The L108I polymorphism in mouse prion protein drives spontaneous disease and enhances transmission of atypical and classical prion strains

Brain Pathology, EarlyView.
A single amino acid change (L108I) combined with PrP overexpression drives spontaneous atypical prion formation in mice, enabling also efficient propagation of diverse prion strains. This model allows studying how spontaneous prion diseases arise and provides powerful tools for investigating strain emergence, transmission barriers, and mechanisms ...

SOX30 Governs Synaptonemal Complex Assembly and Homologous Recombination in Male Meiosis

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
The transcription factor SOX30 directly binds promoter regions of SYCE1 and SYCE2 to mediate their transcriptional activation, thereby enabling proper assembly of central elements within the synaptonemal complex. Structural destabilisation of the synaptonemal complex in Sox30 KK spermatocytes triggers synaptic discontinuity, impairs homologous ...

Irradiated Liver Cancer Cell Vaccine Transfected With GM‐CSF Induces Specific and Long‐Lasting Anti‐tumour Immunity Through the Synergistic Effect of Oxidised mtDNA and GM‐CSF

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Song et al. developed an mGM‐CSF‐loaded, liver cancer cell‐based vaccine that potently activated dendritic cells and elicited tumour‐specific T cell responses. Mechanistically, radiation‐induced oxidative damage to mitochondrial DNA in cancer cells triggers the cGAS‐STING pathway in DCs, which synergizes with mGM‐CSF‐driven JAK2‐STAT3 signalling to ...

Mechanical stiffness orchestrates distinct regulation of MRTFs and YAP/TAZ transcriptional cofactors in hepatocytes

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
MRTFs and YAP/TAZ proteins, or mechanosensitive transcriptional cofactors (MRTcoF), regulate common genes associated with cellular contractility and immune cell infiltration. Their differential regulation in response to stiffness is linked to changes in hepatocyte's aspect ratio. MRTFB does not undergo nuclear translocation under these conditions. This

Optimization of Diffusion MRI With Consideration of the Signal Decay in Biological Tissues

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, Volume 96, Issue 1, Page 460-468, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose Devising methodology to characterize and optimize acquisition schemes for biological tissues, such as the prostate, that produce model‐based synthetic diffusion‐weighted images and derived model parameters with predictable SNR improvement. Methods The averaging effect (AE) in synthetic diffusion‐weighted images obtained through fitting

Chronic Low‐Dose Unsymmetrical Dimethylhydrazine Exposure in Rats: Multiorgan Mechanisms and Biomarker Identification

Journal of Applied Toxicology, Volume 46, Issue 6, Page 1987-2002, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Unsymmetrical dimethylhydrazine (UDMH), a highly toxic rocket propellant with known multiorgan effects, requires urgent characterization of its chronic low‐dose toxicity. Using an integrated approach including exploratory transcriptomics (n = 3/group) and metabolomic (n = 4/group) approaches in male Sprague–Dawley rats exposed to high‐dose ...

Dual‐Site Ru Single‐Atoms and RuP Nanoclusters on N, P, and B Co‐Doped Porous Carbon for Efficient Alkaline HER and AEM Water Electrolysis

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 36, 4 May 2026.
Ru single atoms and RuP nanoclusters are co‐anchored in N, P, and B co‐doped porous carbon nanospheres via in situ carbonization/phosphidation of a boronate polymer precursor. RuP activates water, while nearby Ru single atoms accelerate H2 formation through H* transfer. The catalyst delivers low overpotential and high durability in alkaline HER and AEM

m5C‐Modified tRF3b‐CysGCA‐23 Suppresses Bladder Cancer Malignancy by Repressing H3K18 Lactylation via Stabilizing RBM4

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 26, 8 May 2026.
In this study, we identified an NSUN6‐dependent m5C‐modified tsRNA, m5C‐tRF3b CysGCA‐23 (mtRC), that is downregulated in BC and inversely correlated with disease progression. Mechanistically, mtRC suppresses BC malignancy by stabilizing RBM4, attenuating glycolysis, and thereby limiting H3K18 lactylation–mediated activation of IL1RAP and VASH2 ...

Essential Role of Icosahedral Symmetry in the 3D Shape of AuAg Plasmonic Nanostars With High Aspect‐Ratio Legs

Small, Volume 22, Issue 27, 14 May 2026.
Electron nanodiffraction mapping was used to determine that the 3D leg configuration of branched plasmonic AuAg nanostars is associated with the icosahedral symmetry of the star core, providing a deeper understanding of their growth mechanism and thus paving the way to the development of optimized synthesis protocols targeting optical enhancement ...

Probabilistic Agro‐Hydrology: A Stochastic Framework for Irrigation Risk Assessment and Water Management

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Irrigation plays a critical role in stabilizing agricultural productivity under increasing climatic variability. However, the intensification of droughts and extreme weather events is revealing the vulnerability of irrigation systems, particularly due to mismatches between peak water needs and natural water availability.
