Published in 2019 at "Methods in molecular biology"

DOI: 10.1007/978-1-4939-8988-1_11

Abstract: Calpain, an intracellular Ca2+-dependent cysteine protease, is known to play a role in a wide range of metabolic pathways through limited proteolysis of its substrates. However, only a limited number of these substrates are currently… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Methods in molecular biology"

DOI: 10.1007/978-1-4939-8988-1_12

Abstract: As opposed to proteasome-mediated proteolysis that leads to protein degradation, calpain proteases carry out limited proteolytic cleavages of their substrates. The cleavage of some substrates can produce active fragments that perform functions that are different… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Basic Research in Cardiology"

DOI: 10.1007/s00395-019-0726-1

Abstract: We and others have reported that calpain-1 was increased in myocardial mitochondria from various animal models of heart disease. This study investigated whether constitutive up-regulation of calpain-1 restricted to mitochondria induced myocardial injury and heart… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Metabolic brain disease"

DOI: 10.1007/s11011-021-00755-y

Abstract: Some mechanisms of neuronal degeneration in endotoxinemia are already well described, but need to be detailed. In this study, we tested the effect of a single intraperitoneal injection of a LPS sub-septic dose (1 mg/kg of… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Biochemical and biophysical research communications"

DOI: 10.1016/j.bbrc.2018.01.131

Abstract: Gingivitis, the mildest form of periodontitis, is generally considered a consequence of prolonged exposure of the gingiva to periodontal pathogens. On the other hand, several epidemiologic reports have suggested that other etiologic factors such as… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Biochemical and biophysical research communications"

DOI: 10.1016/j.bbrc.2018.08.144

Abstract: Calpains are Ca2+-dependent cysteine proteases that are widely distributed in animal tissues and modulate a variety of cellular processes. There are 15 members of the calpain family in mammals. In animal cells, there are three… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "European Journal of Pharmacology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.ejphar.2017.03.058

Abstract: Abstract Our previous studies demonstrated that intense noise‐induced hearing loss might be at least in part due to an oxidative stress‐induced decrease in the level of gap junction‐composing protein connexins in the spiral ligament (SL)… read more here.
