DAMPs, PAMPs, and Alarmins: From Mechanism to Therapy
This review synthesizes the expanding biology of PAMPs and DAMPs, from their molecular sources and sensing mechanisms to regulatory networks that govern inflammation and homeostasis. Spanning from classical immune activation to trained immunity and interorgan communication, we highlight the interplay between PAMPs and DAMPs and their context‐dependent ...

Adherens junction proteins in tumour progression
The loss of epithelial differentiation in carcinomas, which is accompanied by higher mobility and invasiveness of the tumour cells, is often a consequence of reduced intercellular adhesion.

This study identifies Igκ expression in cardiomyocytes, with predominant localization at ICDs. Cardiomyocyte‐specific Igκ knockout induces cardiac dysfunction and ICDs structural disorganization. Mechanistically, Igκ stabilizes plectin to facilitate desmin‒actin network assembly and anchor desmin to DSP, which is critical for maintaining ICDs ...

A simple probabilistic AlphaFold interaction score
Abstract AlphaFold has enabled large‐scale prediction of protein–protein and protein–nucleic acid complexes, but ranking and assessing the quality of predicted models remain challenging. Existing confidence scores are often highly parametrized and provide limited interpretability.
