Chromatin Accessibility in Cancer: Biological Functions, Mechanisms, Therapeutic Potential, and Future Directions

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2026.
Cancer remains the leading cause of mortality worldwide, and drug resistance further underscores the urgent need for innovative therapeutic strategies. Chromatin, a stable yet highly dynamic nucleoprotein complex, serves as the primary carrier of genetic material in eukaryotic cells.

Bromodomain proteins IBD1 and IBD2 link histone acetylation to SWR1- and INO80-mediated H2A.Z regulation in Tetrahymena

open access: yesEpigenetics & Chromatin
Background INO80 and SWR1 are evolutionarily related ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling complexes that regulate the chromatin occupancy of the histone variant H2A.Z, playing critical roles in transcriptional regulation, genome replication, and DNA repair.

Protein Lactylation in Cancer: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Targets

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2026.
This schematic illustrates the central role of lactylation, a lactate‐derived posttranslational modification, in linking metabolic reprogramming to cancer progression and therapy resistance. At its core, lactylation modulates proteins, influenced by metabolic shifts and environmental factors.

Non‐Histone Lactylation: A New Frontier in Cerebral Ischemia‐Reperfusion Injury

open access: yesMed Research, Volume 2, Issue 1, Page 4-21, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Reperfusion therapy is the mainstay of treatment for ischemic stroke (IS) but frequently exacerbates secondary injury. Following cerebral ischemia and hypoxia, lactate accumulates markedly. Traditionally regarded as a metabolic byproduct, lactate has gained new significance with the discovery of protein lactylation. In addition to experimental

Current landscape of BRD4 inhibitors: Selective targeting and protein degradation for enhanced efficacy

open access: yesResults in Chemistry
The bromodomain and extra-terminal domain (BET) family of proteins has been implicated as a crucial factor in the pathogenesis of numerous diseases by regulating gene expression and chromatin dynamics through its bromodomains, which bind to acetylated ...

Aging‐Derived Alterations in Genomic, Immune, and Metabolic Networks: Implications for Cancer Development and Therapy

open access: yesMedComm – Oncology, Volume 5, Issue 1, March 2026.
Ageing acts as a double‐edged sword in cancer. In the elderly, open chromatin, immunosenescence, and chronic inflammation drive SASP (IL‐6, MMPs), MDSC accumulation and T‐cell suppression, fostering tumor‐promoting microenvironments and limited therapeutic benefit.

Molecular Glue Degraders Redefining Targeted Therapies From Discovery to Therapeutic Applications

open access: yesMedComm – Oncology, Volume 5, Issue 1, March 2026.
Molecular glue degraders (MGDs) constitute an emerging class of therapeutic agents poised to revolutionize the paradigm of targeted drug discovery. By reprogramming E3 ubiquitin ligases to degrade proteins of interest (POI) via a transient formation of a ternary complex mediated by protein–protein interactions, MGDs surpass the intrinsic limitations of

Breaking barriers: transitioning from X‐ray crystallography to cryo‐EM for structural studies

open access: yesActa Crystallographica Section D, Volume 82, Issue 3, Page 253-273, March 2026.
This article describes the transition of the Glass laboratory from X‐ray crystallography to single‐particle cryo‐electron microscopy (cryo‐EM) for structural studies of ATAD2B, a large AAA+ ATPase‐ and bromodomain‐containing protein involved in chromatin regulation.
