Endothelial extracellular vesicles contain protective proteins and rescue ischemia-reperfusion injury in a human heart-on-chip

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from various stem cell sources induce cardioprotective effects during ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI). These have been attributed mainly to the antiapoptotic, proangiogenic, microRNA (miRNA) cargo within the stem cell ...

From structure to application: studies on adenine-, pyrene- and lanthanide-based metal-organic frameworks

Andrzej Gladysiak

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are coordination polymer materials in which inorganic metal ions or clusters are linked with multitopic organic ligands by means of coordination bonds. Their structural versatility allows for design of materials based on pre ...

Glucocorticoid deficiency causes transcriptional and post-transcriptional reprogramming of glutamine metabolism

Benjamin Dieter Weger, Meltem Weger

Background: Deficient glucocorticoid biosynthesis leading to adrenal insufficiency is life-threatening and is associated with significant co-morbidities. The affected pathways underlying the pathophysiology of co-morbidities due to glucocorticoid deficienc ...

Renal metabolism of hyperpolarized [1-13C]aspartate

Hikari Ananda Infinity Yoshihara

Aspartic acid is involved in several central metabolic pathways, including gluconeogenesis, the urea cycle, de novo nucleotide synthesis, the malate-aspartate shuttle, and via transmination the TCA cycle. The conversion in vivo of hyperpolarized [1-13C]pyr ...

The Inosine Monophosphate Dehydrogenase, GuaB2, Is a Vulnerable New Bactericidal Drug Target for Tuberculosis

Stewart Cole, John McKinney, Neeraj Dhar, Claudia Sala, Ruben Hartkoorn, Anthony Vocat, Andréanne Lupien, Raphael Christopher Sommer

VCC234718, a molecule with growth inhibitory activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), was identified by phenotypic screening of a 15344-compound library. Sequencing of a VCC234718-resistant mutant identified a Y487C substitution in the inosine mo ...

Nicotinamide riboside kinases display redundancy in mediating nicotinamide mononucleotide and nicotinamide riboside metabolism in skeletal muscle cells

Carlos Canto Alvarez, Joanna Ratajczak

Objective: Augmenting nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD(+)) availability may protect skeletal muscle from age-related metabolic decline. Dietary supplementation of NAD(+) precursors nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) and nicotinamide riboside (NR) appe ...

Array-based sensing of purine derivatives with fluorescent dyes

Kay Severin, Ziya Köstereli

Natural and synthetic purine derivatives such as caffeine, theophylline, 6-mercaptopurine and 8-chlorotheophylline are important drugs. Due to the structural similarity of these compounds, it is intrinsically difficult to prepare chemosensors for their sel ...

Design of computational retrobiosynthesis tools for the design of de novo synthetic pathways

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Noushin Hadadi

Designing putative metabolic pathways is of great interest in synthetic biology. Retrobiosynthesis is a discipline that involves the design, evaluation, and optimization of de novo biosynthetic pathways for the production of high-value compounds and drugs ...

Fate of a Graphene Flake: A New Route toward Fullerenes Disclosed with Ab Initio Simulations

Wanda Andreoni, Fabio Pietrucci

The top-down formation of a fullerene from a graphene flake is investigated via extensive ab initio molecular dynamics simulations in the range 300-3000 K, accelerated by metadynamics. Topological (SPRINT) coordinates are used to ensure a prejudice-free ex ...
