Irreversible ECM proteolysis by remodeling enzymes shapes development, homeostasis, and disease. ECM‐degrading proteases display cell specificity and are governed by shared mechanisms, exhibiting functional redundancy in generating matrikines, growth factors, and cytokines.

An Epicoccum fungus was isolated from gut of larvae of the butterfly Dione juno juno that feeds intensively on leaves of Passifloras. This fungus produces hydroxyanthraquinones that moderately inhibits growth of some Bacillus that coexist with the fungus in the insect gut, suggesting that it is probably important for microbial embalance in gut flora ...

Vacuolization as a Novel Approach to Cancer Therapy
This review discusses the novel strategy of inducing vacuole formation in cancer cells using small molecules, that induce nonapoptotic cell death mechanisms, such as paraptosis, oncosis, autophagy, and methuosis, and its potential in overcoming resistance to apoptosis‐based cancer therapies.

Abstract The conceptualization of mitochondria, previously restricted to their function as cellular ‘powerhouses’, has evolved to recognize their function as central coordinating hubs for the orchestration of cancer cell metabolism, signaling, and fate determination.

Concise and Stereospecific Total Synthesis of Arenastatin A and Its Segment B Analogs
A novel and concise synthetic method for arenastatin A, a cytotoxic cyclic depsipeptide of marine origin, was developed in this study. The convergent assembly of the four segments, including the cross-metathesis reaction, gave a cyclization precursor ...

Neuroendocrine tumours through an epigenetic lens: Emerging insights for diagnosis and treatment
Abstract Neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) are well‐differentiated epithelial neuroendocrine neoplasms that frequently develop in the small intestine, pancreas, and lungs. NETs originate from neuroendocrine cells specialized in hormone secretion implicated in a number of physiological processes.

Elucidation of novel turnagainolides and their biosynthetic gene cluster in Bacillus subtilis
Turnagainolides represent a unique class of cyclic depsipeptides characterized by the presence of a rare (E)-3-hydroxy-5-phenylpent-4-enoic acid (Hppa) residue, exhibiting diverse bioactivities.

Transcription inhibition by the depsipeptide antibiotic salinamide A
We report that bacterial RNA polymerase (RNAP) is the functional cellular target of the depsipeptide antibiotic salinamide A (Sal), and we report that Sal inhibits RNAP through a novel binding site and mechanism.

Advanced Methods for Detection of Bacillus cereus and Its Pathogenic Factors
Bacillus cereus is an opportunistic foodborne pathogen causing food intoxication and infectious diseases. Different toxins and pathogenic factors are responsible for diarrheal syndrome, like nonhemolytic enterotoxin Nhe, hemolytic enterotoxin Hbl ...
