Targeting Tumor Stroma: Current Challenges and Future Directions
Figure 1. Mechanism of ECM reprogramming. Cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs), cancer‐associated macrophages (CAMs), and other mesenchymal cells alter the ECM composition and increase its stiffness by depositing matrix components such as collagen and hyaluronic acid, and secreting cross‐linking agents like lysyl oxidase homolog 2 (LOXL2).

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

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 ...

This review highlights mitochondrial dysfunction as a central driver of pancreatic β cell failure in diabetes, caused by disrupted mitochondrial quality control (MQC), oxidative stress, and impaired organelle communication. Emerging therapies, such as DRAK2 inhibitors and metabolic reprogramming agents, show promise in restoring β cell function by ...

We developed a LASSO‐based approach to uncover a three‐layered “fan‐in fan‐out” network architecture for complex traits like yeast aging, showing that peripheral genes influence lifespan indirectly through master regulators, which converge on core functional modules (e.g., stress response, autophagy).

Long‐Term Stress Adaptation as a Highly‐Conserved Key Factor in Yeast Aging
This study shows that long‐term, but not short‐term, stress exposure triggers molecular changes in yeast that mirror established hallmarks of aging, including altered proteostasis, epigenetic shifts, and reduced lifespan. These changes are reversible upon stress removal, and the genes involved are conserved across all domains of life. ABSTRACT Aging is

Histone Density and Dynamics Shape Mitotic Chromatid Architecture in Xenopus Egg Extracts
Histone chaperones and chromatin remodelers modulate histone density and dynamics. The resulting local chromatin properties are integrated with DNA reconfiguration activities mediated by condensins and topoisomerase IIα to shape the global architecture of mitotic chromosomes.
