Mechanism of cell death induced by spermine and amine oxidase in mouse melanoma cells [PDF]
Polyamines such as spermine, spermidine and putrescine are necessary for cell proliferation and are detected at higher concentrations in most tumor tissues, compared to normal tissues.

The Glu216/Ser218 pocket is a major determinant of spermine oxidase substrate specificity
SMO (spermine oxidase) and APAO (acetylpolyamine oxidase) are flavoenzymes that play a critical role in the catabolism of polyamines. Polyamines are basic regulators of cell growth and proliferation and their homoeostasis is crucial for cell life ...

Self-Assembled Alkylated Polyamine Analogs as Supramolecular Anticancer Agents
Conformationally restrained polyamine analog PG11047 is a well-known drug candidate that modulates polyamine metabolism and inhibits cancer cell growth in a broad spectrum of cancers. Here, we report a structure–activity relationship study of the PG11047

Ischemic Stroke and Traumatic Brain Injury: Epidemiology, Molecular Pathways, and Emerging Therapies
Schematic overview of secondary brain injury after ischemic stroke and traumatic brain injury. Both conditions trigger endothelial cell dysfunction, pericyte contraction, and upregulated AQP4 expression in astrocytic end‐feet, leading to blood–brain barrier disruption.

Bovine liver mitochondria: constitutive presence of a novel enzyme with spermine oxidase properties
Spermine is taken up by mammalian mitochondria and this process needs to identify its catabolic pathway in such organelles. Therefore, the ability of purified bovine liver mitochondria for natural polyamine uptake was verified.

ABSTRACTThe effects and mechanisms of Huangqi Guizhi Wuwu Decoction (HGWD) in cancer cachexia remain unclear. We generated an in vivo cachexia model by implanting Lewis lung carcinoma cells into mice and treated animals with HGWD. We evaluated muscle function using grip strength and wire‐grip tests.

Initial characerization of human spermine oxidase [PDF]
The flavoprotein spermine oxidase catalyzes the oxidation of spermine and oxygen to spermidine, 3-aminopropanol, and hydrogen peroxide. To allow mechanistic studies of the enzyme, methods have been developed to obtain large amounts of purified ...

ABSTRACT Drought stress severely restricts rice productivity, necessitating strategies to enhance stress resilience. Here, we identify translation termination as a tunable regulatory node for stress adaptation. Using 25 rounds of SELEX, we isolated RTAR, an RNA aptamer that binds the rice eukaryotic release factor 1 (OseRF1) with nanomolar affinity ...
