Plants synthesize ergothioneine, showing a link to abiotic stress
Various plants possess ergothioneine biosynthetic genes and can synthesize this antioxidant, where increased EGT levels under abiotic stress conditions indicate protective functions. Abstract Ergothioneine (EGT) is a sulphur‐containing histidine derivative and a potent antioxidant that exhibits beneficial effects on human health.

Inflammation and mechanical force‐induced bone remodeling
Abstract Periodontitis arises from imbalanced host–microbe interactions, leading to dysbiosis and destructive inflammation. The host's innate and adaptive immune responses produce pro‐inflammatory mediators that stimulate destructive events, which cause loss of alveolar bone and connective tissue attachment.

Sulfatase modifying factor 2 as a predictive biomarker for urothelial carcinoma
Sulfatases mediate the sulfation level of cell-surface heparan sulfates to regulate signal transduction, thereby promoting cancer progression. Sulfatase activation requires a sulfatase modifying factor (SUMF) for the modification of its catalytic domain.

ABSTRACT Almost all patients with mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) develop respiratory dysfunction of varying severity during disease progression. While respiratory disease in MPS has traditionally been attributed to upper airway obstruction caused by glycosaminoglycan (GAG) accumulation in the trachea and bronchi, involvement of the intrapulmonary ...

Best Practices in Physiologically Based Pharmacokinetic (PBPK) Modeling
ABSTRACT Physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling is a mechanistic cornerstone of model‐informed drug development (MIDD), providing evidence for regulatory decisions. PBPK models integrate physiological and pharmacological data and have been applied across a plethora of contexts of use, including assessing drug–drug interactions (DDIs ...

Carrageenans, widely used food additives, disrupted intestinal epithelial integrity in a gut‐on‐a‐chip model. All types (κ‐, ɩ‐, λ‐) induced cytotoxicity, inflammation and tight junction (TJ) disruption, triggering TNF‐mediated immune responses. λ‐Carrageenan had the most severe effects, supporting the Epithelial Barrier Theory linking food additives ...

We identify a female patient with a homozygous nonsense variant (p.Gln38Ter) in the LYSET gene. This is the first western report of a challenging case of an extensive diagnostic odyssey and demonstrates that the LYSET gene must be considered in the differential diagnosis when M6P‐labeled lysosomal enzymes are altered.

Researches on Sulfatase Models, IV
unsym.メチルフェニルヒドラヂンはヒドラヂン以上にグルコーゼ硫酸の分解を促進するが, Sym.アセチルフェニルヒドラヂンは全くその作用がない.從つてグルコスルフ,ターゼ模型としての作用を有する爲にはヒドラヂンの少くとも1個のアミノ基は遊離して居なければならないと思はれる.グルコスルファターゼ模型としてのヒドラヂンの特異性は必ずしもグルコスルファターゼの特異性と現在見做されて居るもの2)とは一致しない.即ち,バウシウボラより得られたグルコスルファターゼ製品はα-メチルグルコシド硫酸,蔗糖硫酸等をも分解するが,ヒドラヂンは,ヒドラヂン誘導體縮合生成物を作る様な還元糖等の硫酸エステルに限り分解する.

Proteolytic remodelling of the extracellular matrix by pericytes
Pericytes are specialised perivascular cells intimately connected with endothelial cells and essential for the maintenance of vascular beds. They contribute to the formation and remodelling of the extracellular matrix by actively secreting proteases and protease inhibitors.
