H1N1 infection during pregnancy specifically targets the fetal liver and lungs, triggering immune responses, tissue fibrosis and ferroptosis in parenchymal cells, ultimately leading to adverse pregnancy outcomes, offering insights into managing maternal H1N1 infections and their impact on fetal health.

Cas9 beyond CRISPR – SUMOylation, effector‐like potential and pathogenic adaptation
This Viewpoint explores the possibility that Cas9, beyond its canonical role in CRISPR immunity, may act as a host‐modulating effector during infection by Cas9‐encoding bacteria. Such a nucleomodulin‐like function could be influenced by eukaryotic post‐translational modifications, particularly SUMOylation, with potential implications for host–pathogen ...

The Leishmania phosphatase PTP1, and possibly the genetically similar PTP2, interacts with the Leishmania transmembrane protein DUF21. When both ptp1 and ptp2 are knocked out of Leishmania (LdΔPTP1/2), the parasite can no longer survive without magnesium in vitro and has reduced viability in the host macrophage. Conversely, in duf21 knockout (LdΔDUF21),

Artificial lipidation of proteins and peptides: from mechanism to clinical applications
Artificial lipidation transforms protein and peptide therapeutics by attaching fatty acid chains through reversible or permanent chemical strategies. This biomimetic approach delivers four key therapeutic advantages: extended circulation times (enabling weekly instead of daily dosing), alternative administration routes including oral delivery, precise ...
