Molecular Mechanism of the IRF1/NFE2L1‐DT/ALKBH5/Cx43 Axis in Radiation‐Induced Injury in Vascular Endothelial Cells Through Pyroptosis

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, Volume 42, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Radiotherapy effectively eradicates tumor cells but can also trigger pyroptotic damage in vascular endothelial cells. This study investigates the role of interferon regulatory factor 1 (IRF1) in radiation‐induced endothelial injury, aiming to provide mechanistic insights for optimizing radiotherapy.

Horizontal Gene Transfer and Genome Rearrangements Shape Bacterial Adaptation for Bioremediation

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 7, July 2026.
Exposure to xenobiotics triggers genome evolution and horizontal gene transfer (HGT), driving the acquisition of novel catabolic functions. These genomic adaptations provide a competitive fitness advantage that reshapes microbial community structure and enhances biodegradation impact.

Methyltransferase‐Like 14 Promotes the Angiogenesis of Hepatocellular Carcinoma via Targeting Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor A

Cancer Reports, Volume 9, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background N6‐methyladenosine (m6A) modification is a pivotal epitranscriptomic regulator implicated in tumor progression. As a core component of the m6A methyltransferase complex, METTL14 is known to suppress tumorigenesis; however, its specific role in tumor angiogenesis remains elusive. Given that Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor A (VEGFA)

Vascular Calcification: Mechanisms, Models, and Therapies

iNew Medicine, Volume 2, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Vascular calcification represents an active multifactorial process that mirrors several key features of skeletal bone mineralization. Clinically, it is characterized by diminished arterial compliance and increased arterial wall stiffness, both of which serve as independent predictors of significant adverse cardiovascular events.

Genome-Wide Identification and Expression Analysis of the AlkB Homolog Gene Family in Tamarix chinensis

Forests
Tamarix chinensis (T. chinensis), an esteemed salt-tolerant plant, holds significant importance in elucidating mechanisms of plant stress adaptation. The ALKBH genes family, which is involved in RNA N6-methyladenosine (m6A) demethylation, plays a crucial role in plant growth, development, and stress responses.
