Small Cell Lung Cancer Establishes a Metabolic Autocrine Mechanism Through Active Extracellular ATP Transport

open access: yesCancer Science, Volume 117, Issue 5, Page 1333-1345, May 2026.
Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) actively exports ATP through PANX1 channels, triggering P2RX7‐mediated autocrine signaling and promoting tumor proliferation. Inhibition of PANX1 or P2RX7 disrupts this loop and suppresses tumor growth. ABSTRACT Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is an aggressive malignancy with a 5‐year survival rate of less than 7%.

The Role of Piezo 1 in the Study of Intervertebral Disc Degeneration: Phenotype, Mechanism and Treatment

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 18, Issue 5, Page 897-914, May 2026.
As the key mechanotransducer in IVDD, Piezo1 orchestrates region‐specific degeneration across NP (senescence/ECM dysregulation), AF (apoptosis), and CEP (inflammation). This review integrates mechanistic pathways and assesses multimodal therapeutic targeting (pharmacologic/genetic/nutritional) to restore disc homeostasis.

Are physiological oscillations physiological?

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, Volume 604, Issue 9, Page 3672-3693, 1 May 2026.
Abstract figure legend Mechanisms and functions of physiological oscillations. Abstract Despite widespread and striking examples of physiological oscillations, their functional role is often unclear. Even glycolysis, the paradigm example of oscillatory biochemistry, has seen questions about its oscillatory function.

Lactate potentiates NMDA receptor currents via an intracellular redox mechanism targeting GluN2B subunits: implications for synaptic plasticity

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, Volume 604, Issue 10, Page 3934-3963, 15 May 2026.
Abstract figure legend Astrocyte‐derived lactate enhances neuronal NMDA receptor (NMDAR) function and synaptic plasticity through a redox‐ and CaMKII‐dependent mechanism. Lactate enters neurons via monocarboxylate transporters (MCTs) and is oxidized by lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) to pyruvate, generating NADH and increasing the intracellular NADH/NAD ...
