Malaria mosquito antimicrobial defence requires immunity and detoxification gene regulation by Lola

Insect Molecular Biology, Volume 35, Issue 5, Page 576-593, October 2026.
Malaria mosquito antimicrobial defence requires upregulation of lola. Attenuation of lola in the midgut of Anopheles albimanus mosquitoes inhibits the upregulation of immunity genes induced by challenge. Putative target genes of the Lola transcription factor were revealed by lola attenuation, including Cecropin‐C, Draper, PPAF2, Clip‐domain serine ...

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics

FEBS Letters, Volume 600, Issue 17, Page 2526-2546, September 2026.
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

Trafficking defects in endogenously synthesized cholesterol in fibroblasts, macrophages, hepatocytes, and glial cells from Niemann-Pick type C1 mice

Journal of Lipid Research, 2003
Niemann-Pick type C1 disease (NPC1) is an inherited neurovisceral lipid storage disorder, hallmarked by the intracellular accumulation of unesterified cholesterol and glycolipids in endocytic organelles. Cells acquire cholesterol through exogenous uptake

Metabolic Memory in Cardiovascular Disease: Encoding, Propagation, and Therapeutic Targeting

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 54, 28 September 2026.
Cardiovascular risk often persists after metabolic abnormalities are corrected. This conceptual Review frames such persistence as metabolic memory, encoded through a narrowing therapeutic window from reversible marks to irreversible damage, with continuous input from peripheral organs.

Localization of the murine Niemann-Pick C1 protein to two distinct intracellular compartments

Journal of Lipid Research, 2000
Niemann-Pick type C (NPC) disease is characterized by an accumulation of cholesterol and other lipids in the lysosomal compartment. In this report, we use subcellular fractionation and microscopy to determine the localization of the murine Niemann-Pick ...

A multiplex interactome of Ebola virus proteins reveals TM9SF2 as a cell‐surface attachment factor that promotes viral entry

iMetaOmics, Volume 3, Issue 3, September 2026.
This study generates a comprehensive Ebola virus (EBOV)‐human protein–protein interactome, comprising 1728 core high‐confidence interactions. Further interactome analysis revealed the potential association of EBOV glycoprotein (GP) with the host factor TM9SF2. Subsequent mechanistic investigations confirmed that TM9SF2 functions as an attachment factor

Recovery from liver disease in a Niemann-Pick type C mouse model

Journal of Lipid Research, 2010
Loss of function of Niemann-Pick C1 (NPC1) leads to lysosomal free cholesterol storage, resulting in the neurodegenerative disease Niemann-Pick disease type C (NPC). Significant numbers of patients with NPC also suffer from liver disease.

The NPC1L1 Polymorphism 1679C>G Is Associated with Gallstone Disease in Chinese Patients. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
Niemann Pick Type C1 Like 1 (NPC1L1) protein plays a key role in intestinal and hepatic cholesterol metabolism in humans. Genetic variation in NPC1L1 has been widely studied in recent years.

Deciphering the Mechanisms of Statin–Ezetimibe Drug Combinations Using Boolean Logical Modeling and Transcriptomic Data

CPT: Pharmacometrics &Systems Pharmacology, Volume 15, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Drug Combinations offer increased therapeutic efficacy and reduced toxicity compared with single agents. Understanding a drug combination's mechanisms of action (MoA) can provide important insights into therapeutic efficacy. The MoA of many FDA‐approved drugs, however, often remains unclear.
