N‐Glycoproteomics of the Apicomplexan Parasite Toxoplasma gondii

open access: yesPROTEOMICS, Volume 25, Issue 8, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Protein N‐glycosylation influences protein folding, stability, and trafficking, and has prominent functions in cell–cell adhesion and recognition. For the parasite Toxoplasma gondii, N‐glycosylation of proteins is crucial for initial adhesion to host cells, parasite motility, and consequently, its ability to invade host cells.

Natural pigments derived from plants and microorganisms: classification, biosynthesis, and applications

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 23, Issue 2, Page 592-614, February 2025.
Summary Pigments, as coloured secondary metabolites, endow the world with a rich palette of colours. They primarily originate from plants and microorganisms and play crucial roles in their survival and adaptation processes. In this article, we categorize pigments based on their chemical structure into flavonoids, carotenoids, pyrroles, quinones ...

Oligopeptide Transporter-1 is Associated with Fluorescence Intensity of 5-Aminolevulinic Acid-Based Photodynamic Diagnosis in Pancreatic Cancer Cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
[Background] The 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA)-based photodynamic diagnosis is based on the accumulation of photosensitizing protoporphyrin IX in the tumor after ALA administration. However, the mechanisms connecting exogenous ALA and tumor fluorescence in

A review of the toxicological effects and allergenic potential of emerging alternative protein sources

open access: yesComprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 24, Issue 1, January 2025.
Abstract The growing environmental pressure of the animal food chain requires a system shift toward more sustainable diets based on alternative protein sources. Emerging alternative protein sources, such as faba bean, mung bean, lentil, black gram, cowpea, quinoa, hemp, leaf proteins, microalgae, and duckweeds, are being explored for their potential in

Herbicides as fungicides: Targeting heme biosynthesis in the maize pathogen Ustilago maydis

open access: yesMolecular Plant Pathology, Volume 25, Issue 11, November 2024.
Flumioxazin, a heme biosynthesis inhibitor and the active ingredient in the herbicide BroadStar, impairs the virulence of Ustilago maydis on maize. Abstract Pathogens must efficiently acquire nutrients from host tissue to proliferate, and strategies to block pathogen access therefore hold promise for disease control.

Treatment of nonmelanoma skin cancer with pro‐differentiation agents and photodynamic therapy: Preclinical and clinical studies (Review)

open access: yesPhotochemistry and Photobiology, Volume 100, Issue 6, Page 1541-1560, November/December 2024.
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is now popular for treating nonmelanoma skin cancer (NMSC), but can be ineffective for larger skin tumors, mainly due to inadequate production of PpIX. Work over the past two decades has shown that differentiation‐promoting agents, including methotrexate, 5‐fluorouracil and vitamin D can be combined with ALA‐PDT as ...
