Is Enhancer Function Driven by Protein–Protein Interactions? From Bacteria to Leukemia
Enhancers are key regulatory elements that are conceptually conserved from bacteria to humans. Enhancer dysregulation is common in cancers, including leukemia. We argue that highly specific protein–protein interactions, including transcription factors, mediate enhancer‐promoter proximity to allow enhancer‐bound factors to directly act on RNA polymerase

A snapshot of the role of estrogen‐regulated divergent non‐coding transcripts
The expansion of genome‐wide studies has identified widespread transcription that may result in previously unstudied transcripts, such as divergent long non‐coding RNAs. Abstract Recent high‐throughput sequencing technologies have discovered various polymerase II transcribed transcripts.

Antisenescence therapies for age‐related bone loss: Target factors, medicines, biomedical materials
With extended lifespans causing population aging, bone aging has become a worldwide issue. Cellular senescence in the bone microenvironment causes bone degeneration and dysfunction. This review summarises targets in cellular senescence and bone aging while detailing potential therapeutic strategies, including novel medicines and innovative biomedical ...

This study demonstrates the antiobesity potential of Halymenia durvillei (H. durvillei) extracts using a Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) obesity model. The extracts significantly reduced total fat accumulation, lowered reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, and extended the lifespan in glucose‐fed C. elegans. These beneficial effects may be mediated

Main Points Inactivating the INO80 chromatin remodelling complex greatly extends the oligodendrocyte precursor (OP) cell cycle by prolonging G1. INO80 acts in OPs via histone H2A/H2A.Z exchange. INO80 binds the transcriptional regulator OLIG2 in OPs.
