SIRT6‐Mediated Deacetylation of ATF3 Promotes Silica‐Induced Lung Fibrosis by Enhancing its Nuclear Import via Binding to Importin α

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 46, 17 August 2026.
SIRT6‐mediated ATF3 acetylation drives MGARP transcription and mitochondrial dysfunction in macrophages, promoting macrophage senescence and pulmonary fibrosis. Mechanistically, HSP70/Importin α competitively binds to ATF3, modulating its nuclear translocation.

Autophagy Modulation in Cancer Therapy: Navigating the Dual Roles to Overcome Chemoresistance

open access: yesHealth Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Autophagy is a fundamental cellular recycling mechanism with complex and often opposing roles in cancer, functioning as both a tumor suppressor and a pro‐survival mechanism in established tumors. This duality has attracted considerable attention, particularly regarding the therapeutic modulation of autophagy to overcome ...
