Schisandrin B targets CDK4/6 to suppress proliferation and enhance radiosensitivity in nasopharyngeal carcinoma by inducing cell cycle arrest

Scientific Reports
Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is notably prevalent in East and Southeast Asia, where despite advancements in radiotherapy leading to high control rates, challenges like radioresistance and collateral tissue damage remain significant. While Schisandrin B

Accurate and noninvasive prostate cancer detection using plasma‐derived extracellular vesicle RNA

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Plasma extracellular vesicles were captured with WGA‐conjugated magnetic beads and profiled for RNA biomarkers. A three‐RNA panel (NM_024955, NR_047469, and NR_002564) distinguished prostate cancer from healthy controls and benign prostatic hyperplasia, supporting a simple, noninvasive approach to improve prostate cancer detection.

Evolution‐guided yeast complementation reveals functional differences in human PSPH variants

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Ancient genomes can help guide which human genetic variants are tested experimentally. This study applies that idea to PSPH, a gene involved in serine biosynthesis, and uses high‐throughput yeast complementation to compare variant function. The findings reveal measurable differences among selected alleles and illustrate the value of evolution‐guided ...

Identification and characterisation of calcitonin receptor isoforms expressed in glioblastoma derived glioma stem and U‐87 MG cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Glioblastoma cells express calcitonin receptor variants (CT receptor isoforms) that may help them survive stress. Using qPCR, transcript‐specific long‐read nanopore sequencing, immunofluorescence co‐localisation and comparative sequence analysis, this study identifies a novel alternatively spliced CALCR transcript that encodes the CTb receptor isoform ...

Models for calcific aortic valve disease in vivo and in vitro

Cell Regeneration
Calcific Aortic Valve Disease (CAVD) is prevalent among the elderly as the most common valvular heart disease. Currently, no pharmaceutical interventions can effectively reverse or prevent CAVD, making valve replacement the primary therapeutic recourse ...

Re‐Purposing Sapropterin (Kuvan) for ACTA2‐Related Multisystemic Smooth Muscle Dysfunction Syndrome: A Translational Mechanistic and First‐In‐Human Therapeutic Report

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Multisystemic smooth muscle dysfunction syndrome (MSMDS) is an ultra‐rare, ACTA2‐related disorder characterized by severe cerebrovascular disease, aortic aneurysms, and smooth muscle dysfunction. Using molecular dynamics simulations and in silico drug screening, we identified that sapropterin dihydrochloride (Kuvan) is a candidate capable of ...

Augmenting and Assaying Nav1.1 Protein Quantity for Dravet Syndrome Therapy

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Dravet Syndrome (DS) is a developmental and epileptic encephalopathy predominantly caused by heterozygous loss‐of‐function variants in SCN1A, which encodes Nav1.1. Conserved upstream open reading frames (uORFs) in SCN1A were validated to regulate translation in reporter assays, demonstrating the therapeutic viability of increasing Nav1.1 from ...
