Aptamer–Based Targeted Protein Degradation: Mechanistic Principles, Delivery Strategies, and Translational Opportunities

open access: yesMedicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Targeted elimination of pathogenic proteins remains a fundamental challenge in therapeutic intervention, particularly for proteins considered “undruggable” by conventional inhibition‐based approaches. Aptamer–based targeted protein degradation (TPD) has emerged as a versatile strategy that leverages the high specificity, structural ...

Applications of nanocarrier‐delivered RNA interference in agricultural biological control (2009–2025)

open access: yesNew Plant Protection, EarlyView.
Despite 17 years of development, the effectiveness of nanocarrier‐delivered RNAi pesticide (NDRP) for agricultural biological control remains limited. The successful development of effective NDRP development requires the coordinated optimization of target gene selection and nanocarrier properties, including RNA dosage, multi‐gene targeting, protection ...

Antinociceptive effect of morphine microinjections into the spinal trigeminal subnucleus oralis.

open access: yes, 1995
International audienceWe analysed the effects of morphine microinjections (0.2 microliter) into the subnucleus oralis (SNO), i.e. the rostral division of the spinal trigeminal nucleus, on the formalin test adapted for orofacial pain.

Transcriptomic resources and functional validation of RNAi in the cabbage seedpod weevil, Ceutorhynchus obstrictus

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Transcriptome sequencing of Ceutorhynchus obstrictus revealed RNA interference (RNAi) targets; double‐stranded RNA microinjection reduced transcript levels and increased mortality, with αCOP and Rop showing strongest lethal effects, indicating promising RNAi‐based pest control candidates.

LsFAMeT and LsJHAMT coordinate JH biosynthesis to regulate fecundity in Laodelphax striatellus

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
The small brown planthopper (SBPH), Laodelphax striatellus, can trigger large‐scale outbreaks when encountering suitable habitats during migration due to their strong reproductive ability. This study investigated the role of juvenile hormone (JH) in regulating SBPH reproduction.

Exploring the potential of using male‐killing endosymbionts to induce female‐biased insect populations for enhanced biomass production

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Overview of the mindset and long‐term goals with the approach suggested in this study. We provide a first proof of concept that male‐killing endosymbionts can be used to establish female biased populations with higher production efficiency than populations with a 50/50 sex ratio. This biological tool can have marked positive impact on future commercial

A horizontally acquired pantothenate gene drives vitellogenin's benefit to whitefly symbiosis persistence

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
This diagram illustrates that the horizontally transferred panBC influences the level and localization of vitellogenin (Vg) by facilitating pantothenate production and juvenile hormone (JH) biosynthesis. In turn, Vg shields symbionts by suppressing autophagic degradation in bacteriocytes.

Aphid and endosymbiont sensitivity to heatwaves is misaligned across life stages

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Aphids depend on the obligate symbiont Buchnera aphidicola, which may constrain thermal tolerance. Using a factorial heatwave experiment, we exposed nymphs and adults to moderate or extreme temperatures and measured fitness and symbiont responses.
