BNC2 exhibits context‐dependent opposing functions across multiple cancer types. This study reveals BNC2 as an oncogenic driver of melanoma proliferation and metastasis through transcriptional activation of PIK3CA. The natural compound TSN simultaneously degrades BNC2 and its oncogenic partner SMAD3 via CRBN‐dependent ubiquitination.

In this work, MSN‐BO@LUT penetrates the blood‐spinal cord barrier for luteolin delivery in spinal cord injury. The nanodrug suppresses neuroinflammation and promotes functional recovery of the spinal cord. Mechanistically, luteolin targets protein arginine N‐methyltransferase (PRMT2) to decrease toll‐like receptor 4 (TLR4) methylation, thereby ...

AARS1 drives PI3K–AKT–mTOR‐dependent glycolysis in bladder cancer, promoting lactate accumulation, increased lactylation, H3K27la enrichment at the HK2 promoter, and HK2 transcription. HK2 reinforces glycolysis, sustaining a metabolic–epigenetic program associated with tumor progression, recurrence, and metastasis.
