Impact of organic pollutants on phenotype and gene expression in human breast cancer cells
ABSTRACT Human exposure to industrial chemical compounds is widespread and, although often beneficial, prolonged contact may contribute to disease development, including cancer. While many studies have shown organic pollutants (OP) are cytotoxic, few have explored how long‐term exposure alters cell phenotype.

The Impact of Genotoxicity in Coke Oven Workers: Systematic Review With Meta‐Analysis
ABSTRACT This systematic review (SR) with meta‐analysis investigates the genotoxicity potential of coke oven workers (COWs) exposed to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) through a comprehensive analysis of studies retrieved from PubMed, SCOPUS, and Web of Science.

Salt‐induced nutritional and metabolic shifts in halophytes: implications for food security
Abstract Plant species vary in their response to salinity: some crops show a degree of salt tolerance, while halophytes – whether wild or cultivated – are characterized by a high capacity to thrive under saline conditions. Halophytes are considered a source of valuable secondary metabolites with potential economic value, yet they might also produce ...

Objectives Intra‐amniotic sludge is an independent risk factor for preterm birth. It consists of a biophysical sonographic finding in the amniotic fluid, formed by dense echogenic particles near the cervical internal orifice, due to sterile or infectious inflammatory processes.

Abstract Objectives Acute cerebral ischemia is characterized by several pathological processes evolving during time, which contribute to the final tissue damage. Secondary processes, such as prolonged inflammatory response, impaired mitochondrial function and oxidative stress, are responsible for the progression of brain injury to the peri‐infarct area,

Oncogenic KRAS Rewires Stress Granule Dynamics: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Opportunities
ABSTRACT Stress granules (SGs) are dynamic, membrane‐less structures that form in response to various cellular stresses, including metabolic, oxidative, and therapeutic challenges. They function as adaptive hubs and reorganize protein synthesis and signaling networks to help cells survive under stress. In cancer, these condensates are often hijacked to

Calcium signaling in plant defense
Calcium signaling acts as a central hub in plant immunity, translating pathogen perception into defense responses. This review highlights the channels, sensors, and signaling networks involved, and discusses how pathogens subvert calcium dynamics, as well as how this knowledge may inspire innovative strategies for engineering durable crop resistance ...

Polymorphisms of HSP70 genes are involved in the pathogenesis of idiopathic inflammatory myopathy
Introduction Idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM) are a group of rare systemic autoimmune diseases characterized by muscle weakness, histopathological signs of inflammation in muscle tissues, elevated serum levels of muscle-associated enzymes ...

Targeting a nucleotide‐sensitive groove on Hsp70 that binds the Bim BH3 helix, we integrate structures, biophysics, and SAR from peptides, fragments, and phenalene‐dicarbonitrile “wedges.” These disrupt the Hsp70–Bim complex with sub‐µM cellular engagement and in vivo activity while sparing Hsp90/mortalin.
