SAT1-Induced Spermidine Depletion Potentiates Food Allergy. [PDF]
Spermidine depletion, driven by upregulated spermidine/spermine N1‐acetyltransferase (SAT1), potentiates food allergy by promoting mast cell degranulation through autophagy suppression. SAT1 physically interacts with the long noncoding RNA Cdk19os to inhibit Atg5 and Atg7, disrupting autophagic flux.

Natural Polyamine Spermidine Inhibits the In Vitro Oxidation of LDL
Spermidine is a natural autophagy-inducer and anti-aging compound. Herein, we investigated a potential autophagy-independent mechanism of spermidine, namely its capability to directly impede LDL oxidation, an early step in atherogenesis.

Functional Characterization of the P‐Type ATPases ATP13A3 and ATP13A4 as Plasma Membrane Polyamine Transporters [PDF]
ATP13A3 and ATP13A4 mediate the plasma membrane uptake of the polyamines, putrescine and spermidine, in an ATP‐dependent manner. ATP13A3 is broadly expressed across human tissues, whereas ATP13A4 is expressed at relatively high levels in the brain and lung.

EBV-Driven ODC1 Upregulation Enhances Polyamine Anabolism to Promote Viral Replication and Cisplatin Resistance in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma. [PDF]
EBV‑BZLF1 initiates ODC1‑driven polyamine anabolism that correlates with poor clinical prognosis in nasopharyngeal carcinoma. The ODC1–spermidine axis promotes viral replication, cell proliferation and innate immune evasion. Pharmacological inhibition of ODC1 rescues cisplatin sensitivity, establishing ODC1 as a viable therapeutic target for EBV ...

Identification of functional amino acid residues involved in polyamine and agmatine transport by human organic cation transporter 2. [PDF]
Polyamine (putrescine, spermidine and spermine) and agmatine uptake by the human organic cation transporter 2 (hOCT2) was studied using HEK293 cells transfected with pCMV6-XL4/hOCT2.
