Inflammatory Cyclooxygenase Activity and PGE.

Current immunology reviews

Johansson JU, Woodling NS, Shi J, Andreasson KI.
PMID: 28413375
Curr Immunol Rev. 2015 Aug;11(2):125-131. doi: 10.2174/1573395511666150707181414.

The inflammatory response is a fundamental driving force in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). In the setting of accumulating immunogenic Aß peptide assemblies, microglia, the innate immune cells of the brain, generate a non-resolving immune response and fail...

Clin Proteomics. 2016 Feb 25;13:4. doi: 10.1186/s12014-016-9104-2. eCollection 2016.

BACKGROUND: Alzheimer's disease is the most common form of dementia. An increasing body of evidence suggests that endo-lysosomal dysfunction is a pathogenic mechanism of Alzheimer's disease. Thus there is a potential for proteins involved in the normal function of...

Classification of self-assembling protein nanoparticle architectures for applications in vaccine design.

Royal Society open science

Indelicato G, Burkhard P, Twarock R.
PMID: 28484626
R Soc Open Sci. 2017 Apr 26;4(4):161092. doi: 10.1098/rsos.161092. eCollection 2017 Apr.

We introduce here a mathematical procedure for the structural classification of a specific class of self-assembling protein nanoparticles (SAPNs) that are used as a platform for repetitive antigen display systems. These SAPNs have distinctive geometries as a consequence of...

Nematode Peptides with Host-Directed Anti-inflammatory Activity Rescue Caenorhabditis elegans from a Burkholderia pseudomallei Infection.

Frontiers in microbiology

Lim MP, Firdaus-Raih M, Nathan S.
PMID: 27672387
Front Microbiol. 2016 Sep 12;7:1436. doi: 10.3389/fmicb.2016.01436. eCollection 2016.

Burkholderia pseudomallei, the causative agent of melioidosis, is among a growing number of bacterial pathogens that are increasingly antibiotic resistant. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) have been investigated as an alternative approach to treat microbial infections, as generally, there is a...

Pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of subcutaneously administered PYY3-36 and its analogues in vivo.

Lancet (London, England)

Cegla J, Cuenco J, Minnion J, Ghourab S, Hostomska K, Tan T, Bloom S.
PMID: 26312850
Lancet. 2015 Feb 26;385:S28. doi: 10.1016/S0140-6736(15)60343-9.

BACKGROUND: Obesity is an emergent epidemic associated with morbidity, mortality, and psychosocial effects. One of the key gut hormones that controls appetite is peptide tyrosine-tyrosine 3-36 (PYY3-36) whose circulating half-life is only 8 min. A long-acting analogue of PYY3-36...

Inhibition of complement C3 and fibrinogen interaction: a potential novel therapeutic target to reduce cardiovascular disease in diabetes.

Lancet (London, England)

King R, Tiede C, Simmons K, Fishwick C, Tomlinson D, Ajjan R.
PMID: 26312879
Lancet. 2015 Feb 26;385:S57. doi: 10.1016/S0140-6736(15)60372-5.

BACKGROUND: Enhanced complement C3 incorporation into the fibrin network in diabetes is one mechanism for impaired fibrinolysis and increased thrombosis risk in this condition. Our aim was to develop new strategies to modulate fibrinolysis in diabetes by interfering with...

Hierarchical Analysis of Self-Assembled PEGylated Hexaphenylalanine Photoluminescent Nanostructures.

Chemistry (Weinheim an der Bergstrasse, Germany)

Diaferia C, Sibillano T, Balasco N, Giannini C, Roviello V, Vitagliano L, Morelli G, Accardo A.
PMID: 27706842
Chemistry. 2016 Nov 07;22(46):16586-16597. doi: 10.1002/chem.201604107. Epub 2016 Oct 05.

Despite the growing literature about diphenylalanine-based peptide materials, it still remains a challenge to delineate the theoretical insight into peptide nanostructure formation and the structural features that could permit materials with enhanced properties to be engineered. Herein, we report...

A conformationally restricted monofluorinated α-amino acid, (3-fluorobicyclo[1.1.1]pentyl)glycine (F-Bpg), was designed as a label for the structural analysis of membrane-bound peptides by solid-state

Towards the development of an enzyme replacement therapy for the metabolic disorder propionic acidemia.

Molecular genetics and metabolism reports

Darvish-Damavandi M, Ho HK, Kang TS.
PMID: 27504265
Mol Genet Metab Rep. 2016 Jul 27;8:51-60. doi: 10.1016/j.ymgmr.2016.06.009. eCollection 2016 Sep.

Propionic acidemia (PA) is a life-threatening disease caused by the deficiency of a mitochondrial biotin-dependent enzyme known as propionyl coenzyme-A carboxylase (PCC). This enzyme is responsible for degrading the metabolic intermediate, propionyl coenzyme-A (PP-CoA), derived from multiple metabolic pathways....

Proteinases, Their Extracellular Targets, and Inflammatory Signaling.

Pharmacological reviews

Ramachandran R, Altier C, Oikonomopoulou K, Hollenberg MD.
PMID: 27677721
Pharmacol Rev. 2016 Oct;68(4):1110-1142. doi: 10.1124/pr.115.010991.

Given that over 2% of the human genome codes for proteolytic enzymes and their inhibitors, it is not surprising that proteinases serve many physiologic-pathophysiological roles. In this context, we provide an overview of proteolytic mechanisms regulating inflammation, with a...
