Abstract
Knowledge regarding the regulation of hepatic cytochrome P450 (P450) is crucial to the fields of drug therapy and drug development, as well as to our understanding of the mechanisms underlying the metabolic activation of toxic and carcinogenic compounds. P450 is a membrane-anchored protein that shows a variety of interaction with membrane phospholipids, which affect the membrane topology and catalytic activities of the protein. In particular, anionic phospholipids, nonbilayer forming lipids, and the degree of saturation of the lipid fatty acyl chain play important roles in the functional regulation of P450, as well as in the bilayer structure of the membrane. However, despite the importance of phospholipids in the regulation of P450s, the interaction of the protein with membrane phospholipids, and the membrane properties induced by phospholipids which regulate P450, are unclear. In this review, we describe the effect of the physicochemical properties of the phospholipid constituents of biological membranes on hepatic P450 catalytic activity, membrane insertion (and/or penetration), and structural changes.

Nutrition and Metabolism in Musculoskeletal Diseases
The musculoskeletal system consists mainly of cartilage, bone, muscles, tendons, connective tissue and ligaments. Balanced metabolism is of vital importance for the homeostasis of the musculoskeletal system. A series of musculoskeletal diseases (for example, sarcopenia, osteoporosis) are resulted from the dysregulated metabolism of the musculoskeletal system. Furthermore, metabolic diseases (such ...read more
Protein Folding, Aggregation and Liquid-Liquid Phase Separation
Protein folding, misfolding and aggregation remain one of the main problems of interdisciplinary science not only because many questions are still open, but also because they are important from the point of view of practical application. Protein aggregation and formation of fibrillar structures, for example, is a hallmark of a ...read more
