NARFL Knockout Triggers Ferroptosis‐Driven Vascular Endothelial Dysfunction

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
NARFL is vital for CIA and oxidative stress resistance. NARFL deletion in HPMEC cells, zebrafish, and mice is lethal and rescued by a Ferroptosis inhibitor. NARFL deficiency disrupted its interaction with CIA proteins, decreased aconitase activity, increased IRP1 activity, induced Fe overload, and led to ferroptosis and oxidative stress, resulting in ...

Mettl3‐Mediated m6A Modification Represents a Novel Therapeutic Target for FSGS

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study explores the roles of Mettl3‐induced N6‐methyladenosine (m6A) modifications in Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS). The findings reveal that inhibition of Mettl3 results in podocyte injury by modulating the TJP1CDC42 pathway. Moreover, Administration of N6‐methyladenosine attenuates the FSGS phenotype in WT mice induced by Adriamycin ...

Specific Inhibition of SRC Kinase Impairs Malignant Glioma Growth In Vitro and In Vivo

Molecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids, 2012
Malignant glioma is a severe cancer with a poor prognosis. Local occurrence and rare metastases of malignant glioma make it a suitable target for gene therapy. Several studies have demonstrated the importance of Src kinase in different cancers.

Circular RNA PTPN4 Contributes to Blood‐Brain Barrier Disruption during Early Epileptogenesis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Epileptic condition induces CircPTPN4 upregulation, which promotes ECE‐1 expression through competitive sequestration of miR‐145a‐5p. The elevated ECE‐1 catalyzes the ET‐1 production, leading to p38/MAPK pathway activation and subsequent downregulation of tight junction protein expression. This cascade results in increased BBB permeability and enhanced

Sabotaged Integral HSC Heterogeneity Underlies Essential Thrombocythemia Development

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Single‐cell RNA sequencing (scRNA‐seq) maps how distinct driver mutations remodel hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) programs across essential thrombocythemia (ET). Comparative analysis uncovers both shared and subtype‐specific molecular signatures, identifies a triple‐negative (TN)‐associated HSC population enriched with malignant traits, and reveals the ...

Perfluorooctanoic Acid Exposure Causes Macrophage Ammonia Retention and Induces Spontaneous Miscarriages

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
PFOA exposure induces pregnancy loss by promoting glutaminolysis, which further causes ammonia accumulation in macrophages. Cellular ammonia retention results in damage to mitochondria and lysosomes, which leads to cell death eventually. Impaired lysosomes also decrease the secretion of the Cathepsin B (CTSB), and attenuate macrophage infiltration and ...
