hESCs‐derived Organoids Achieve Liver Zonation Features through LSEC Modulation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This article addresses the absence of zonation features in current organoid models by co‐culturing human embryonic stem cell‐derived hepatocytes with liver sinusoidal endothelial cells exhibiting distinct zonal characteristics. It demonstrates that differential WNT2 signaling from endothelial cells modulates hepatocyte zonation and metabolic functions,

A Novel Protein NAB1‐356 Encoded by circRNA circNAB1 Mitigates Atrial Fibrillation by Reducing Inflammation and Fibrosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The circRNA circNAB1 is downregulated in AF patient. Silencing circNAB1 promotes collagen deposition and inflammation, whereas overexpression reduces AF susceptibility. circNAB1 encodes the protein NAB1 356 that interacts with EGR1 to mitigate fibrosis and inflammation.

The Super Enhancer‐Driven Long Noncoding RNA PRKCQ‐AS1 Promotes Neuroblastoma Tumorigenesis by Interacting With MSI2 Protein and Is Targetable by Small Molecule Compounds

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
PRKCQ‐AS1 is overexpressed due to transcriptional super‐enhancers. PRKCQ‐AS1 RNA forms a complex with MSI2 protein to induce BMX mRNA stabilization and overexpression, ERK protein phosphorylation and neuroblastoma cell proliferation. Compound NSC617570 blocks PRKCQ‐AS1 binding to MSI2, leading to BMX mRNA disassociation from MSI2 protein, BMX reduction,

SIRT4 Promotes Pancreatic Cancer Stemness by Enhancing Histone Lactylation and Epigenetic Reprogramming Stimulated by Calcium Signaling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
As a downstream target of α2δ1‐mediated calcium signaling, SIRT4 serves as an oncogene to promote the stemness of pancreatic cancer via deacetylating ENO1 directly at K358, leading to attenuated ENO1's RNA‐binding capacity, enhanced glycolytic substrate 2‐PG binding and robust glycolytic activity to increase the level of lactate that induce histone ...

Integrating Dense Genotyping with High‐Throughput Phenotyping Empowers the Genetic Dissection of Berry Quality and Resilience Traits in Grapevine

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Researchers develop advanced tools to study grapevine traits like berry quality and stress resilience. A 200K SNP array and high‐throughput phenotyping enable the identification of loci linked to berry shape, sugar content, acidity, and cold tolerance. Functional validation of genes such as NAC08 reveals roles in cold tolerance.

Dissecting the Spatial and Single‐Cell Transcriptomic Architecture of Cancer Stem Cell Niche Driving Tumor Progression in Gastric Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A single‐cell and spatial transcriptional atlas reveals the architecture of human gastric cancer stem cell (CSC) niche and the developmental trajectory of CSCs. These CSCs interact with immunosuppressive immune cells thereby constructing immune‐suppressive niche, and inflammatory cancer‐associated fibroblast (iCAFs) to enhance stemness through ...

Citrullination of NF‐κB p65 by PAD2 as a Novel Therapeutic Target for Modulating Macrophage Polarization in Acute Lung Injury

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Peptidyl arginine deiminase 2 (PAD2) plays a key role in regulating macrophage function in Pseudomonas aeruginosa‐induced acute lung injury (ALI). Using single‐cell RNA sequencing and proteomics, a new PAD2‐catalyzed citrullination site on NF‐κB p65 (171 Arginine), modulating macrophage polarization is identified.

PPY‐Induced iCAFs Cultivate an Immunosuppressive Microenvironment in Pancreatic Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma features abundant stromal components that hinder therapy efficacy. Single‐cell RNA sequencing analysis combined with experiments identified PPY, a gastrointestinal hormone, as a novel inducer of immunosuppressive iCAFs. Mechanistic studies revealed that PPY activates the non‐canonical NF‐κB pathway via EGFR.

LincNEAT1 Encoded‐NEAT1‐31 Promotes Phagocytosis by Directly Activating the Aurora‐A–PI3K–AKT Pathway

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
LincNEAT1 Encoded‐NEAT1‐31 micropeptide directly binds with Aurora‐A and enhanced AKT pathways to pormotes phagocytosis against multi cancer cells. Abstract Macrophages play vital roles in innate and adaptive immunity, and their essential functions are mediated by phagocytosis and antigen presentation.
