Mapping Causal Biology: Mendelian Randomization in the Era of Big Data
Mendelian randomization (MR) leverages genetic variants to mitigate confounding biases in causal inference. This review systematically maps MR's methodological evolution, highlights its expanding applications in epidemiology and drug target validation, and outlines future directions for overcoming current biases through dynamic, multi‐omics, and cross ...

Prostate Cancer and the Mevalonate Pathway
Antineoplastic therapies for prostate cancer (PCa) have traditionally centered around the androgen receptor (AR) pathway, which has demonstrated a significant role in oncogenesis. Nevertheless, it is becoming progressively apparent that therapeutic strategies must diversify their focus due to the emergence of resistance mechanisms that the tumor ...

Abstract The progression of colorectal cancer (CRC) is critically regulated by cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) within the tumor microenvironment (TME), yet the specific molecular mechanisms by which CAFs influence CRC remain unclear. This study reveals the mechanism by which CAFs promote CRC malignant progression and immune suppression through ...

The Potential of Isoprenoids in Adjuvant Cancer Therapy to Reduce Adverse Effects of Statins
The mevalonate pathway provides sterols for membrane structure and nonsterol intermediates for the post-translational modification and membrane anchorage of growth-related proteins, including the Ras, Rac, and Rho GTPase family.

Gut microbiota dysbiosis and Long COVID susceptibility in chronic kidney disease
This study investigated gut microbiota dysbiosis and its association with Long COVID susceptibility in 224 hemodialysis patients. We found that 35.3% of patients developed Long COVID, characterized by neurological symptoms and elevated inflammatory markers, accompanied by significant gut microbiota alterations including enriched proinflammatory taxa ...

Magnetothermal‐responsive drug release bone cement based on EGFR‐mutated lung cancer bone metastases
A novel magnetothermal‐responsive bone cement was developed by integrating PMMA/CPC/Osimertinib matrix with Fe3O4@SiO2@Zol nanomaterials. This dual‐drug system achieves controlled release, combining excellent mechanical properties with potent anti‐tumor activity and bone regulation for treating EGFR‐mutated LC‐BoM.
