Pi∗S and Pi∗Z Alleles of SERPINA1 Gene Are Associated With Specific Variants of a BRD4-Independent Enhancer. [PDF]

open access: yesHum Mutat
Alpha‐1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) is a genetic disorder caused by specific variants in the SERPINA1 gene, which encodes AAT. The most common disease‐associated SERPINA1 variants are Pi ∗ S and Pi ∗ Z alleles, which cause moderate and severe AATD, respectively. Recent studies have reported the presence of a possible regulator of SERPINA gene cluster

Collagen constitutes about 12% in females and 17% in males of the total protein in mice

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Collagen has been postulated to be the most abundant protein in our body, making up one-third of the total protein content in mammals. However, a direct assessment of the total collagen levels of an entire mammal to confirm this estimate is missing. Here

Topical emollient prevents the development of atopic dermatitis and atopic march in mice

open access: yesExperimental Dermatology, Volume 32, Issue 7, Page 1007-1015, July 2023., 2023
Abstract To investigate the effect of emollient on atopic march in a murine model of atopic dermatitis (AD). Following induction of AD with topical calcipotriol (MC903) and ovalbumin (OVA), one group of mice was treated topically with a linoleic acid‐ceramide‐containing emollient, while mice without emollient treatment served as disease controls. After

The RNA‐binding protein Snd1/Tudor‐SN regulates hypoxia‐responsive gene expression

open access: yesFASEB BioAdvances, Volume 5, Issue 5, Page 183-198, May 2023., 2023
Our results show that in normal growth conditions Snd1 is not a critical factor for mRNA transcription in the mouse and describe a function for Snd1 in hypoxia adaptation through negatively regulating hypoxia‐related miRNAs and hypoxia‐induced transcription consistent with a role as stress response regulator.

A research on the mechanism of SERPINA3 promoting malignant progression and gemcitabine resistance of pancreatic cancer by inhibiting ferroptosis [PDF]

open access: yesZhongguo aizheng zazhi
Background and purpose: Members of the serine protease inhibitor (SERPIN) family can influence tumorigenesis, progression, and prognosis by modulating processes such as apoptosis, invasion, metastasis, and angiogenesis in tumor cells. However, their role

Deletion of adipocyte prohibitin 1 exacerbates high‐fat diet‐induced steatosis but not liver inflammation and fibrosis

open access: yesHepatology Communications, Volume 6, Issue 12, Page 3335-3348, December 2022., 2022
Schematic illustration of the proposed role of adipocyte PHB1 in HFD‐induced NAFLD. Abstract Adipose tissue dysfunction is closely associated with the development and progression of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Recent studies have implied an important role of prohibitin‐1 (PHB1) in adipose tissue function. In the current study, we aimed to

Screening for Alpha 1 antitrypsin deficiency in Tunisian subjects with obstructive lung disease: a feasibility report [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Background AATD is one of the most common inherited disorders in the World. However, it is generally accepted that AATD in North African populations is not a risk factor for lung and/or liver disease, based on a number of small studies.

Protein Scaffold‐Based Multimerization of Soluble ACE2 Efficiently Blocks SARS‐CoV‐2 Infection In Vitro and In Vivo

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 9, Issue 27, September 23, 2022., 2022
Multimeric soluble angiotensin‐converting enzyme 2 (sACE2) generated via SunTag/MoonTag scaffolds enhanced neutralization capacity of monomeric sACE2 more than 100‐fold against pseudoviruses of variants of concern (VOC) and live severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus‐2 (SARS‐CoV‐2).
