Background: Circumventricular organs (CVOs) are specialized structures border the brain ventricles and lack the blood-brain barrier. These CVOs are lined by specialized ependymal cells (ECs) called tanycyte.

Regulation of Intestinal Butyrate Transporters by Oxidative and Inflammatory Status
Beneficial effects of the microbiota-derived metabolite butyrate at the colonic level are well established, particularly through its relevance in colorectal cancer (CRC) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), two major intestinal pathologies.

The role of the genetic factor of lactate transport in endurance sports
Background and purpose With the growth of sports results, more and more attention is paid to identifying the role of genetic factors in various metabolic processes. One of these factors is the protein responsible for the transport of lactate.

Allan-Herndon-Dudley syndrome (AHDS) is an X-linked disorder characterized by profound psychomotor impairment. It is caused by mutations in the SLC16A2 gene, which encodes monocarboxylate transporter 8 (MCT8), a crucial thyroid hormone transporter.

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Tian et al. reveal that FH K112 lactylation is elevated after TBI, leading to fumarate accumulation, mitochondrial damage, mtDNA release and amplified neuroinflammation. AARS2 and SIRT3 act as the “writer” and “eraser” for FH K112 lactylation. The peptide Pep‐K112 targeting this site alleviates brain injury, highlighting a potential therapeutic target.

CD112 Lactylation Drives Dual Immune Evasion From CD8+ T Cells and NK Cells
AARS2 functions as an intracellular lactate sensor and lactyltransferase, catalyzing CD112 K412 lactylation to block ubiquitination‐dependent degradation and stabilize CD112. This pathway suppresses CD8+ T‐cell and NK‐cell cytotoxicity, enabling dual immune evasion.
