarlyView.
Targeting eEF1A1 with baicalein disrupts the eEF1A1‐Prdx4 interaction to prevent RNF14‐mediated ubiquitination and degradation of Prdx4. This stabilizes Prdx4 to suppress NF‐κB, thereby alleviating sepsis‐induced acute lung injury. ABSTRACT Sepsis is a systemic inflammatory response syndrome triggered by an uncontrolled host response to infection ...
