The Pathogenic Roles of Local Vitamin D Metabolism Defect in Valve Inflammation and Calcification
This study identifies the valvular interstitial cell populations responsible for valvular calcification induced by hyperphosphatemia and likely aging, uncovers local vitamin D metabolism defect‐induced inflammation as a critical pathogenic factor of calcific aortic valve disease, and highlights active vitamin D and ERK inhibitor as potential preventive

Within the hepatitis E virus (HEV) ORF1 polyprotein, the X domain interacts with viral RNA‐dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp), forming a functional “pocket‐like” cavity (PC) that is crucial for viral replication. Structure‐based screening, surface plasmon resonance (SPR) assays, and HEV model validation collectively identify saikosaponin D and ...

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

Arsenic in realgar induces CNS toxicity through direct and indirect effects: it activates ZBTB7A in astrocytes, which in turn inhibits glycolysis and impairs mice's learning, memory, and exploration; it also suppresses OTC in the liver to block the ornithine cycle, leading to blood ornithine accumulation that crosses into the frontal lobe and further ...

This study investigates the deacetylation of ACLY at K978 acts as a novel risk in colorectal cancer chemoresistance. The deacetylation of K978 induces ACLY relocation to the nucleus and promotes its binding to RBM15, a m6A methylation modification “writer”.
