Serum levels of specialised pro-resolving molecule pathways are greatly increased in SARS-CoV-2 patients and correlate with markers of the adaptive immune response (2021)
Preprint / Working Paper
Turnbull, J., Jha, R., Ortori, C. A., Lunt, E., Tighe, P. J., Irving, W. L., Gohir, S. A., Kim, D.-H., Valdes, A. M., Tarr, A. W., Barrett, D. A., & Chapman, V. Serum levels of specialised pro-resolving molecule pathways are greatly increased in SARS-CoV-2 patients and correlate with markers of the adaptive immune response

Background Specialised pro-resolution molecules (SPMs) halt the transition to chronic pathogenic inflammation. We aimed to quantify serum levels of pro- and anti-inflammatory bioactive lipids in SARS-CoV-2 patients, and to identify potential relation...

Culture degeneration reduces sex-related gene expression, alters metabolite production and reduces insect pathogenic response in cordyceps militaris (2021)
Journal Article
Wellham, P. A. D., Hafeez, A., Gregori, A., Brock, M., Kim, D. H., Chandler, D., & de Moor, C. H. (2021). Culture degeneration reduces sex-related gene expression, alters metabolite production and reduces insect pathogenic response in cordyceps militaris. Microorganisms, 9(8), Article 1559. https://doi.org/10.3390/microorganisms9081559

Cordyceps militaris is an entomopathogenic ascomycete, known primarily for infecting lepidopteran larval (caterpillars) and pupal hosts. Cordycepin, a secondary metabolite produced by this fungus has anti-inflammatory properties and other pharmacolog...

Journal Article
Dahabiyeh, L. A., Mahmoud, N. N., Al-Natour, M. A., Safo, L., Kim, D.-H., Khalil, E. A., & Abu-Dahab, R. (2021). Phospholipid-Gold Nanorods Induce Energy Crisis in MCF-7 Cells: Cytotoxicity Evaluation Using LC-MS-Based Metabolomics Approach. Biomolecules, 11(3), Article 364. https://doi.org/10.3390/biom11030364

Phospholipid-modified gold nanorods (phospholipid-GNRs) have demonstrated drastic cytotoxicity towards MCF-7 breast cancer cells compared to polyethylene glycol-coated GNRs (PEG-GNRs). In this study, the mechanism of cytotoxicity of phospholipid-GNRs...
