Gene therapy is revolutionizing treatment paradigms for haemoglobinopathies, establishing a translational framework for disorders that impact red blood cell development. In their paper, Joshi et al. describe the preclinical and early clinical landscape of gene therapies for non‐haemoglobinopathy erythroid disorders and highlight common thematic ...

α-amanitin induces hepatotoxicity via PPAR-γ inhibition and NLRP3 inflammasome activation
Mushroom poisoning, predominantly caused by α-amanitin, is a critical food safety concern in worldwide, with severe cases leading to hepatotoxicity and fatalities.

A guide to transcriptional cyclin‐dependent kinases in cancer
Transcriptional cyclin‐dependent‐kinases (tCDKs) facilitate gene expression by promoting RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) progression through discrete phases of the transcription cycle. Aberrant tCDK activity is detectable in different human cancers, thereby contributing to de‐regulated gene expression programs that drive oncogenic phenotypes.

Mitochondria is the hub of apoptosis in various diseases. The disruption of mitochondrial structure (including membrane rupture, cristae remodeling, and mitochondrial membrane lipid redistribution), the imbalance of mitochondrial dynamics (including fusion and fission, autophagy), the release, disruption, and mutation of mitochondria DNA, as well as ...

Viroid‐Derived siRNAs: Minimal RNAs Driving Multiscale Perturbations of Host Regulatory Systems
Tiny circular RNAs known as viroids can profoundly reshape plant biology without encoding proteins. Through the production of regulatory small RNAs, they translate RNA structure into signals that connect molecular interactions with systemic disease outcomes.

Amanitin poisoning still has no particular, effective antidote. Erdosteine has been shown to protect numerous tissues, particularly those in the liver. This study investigates the potential therapeutic effects of erdosteine on alpha-, beta- and gamma-amanitin-induced hepatotoxicity in in vitro models.

The mechanisms underlying α-amanitin resistance in Drosophila melanogaster: a microarray analysis.
The rapid evolution of toxin resistance in animals has important consequences for the ecology of species and our economy. Pesticide resistance in insects has been a subject of intensive study; however, very little is known about how Drosophila species ...

The occurrence of ansamers in the synthesis of cyclic peptides
The occurrence of isomers of the bicyclic octapeptide α-amanitin, which presents a macrolactam with a tryptathionine cross-link forming a handle, has been reported under the term of atropoisomers.
