Beyond Tradition: An Integrated Toxicological, Ecological, and Public Health Perspective on Aristolochic Acids

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aristolochia species have long been used in traditional medicine for their presumed anti‐inflammatory, analgesic and antimicrobial properties. However, extensive toxicological and epidemiological evidence now demonstrates that these plants contain aristolochic acids (AAs) I and II, highly potent nephrotoxic, genotoxic, and carcinogenic ...

Epirubicin Alters Pancreatic Autophagy and Insulin Synthesis Through a Zinc‐Dependent Mechanism

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Epirubicin (EPI) can cause metabolic side effects, including chemotherapy‐related diabetes, partly through oxidative stress that disrupts zinc (Zn) homeostasis and impairs autophagy. This study investigated the effects of EPI on Zn regulation and autophagy in the pancreas, as well as the modulatory role of N‐acetylcysteine (NAC). Rats received

Oncogenic KRAS Rewires Stress Granule Dynamics: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Opportunities

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Stress granules (SGs) are dynamic, membrane‐less structures that form in response to various cellular stresses, including metabolic, oxidative, and therapeutic challenges. They function as adaptive hubs and reorganize protein synthesis and signaling networks to help cells survive under stress. In cancer, these condensates are often hijacked to

WDR72 Drives Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma Progression by Inhibiting Autophagy via the PI3K/Akt/mTOR Pathway

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is an aggressive malignancy with a high rate of recurrence and metastasis, necessitating the identification of novel therapeutic targets. WD repeat‐containing protein 72 (WDR72) has been linked to various cancers, but its specific biological function and underlying mechanism in ESCC remain largely ...

LKB1 Loss Sensitizes Lung Tumor Spheres to Mitomet‐Induced Ferroptosis, and These Effects are Enhanced by mTOR Inhibition

Molecular Carcinogenesis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Owing to their robust antioxidant defense mechanisms, cancer stem‐like cells (CSCs) maintain a low level of oxidative stress, which is crucial for preserving stemness and pluripotency. Therefore, agents that either directly generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) or inhibit the antioxidant defense systems can selectively induce oxidative cell ...

Osteoarthritis: An Immuno‐Inflammatory Disease‐Mechanisms of Immune Cell Dysregulation and Potential Therapeutic Strategies

Med Research, EarlyView.
This review summarizes the immuno‐inflammatory mechanisms driving the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis (OA), extending beyond the traditional view of OA as a purely degenerative disease to incorporate immune cell infiltration, inflammatory factor release, and the formation of a chronic low‐grade inflammatory microenvironment.

Post‐recanalization administration of rapamycin improves functional outcome and reduces infarct size in a rat model of ischemic stroke

Neuroprotection, EarlyView.
Experimental design and main findings of the study. Transient middle cerebral artery occlusion was induced for 90 min in rats, followed by intravenous administration of rapamycin or vehicle at the time of recanalization. Functional outcome (Garcia scale and adhesive removal test), magnetic resonance imaging‐based infarct volume assessment, and cerebral

Alterations in Metabolites Associated With Umbilical Cord Blood in Monozygotic Twins Discordant for Congenital Heart Disease

Pediatric Discovery, EarlyView.
This study found that the metabolomic signature of umbilical venous cord blood in congenital heart disease (CHD) differs from that of healthy monozygotic (MZ) co‐twins. Dysregulation of metabolic pathways like glucose, lipid, and amino acid metabolism, along with altered metabolites, helps understand CHD predisposition.

Proteomic Characterization of AS1411 Reveals ATP6AP1 as a Mediator of Triple‐Negative Breast Cancer Progression

PROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Triple‐negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive subtype of breast cancer characterized by high metastatic potential, poor prognosis, and limited effective therapeutic options. In this study, we investigated the molecular mechanisms underlying the anticancer effects of the nucleolin (NCL)‐targeting DNA aptamer AS1411 using label‐free ...
