Expression characteristics of dual‐specificity phosphatase 2 and hypoxia‐inducible factor‐1α in acute kidney injury and preliminary study of the effect of dual‐specificity phosphatase 2 on HK‐2 cells

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a global health problem with significant long‐term harm if the prognosis is poor. Dual‐specificity phosphatase 2 (DUSP2) is involved in key regulatory pathways in several disease processes, but its function in renal pathophysiology is unclear.

A multi‐omics investigation of sarcopenia and frailty: Integrating genomic, epigenomic and telomere length data

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Sarcopenia and frailty are complex geriatric syndromes influenced by a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Recent studies suggest that specific genetic variants, DNA methylation patterns and shortened telomeres are associated with age‐related diseases and might contribute to the development of both sarcopenia and frailty. In this

Canonical and non‐canonical functions of proteins regulating mitochondrial dynamics in mammalian physiology

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Mitochondria are highly dynamic organelles that continuously remodel their architecture through coordinated cycles of fusion and fission. This review examines the four key GTPases that orchestrate mitochondrial dynamics in mammals: MFN1, MFN2, OPA1, and DRP1.

14‐3‐3 proteins: Regulators of cardiac excitation–contraction coupling and stress responses

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend 14‐3‐3 protein interactions in cardiac regulation. Schematic representation of 14‐3‐3 binding partners in excitation–contraction coupling, transcriptional regulation/development and stress response pathways. Asterisks indicate targets where the exact 14‐3‐3 binding site is unknown.

Regulation of histone acetylation and turnover by histone chaperones

The FASEB Journal, 2009
Acetylation of histone H3 on lysine 56 occurs on newly synthesized histones in fungal species, and the absence of this modification is associated with extreme sensitivity to genotoxic agents. H3‐K56 acetylation is catalyzed when Rtt109, a distant homolog of p300/CBP acetyltransferases, is stimulated by either ...

The Dual Role of Autophagy in Cancer: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Strategies

MedComm – Oncology, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
Autophagy is a conserved cellular process degrading dysfunctional organelles and protein aggregates to maintain cell homeostasis, and it exhibits context‐dependent duality in cancer. Autophagy functions as a critical tumor‐suppressive mechanism by preventing DNA damage and mutation during tumor initiation.

Intersecting Molecular Pathways in Cardiovascular Disease and Diabetes Mellitus: Emerging Roles of Inflammation and Therapeutics

Diabetes/Metabolism Research and Reviews, Volume 42, Issue 4, May 2026.
Central illustration: Pathophysiological mechanisms linking diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular disease. Chronic hyperglycaemia, insulin resistance, and low‐grade inflammation contribute to endothelial dysfunction, myocardial fibrosis, and cardiomyocyte apoptosis.

An ALS‐associated mutation in the C‐terminal α‐helix of TDP‐43 uncouples condensate formation and amyloid assembly

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract TAR DNA‐binding protein 43 (TDP‐43) plays a critical role in RNA metabolism and is incorporated into biomolecular condensates called stress granules. In amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and several other neurodegenerative disorders, TDP‐43 undergoes aberrant phase transitions, forming insoluble amyloid aggregates, including fibrils composed

The double histone fold: Structure, functional implications across the tree of life and relevance to protein design

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract The histone fold is one of the most ancient and versatile structural motifs in protein biology, best known for its role in chromatin organization. A remarkable variation of this motif is the double histone fold (DHF), in which two histone folds are encoded within a single polypeptide chain and assemble intramolecularly into a histone‐like ...

Tipping the balance in histone supply puts genome stability at stake

The EMBO Journal
Specific localization of the histone H3 variant CENP-A at centromeres is key for faithful chromosome segregation during cell division, with CENP-A mislocalization being associated with chromosomal instability and cancer.
