Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the gradual loss of midbrain dopaminergic neurons in association with aggregation α-synuclein. Oxidative damage has been widely implicated this disease, though mechanisms involved remain elusive. Here, we demonstrated that preferential accumulation peroxidized phospholipids and antioxidant enzyme glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) were responsible for vulnerability progressive motor dysfunctions mouse model PD. We also...
Abstract Covalent probes coupled with chemical proteomics represent a powerful method for investigating small molecule and protein interactions. However, the creation of reactive warhead within various ligands to form covalent has been major obstacle. Herein, we report convenient robust process assemble unique electrophile, an α- acyloxyenamide, through one-step late-stage coupling reaction. This procedure demonstrates remarkable tolerance towards other functional groups facilitates...
Endocannabinoids (ECs) and cannabinoids are very lipophilic molecules requiring the presence of cytosolic binding proteins that chaperone these to intracellular targets. While three different fatty acid (FABP3, -5, -7) serve this function in brain, relatively little is known about how such hydrophobic ECs transported within liver. The most prominent hepatic FABP, liver protein (FABP1 or L-FABP), has high affinity for arachidonic (ARA) ARA-CoA, suggesting FABP1 may also bind ARA-derived (AEA...
While profiling the lipidome of mouse brain by mass spectrometry, we discovered a novel family N-acylphosphatidylserine (N-acyl-PS) molecules. These N-acyl-PS species were enriched DEAE-cellulose column chromatography, and they then characterized accurate measurements, tandem liquid chromatography/mass comparison to an authentic standard. Mouse molecules are heterogeneous constitute about 0.1% total lipid. In addition various ester-linked fatty acyl chains on their glycerol backbones,...
Covalent inhibitors with an electrophilic warhead have received considerable attention due to their remarkable pharmacological properties. However, the in covalent drugs is often α, β-unsaturated amide, and targets are mainly cysteine or lysine residues. Thus, development of novel electrophiles that can target other amino acids highly desirable. Ynamide, a useful versatile building block, commonly employed construction various compounds organic synthesis. The performance this functional...
Dynamic brain network has the advantage over static in characterizing variation pattern of functional connectivity, and it attracted increasing attention disease diagnosis. However, most existing dynamic networks analysis methods rely on extracting features from independent divided by sliding windows, making them hard to reveal high-order evolution laws networks. Additionally, they cannot effectively extract spatio-temporal topology In this paper, we propose use optimal transport (OT) theory...
Abstract Altered expression of Urea Cycle (UC) enzymes occurs in many tumors, resulting a metabolic hallmark termed as UC dysregulation. Polyamines are synthesized from ornithine, and polyamine synthetic genes elevated various tumors. However, the underlying deregulations UC/ synthesis cancer remain elusive. Here, we characterized hypoxia-induced lncRNA LVBU (lncRNA regulation via BCL6/urea cycle) that is highly expressed colorectal (CRC) correlates with poor prognosis. Increased promoted...
Chemical cross-linking of proteins coupled with mass spectrometry analysis (CXMS) is a powerful method for the study protein structure and protein-protein interactions (PPIs). However, chemical probes used in CXMS are limited to bidentate reactive warheads, available zero-length cross-linkers restricted 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide hydrochloride/N-hydroxysuccinimide (EDC/NHS) 4-(4,6-dimethoxy-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)-4-methylmorpholinium chloride (DMTMM). To alleviate this...
Abstract Colorectal cancer (CRC) is among the most prevalent and deadly cancers worldwide. The Yes‐associated protein 1 (YAP1) frequently dysregulated in cancers, contributing to stemness, chemoresistance, cancer‐related death. However, strategies directly targeting YAP1 have not yet been successful because of lack active binding pockets unregulated toxicity. In this study, our Food Drug Administration (FDA)‐approved drug screening reveals that abemaciclib, a cyclin‐dependent kinase 4/6...
TRIB3, a pseudokinase, was previously studied within only some specific cancer types, leaving its comprehensive functions in pan-cancer contexts largely unexplored. Here, we performed an integrated analysis of
Activating mutations in NRAS account for 15–20% of melanoma, yet effective anti-NRAS therapies are still lacking. In this study, we unveil the casein kinase 1δ (CK1δ) as an uncharacterized regulator oncogenic mutations, specifically Q61R and Q61K, which most prevalent melanoma. The genetic ablation or pharmacological inhibition CK1δ markedly destabilizes mutants suppresses their functions. Moreover, identify USP46 a bona fide deubiquitinase mutants. Mechanistically, directly phosphorylates...
