Endothelium‐ and epithelium‐derived novel endogenous catecholamines as modulators of the autonomic nervous system

British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 15, Page 4091-4110, August 2026.
Abstract Catecholamines are classically viewed as neuronal transmitters and adrenal hormones; however, accumulating evidence demonstrates that sources other than nerve fibres and adrenal medulla play a fundamental role in local organ regulation. Physiological paradoxes, such as preserved organ function after denervation or transplantation, challenge a ...

Catalytic Antioxidant Activity of Acyclic and Macrocyclic Selenides: Insights Into Structure–Activity Relationships and Mechanisms From Kinetic and Computational Studies

European Journal of Organic Chemistry, Volume 29, Issue 27, 17 July 2026.
Structure–activity relationships of antioxidant activities of selenides were established by experimental and computational methods. Several structures displayed strong catalytic activity in an NMR‐based assay. Diverse selenides were shown to act as potent catalytic antioxidants.

RNA Modifications in Tumor Microenvironment: A New Dimension for Cancer Treatment

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 7, July 2026.
Tumor initiation and progression depend on a supportive and highly heterogeneous tumor microenvironment (TME). RNA modifications regulate signaling pathways and cytokine networks that shape TME dynamics, facilitating interactions between cancer cells and noncancerous stromal cells, and ultimately promoting immune evasion and tumor progression ...

Asynchrony Related to Mechanical Ventilation Exacerbates Diaphragm Dysfunction in a Mouse Model of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy

Muscle &Nerve, Volume 74, Issue 1, Page 255-264, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims In dystrophic mice (mdx, a genetic homolog of Duchenne muscular dystrophy: DMD), previous studies showed that mechanical ventilation (MV) induces ventilator‐induced diaphragmatic dysfunction (VIDD). However, susceptibility to mechanical stress caused by asynchrony remains unknown.

Cuproptosis Inducers in Cancer Therapy: State of the Art and Challenges

The Chemical Record, Volume 26, Issue 7, July 2026.
Cuproptosis is emerging as a distinct copper‐dependent cell death pathway, highlighting copper as a potential metabolic vulnerability in cancer. This review examines how coordination chemistry, redox regulation, and nanomaterial design shape Cu reactivity and therapeutic outcomes.

The Protective Effect of Ebselen on Radiocontrast-Induced Nephrotoxicity [PDF]

Renal Failure, 2012
Radiocontrast-induced nephropathy has become one of the most important causes of renal acute failure. The most effective management of reducing the incidence of contrast nephropathy is to understand and prevent its causes. We aimed to investigate the protective role of ebselen against radiocontrast-induced nephrotoxicity in terms of tissue oxidant ...

Host–Pathogen Dual Targeting With Repurposed Drugs Identifies a Synergistic Therapy for Intracellular Staphylococcus aureus

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, June 2026.
A large intracellular drug‐repurposing screen identifies a potent synergy between 5‐fluoro‐2′‐deoxycytidine and rifapentine, acting through dual host–pathogen targeting to reduce Staphylococcus aureus burdens across strains, cell types, and infection models (created with BioRender).

The cysteine-reactive small molecule ebselen facilitates effective SOD1 maturation

Nature Communications, 2018
Mutations in superoxide dismutase-1 (SOD1) cause amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Here the authors present the SOD1 crystal structure bound to the small cysteine-reactive molecule ebselen and show that ebselen is a chaperone for SOD1.

Use of ebselen as a neuroprotective agent in rat spinal cord subjected to traumatic injury

Neural Regeneration Research, 2019
Spinal cord injury (SCI) causes disturbances of motor skills. Free radicals have been shown to be essential for the development of spinal cord trauma. Despite some progress, until now no effective pharmacological therapies against SCI have been verified.
