Autophagy Regulates Foxo1 Protein Abundance to Control Hepatic Glucose Production in Glucagon Signalling.

Findings identify autophagy-regulated amino acid homeostasis as a critical mechanism that sustains Foxo1 protein abundance and supports glucagon-responsive hepatic metabolic adaptation during fasting.

Structural and Evolutionary Analysis of Non-specific Lipid Transfer Proteins (nsLTPs) in Cereus (Cactaceae).

The results provide the first integrated characterization of nsLTPs in Cereus, supporting a gate-modulation hypothesis in which structural variation concentrated at tunnel entrances may contribute to functional diversification while preserving the conserved nsLTP fold (four-helix scaffold).

Targeting protein misfolding and aggregation in neurodegenerative diseases: challenges for the identification and validation of targets for small molecules.

The mechanisms of protein folding, misfolding, aggregation, and prion-like propagation in major neurodegenerative proteinopathies, including amyloid-beta and tau in Alzheimer's disease, alpha-synuclein in synucleinopathies, TDP-43 and FUS in ALS/FTLD, polyglutamine-expanded proteins, prion proteins, and rare hereditary...

Studies on Phenylalanine Metabolism in Enhancing the ε-Polylysine-Mediated Killing Effect of Oxytetracycline-resistant Aeromonas hydrophila.

AIMS Aeromonas hydrophila is a zoonotic pathogen, and its prevalence of drug resistance underscores the urgency of elucidating alternative bactericidal strategies. This study employed the oxytetracycline-resistant strain OTC-A01 to investigate the bactericidal mechanism of ε-polylysine (ε-PL). METHODS AND RESULTS Wit...

Resistance characterization and potential resistance mechanism of cyromazine, a moulting disruptor, to Drosophila melanogaster.

BACKGROUND Moulting is a crucial process in the growth and development of insects and is also a key focus in the development of insecticides. Cyromazine, a moulting disruptor, is widely used to control dipteran pests, yet its mechanism of action and the genetic basis of resistance remain unclear. This study aimed to sy...

Retardation of human insulin amyloid fibrillation by vitamin B1

Inspired by the protein–vitamin interactions reported in the literature, the present work explored three vitamin B complexes, viz., vitamins B1, B6 and B12, and separately investigated their amyloid inhibitory activities on insulin, showing the considerable amyloid inhibitory activity of thiamine on insulin aggregation...

Salivary Neuropeptide Y, Interleukin-18, Tight Junction Proteins and Malondialdehyde as a Neuroimmune-Barrier Panel in Periodontitis

Salivary neuropeptide Y, interleukin-18 and malondialdehyde are independently associated with periodontitis, whereas salivary tight junction proteins track disease severity without independent association, consistent with downstream barrier injury.

Colorimetric/chemiluminescent vertical flow immunoassay based on multifunctional cobalt–gold bimetallic nanoclusters for Brucella antibody detection and deep learning-assisted semiquantitative analysis

A colorimetric/chemiluminescent vertical flow immunoassay (VFI) for Brucellosis was developed using glutathione-protected cobalt–gold nanoclusters conjugated with staphylococcal protein A (GSH@Co–AuNCs–SPA) as multifunctional catalytic immunoprobes. The nanocluster probe integrates antibody recognition with peroxidase-...

PanRes: A database of latent and acquired antimicrobial resistance allowing 3D-based protein homology search

This work developed PanRes, a curated resistance database of 11,717 genes integrating acquired and latent determinants of antibiotic, biocide, and metal resistance within a unified ontology, and predicted representative protein structures and clustered them by structural similarity.

Enhancing collagen biosynthesis in mammalian cells through hypoxia-mimetic prolyl hydroxylase inhibition

Collagen, the most abundant protein in the extracellular matrix of mammalian cells, is a key biomaterial in various biotechnological and therapeutic applications, such as tissue engineering and regeneration, cosmetics, and cultivated meat. Despite the increasing demand for culture-based collagen, it is still mainly p...
