Vacuolization as a Novel Approach to Cancer Therapy
This review discusses the novel strategy of inducing vacuole formation in cancer cells using small molecules, that induce nonapoptotic cell death mechanisms, such as paraptosis, oncosis, autophagy, and methuosis, and its potential in overcoming resistance to apoptosis‐based cancer therapies.

RNAs Associated With Bacterial Outer Membrane Vesicles: Structural Insights Into Surface Composition
This work uncovers a new layer of bacterial communication. We show that RNAs, aided by the Hfq RNA‐chaperone, are not only packed inside Gram negative Outer Membrane Vesicles (OMVs) but can also be embedded in their membranes. This suggests that bacteria may use surface‐exposed RNAs to directly interact with host cells. Overall, our results broaden the

Secretome and Pathway Analysis of Stress Induced Disc Degeneration In Vitro
Integrated secretome and phosphoprotein profiling of human nucleus pulposus cells revealed that IL‐1β and TLR2/6 activation induce a shared degenerative program, defined by consistent upregulation of IL‐6, IL‐8, GRO‐α, ICAM‐1, and MMP‐7 and convergence on NF‐κB/AP‐1 signaling.

Acute Lung Injury: From Molecular Circuits to System‐Level Therapeutics
This visual summary illustrates the paradigm shift from linear pathways to network medicine in ALI. Three interconnected circuits—innate immunity, immunometabolism, and cell death (PANoptosis)—drive disease progression under multiorgan crosstalk (gut–lung, brain–lung).

ABSTRACT Circadian rhythms orchestrate cardiovascular physiology by regulating immune and inflammatory pathways. Disruption of these rhythms profoundly alters vascular homeostasis, thereby promoting the onset and progression of cardiovascular diseases (CVD).

Inflammation, Immunity, and Cardiovascular Diseases
Cardiovascular stress signals (e.g., hemodynamic shear, oxidized lipids, and ischemia) act on endothelial and immune cells to activate and amplify inflammation through NF‐κB, the NLRP3 inflammasome, and JAK/STAT signaling, inducing proinflammatory cytokines/chemokines (IL‐6, IL‐1β, TNF‐α, and CCL2) and self‐amplifying circuits; clinically, inflammatory
