ALDOA Promotes Glycolysis and NLRP3/GSDMD Pyroptosis to Accelerate ALS Progression
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is characterized by progressive motor neuron degeneration. Glycolytic dysregulation is implicated in disease progression, yet the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. This study investigates how Aldolase A (ALDOA) drives ALS progression through glycolysis‐mediated motor neuron pyroptosis.

Th17 cells favor migration and invasiveness of cervical cancer cells under hypoxia in an IGF2BP2-dependent manner. [PDF]
Int J CancerWhat's new? Hypoxic regions and inflammatory Th17 cells in the tumor environment are both associated with poor prognosis in cervical cancer. However, synergistic mechanisms between hypoxia and Th17 cells remain elusive. This study demonstrated Th17–hypoxia‐driven mechanisms underlying cervical cancer progression.

The human milk protein-lipid complex HAMLET disrupts glycolysis and induces death in Streptococcus pneumoniae [PDF]
, 2019 HAMLET is a complex of human a-lactalbumin (ALA) and oleic acid and kills several Gram-positive bacteria by a mechanism that bears resemblance to apoptosis in eukaryotic cells. To identify HAMLET's bacterial targets, here we used Streptococcus pneumoniae

Targeting Lactate and Lactylation in Cancer Metabolism and Immunotherapy
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Lactate, once deemed a metabolic waste, emerges as a central regulator of cancer progression. This review elucidates how lactate and its epigenetic derivative, protein lactylation, orchestrate tumor metabolism, immune suppression, and therapeutic resistance.

Research progress on the mechanism of glycolysis in ovarian cancer
Frontiers in Immunology, 2023 Glycolysis is the preferred energy metabolism pathway in cancer cells even when the oxygen content is sufficient. Through glycolysis, cancer cells convert glucose into pyruvic acid and then lactate to rapidly produce energy and promote cancer progression.

A BioLiving Periosteum Evokes Centripetal Regeneration in Challenging Bone Defects
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Large bone defects often suffer from insufficient central healing. This study engineers a BioLiving periosteum that mimics the native structure. It sequentially delivers remote chemical cues and contact physical cues in a signaling‐relay manner, effectively recruiting and guiding endogenous cells toward the defect center.

Sex‐Specific Regulation of Glycemic Homeostasis by Theabrownin from Pu‐erh Tea
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Pu‐erh tea's key component, theabrownin (TB), lowers blood glucose in a sex‐specific manner. In females, estrogen boosts intestinal MUC2 production, which dramatically enhances TB's ability to inhibit the carbohydrate‐digesting enzyme α‐glucosidase.

IL-10 production in macrophages is regulated by a TLR-driven CREB-mediated mechanism that is linked to genes involved in cell metabolism [PDF]
, 2015 IL-10 is produced by macrophages in diverse immune settings and is critical in limiting immune-mediated pathology. In helminth infections, macrophages are an important source of IL-10; however, the molecular mechanism underpinning production of IL-10 by ...
