Endocrinology, Diabetes &Metabolism, Volume 9, Issue 5, September 2026.The primary function of statins is to inhibit cholesterol synthesis, which contributes to their antidiabetic effects. However, the majority of the diabetic effects of statins are due to inhibition of isoprenoid synthesis. Atorvastatin, simvastatin and rosuvastatin possess the most pronounced diabetogenic properties. In contrast, lovastatin, fluvastatin,

The effect of anions on the human P2X7 receptor [PDF]
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Biomembranes, 2011 P2X7 receptors (P2X7Rs) are nonselective cation channels that are opened by the binding of extracellular ATP and are involved in the modulation of epithelial secretion, inflammation and nociception. Here, we investigated the effect of extracellular anions on channel gating and permeation of human P2X7Rs (hP2X7Rs) expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes ...

P2x7 receptors control demyelination and inflammation in the cuprizone model
Brain, Behavior, & Immunity - Health, 2020 The contribution of P2x7 receptors to multiple sclerosis remains controversial, as both detrimental and beneficial effects resulting from P2x7 receptor loss-of-function have been reported in autoimmune models of the disease.

Mapping Trofinetide Polypharmacology in Rett Syndrome: A Multi‐Stage Computational Analysis
Journal of Computational Chemistry, Volume 47, Issue 21, August 5, 2026.How can a single molecule address the complex symptoms of Rett syndrome? This computational study maps the multi‐target mechanism of trofinetide, revealing diverse modes of binding across five key receptors: GAT1, GABAA, CHRM1, AMPA, and GSK3β. From deep orthosteric anchoring to dynamic surface interactions, these structural insights provide a rational

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 44, 7 August 2026.ABSTRACT Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) remains a leading cause of cancer mortality with limited therapeutic options. Disulfidptosis, a novel cell death modality driven by disulfide stress, represents a promising target, yet its regulation in LUAD is poorly defined. Here, we identify Pannexin 2 (PANX2) as a tumor suppressor in LUAD.

Clinical and Translational Discovery, Volume 6, Issue 4, August 2026.1. Indoleamine 2,3‐dioxygenase (IDO) acts as a time‐dependent metabolic–immune switch in the acute kidney injury‐to‐chronic kidney disease transition, protective early but pathogenic when sustained. 2. Early protection (regulatory T cell expansion, M2 polarisation and ferroptosis suppression) gives way to general control nonderepressible 2‐driven ...

Journal of Food Science, Volume 91, Issue 8, August 2026.ABSTRACT Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a central component of the metabolic syndrome (MetS) and is associated with underlying mitochondrial dysfunction. Disruption of mitochondrial homeostasis impairs cellular energy metabolism and contributes to the overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS), leading to oxidative stress, chronic inflammation,

Gasdermin‐Mediated Pyroptosis: Novel Strategies Against Colorectal Cancer
Cancer Science, Volume 117, Issue 8, Page 2064-2084, August 2026.Pyroptosis is a double‐edged sword in colorectal cancer (CRC): chronic low‐grade pyroptosis promotes tumor progression, whereas acute induction of pyroptosis in cancer cells triggers antitumor immunity and enhances therapeutic response. Targeting gasdermin‐mediated pyroptosis represents a promising strategy for CRC treatment.

Electrochemical Three‐Component Synthesis of Heteroaryl Sulfonates
European Journal of Organic Chemistry, Volume 29, Issue 27, 17 July 2026.An electrochemical, metal‐free three‐component strategy for direct C(sp2)─H sulfonation of electron‐rich heteroarenes using SO2 and alcohols is described. Utilizing inexpensive graphite electrodes and practical SO2 stock solutions under mild conditions, this method provides straightforward access to heteroaryl sulfonates from simple building blocks ...
