Benzochalcogenodiazoles, Synthesis, and Applications in Medicinal Chemistry and Photomedicine
Benzochalcogenodiazoles (BXD) including benzoxadiazoles, benzothiadiazoles, and benzoselenadiazoles are initially mainly designed for optoelectronic materials as electron‐deficient cores. Nevertheless, they are now extending their application to biology.

Mitochondria‐Nuclear Crosstalk: Orchestrating mtDNA Maintenance
ABSTRACT The mitochondria (mt) and nucleus engage in a dynamic bidirectional communication to maintain cellular homeostasis, regulating energy production, stress response, and cell fate. Anterograde signaling directs mt function, while retrograde signaling conveys metabolic and stress‐related changes from mt to the nucleus. Central to this crosstalk is

Selenium (Se) is a crucial element in selenoproteins, key biomolecules for physiological function in vivo. Central nervous system can express all 25 kinds of selenoproteins, which protect neurons by reducing oxidative stress and inflammatory response. Neuroprotection is being investigated through the biological study of Se.

Saikosaponin b1 attenuates liver fibrosis by competitively disrupting the interaction between signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) and glioma‐associated oncogene‐1 (Gli1) in the activated hepatic stellate cells (HSCs). The blocked interaction of STAT3 and Gli1 promotes the degradation of Gli1, inhibits Gli1 transcriptional ...

Inhibition of glucocorticoid-induced apoptosis by targeting splice variants of \u3ci\u3eBIM\u3c/i\u3e mRNA with small interfering RNA and short hairpin RNA. [PDF]
Glucocorticoids (GCs) induce apoptosis in lymphocytes and are effective agents for the treatment of leukemia. The activated glucocorticoid receptor (GR) initiates a transcriptional program leading to caspase activation and cell death, but the critical ...

Nanotechnology in brain cancer treatment: The role of gold nanoparticles as therapeutic enhancers
This review highlights the potential of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) in overcoming the blood‐brain barrier (BBB) to improve brain tumor treatment. By enabling targeted drug delivery and enhancing therapies like radiotherapy, phototherapy, and chemotherapy, AuNPs offer a promising approach for safer, more effective treatments of glioblastoma and other ...

The G protein-coupled receptor P2RY8 and follicular dendritic cells promote germinal center confinement of B cells, whereas S1PR3 can contribute to their dissemination. [PDF]
The orphan Gα13-coupled receptor P2RY8 is mutated in human germinal center (GC)-derived lymphomas and was recently found to promote B cell association with GCs in a mouse model. Here we establish that P2RY8 promotes clustering of activated B cells within

Targeting the Menin–KMT2A interaction in leukemia: Lessons learned and future directions
Abstract Chromosomal rearrangements involving the Mixed Lineage Leukemia gene (MLL1, KMT2A) are defining a genetically distinct subset in about 10% of human acute leukemias. Translocations involving the KMT2A‐locus at chromosome 11q23 are resulting in the formation of a chimeric oncogene, where the N‐terminal part of KMT2A is fused to a variety of ...
