The heterodimeric amino acid transporters (HAT) of the SLC7/SLC3 family: A structure−function relationships and relevance to human pathology

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Heterodimeric amino acid transporters consist of SLC7 and SLC3 family proteins arranged in a conserved structural organization. They regulate nutrient transport across cell membranes, supporting essential cellular functions. These transporters also contribute to xenobiotic/drug uptake and distribution.

Depletion of noradrenaline inhibits electrically-evoked pain in the skin of the human forearm [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Guanethidine displaces noradrenaline from sympathetic varicosities, and blocks sympathetic noradrenergic neurotransmission by inhibiting the release of noradrenaline from depleted neural stores. The aim of this study was to determine whether depletion of

Metabolic rewiring of macrophages by epidermal-derived lactate promotes sterile inflammation in the murine skin

open access: yesThe EMBO Journal
Dysregulated macrophage responses and changes in tissue metabolism are hallmarks of chronic inflammation in the skin. However, the metabolic cues that direct and support macrophage functions in the skin are poorly understood.

Leucine‐rich glioma inactivated 1 (LGI1) is a ganglioside‐binding protein

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neuronal hyperexcitability associated with a decrease/absence of the extracellular protein LGI1 has been suggested to be primarily due to the downregulation of Kv1 channel expression. The molecular mechanisms underlying this decrease have not yet been elucidated.

The Effect of a Myostatin Antagonist on the Healing of Burn Wounds in Skin. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The body's remarkable ability to repair itself from damage is both very useful and extremely complex. The wound healing system is characterised by four overlapping phases: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodelling.

Macrophage Migration Inhibitory Factor (MIF) Drives Murine Psoriasiform Dermatitis

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
The immunomodulator Macrophage Migration Inhibitory Factor (MIF) exerts pleiotropic immunomodulatory activities and has been implicated in the pathogenesis of diverse inflammatory diseases.

Guidelines for inflammation models in mice for food components

open access: yeseFood, 2022
Inflammation is one of the major health threats to humans, and it is associated with various chronic diseases, including metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and several types of cancer.

A context‐dependent modulatory role for eIF6 in acquired resistance to vemurafenib in melanoma

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Acquired resistance to vemurafenib upregulates the translation factor eIF6 in melanoma cells. Silencing eIF6 in resistant cells reduces proliferation and partially restores drug sensitivity, whereas its overexpression increases sensitivity across melanoma lines regardless of BRAF status, via modulation of mTOR, S6K, and MAPK signaling.

Neurogenic Inflammation in Skin and Airways

open access: yesJournal of Investigative Dermatology Symposium Proceedings, 1997
Neurogenic inflammation, in its original definition, the plasma leakage induced by stimulation of peripheral sensory nerves, occurs in the postcapillary venules of the skin and airways. Plasma leakage is accompanied by increased blood flow, which results from dilatation of arterioles.

Membrane composition and thermodynamic identity as boundaries of life for synthetic cell research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
What makes a cell a cell? The boundary of a living cell is not just a wall. Read as a Markov blanket, the membrane separates internal from external states, generating identity and non‐equilibrium order. Can this identity be rebuilt from scratch in a synthetic cell?
