Sketching microprotein portraits

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The illustrations of intricate molecular machineries inside cells created by David Goodsell continue to inspire the scientific community. Here, we aim to extend his artworks to include microproteins, a newly recognized class of small proteins with less than 100 amino acids, encoded by small open reading frames.

T‐Cell Biology in the Female Reproductive Tract: Relevance to HIV Infection

American Journal of Reproductive Immunology, Volume 95, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Worldwide, most HIV infections occur across a mucosal surface during sexual contact, with women accounting for nearly half of reported new HIV infections across the globe in 2024. Most new infections in women and girls are believed to involve transmission across mucosal surfaces of the lower reproductive tract, which includes the vagina and ...

Immune endotypes in tuberculosis: Keys to decoding disease complexity

Journal of Internal Medicine, Volume 299, Issue 6, Page 670-693, June 2026.
Abstract Tuberculosis (TB) remains a major global health challenge, with multi‐drug antibiotic regimens as the current standard of care. While effective at killing Mycobacterium tuberculosis, these treatments do not resolve persistent inflammation, prevent lung damage, or reverse immune dysregulation that contribute to poor outcomes and disease ...

Comprehensive and Comparative Transcriptional Profiling of the Cell Wall Stress Response in Bacillus subtilis

Molecular Microbiology, Volume 125, Issue 6, Page 506-545, June 2026.
Transcriptional profiling of the primary cell envelope stress response (CESR) of Bacillus subtilis exposed to a range of cell wall‐targeting antimicrobials, combining RNAseq and high‐resolution tiling arrays. We revealed the complexity of the CESR, the contribution of extracytoplasmic function sigma factors (ECFs) and two‐component signal transduction ...

Psyllid Cysteine Cathepsins Directly Cleave the Outer Membrane Protein BamD of Citrus Huanglongbing Pathogen

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 3989-4004, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus (CLas), the causative agent of citrus Huanglongbing (HLB), is transmitted by Asian citrus psyllid, Diaphorina citri; however, the role of the insect's immune effectors in defending against CLas remains poorly understood. This study reveals that D.

Plant Peptides on the Rise: From Historical Insight to Future Applications

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 3777-3802, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Plant peptides constitute a rapidly expanding class of signalling molecules essential to plant physiology, mediating key processes such as development, stress adaptation, and immune responses. This review traces the history of plant peptide research, from the seminal discovery of systemin to the recent identification of non‐canonical peptides (

Evaluation of the Cutaneous Immunological Milieu Before and After Treatment With Meglumine Antimoniate in Dogs Naturally Affected by Leishmaniosis due to Leishmania infantum

Veterinary Dermatology, Volume 37, Issue 3, Page 455-463, June 2026.
Background: Canine leishmaniosis (CanL) is a zoonotic disease of variable severity. The typical immune response is driven by an exaggerated humoral immune response. Protective immunity is mediated by pro‐inflammatory cytokines that enhance macrophage leishmanicidal activity. Objective: To evaluate the cutaneous and the systemic immune responses as well

Molecular Clocks in Translational Roadmap for Circadian‐Based Therapeutics in Lung Diseases

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 10, 31 May 2026.
High‐amplitude circadian oscillations maintain lung immune and epithelial homeostasis. Chronic inflammation dampens peripheral clock amplitude, driving chronodisruption, barrier dysfunction, and remodeling. Clock‐targeted therapies re‐entrain the lung circadian clock, restore rhythmic immune resolution, and promote functional lung repair.

Characterization of the alpha defensin copy number variation in humans [PDF]

, 2012
Copy number variation (CNV) has been acknowledged as an important contributor to variation in the human genome, and copy-variable regions harbouring genes are interesting subjects of research for their potential phenotypic effects. However, despite the extensive and continuing discovery of CNVs, multiallelic loci remain technically challenging to ...
