Clinical, genetic and molecular aspects of membranous nephropathy
Membranous Nephropathy (MN) is one of the leading causes of end-stage renal disease (ESRD). MN is an autoimmune disease in which autoantibodies target antigens at the level of the glomerular basement membrane.

Is dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine a substrate for convertase?
Convertase has homology with carboxylesterases, but its substrate(s) is not known. Accordingly, we determined whether dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC), the major phospholipid in surfactant, was a substrate for convertase.

Representation of grass pea consumption in drought‐stricken sub‐Saharan Africa sustains nutrition, but excess β‐ODAP exposure due to multiple reasons triggers neurolathyrism, a progressive neurotoxic disorder. ABSTRACT Neurolathyrism is a progressive motor neuron disease due to the consumption of Lathyrus sativus (grass pea) over long periods.

The characterisation of Plc1 : a phospholipase C enzyme identified in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe [PDF]
The plc1 gene product (Plc1) of the fission yeast Schizosaccharomycespombe (Sz. pombe) encodes a phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C (PLC) and most closely resembles the δ class of the PLC isozymes.

Metabolic pathways of eicosanoids—derivatives of arachidonic acid and their significance in skin
The skin is a barrier that protects the human body against environmental factors (physical, including solar radiation, chemicals, and pathogens). The integrity and, consequently, the effective metabolic activity of skin cells is ensured by the cell ...

Cloning and characterisation of phospholipase C X-domain containing proteins (PLCXDs)
Members of the phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC) enzyme family play a fundamental role in cell signalling pathways by regulating cytosolic calcium and/or the activity of several protein kinases. This thesis reports the identification,
