Published in 2023 at "Journal of Cellular Biochemistry"

DOI: 10.1002/jcb.30370

Abstract: Excitotoxicity, depletion of energy metabolites, and ionic imbalance are the major factors involved in neurodegeneration mediated through excitatory amino acid transporter‐2 (EAAT‐2) dysfunction in ischemic insult. Recent studies have revealed that ceftriaxone expresses EAAT‐2 via… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Protein Science"

DOI: 10.1002/pro.70285

Abstract: In this work, we investigate the conformational changes induced by a positive and negative nanosecond pulsed electric field (nsPEF) on the voltage‐sensing domain (VSD) of a voltage‐gated calcium channel. These conformational changes play a critical… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "European Biophysics Journal"

DOI: 10.1007/s00249-020-01453-w

Abstract: It has been known for decades that proteins undergo conformational changes in response to binding ligands. Such changes are usually accompanied by a loss of entropy by the protein, and thus conformational changes are integral… read more here.
