Expression of kiwifruit-derived actinidin in leaves.
Front Plant Sci
January 2025
Department of Integrative Food, Bioscience and Biotechnology, Chonnam National University, Gwangju, Republic of Korea.
Kiwifruit ()-derived actinidin, a cysteine protease, is renowned for its meat-tenderizing and milk-clotting activities. Despite its potential in various biotechnological applications, an efficient expression platform for actinidin production has not yet been developed. Instead, actinidin has traditionally been purified directly from the fruits of various plants.

Background: Polydatin (3,4',5-trihydroxy-3-β-d-glucopyranoside, PD) is known for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Oxaliplatin (OXA)-based chemotherapy is the first-line treatment for metastatic and recurrent colorectal cancer (CRC). However, the lack of selectivity for normal cells often results in side effects.

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a multisystem metabolic disorder, marked by abnormal lipid accumulation and intricate inter-organ interactions, which contribute to systemic metabolic imbalances. NAFLD may progress through several stages, including simple steatosis (NAFL), non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), cirrhosis, and potentially liver cancer. This disease is closely associated with metabolic disorders driven by overnutrition, with key pathological processes including lipid dysregulation, impaired lipid autophagy, mitochondrial dysfunction, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, and local inflammation.

Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a crucial organelle associated with cellular homeostasis. Accumulation of improperly folded proteins results in ER stress, accompanied by the reaction involving triggering unfolded protein response (UPR). The UPR is mediated through ER membrane-associated sensors, such as protein kinase-like ER kinase (PERK), inositol-requiring transmembrane kinase/endoribonuclease 1α, and activating transcription factor 6 (ATF6).

Introduction: CD38, a regulator of intracellular calcium signalling, is highly expressed in immune cells. Mice lacking CD38 are very susceptible to acute bacterial infections, implicating CD38 in innate immune responses. The effects of CD38 inhibition on NLRP3 inflammasome activation in human primary monocytes and monocyte-derived macrophages have not been investigated.
