Article Abstract

Cell envelope proteins in bacteria are typically difficult to characterize due to their low abundance, poor solubility, and the problematic isolation of pure surface fraction with only minimal contamination. Here we describe a method for cell membrane fractionation followed by mass spectrometry-based proteomics to analyze and determine protein abundance in bacterial membranes.

Skeletal muscle atrophy and weakness are major contributors to morbidity, prolonged recovery, and long-term disability across a wide range of diseases. Atrophy is caused by breakdown of sarcomeric proteins resulting in loss of muscle mass and strength. Molecular mechanism underlying the onset of muscle atrophy and its progression have been analysed in patients, mice, and cell culture but the complementarity of these model systems remains to be explored.

Galectins in Inflammatory Skin Diseases: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Potential.

J Invest Dermatol

September 2025

Department of Dermatology, Keck School of Medicine of University of South California, Los Angeles, California, USA; Institute of Biomedical Sciences, Academia Sinica, Taipei, Taiwan. Electronic address:

This review examines the roles of galectins, a family of animal lectins, in inflammatory skin diseases, focusing on their involvement in the pathogenesis of psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, contact dermatitis, and common autoimmune diseases. We highlight the differential expression of galectins in lesional skin and their correlation with inflammatory mediators. In addition, we summarize the functions and mechanisms of action of endogenous galectins, as revealed through studies of genetically engineered cell lines and experimental animals.

Zika and dengue viruses differentially modulate host mRNA processing factors defining its virulence.

NAR Mol Med

April 2025

Tumor Vaccine and Biotechnology Branch, Division of Cellular Therapy 2, Office of Cellular Therapy and Human Tissue, Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research, U.S. Food and Drug Administration, Silver Spring, MD 20993, United States.

Changes in global climate have contributed to increased tick and mosquito (vector) populations and subsequent vector-borne flavivirus infections in humans. This increase poses a threat to the safety of human-derived biologics such as cell and gene therapy. We conducted time-course transcriptomic and protein analyses to uncover host molecular factors driving the virulence of Zika virus (ZIKV) and Dengue virus (DENV) in relation to host defense mechanisms, as these viruses have caused recent flavivirus outbreaks.
