ZDHHC12-mediated claudin-3 S-palmitoylation determines ovarian cancer progression

open access: yesActa Pharmaceutica Sinica B, 2020
The membrane protein claudin-3 (CLDN3) is critical for the formation and maintenance of tight junction and its high expression has been implicated in dictating malignant progression in various cancers.

Semaglutide normalizes increased cardiomyocyte calcium transients in a rat model of high fat diet‐induced obesity

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1386-1397, April 2025.
Sequeira et al. reveal how the glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonist (GLP‐1‐RA) semaglutide restores cardiomyocyte function in rats subjected to a high‐fat/high‐fructose diet (HFD). Employing fluorescence‐ and patch‐clamp technology in isolated cardiac myocytes, they demonstrate that semaglutide reverses HFD‐induced activation of L‐type calcium ...

Temporal and protein-specific S-palmitoylation supports synaptic and neural network plasticity

open access: yesCellular and Molecular Life Sciences
Background Synaptic plasticity, a fundamental process underlying learning and memory, depends on activity-driven changes in neural connectivity. S-palmitoylation, a reversible post-translational lipid modification, modulates synaptic protein function by ...

S-Palmitoylation of the sodium channel Nav1.6 regulates its activity and neuronal excitability

open access: yes, 2020
S-Palmitoylation is a reversible post-translational lipid modification that dynamically regulates protein functions. Voltage-gated sodium channels are subjected to S-palmitoylation and exhibit altered functions in different S-palmitoylation states.

Palmitoylation enhances the stability of porcine epidemic diarrhea virus spike protein by antagonizing its degradation via chaperone-mediated autophagy to facilitate viral proliferation

open access: yesJournal of Virology
Porcine epidemic diarrhea (PED) is a highly pathogenic and infectious intestinal disease caused by the PED virus (PEDV) and has inflicted substantial economic losses on the global swine industry. Therefore, it is imperative to explore appropriate targets

Mass Spectrometry Insights Into Post‐Translational Modifications in Extracellular Vesicles

open access: yesMass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are membrane‐enclosed structures secreted by virtually all living cells, serving as essential mediators of intercellular communication in both physiological and pathological processes. There is growing interest in their potential applications as biomarkers, therapeutic targets, and drug delivery systems, which ...

S-Palmitoylation of γ-Secretase Subunits Nicastrin and APH-1 [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2009
Proteolytic processing of amyloid precursor protein (APP) by beta- and gamma-secretases generates beta-amyloid (Abeta) peptides, which accumulate in the brains of individuals affected by Alzheimer disease. Detergent-resistant membrane microdomains (DRM) rich in cholesterol and sphingolipid, termed lipid rafts, have been implicated in Abeta production ...

Cell Labeling with 15-YNE Is Useful for Tracking Protein Palmitoylation and Metabolic Lipid Flux in the Same Sample

open access: yesMolecules
Protein S-palmitoylation is the process by which a palmitoyl fatty acid is attached to a cysteine residue of a protein via a thioester bond. A range of methodologies are available for the detection of protein S-palmitoylation.

Precision Medicine in Neurodegeneration with Brain Iron Accumulation (NBIA) Disorders: An Update on Emerging Treatments

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Neurodegeneration with Brain Iron Accumulation (NBIA) is a heterogeneous group of heritable, mostly recessive, progressive neurodegenerative diseases characterized by iron deposition in the basal ganglia and brainstem. There are no solid global epidemiological data on prevalence and incidence of NBIA subtypes, but registry data and ...
