Isoliquiritin targeting m5C RNA methylation improves mitophagy in doxorubicin-induced myocardial cardiotoxicity

Phytomedicine
Doxorubicin (DOX)-induced myocardial cardiotoxicity (DIC) severely limits its clinical application, and there is no optimal therapeutic agent available. Recent studies revealed that activation of BNIP3-mediated mitophagy and the inhibition of m5C RNA methylation played a crucial role in DIC. Isoliquiritin (ISL) has remarkable cardiac protective effect.

Epigenetic mechanisms and therapeutic innovations in chronic pain‐associated neuropsychiatric co‐morbidities

British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 7, Page 1313-1340, April 2026.
Abstract Chronic pain, marked by nociceptive sensitization and maladaptive neuroplasticity, affects 30% of the global population with escalating socioeconomic burdens. Epidemiological data show a 2‐3‐fold increase in neuropsychiatric co‐morbidities among individuals with chronic pain, where epigenetic dysregulation serves as a key mechanism linking ...

DNMT2‐m5C‐ACLY Axis Promotes Lenvatinib Resistance in Hepatocellular Carcinoma Through Histone Acetylation‐Mediated Notch Pathway

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 13, 3 March 2026.
Lenvatinib resistance poses a major challenge in advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This study reveals that DNMT2 upregulation is a key driver, which stabilizes ACLY mRNA via m5C modification and activates the Notch signaling pathway. Crucially, combining ACLY inhibitors with lenvatinib overcomes resistance and suppresses tumors, offering a ...

Mitophagy and Ubiquitination Coordinate Context‐Specific Mitochondrial Quality Control and EMT/MET Plasticity to Drive Cancer Cell Invasion

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 16, 18 March 2026.
Metastatic invasion emerges when tumor‐intrinsic programs and microenvironmental forces converge on mitochondrial quality control. A context‐stratified framework links mtROS, mtDNA integrity, mechanics and nutrient/oxygen cues to fission–fusion remodeling, mtUPR and mitophagy.

RNA‐Based Therapies for Inherited Metabolic Disorders

Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, Volume 49, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs) are a diverse and complex group of genetic conditions resulting from deficiencies in enzymes, transporters, or cofactors. These deficiencies lead to metabolic dysfunction and severe clinical consequences. Despite significant progress in understanding their molecular basis, treatment options remain limited ...

m5C related-regulator-mediated methylation modification patterns and prognostic significance in breast cancer

, 2023
Abstract Background: Breast cancer (BC) is the most common malignancy worldwide. 5-methylcytosine (m5C) is closely related to cancer and its mechanism in BC remains unclear. We aimed to assess the expression of m5C regulators involved in BC and investigate their correlation with the prognosis of BC.
