Characterization of the Hemagglutinin Cleaving Transmembrane Serine Proteases Matriptase and TMPRSS2 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Influenza is one of the commonest infectious diseases affecting millions of people every year including 290,000 – 650,000 heavy casualties. Influenza viruses undergo constant genetic changes and every 10 – 50 years new influenza virus strains emerge that

Inhibition of Serine Proteases by Arylboronic Acids [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1971
Arylboronic acids were found to be strong competitive inhibitors of subtilisin and chymotrypsin. The binding constants are strongly pH dependent and give a Hammett-type plot with a slope of -0.885. The pH dependence, the Hammett plot, and nmr model-system studies indicate that inhibition is due to electron-pair donation by the active site histidine to ...

Ultra‐Tiny Gelatin Nanoparticles‐Assisted 3D Stem Cell Spheroids for Engineering Tissue Regeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
GNPs effectively guide the formation of structurally compact and functionally enhanced stem cell spheroids. This GNP‐assisted 3D culture system improves cell–cell and cell‐ECM interactions, leading to superior viability and complexity. Time‐dependent regenerative potential is demonstrated in both bone and skin defects, positioning GNP‐spheroids as a ...

Consequences of 'no-choice, fixed time' reciprocal host plant switches on nutrition and gut serine protease gene expression in Pieris brassicae L. (Lepidoptera: Pieridae).

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Rapid adaptive responses were evident from reciprocal host-plant switches on performance, digestive physiology and relative gene expression of gut serine proteases in larvae of crucifer pest P.

Polyprotein processing: cis and trans proteolytic activities of Sesbania mosaic virus serine protease [PDF]

open access: yes
Sesbania mosaic virus (SeMV) polyprotein was shown to undergo proteolytic processing when expressed in E. coli. Mutational analysis of the proposed catalytic triad residues (H181, D216, and S284) present in the N-terminal serine protease domain of the ...

Differential in vitro and in vivo effect of barley cysteine and serine protease inhibitors on phytopathogenic microorganisms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Protease inhibitors from plants have been involved in defence mechanisms against pests and pathogens. Phytocystatins and trypsin/α-amylase inhibitors are two of the best characterized protease inhibitor families in plants.

Antitumoral Efficacy of AuNRs‐Laden ECFCs In Vitro and In Vivo: Decoding the Heat and Rays Combo Treatment in Breast Cancer and Melanoma Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Endothelial Colony Forming Cells (ECFCs) acted as cellular cyborgs, stealthily transporting gold nanorods (AuNRs) into tumors to enable targeted near‐infrared (NIR) hyperthermia combined with radiotherapy. This approach triggers ferroptosis in melanoma and inhibits autophagy in breast cancer, revealing a tumor‐specific response to nanomaterial‐assisted

Enterohemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC)—Secreted Serine Protease EspP Stimulates Electrogenic Ion Transport in Human Colonoid Monolayers

open access: yesToxins, 2018
One of the characteristic manifestations of Shiga-toxin-producing Escherichia coli (E. coli) infection in humans, including EHEC and Enteroaggregative E. coli O104:H4, is watery diarrhea. However, neither Shiga toxin nor numerous components of the type-3

Pollens destroy respiratory epithelial cell anchors and drive alphaherpesvirus infection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Pollens are well-known triggers of respiratory allergies and asthma. The pollen burden in today's ambient air is constantly increasing due to rising climate change and air pollution.

From Mechanoelectric Conversion to Tissue Regeneration: Translational Progress in Piezoelectric Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This review highlights recent progress in piezoelectric materials for regenerative medicine, emphasizing their ability to convert mechanical stimuli into bioelectric signals that promote tissue repair. Key discussions cover the intrinsic piezoelectric properties of biological tissues, co‐stimulation cellular mechanisms for tissue regeneration, and ...
