The ubiquitin‐proteasome system and autophagy as guardians of the cellular proteome

FEBS Letters, Volume 600, Issue 13, Page 1829-1841, July 2026.
This Perspective covers the three principles governing the crosstalk between the ubiquitin‐proteasome system and autophagy in cellular proteostasis: (1) a shared ubiquitin code routing substrates via shuttle factors or autophagy receptors; (2) spatial compartmentalization into phase‐separated degradation hubs and organelle‐specific modules (exemplified

Intestinal Source Control of Lipid Metabolism by Enzyme‐Probiotic Encapsulated, Spatiotemporal Crosslinked, and Small Intestine‐Adhesive Hydrogel Microspheres

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 39, 13 July 2026.
A thiol‐modified alginate hydrogel microsphere‐encapsulated enzyme‐probiotic biohybrid (AKK‐COD) system has been developed to address the spatiotemporal delivery and colonization challenges of small intestine‐targeted probiotic for lipid metabolism regulation. The system exerts sequential functions of intragastric protection, small intestinal adhesion,

Schizophrenic Phenotype and Therapeutic Course Associated With Chromosome 22q11.2 Deletion in a Cohort Without Prior Diagnosis of Chromosome 22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, Volume 201, Issue 5, Page 331-337, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Chromosome 22q11.2 deletion is the greatest single genetic factor predisposing to schizophrenia. The prevalence of schizophrenia reported ranges from 2% to 30% in patients with chromosome 22q11.2 deletion syndrome with a still discussed phenotype.

Cholesterol‐Lowering Treatment Blocks Epithelial‐Mesenchymal Transition (EMT) Associated Invasiveness and Drug Resistance in Breast and Colorectal Adenocarcinoma Models

Cancer Medicine, Volume 15, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a cellular process involved in the invasion and metastasis of cancer cells. Deregulated cellular cholesterol is associated with treatment resistance and metastatic potential in cancer cells; however, the link between EMT and cholesterol is unclear.

Clinical Characteristics of 19 Patients With Acid Sphingomyelinase Deficiency: A Case Series From Multiple Centers in Argentina

JIMD Reports, Volume 67, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Acid sphingomyelinase deficiency (ASMD), historically known as Niemann‐Pick disease, is a rare and potentially fatal lysosomal storage disease caused by pathogenic variants in the sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase 1 (SMPD1) gene, which encodes acid sphingomyelinase (ASM).

Lipid Antigen Presentation by CD1b and CD1d in Lysosomal Storage Disease Patients

Frontiers in Immunology, 2019
The lysosome has a key role in the presentation of lipid antigens by CD1 molecules. While defects in lipid antigen presentation and in invariant Natural Killer T (iNKT) cell response were detected in several mouse models of lysosomal storage diseases ...
