Homocysteine Exacerbates Pulmonary Fibrosis via Orchestrating Syntaxin 17 Homocysteinylation of Alveolar Type II Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The study identifies elevated homocysteine (Hcy) levels in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis patients' samples, with alveolar type 2 cells as the primary site of Hcy metabolism. Methionine synthase reductase downregulation in these cells exacerbates fibrosis, while folate administration reduces Hcy levels and alleviates fibrosis.

Oral Exposure to Food‐Grade Nanoparticles Poses a Risk of Alzheimer's Disease‐Like Symptoms by Triggering Autophagy Defects in Neurons

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Three food‐grade nanomaterials induce dysregulated RyR‐Ca2+ signaling through epigenetic modifications. This dysregulation impairs the autophagic clearance process, ultimately leading to abnormal Aβ deposition and increase phosphorylated tau levels.

Hepatic KLF9 Deficiency Inhibits Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA)‐Induced Polycystic Ovary Syndrome via Liver‐Ovary Axis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The study shows that liver is a previously unrecognized extraovarian organ that plays a key role about androgen homeostasis in the development of DHEA‐induced PCOS. DHEA is the most common precursor of active androgen, such as DHT, and KLF9 is required for the conversion of DHEA to DHT and hepatic KLF9 might be a potential therapeutic target for PCOS ...

Adenoviral targeting of malignant melanoma for fluorescence-guided surgery prevents recurrence in orthotopic nude-mouse models. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Malignant melanoma requires precise resection in order to avoid metastatic recurrence. We report here that the telomerase-dependent, green fluorescent protein (GFP)-containing adenovirus OBP-401 could label malignant melanoma with GFP in situ in ...

Acetylation of the Mitochondrial Chaperone GRP75 Governs ER‐Mitochondrial Calcium Homeostasis and Hepatocyte Insulin Resistance

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Overnutrition exacerbates insulin resistance (IR) and is linked to excessive mitochondrial protein acetylation. However, it remains unclear whether and how mitochondrial protein acetylation influences IR. GCN5L1‐dependent downregulation of GRP75 acetylation at K567/612 consequently enhances ER‐mitochondrial calcium flux and induces ER stress.

Refractory Status Epilepticus and Therapeutic Uncertainties: a Comprehensive Review on Targeting Neuroinflammation and Rationale for Developing a Platform Trial

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Refractory status epilepticus (RSE) is a life‐threatening neurological emergency with high rates of death and long‐term disability, but treatments for it are often based on limited evidence. RSE is now understood to involve neuroinflammation, which has led to the exploration of anti‐inflammatory and immunomodulatory agents like Tocilizumab. Traditional
