Comparative analysis of canonical and noncanonical rhodopsins in Amphidinium carterae and Karlodinium veneficum

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Rhodopsins are ancient and versatile light‐sensitive proteins, widely distributed across microbial life. In dinoflagellates, however, their diversity and function remain poorly understood, owing to the lineage's extreme genomic divergence. Here, we surveyed the rhodopsin complements of two dinoflagellates, Amphidinium carterae and Karlodinium ...

Human‐derived cardiac‐neural microtissues reveal catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia is also a disease of the sympathetic neuron

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Schematic diagram illustrating the proposed pathway in which regulatory defects might occur in sympathetic neurons derived from hiPSC in catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT). Specifically, enhanced calcium transients appeared to derive from three sources: enhanced membrane excitability (due to loss of ...

An age‐associated decline in the role of the sarcoplasmic reticulum and associated calcium‐handling proteins sets the pace for sinoatrial node function

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Stable, responsive pacemaking in the sinoatrial node is driven by the activity of the funny current (membrane clock), interplay of calcium cycling and release from the sarcoendoplasmic reticulum with depolarising sodium‐calcium exchange current (calcium clock). With increasing age, key proteins associated with calcium cycling are

The Ubiquitin Ligase Zinc Finger SWIM Domain‐Containing Protein 8 Regulates Oligodendrocyte Development Through the Argonaute2/MicroRNA‐7 Axis

Glia, Volume 74, Issue 5, May 2026.
ZSWIM8, an E3 ubiquitin ligase that broadly targets IDR‐rich proteins, drives MiR‐7‐dependent AGO2 degradation and the turnover of many RBPs. Loss of ZSWIM8 leads to MiR‐7 accumulation in oligodendrocyte progenitor cells and myelination defects in the developing brain. ABSTRACT Proteostasis of proteins with intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) is of

Decoding Human Placental Cellular and Molecular Responses to Obesity and Fetal Growth

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 17, 23 March 2026.
Women with obesity often deliver large‐for‐gestational‐age (LGA) infants. Single‐nucleus RNA sequencing of term placenta reveals that hypoxia and TNF‐α signaling in syncytiotrophoblasts are featured in maternal obesity, but inflammatory signatures in Hofbauer cells and response to lipid or carbohydrate metabolism in fibroblasts are specific to LGA.

RPS3‐Enriched Extracellular Vesicles Mediate Liver‐Spinal Cord Inter‐Organ Communication

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 16, 18 March 2026.
Spinal cord injury activates the liver to send extracellular vesicles loaded with RPS3 protein to the lesion site. These vesicles are taken up by neural stem cells and astrocytes, triggering NF‐κB signaling, impairing the regeneration of neurons and myelin, and promotes harmful inflammation, ultimately hindering recovery.

Exploring the Role of Environmental Factors on Chromosomal Translocations Associated With Childhood Leukaemia

Cancer Medicine, Volume 15, Issue 3, March 2026.
Our study provides preliminary proof of principle that physiologically relevant levels of caffeine, benzene, cotinine and folic acid, risk factors of childhood leukaemia, may influence chromosomal translocation induction. Understanding the environmental contribution to leukaemia‐initiating chromosomal translocations will be essential to develop ...

Potential neuroprotective and therapeutic agents and their mechanisms for irradiation‐induced brain injury

Ibrain, Volume 12, Issue 1, Page 96-122, Spring 2026.
In this review, agents such baicalein, troxerutin, epigallocatechin gallate, quercetin, melatonin, valproic acid, lithium, neurosteroid progesterone, as well as minocycline have been implicated as neuroprotective agents for irradiation‐induced neurological deficits. Also, agents such as glucocorticoids, methylphenidate, vitamin E, bisdemethoxycurcumin,

Distinct Thromboxane A₂–Dependent Pathways Regulate Arachidonic Acid–Triggered VASP Phosphorylation at Ser239 and Ser157 in Human Platelets: Real‐Time Visualization Reveals Superior Antithrombotic Efficacy by Targeting Thromboxane A₂ Signaling over Cyclooxygenase Inhibition

Journal of Cellular Physiology, Volume 241, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Platelets, as anucleate blood cells, play a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), making antiplatelet therapy essential for preventing thrombotic events such as myocardial infarction. Thromboxane A₂ (TXA₂) is a key pro‐aggregatory mediator that drives platelet activation.
