The Silent Link: Exploring the Impact of Periodontal Diseases on Head and Neck Carcinogenesis
ABSTRACT Objectives Oral dysbiosis can accelerate the progression of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) by fostering a pro‐inflammatory, immunosuppressive, and metabolically altered environment. This narrative review examines the relationships between periodontitis‐associated bacteria and HNSCC, focusing on their impact on oncogenic pathways,

Alterations of circulating innate lymphoid cells in recent‐onset type 1 diabetes
Circulating innate lymphoid cells (ILC) in patients with recent‐onset type 1 diabetes (T1D) show a chronic activation and a primed phenotype, with overexpression of HLA Class II (ILC1 and ILCP) and dysregulation of costimulatory and migratory mRNA transcripts. Glucose and cytokines (IL‐1β) mediate circulating ILC activation and HLA Class II expression.

Low‐dose hydrogen peroxide priming shapes Manila clam responses to simulated marine heatwaves, which showed faster burrowing behavior, limited transcriptional disruption, and reduced opportunistic microbiota. A long‐term field trial confirms no detectable adverse effects, supporting redox‐based chemical priming as a feasible resilience strategy in ...

Griffithsin, Brevinin‐2, and CCL20 were identified as potent MERS‐CoV fusion inhibitor candidates targeting the HR2 domain through integrated molecular docking, MD simulations, and MM/PBSA analyses. These peptides demonstrated superior binding stability and favorable safety profiles compared to the standard inhibitor, supporting their potential as ...

An edge β‐strand mutation turns ubiquitin into a pore‐forming amyloid
Abstract Ubiquitin (Ub) is a highly conserved eukaryotic protein, generally regarded as stable and soluble under physiological conditions, playing a key role in maintaining cellular protein balance. Using complementary bioinformatic, biophysical, immunochemical, and electrophysiological approaches, we show that a single point mutation—the substitution ...

Sketching microprotein portraits
Abstract The illustrations of intricate molecular machineries inside cells created by David Goodsell continue to inspire the scientific community. Here, we aim to extend his artworks to include microproteins, a newly recognized class of small proteins with less than 100 amino acids, encoded by small open reading frames.

T‐Cell Biology in the Female Reproductive Tract: Relevance to HIV Infection
ABSTRACT Worldwide, most HIV infections occur across a mucosal surface during sexual contact, with women accounting for nearly half of reported new HIV infections across the globe in 2024. Most new infections in women and girls are believed to involve transmission across mucosal surfaces of the lower reproductive tract, which includes the vagina and ...
