Acute Neurological Manifestations in COVID‐19 Are Associated With Complement Activation and Glia‐Promoted Neuroinflammation

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 98, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Pathophysiological mechanisms of neurological manifestations in COVID‐19 are not fully known yet. In this case‐control study, proteomic analysis was used to characterize cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples from COVID‐19 patients with acute neurological manifestations primarily categorized as: isolated refractory headache (n = 12), encephalopathy

EvoMut: A computational framework for engineering oxidative stability in proteins

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Amino acid oxidation is a major cause of protein instability and loss of function in therapeutic and industrial settings. Although methionine, cysteine, tryptophan, tyrosine, histidine, lysine, and arginine residues are widely recognized as oxidation‐prone, only a subset of such residues is dominant functional hotspots, and not all are ...

Dapagliflozin Attenuates NKCC2 Protein Expression and Alleviates Diabetic Kidney Disease in Salt Loaded‐Hypertensive Diabetic Db/Db Mice

FASEB BioAdvances, Volume 8, Issue 10, October 2026.
In salt‐loaded, hypertensive diabetic db/db mice with diabetic kidney disease, dapagliflozin lowered blood pressure and reduced tubular and glomerular injury. Mechanistically, dapagliflozin increased cullin E3 ligase abundance, promoting degradation of NKCC2.

β‐Catenin‐Deficient Intervertebral Disc Cells Reduce Chemotactic Transcription and Myeloid Cell Recruitment to Injured Discs of Mice

Aging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 10, October 2026.
(Left) In young discs, Wnt signaling‐replete nucleus pulposus cells secrete ECM components and, upon disc injury, cytokines to recruit myeloid cells. (Right) Whereas, β‐catenin‐deficient disc cells, modeling age‐related absence of Wnt signaling, exhibit reduced anabolic activity and, upon disc injury, secrete fewer pro‐inflammatory cytokines and ...
