Serine and Glycine Physiology Reversibly Modulate Retinal and Peripheral Nerve Function

Reversible Regulation of Retinal and Peripheral Nerve Function: Physiological Study of Serine and Glycine Background and Research Motivation Macular Telangiectasia Type 2 (Mactel) is an age-related retinal disease characterized by central vision loss. The molecular etiology of this disease is complex and is primarily associated with the metabolism ...

Protein Lactylation and Metabolic Regulation of the Zoonotic Parasite Toxoplasma gondii

A Study on Protein Lactylation and Metabolic Regulation Reveals New Areas of Toxoplasma gondii Biology Background: Toxoplasma gondii is a globally distributed protozoan parasite that infects over 30% of the world’s population. It causes toxoplasmosis, a widespread zoonotic disease. The parasite has a complex life cycle, including sexual and asexual...

Dopaminylation of endothelial TPI1 suppresses ferroptotic angiocrine signals to promote lung regeneration over fibrosis

Dopamine Modification of TPI1 Inhibits Ferroptosis Signaling in Vascular Endothelial Cells, Promoting Lung Regeneration and Inhibiting Fibrosis Background The regenerative capability of the lung enables it to restore its original functional tissue after injury. However, if this regenerative process is disrupted, it often leads to maladaptive repair...

Oxidative Phosphorylation Regulates B Cell Effector Cytokines and Promotes Inflammation in Multiple Sclerosis

Oxidative Phosphorylation Regulates B Cell Effector Cytokines and Promotes Inflammation in Multiple Sclerosis Background Introduction In recent years, the antibody-independent functions of B cells in health and disease have become a research hotspot, particularly their ability to secrete different cytokines that can activate or downregulate local i...
