A Kinetic Model of Antigen‐Dependent IgG Oligomerization and Complement Binding

open access: yesSmall Science, EarlyView.
A kinetic model capable of predicting IgG oligomerization, a key step in activating the classical complement pathway (CCP) of the immune system, is presented. The impacts of IgG subclass, concentration, and antigen density are analyzed using advanced biophysical techniques.

Plasmalogen as a Bioactive Lipid Drug: From Preclinical Research Challenges to Opportunities in Nanomedicine

open access: yesFASEB BioAdvances, EarlyView.
Plasmalogens are specialized lipids affecting the membrane structure, dynamics, and key cell signaling pathways. They protect cells from oxidative damage. Plasmalogen deficiency is associated with severe diseases. Lipid nanoparticles and nanomedicine offer unexplored therapeutic potential for restoring plasmalogen levels under pathological conditions ...

PI5P4K inhibitors: promising opportunities and challenges

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Developing inhibitors is like climbing a steep, challenging mountain. PI5P4K inhibitors hold significant promise for the treatment of cancer, immune disorders, and neurological diseases. However, the path to success is fraught with hurdles, and researchers are therefore required to apply their expertise to overcome critical “checkpoints.” While some ...

Natural aminosterols inhibit NMDA receptors with low nanomolar potency

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Misfunction of N‐methyl‐D‐aspartate (NMDA) receptors is associated with many brain disorders, making them primary targets for drug discovery. Trodusquemine and other natural aminosterols inhibit NMDA receptors with low nanomolar potency through binding to the cell membranes followed by interaction with the channels.

On the synergy between myelin proteins P0, MBP, and P2 in peripheral nerve major dense line formation

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Myelin is a multilayered proteolipid membrane in the nervous system. The lipid membranes are held together by specific proteins, and here, we studied three such proteins—P0, MBP, and P2. Our experiments show that the three proteins may act in synergy at the molecular level, while they also compete for lipid membrane surface binding.

Lysine acetylation modulates s‐OPA1 GTPase activity and oligomerization in mitochondrial membrane remodeling

open access: yesProtein Science, Volume 34, Issue 6, June 2025.
Abstract Mitochondrial dynamics are regulated by coordinated fission and fusion events that rely on key proteins and lipids organized spatially within the mitochondria. The dynamin‐related GTPase Optic Atrophy 1 (OPA1) is essential for inner mitochondrial membrane fusion and cristae structure maintenance.
