Although exogenous overexpression of a protein fused to a fluorescent tag can provide insight for the protein's function, it also can produce artifacts attributed to its upregulation and may not fully report the endogenous regulation of the protein of interest. To circumvent these issues, we adapted a protocol to label endogenous proteins with fluorescent tags in primary adult mouse neural stem cells . Here, we describe reagent construction, reagent delivery, and a screening strategy to isolate edited cells. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Morrow et al. (2020).

Resolvin D1 (RvD1) is an endogenous anti-inflammatory mediator that modulates the inflammatory response and promotes inflammation resolution. RvD1 has demonstrated neuroprotective effects in various central nervous system contexts; however, its role in the pathophysiological processes of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and the potential protective mechanisms when combined with exercise rehabilitation remain unclear. A mouse model of ICH was established using collagenase, and treatment with RvD1 combined with three weeks of exercise rehabilitation significantly improved neurological deficits, muscle strength, learning, and memory in ICH mice while reducing anxiety-like behavior.

Department of Gastroenterology, The Second Affiliated Hospital, Jiangxi Medical College, Nanchang University, Jiangxi, 330006, China.

Adipose tissue-derived adipokines facilitate inter-organ communication between adipose tissue and other organs. Omentin-1, an adipokine, has been implicated in the regulation of glucose and insulin metabolism. However, limited knowledge exists regarding the regulatory impact of endogenous omentin-1 on hepatic steatosis.

Enhancing the stability of krill oil through microencapsulation with endogenous krill protein and chitosan and application in senior milk powder.

Int J Biol Macromol

December 2024

Guangdong Provincial Key Laboratory of Nutraceuticals and Functional Foods, College of Food Sciences, South China Agricultural University, Guangzhou 510642, Guangdong, China. Electronic address:

Krill oil (KO) exhibits several biological actions, particularly providing distinct advantages for cognitive health in the aged. Nonetheless, its inadequate water solubility, pronounced flavor, and vulnerability to oxidative degradation restrict its utilization in the food sector. Encapsulation provides a solution, and the study of natural, suitable wall materials is crucial.

Exposure to reactive oxygen species (ROS) can induce DNA-protein crosslinks (DPCs), unusually bulky DNA lesions that block replication and transcription and play a role in aging, cancer, cardiovascular disease, and neurodegenerative disorders. Repair of DPCs depends on the coordinated efforts of proteases and DNA repair enzymes to cleave the protein component of the lesion to smaller DNA-peptide crosslinks which can be processed by tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterases 1 and 2, nucleotide excision and homologous recombination repair pathways. DNA-dependent metalloprotease SPRTN plays a role in DPC repair, and SPRTN-deficient mice exhibit an accelerated aging phenotype and develop liver cancer early in life.
