Engineering Approaches to Modify Immunomodulatory Functions of Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (MSCs): Tissue Regeneration and Clinical Application

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) show promise for treating immune‐related disorders through immunomodulation and tissue regeneration. This review gives a brief overview of current clinical approval of MSC therapies. It also discussed how bioengineering, including genetic modification, biomaterial delivery, extracellular vesicles, and iPSC‐derived MSCs,

Loss of E3 Ubiquitin Ligase RINES via CpG Methylation Relieves Suppression of STAT3 and MYC, Facilitating Multiple Tumorigeneses

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Dysregulated protein modifications drive tumorigenesis. RINES, an E3 ubiquitin ligase, represses tumor cell proliferation and metastasis by facilitating RING domain‐dependent, ubiquitin–proteasome‐mediated degradation of STAT3 and MYC, which consequently restrains cancer stemness and oncogenic progression.

Single‐Cell Dissection of Microglial Dysfunction in Diabetes‐Associated Neurodegenerative Vulnerability

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Using single‐cell transcriptomic and epigenomic profiling, researchers mapped microglial dysfunction across the lifespan of db/db mice. The authors uncovered a nonlinear microglial remodeling featuring early inflammatory priming, a mid‐stage transcriptional inflection, and late dysfunction.

Lentiviral vectors can be used for full-length dystrophin gene therapy

Scientific Reports, 2017
Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) is caused by a lack of dystrophin expression in patient muscle fibres. Current DMD gene therapy strategies rely on the expression of internally deleted forms of dystrophin, missing important functional domains.

Rescue of lentiviral vector transduction by artificial LEDGF-hybrids.

, 2016
LEDGF-fusions were evaluated for their ability to support lentiviral vector transduction. LEDGF-depleted HelaP4-based cell lines stably complemented with LEDGF-hybrids were challenged with a VSV-G pseudo-typed lentiviral reporter vector encoding enhanced

Transcription Factor HOXC11 Drives Colorectal Cancer Progression and Metastasis via CAMK2A‐Dependent CXCL5 Upregulation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
HOXC11 drives colorectal cancer progression by transcriptionally activating CAMK2A, which triggers NF‐κB–dependent CXCL5 upregulation. CXCL5–CXCR2 signaling further reinforces HOXC11 expression through the ERK1/2–SP1 axis, forming a prometastatic positive feedback loop that is effectively disrupted by combined CAMK2A and CXCR2 inhibition.

USP30‐Mediated Deubiquitination of PEX5 Suppresses Pexophagy to Drive Tubular Injury in Diabetic Kidney Disease

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
USP30 accumulation in diabetic renal tubular epithelial cells deubiquitinates PEX5, suppresses pexophagy, and drives dysfunctional peroxisome accumulation and tubular injury. USP30 depletion restores PEX5 ubiquitination and pexophagy, improves peroxisomal function, and alleviates tubular damage, highlighting USP30 as a therapeutic target in diabetic ...

IFI27 and BAX are Essential for GSDME‐Mediated Myeloma Cell Pyroptosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The proposed model of GSDME‐mediated MM cell pyroptosis modulated by IFI27 and BAX. IFI27 is downregulated in MM cells. Upon pyroptotic stimulation, such as DOX or ETO treatment, IFI27 is induced, therefore liberating BAX from BCL‐2 ❶. BAX is then recruited to mitochondria and forms homo‐oligomeric channels in OMM, therefore leading to cytochrome C ...
