Testosterone and docetaxel treatment effect on mortality risk in nonmetastatic high‐risk prostate cancer: A predictive biomarker analysis

Cancer, Volume 132, Issue 11, 1 June 2026.
Abstract Background Prostate cancer (PC) arising in patients with low testosterone is often more aggressive and less responsive to androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). This study evaluated whether baseline testosterone group (low vs. normal) modifies the mortality benefit of adding docetaxel to radiation therapy (RT) and ADT in nonmetastatic high‐risk ...

Redox Disruption Induced by Saquayamycin B1 Promotes Cytotoxicity in Resistant Melanoma Cells

ChemMedChem, Volume 21, Issue 10, 27 May 2026.
Saquayamycin B1 (SQ‐B1), an antibiotic isolated from Streptomyces sp. I072, triggers cell death in different melanoma cell lines, including chemoresistant SK‐MEL‐5. SQ‐B1 elevates O2•‐ and NO• on both sides of the membrane and blocks glutathione transferase (GSTP‐1) and glutathione reductase (GSR), destabilizing the GSH/GSSG antioxidant system.

A dynamic epigenetic perspective on above‐ and belowground phenotypic responses to drought: Insights from global DNA methylation in Erodium cicutarium

Plant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 3, Page 722-731, April 2026.
Our factorial experimental design investigates the relationships between DNA methylation, plant development and individual fitness under stress in Erodium cicutarium. We found that epigenetic modifications associated to 5‐azacytidine seed treatment desynchronized plant growth and delayed flowering.
