Safety evaluation of the food enzyme subtilisin from the non‐genetically modified Bacillus paralicheniformis strain AP‐01

EFSA Journal
The food enzyme subtilisin (EC 3.4.21.62) is produced with the non‐genetically modified Bacillus paralicheniformis strain AP‐01 by Nagase (Europa) GmbH. It was considered free from viable cells of the production organism.

Evolution of a subtilisin-like protease gene family in the grass endophytic fungus Epichloë festucae

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2009
Background Subtilisin-like proteases (SLPs) form a superfamily of enzymes that act to degrade protein substrates. In fungi, SLPs can play either a general nutritive role, or may play specific roles in cell metabolism, or as pathogenicity or virulence ...

Is there a role for cannabidiol in obesity, metabolic syndrome and binge eating?

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Cannabidiol (CBD) is one of the most abundant phytocannabinoids isolated from the Cannabis sativa plant. CBD is a lipophilic, non‐intoxicating substance that differently from Δ9‐tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ9‐THC) does not present the typical profile of a drug of abuse.

Impact of incretin analogues on lipid and lipoprotein metabolism in obesity and diabetes

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Incretin‐based therapies have gained momentum as a key strategy for reducing cardiovascular risk in individuals with obesity and/or type 2 diabetes (T2D). It remains unclear whether the cardiovascular benefits reflect a direct reduction in atherogenic lipoproteins—namely, low‐density lipoproteins (LDL), very low‐density lipoproteins (VLDL) and

Targeting PCSK9 in Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells: An Effective Strategy to Suppress Ferroptosis and Attenuate Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Progression

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
PCSK9 aggravates AAA by promoting ferroptosis in VSMCs. In the pathological AAA environment, PCSK9 upregulation triggers ferritinophagy‐dependent degradation of FTH1, leading to Fe2+ release, triggering lipid peroxidation and ferroptosis, exacerbating AAA.

Effectiveness of Telehealth Low‐Carbohydrate Intervention in Preventing Chronic Kidney Disease: A Real‐World, Retrospective, Matched Cohort Study

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Lifestyle interventions targeting metabolic health may influence chronic kidney disease (CKD) risk, particularly among adults with type 2 diabetes and obesity. We evaluated real‐world associations between a telehealth‐delivered, individualized nutrition therapy program (VINT) and CKD incidence and progression compared with usual ...

Bowel Obstruction/Ileus Associated With the Use of Glucagon‐Like Peptide‐1 Receptor Agonists: A Nationwide Database Study

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims The association between glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonist (GLP‐1RA) use and the development of bowel obstruction/ileus remains unclear, and evidence for specific bowel obstruction/ileus subtypes remains limited. We examined the association between GLP‐1RA use and the incidence of bowel obstruction/ileus subtypes across different ...

Safety evaluation of the food enzyme subtilisin from the genetically modified Bacillus licheniformis strain NZYM‐CB

EFSA Journal
The food enzyme subtilisin (EC 3.4.21.62) is produced with the genetically modified Bacillus licheniformis strain NZYM‐CB by Novozymes A/S. The genetic modifications do not give rise to safety concerns.

Combating ageing beyond the cell: Emerging roles of extracellular proteostasis

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Ageing challenges the body's ability to maintain a stable and functional proteome, leading to protein damage and aggregation both inside and outside cells. This review focuses on the less well understood mechanisms of extracellular protein quality control and how they become disrupted in ageing, particularly in neurodegenerative diseases.
