Functional Insight into hTRIR
Curr Mol Med. 2023 Oct 20. doi: 10.2174/0115665240260310231016112946. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe uncharacterized C19orf43 was discovered to be associated with hTR maturation. Our previous work indicated that C19orf43 cleaves distinct RNA types but not DNA. We then named it hTR-interacting RNase (hTRIR) (Uniprot: Q9BQ61). hTRIR works in a broad range of temperatures and pH without any divalent cations needed. hTRIR cleaves RNA at all four nucleotide sites but preferentially at purines. In addition, hTRIR digested both ends of methylated small RNA, which suggested that it was a putative ribonuclease. Later, we designe...

Stem Cell-Based or Cell-Free Gene Therapy in Chondrocyte Regeneration: Synovial Fluid-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cell Exosomes
CONCLUSION: It was concluded that hSF-MSCs and exosomes can be used in the treatment of cartilage damage, and hsa-miR-155-5p can be used as a target miRNA in a new gene therapy approach because it increases the therapeutic effect on cartilage damage.PMID:37859306 | DOI:10.2174/0115665240266016231014081916 (Source: Current Molecular Medicine)

Astragaloside IV Protects Against IL-1 β-Induced Chondrocyte Damage via Activating Autophagy
CONCLUSION: Our findings suggest that AS-IV mitigates inflammatory chondrocyte injury, safeguarding chondrocytes through a potential autophagy suppression mechanism. These results imply that AS-IV could offer preventive advantages for OA.PMID:37855351 | DOI:10.2174/0115665240249154231016080115 (Source: Current Molecular Medicine)

The Role of Tissue Factor In Signaling Pathways of Pathological Conditions and Angiogenesis
In this study, we have reviewed the TF signaling pathways in different pathological conditions, such as wound injury, asthma, cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), viral infections, cancer and pathological angiogenesis. Angiogenic activities of TF are critical in the repair of wound injuries and aggressive behavior of tumors, which are mainly performed by the actions of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF1-α). Pro-inflammatory effects of TF have been reported in asthma, CVDs and viral infections, including COVID-19, which result in tissue hypertrophy, inflammation, and thrombosis. TF-FV...

Deciphering Molecular Mechanisms of Carbon TetrachlorideInduced Hepatotoxicity (Fibrosis): A Brief Systematic Review
Curr Mol Med. 2023 Oct 5. doi: 10.2174/0115665240257603230919103539. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe liver plays a critical role in metabolic processes, making it vulnerable to injury. Researchers often study carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)-induced hepatotoxicity in model organisms because it closely resembles human liver damage. This toxicity occurs due to the activation of various cytochromes, including CYP2E1, CYP2B1, CYP2B2, and possibly CYP3A, which produce the trichloromethyl radical (CCl3*). CCl3* can attach to biological molecules such as lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids, impairing lipid metabolism and leading to ...
