DIURETIC AND ANTI-HYPERTENSIVE ACTIVITY OF CLERODENDRUM CHINENSE (OSBECK) MABB. AQUEOUS EXTRACT IN 8% SALT DIET INDUCED HYPERTENSIVE RATS.

J. I. Odimegwu, T. F. Okanlawon, O. E. Olayunji, I. Ismail

This study evaluates the anti-hypertensive and diuretic effects of Clerodendrum chinense aqueous extract in salt-induced hypertensive rats, finding significant blood pressure reduction and diuretic activity comparable to furosemide.

Polyphosphate uses mTOR, pyrophosphate, and Rho GTPase components to potentiate bacterial survival in Dictyostelium

R. J. Rahman, R. Rijal, S. Jing, T.-A. Chen, I. Ismail, R. H. Gomer

This paper identifies key components of the polyP signaling pathway in D. discoideum that inhibit bacterial killing, suggesting potential therapeutic targets for enhancing macrophage pathogen clearance.

Starvation induces extracellular accumulation of polyphosphate in Dictyostelium discoideum to inhibit macropinocytosis, phagocytosis, and exocytosis

R. Rijal, I. Ismail, S. Jing, R. H. Gomer

This study shows that starvation in Dictyostelium discoideum increases extracellular polyphosphate, which inhibits macropinocytosis, phagocytosis, and exocytosis by reducing membrane fluidity.
