TRIM40 Drives Pathological Cardiac Hypertrophy and Heart Failure via Ubiquitination of PKN2

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 17, 23 March 2026.
This study identifies the E3 ligase TRIM40 as a key driver of pathological cardiac hypertrophy. TRIM40 binds PKN2 via its B‐box domain and, through its C29‐dependent catalytic activity, mediates K63‐linked ubiquitination of PKN2. This modification enhances PKN2 phosphorylation at Ser815, thereby driving hypertrophy.

Post‐Translational Modifications in Animal Circadian Clocks

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 16, 18 March 2026.
Circadian clocks coordinate physiology with daily environmental cycles through conserved transcriptional–translational feedback loops. This review summarizes how post‐translational modifications fine‐tune clock function, highlights the evolutionary convergence of circadian timekeeping in Drosophila and mammals, and emphasizes the central of these ...

Diverse Scaffolds Facilitate NLRP3 Clustering and Inflammasome Formation in Response to Perturbations in Cell Homeostasis

BioEssays, Volume 48, Issue 3, March 2026.
NLRP3, a cytosolic innate immune sensor, responds to diverse activators that perturb cellular homeostasis. These disturbances generate molecular scaffolds that, through binding partners such as nucleic acids, lipids, and proteins, recruit and concentrate NLRP3. Scaffold‐mediated NLRP3 clustering promotes NLRP3 inflammasome assembly.

CMA‐mediated USP9X degradation promotes SHH medulloblastoma progression by facilitating SUFU ubiquitination

Clinical and Translational Medicine, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
Deubiquitinase USP9X suppresses SHH Medulloblastoma progression by facilitating SUFU ubiquitination. SHH promotes USP9X degradation through the CMA pathway. Combined inhibition of CMA and SHH pathway had a synergically therapeutic effect on SHH Medulloblastoma.

The multifaceted roles of the ACSL family in cancer: Metabolic reprogramming, ferroptosis regulation and tumour immune microenvironment remodelling

Clinical and Translational Medicine, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
The acyl‐CoA synthetase long‐chain (ACSL) family consists of five members, which exhibit a synergistic effect in promoting tumour lipid metabolism for energy supply. Specifically, ACSL3 and ACSL4 have antagonistic effects on the mechanisms related to ferroptosis in tumour cells.

Marine n‐3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids Mitigate Obesity Traits Through PRDM16‐Driven Gene–Nutrient Interaction and Spatiotemporal Scale Browning Process

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 2, March 2026.
This large cohort study of 45,664 participants from the UK Biobank provides strong epidemiological evidence that fish oil use was associated with 12% and 7% lower risks of obesity and high body fat percentage, respectively. Mechanistically, marine n‐3 polyunsaturated fatty acids mitigate obesity traits through PRDM16‐driven gene–nutrient interactions ...

RNA Regulatory Networks: Key Hubs in the Panorama of Cancer and Emerging Therapeutic Targets

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2026.
RNA regulatory networks play a crucial role in the initiation and progression of cancer through various modes of RNA interactions. Notably, circulating RNAs have emerged as potential biomarkers, while targeted interventions in RNA regulatory networks facilitate precise therapeutic strategies. ABSTRACT Cancer is a global health challenge. The initiation

PSMD12 promotes hepatocellular carcinoma progression by stabilizing CDK1

Frontiers in Immunology
Proteasome 26S subunit non-ATPase 12 (PSMD12), a critical subunit of the proteasome system, is essential for maintaining protein homeostasis. However, its role in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains underexplored.
