Mitophagy and Ubiquitination Coordinate Context‐Specific Mitochondrial Quality Control and EMT/MET Plasticity to Drive Cancer Cell Invasion

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 16, 18 March 2026.
Metastatic invasion emerges when tumor‐intrinsic programs and microenvironmental forces converge on mitochondrial quality control. A context‐stratified framework links mtROS, mtDNA integrity, mechanics and nutrient/oxygen cues to fission–fusion remodeling, mtUPR and mitophagy.

Data from CCCTC-Binding Factor Confines the Distal Action of Estrogen Receptor

, 2023
<div>Abstract<p>Distal enhancers have recently emerged as a common mode of gene regulation for several transcription factors, including estrogen and androgen receptors, the two key regulators of breast and prostate cancer major subtypes. Despite the rapid success in genome-wide annotation of estrogen receptor-α (ERα) binding sites in cell ...

A Murine Database of Structural Variants Identifies A Candidate Gene for a Spontaneous Murine Lymphoma Model

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 17, 23 March 2026.
We analyzed long‐read genomic sequencing data obtained from 40 inbred mouse strains to produce a large database of structural variants. This dataset captures the major types of structural variants, which includes deletions, insertions, duplications, and inversions.

The role of vitamin D receptor signaling in hair follicle health and alopecia: Current understanding and therapeutic implications

Journal of Cell Communication and Signaling, Volume 20, Issue 1, March 2026.
The vitamin D receptor (VDR) regulates hair follicle biology through ligand‐dependent and ligand‐independent mechanisms by heterodimerizing with retinoid X receptor, recruiting coactivator complexes, and activating target genes including Wnt inhibitors, hair keratins, and cell cycle regulators.

Type 2 Diabetes From the Perspective of Telomere Biology

Endocrinology, Diabetes &Metabolism, Volume 9, Issue 2, March 2026.
This graphical abstract illustrates the bidirectional relationship between the telomere/telomerase system and T2DM: telomere attrition contributes to pancreatic β‐cell dysfunction and insulin resistance through mechanisms such as oxidative stress and apoptosis, while T2DM‐related hyperglycemia and chronic inflammation further exacerbate telomere damage.

Classifying human promoters by occupancy patterns identifies recurring sequence elements, combinatorial binding, and spatial interactions

BMC Biology, 2018
Background Characterizing recurring sequence patterns in human promoters has been a challenging undertaking even nowadays where a near-complete overview of promoters exists.

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

MedComm, 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.

Disruption of the l‐DOPA Receptor Gpr143/OA1‐Gene in Mice Creates a Unique Mixed Psychosis‐Like Phenotype

Neuropsychopharmacology Reports, Volume 46, Issue 1, March 2026.
We analyzed the behavior of GPR143 gene‐deficient mice. GPR143‐KO mice displayed a mixed psychiatric phenotype. GPR143 may play a role in mesolimbic and mesocortical functions underlying sensory gating, reward, social hierarchy, cognition, and emotional regulation. ABSTRACT GPR143, originally identified as the gene product of ocular albinism 1 (OA1), a

Positional distribution of transcription factor binding sites in the human genome.

PLoS ONE
As transcription factors (TFs) play a major role in gene regulation, we studied their binding motifs (positional weight matrices, PWMs) and binding sites (TFBSs) in the human genome, and how TFs bind DNA motifs, including the involvement of binding co ...
