Underground Signals: The Ecological Power of Root Volatiles
Root volatiles mediate rhizosphere chemical communication, shaping interactions among plants, microbes, herbivores, and natural enemies. Their production, transport, and perception underpin ecological adaptation, multitrophic interactions, and plant resilience, offering opportunities for sustainable crop protection, resilient agroecosystems, and ...

Apoptosis induced by clofibrate in Yoshida AH-130 hepatoma cells
Clofibrate is a hypolipidemic drug belonging to the peroxisome proliferator (42) family. PPs are well-recognized hepatocarcinogens, though only for rodents and not for humans.

The effect of diabetes, nutritional factors, and sex on rat liver and kidney mevalonate kinase, mevalonate-5-phosphate kinase, and mevalonate-5-pyrophosphate decarboxylase [PDF]
The activities of rat liver mevalonate kinase (EC 2.7.1.36), mevalonate-5-phosphate kinase (EC 2.7.4.2), and mevalonate-5-pyrophosphate decarboxylase (EC 4.1.1.33) decrease when rats are fasted, fed with a diet containing 2% cholesterol, or made diabetic.

A multi‐omics framework combining multitissue genome‐wide association studies, metabolomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and functional validation uncovers the genetic basis of specialized metabolism in quinoa. The study identifies hundreds of metabolite‐associated loci, prioritizes candidate genes for saponin, betalain, and flavonoid biosynthesis ...

Urinary clearance and metabolism of mevalonate by the isolataed perfused rat kidney.
The urinary excretion and the incorporation into lipids of R[3-14C]mevalonate was investigated in isolated rat kidneys perfused with physiological concentration sof the substrate (80-500 pmol/ml).

Synthesis of mevalonate- and fluorinated mevalonate prodrugs and their in vitro human plasma stability [PDF]
The mevalonate pathway is essential for the production of many important molecules in lipid biosynthesis. Inhibition of this pathway is the mechanism of statin cholesterol-lowering drugs, as well as the target of drugs to treat osteoporosis, to combat parasites, and to inhibit tumor cell growth.

In the pathological context of osteoarthritis (OA), the phosphorylation of AKT1 at Ser473 enhances its binding to Lys140 of Insig1, which facilitates the formation of AKT1–Insig1 complex. Subsequently, the activation of AKT1 promotes the phosphorylation of Insig1 at Ser189, potentially enhancing the dissociation of Insig1 from sterol regulatory element‑

Investigations of the Evolved Molecular Basis for Terpenoid Biosynthesis in Marine Sponges
Confirming and extending a previous observation in another Bubarida sponge, genomic and functional analyses of A. cavernosa reveal that sponges retain the mevalonate pathway and employ single α‐domain T1TSs and UbiA‐type TSs for terpenoid biosynthesis. The absence of T1TSs clustering with other biosynthetic genes tentatively suggests, based on limited ...

Supramolecular Degraders: An Emerging Paradigm in Targeted Protein Degradation
Dynamic supramolecular assembly reshapes targeted protein degradation by coordinating modular degrader construction, delivery, functional integration, and intracellular assembly or activation across proteasomal, endosomal–lysosomal, and autophagy–lysosomal pathways.
