SARS‐CoV‐2 nucleocapsid protein variants have differential RNA chaperone activity
The SARS‐CoV‐2 nucleocapsid (N) protein facilitates RNA annealing through its RBD–IDR2–CTD region, identifying it as a functional RNA chaperone. The Omicron BA.5 variant shows reduced chaperone activity compared to the Wuhan wild‐type protein. Although phosphorylation has no effect on wild‐type N, phosphomimetic modification of BA.5 N restores its RNA ...

Degradomics for large‐scale mechanistic insights on proteases and proteolysis in human health
Proteolysis has an important role in human disease but remains relatively unexplored. Degradomics, the uncovering of proteolysis in tissues, cells, and proteins, uses mass spectrometry‐based terminomics to identify protein termini occurring therein (forward degradomics) and to define the actions of proteases (reverse degradomics).

Reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome: A narrative review
Abstract Objectives/Background This review summarizes current insights into Reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome (RCVS) diagnosis, management, and outcomes. RCVS is a cerebrovascular disorder characterized by recurrent thunderclap headaches and transient segmental vasoconstriction of cerebral arteries, typically resolving within 3 months ...

The role of peripheral serotonin in SARS‐CoV‐2 infectivity, COVID‐19 treatment and long COVID
In this article, we discuss how SARS‐CoV‐2 infects the gastrointestinal tract, that enterochromaffin cells, the source of circulating serotonin, uniquely express viral entry receptors. We examine how this infection disrupts gut‐derived serotonin, contributing to gastrointestinal symptoms and disease severity, and link elevated plasma serotonin to COVID‐
