Searching inhibitors for three important proteins of COVID-19 through molecular docking studies [PDF]
The lack of recommended drugs or vaccines to deal with the COVID-19 is the main concern of this pandemic. The approved drugs for similar health problems, drugs under clinical trials, and molecules from medicinal plants extracts are investigated randomly to deal with the COVID-19 infection.

This study highlights the critical role of IRF8 in the development of AAA. IRF8 activation promotes the differentiation of cDC1s, which in turn recruit and activate CD8+ T cells, contributing to aortic wall degradation. The study identifies the IRF8‐cDC1‐CD8+ T cell axis as a key pathway in AAA progression, offering new potential therapeutic targets to

Angiotensin II-Induced Cardiovascular Fibrosis Is Attenuated by NO-Sensitive Guanylyl Cyclase1
In the NO/cGMP signaling cascade, relevant in the cardiovascular system, two NO-sensitive guanylyl cyclase (NO-GC) isoforms are responsible for NO-dependent cGMP generation.

Review of COVID-19 Antibody Therapies [PDF]
Under the global health emergency caused by coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), efficient and specific therapies are urgently needed. Compared with traditional small-molecular drugs, antibody therapies are relatively easy to develop and as specific as vaccines in targeting severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), and thus attract ...

Decoding Blastocystis‐Driven Mechanisms in Gut Microbiota and Host Metabolism
Blastocystis, a prevalent gut microbe, interacts with the host through metabolic and immune pathways, influencing cardiometabolic health. This perspective explores its role in modulating short‐chain fatty acid production, tryptophan metabolism, and immune signaling, potentially impacting cholesterol absorption, glucose metabolism, and vascular health ...

Quantum Optical Immunoassay: Upconversion Nanoparticle-based Neutralizing Assay for COVID-19 [PDF]
In a viral pandemic, a few important tests are required for successful containment of the virus and reduction in severity of the infection. Among those tests, a test for the neutralizing ability of an antibody is crucial for assessment of population immunity gained through vaccination, and to test therapeutic value of antibodies made to counter the ...

Canopy FGF signaling regulator 2 (CNPY2) which is contributed to ERS is upregulated in the renal tubules of patients with diabetic nephropathy (DN). Mechanistically, CNPY2 may regulate ferroptosis and MAM integrity in renal tubular epithelial cells through PERK/ATF4/CHAC1 pathway, thereby promoting the progression of DN.
