STAT6 Activation Exacerbates Ferroptosis in Airway Epithelium by Inhibiting PRKN‐Mediated Mitophagy in Pulmonary Fibrosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study uncovers STAT6‐driven pulmonary fibrosis (PF) via suppression of PRKN‐mediated airway epithelial mitophagy, triggering mitochondrial dysfunction and ferroptosis. Rifabutin is identified as a potent STAT6 inhibitor that effectively reverses fibrotic progression. These findings reveal the STAT6‐PRKN axis as a pathogenic regulator and provide a

ACCase 6 is the essential acetyl-CoA carboxylase involved in fatty acid and mycolic acid biosynthesis in mycobacteria [PDF]

, 2009
Mycolic acids are essential for the survival, virulence and antibiotic resistance of the human pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Inhibitors of mycolic acid biosynthesis, such as isoniazid and ethionamide, have been used as efficient drugs for the ...

Activation of Kir4.1 Channels by 2‐D08 Promotes Myelin Repair in Multiple Sclerosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Multiple sclerosis causes myelin loss and neurological dysfunction. This study shows that 2‐D08, a small molecule targeting Kir4.1 channels, promotes OPCs differentiation via FYN tyrosine kinase phosphorylation and the FYN/MYRF pathway. It significantly improves myelin repair and motor deficits in EAE mice and marmosets, highlighting its potential as a

A point mutation in cycA partially contributes to the D-cycloserine resistance trait of Mycobacterium bovis BCG vaccine strains. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
In mycobacteria, CycA a D-serine, L- and D-alanine, and glycine transporter also functions in the uptake of D-cycloserine, an important second-line anti-tubercular drug. A single nucleotide polymorphism identified in the cycA gene of BCG was hypothesized

Mycobacterium tuberculosis phagosome [PDF]

Molecular Microbiology, 1999
The arrest of Mycobacterium tuberculosis phagosome maturation in infected macrophages is a phenomenon of dual significance both for the pathogenesis of tuberculosis and as a model system to study interference of microbes with membrane trafficking and organelle biogenesis in host cells.

Critical Role of IL1R2‐ENO1 Interaction in Inhibiting Glycolysis‐Mediated Pyroptosis for Protection Against Lethal Sepsis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The authors have discovered that intracellular interleukin 1 receptor 2 (IL1R2) negatively regulates pyroptosis and inflammation by inhibiting glycolysis in sepsis. Soluble IL1R2 is released from macrophages undergoing pyroptosis. IL1R2 acts as a novel negative regulator of glycolysis by interacting with enolase 1 (ENO1), thereby inhibiting gasdermin D

A Multinational Analysis of Mutations and Heterogeneity in PZase, RpsA, and PanD Associated with Pyrazinamide Resistance in M/XDR Mycobacterium tuberculosis. [PDF]

, 2017
Pyrazinamide (PZA) is an important first-line drug in all existing and new tuberculosis (TB) treatment regimens. PZA-resistance in M. tuberculosis is increasing, especially among M/XDR cases.

The Multitarget Compound ZLY032 Achieves Treatment of Chronic Wounds

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ZLY032, a dual free fatty acid receptor 1/peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor δ agonist, accelerates wound healing in normal/diabetic/methicillin‐resistant Staphylococcus aureus‐infected models by promoting angiogenesis, reducing inflammation, and exhibiting antibacterial activity via argininosuccinate lyase targeting, with demonstrated efficacy

A Human Immuno‐Lung Organoid Model to Study Macrophage‐Mediated Lung Cell Senescence Upon SARS‐CoV‐2 Infection

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Immuno‐lung organoids are developed and used spatial transcriptomics to uncover how proinflammatory macrophages drive lung cell senescence via the THBS1–(ITGA3+ITGB1) axis in COVID‐19. To ensure broad accessibility, LungSpatialDB is created, an AI‐powered data portal, enabling intuitive exploration of spatial data and biological insights through ...
