ABSTRACT Periodontitis (PD) and primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) are persistent inflammatory diseases that affect oral health, and numerous studies have uncovered phenotypic and intrinsic correlations between the two. However, a comprehensive and high‐resolution analysis at the single‐cell level has not been reported comparing the immune cell ...

Healthy Aging Metabolomic and Proteomic Signatures Across Multiple Physiological Compartments
The association of the aging scores with the clinical covariates suggests increased inflammation, strong predisposition to iron deficiency anemia, decline in muscle mass, and renal and hepatic functions with accelerated aging. ABSTRACT The study of biomarkers in biofluids and tissues expanded our understanding of the biological processes that drive ...

Structural studies of the saposins and PagP
This thesis comprises two parts. The first chapters describe structural studies of sphingolipid activator proteins, the saposins. This is followed by studies of the outer membrane protein PagP.

The secretion and maturation of prosaposin and procathepsin D are blocked in embryonic neural progenitor cells [PDF]
The notion that prosaposin (Prosap) is likely involved in brain development and regeneration led us to explore its expression in stem/progenitor neural cells and its fate after cell differentiation.

Function of saposin C in the reconstitution of glucosylceramidase by phosphatidylserine liposomes
The function of saposin C (Sap C), a glucosylceramidase activator protein, in the enzyme stimulation by phosphatidylserine (PS) liposomes has been investigated. Using gel filtration experiments evidence was obtained for Sap C binding to PS large unilamellar vesicles (LUV) but not to glucosylceramidase.

Binding of cerebrosides and sulfatides to saposins A-D.
Saposins are a family of four small glycoproteins, all of which are derived from prosaposin, and are involved in the lysosomal hydrolysis of various sphingolipids. Results from this investigation demonstrate that saposins A-D bind to galactosyl- and glucosylceramide.

Saposin fold revealed by the NMR structure of NK-lysin.
NK-lysin is the first representative of a family of sequence related proteins--saposins, surfactant-associated protein B, pore forming amoeba proteins, and domains of acid sphingomyelinase, acyloxyacylhydrolase and plant aspartic proteinases--for which a

Structural Investigations of Saposin/Hydrolase Systems
The degradation of sphingolipids (SLs) in mammals relies on the interplay between a set of lysosomal hydrolases and their cofactor proteins, the saposins.
