Fatty Acid Metabolism in Health and Cancer: From Fundamental Mechanisms to Therapeutic Application

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 6, June 2026.
The modulation of the TME by fatty acid metabolism primarily occurs through four key pathways: inflammation regulation, signal transduction, translation to TME, and oxidative stress. ABSTRACT Fatty acid metabolism (FAM) plays a vital role in maintaining health by supporting energy production, cellular structure, and signaling processes.

Encephalopathy: Cause, Pathogenesis, and Treatment

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 6, June 2026.
Various encephalopathies (sepsis‐associated, hepatic, hypoxic–ischemic, diabetic, uremic, toxic) have incompletely elucidated pathogenesis, which severely restricts targeted therapy development. Small molecule drugs show unique multitarget potential but face toxicity, poor blood–brain barrier penetration and unclear specificity.

Altitude‐Associated Divergence of the Gut Microbiome in Endangered Forest Musk Deer: Evidence From Integrated Metagenomics, Metabolomics, and Culturomics

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT High‐altitude environments expose mammals and their gut symbionts to multifaceted stressors—hypoxia, cold, and intense UV radiation. Whether gut microbial communities undergo compositional restructuring in response to these stressors, and whether such restructuring carries translational value for captive conservation, remain unresolved ...

Beyond the HPA axis: progesterone-derived neuroactive steroids in human stress and emotion

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2011
Stress and social isolation are well-known risk factors for psychopathology. However, more research is needed as to the physiological mechanisms by which social support buffers the impacts of stress. Research in animal models suggests important roles for

The endogenous cannabinoid system gates plasticity of tonic GABA inhibition

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, Volume 604, Issue 12, Page 4984-5010, 15 June 2026.
Abstract figure legend Postsynaptic depolarisation and increases in intracellular Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) trigger the synthesis of endocannabinoids (eCBs), which are hypothesised to enhance tonic GABAergic inhibition via two primary pathways. In the proposed autocrine mechanism, eCBs activate postsynaptic somatodendritic or mitochondrial CB1 receptors ...

Increased motor-impairing effects of the neuroactive steroid pregnanolone in mice with targeted inactivation of the GABAA receptor gamma2 subunit in the cerebellum

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2016
Endogenous neurosteroids and neuroactive steroids have potent and widespread actions on the brain via inhibitory GABAA receptors. In recombinant receptors and genetic mouse models their actions depend on the alpha, beta and delta subunits of the receptor,
