Hyperactive ice‐binding proteins stabilize cell membranes and improve resistance to dehydration stress in Caenorhabditis elegans

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
TisIBP8, a fungal‐derived hyperactive ice‐binding protein, helps Caenorhabditis elegans survive dehydration. It localizes near cell membranes, reduces cell damage, and helps maintain membrane structure during drying. These results suggest that ice‐binding proteins can protect cells from dehydration stress as well as freezing stress.

Ionomycin suppresses cancer cell growth by disrupting mitochondrial transcription

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In this study, we identify a new function for the selective Ca2+ ionophore, ionomycin, as an inhibitor of mitochondrial transcription. Both total and nascent RNA analyses revealed that ionomycin treatment reduces the transcription of mitochondrial genes.

Exploring the influence of lactoferrin on wound healing and related signaling pathways: a systematic review

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Lactoferrin promotes wound healing by activating MAPK, PI3K/Akt, and extracellular matrix pathways, enhancing fibroblast remodeling, proliferation, and re‐epithelialization. These mechanisms highlight its therapeutic potential in inflammation control, tissue repair, and remodeling.

Inhibition of acid sphingomyelinase links sphingolipid remodeling to necroptotic cell death [PDF]

RSC Chemical Biology
Necroptosis is a lytic form of programmed cell death that requires activation of the RIPK1/3–MLKL complex and results in plasma membrane permeabilization.

The Influence of Moderate Electroporation on E. coli Membrane Permeability

Microorganisms
This study examined the membrane permeability of E. coli, which were exposed to a moderate pulsed electric field (PEF) (3.3 kV/cm). The membrane permeability of E. coli was examined as a function of time after exposure to PEF.
