Design of Lipopeptides and dsRNA‐Lipopeptide Complexes for Sprayable RNAi‐Based Plant Protection

Journal of Peptide Science, Volume 32, Issue 11, November 2026.
Lipopeptide surfactants self‐assemble into nanostructure carriers that complex, protect, and deliver dsRNA, establishing structure–function relationships for next‐generation RNAi‐based insect control. ABSTRACT Broad‐spectrum insecticides persist in the environment, affecting non‐target organisms and selecting for resistant pest populations. In contrast,

Targeting the DNA Damage Response in Cancer

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 10, October 2026.
Targeting the DNA damage response (DDR) reshapes both tumor vulnerability and antitumor immunity. DNA lesions and DDR inhibitors can promote cytosolic nucleic‐acid sensing, antigen presentation, and immune activation, but can also induce adaptive immune escape.

Identification of broadly expressed nervous system‐related genes as effective RNAi targets in the brown marmorated stink bug, Halyomorpha halys

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 10, Page 9870-9878, October 2026.
Broadly expressed genes outperformed brain‐enriched neural targets as RNAi candidates in Halyomorpha halys. Microinjection of dsRNA targeting alpha‐soluble NSF attachment protein (Asnap) or Ras opposite protein (Rop) caused strong feeding suppression and near‐complete mortality, identifying them as promising targets for future oral or spray‐based RNAi ...

Dose‐dependent efficacy of a novel dsRNA‐based solution containing vadescana for Varroa destructor control

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 10, Page 9974-9983, October 2026.
Vadescana is a novel dsRNA‐based product that targets Varroa fecundity. Vadescana applied at 4 g/brood box in one application was most effective at reducing Varroa populations for up to 18 weeks. Abstract BACKGROUND A novel dsRNA‐based product, containing a molecule called vadescana, interferes with Varroa destructor (Anderson and Trueman) fecundity ...

Malaria mosquito antimicrobial defence requires immunity and detoxification gene regulation by Lola

Insect Molecular Biology, Volume 35, Issue 5, Page 576-593, October 2026.
Malaria mosquito antimicrobial defence requires upregulation of lola. Attenuation of lola in the midgut of Anopheles albimanus mosquitoes inhibits the upregulation of immunity genes induced by challenge. Putative target genes of the Lola transcription factor were revealed by lola attenuation, including Cecropin‐C, Draper, PPAF2, Clip‐domain serine ...

Turnip mosaic virus utilizes the lipid droplet biogenesis machinery to facilitate its propagation in plants

New Phytologist, Volume 252, Issue 2, Page 797-816, October 2026.
Potyvirus turnip mosaic virus induces neutral lipid accumulation and lipid droplet biogenesis in infected leaves for its own benefit. See also the Commentary on this article by May & Nagy, 252: 525–527. Summary Lipid droplets (LDs), which are dedicated to storing neutral lipids (NLs), are dynamic organelles involved in numerous other functions ...

Transcriptomic and Metabolomic Profiling Identifies a Core Gene–Metabolite Axis Driving African Swine Fever Virus Replication in the Soft Tick Ornithodoros lahorensis

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 17, 15 September 2026.
Transcriptomic and metabolomic profiling of Ornithodoros lahorensis during African swine fever virus (ASFV) infection reveals that ASFV rewires host purine/pyrimidine metabolism, lipid metabolism, and energy metabolism. A core gene‐metabolite regulatory axis consisting of 12 key genes and 8 signature metabolites is identified to support viral genome ...

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics

FEBS Letters, Volume 600, Issue 17, Page 2526-2546, September 2026.
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.
