Plasmepsins as Antimalarial Drug Targets—Then, Now, and the Future
ABSTRACT Malaria is a devastating disease caused by Plasmodium parasites. Plasmodium parasites express ten cathepsin D‐like aspartyl proteases, called plasmepsins (PMs). These PMs have diverse roles fulfill diverse functions throughout the parasite's lifecycle, though several exhibit functional redundancies. Among them, PMV, PMIV, and PMX are essential

Genetic analysis of primary lung interdigitating dendritic cell sarcomas
Abstract Interdigitating dendritic cell sarcomas (IDCSs) are rare tumors that commonly arise in the hematopoietic system and rarely outside. The genetic drivers of IDCS carcinogenesis are unknown; therefore, therapeutic options are limited. We investigated somatic gene mutations and copy‐number alterations (CNAs) in nine IDCSs arising in the lung by ...

Targeting fibrosis in the treatment of lower urinary tract dysfunction
Abstract Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a widely prevalent age‐associated disease that is the main contributor to lower urinary tract dysfunction (LUTD) in aging men. Although prostate fibrosis has been recognized as a contributor to BPH pathophysiology, there are not any clinically available therapeutics that target this aspect of disease ...

Breast cancer subtypes, estrogen receptor‐positive (ER+), HER2‐enriched, and TNBC, are defined by genomic and epigenetic signatures. Multi‐omics profiling, immunotherapy, liquid biopsy, and AI‐driven radiogenomics enable precision medicine. Tools like Oncotype DX and PAM50 support personalized care.

This study demonstrates that the novel 10B‐BPA‐based BNCT system, combined with an RFQ accelerator, effectively targets head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. It induces tumor regression safely and efficiently by triggering DNA damage and activating the ROS/HIF‐1α/NF‐κB pathway, leading to caspase‐3‐mediated apoptosis.

Harnessing Natural Compounds in Psoriasis: Targeting Cellular Pathways for Effective Therapy
Natural compounds act on key cellular pathways in psoriasis by suppressing keratinocyte hyperproliferation, modulating Th17/IL‐17‐mediated immune responses, and reducing oxidative stress. These multi‐target effects highlight their potential as safer adjunctive therapies alongside conventional treatments.
