Alternative Splicing Regulation in Metabolic Disorders

Obesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Alternative splicing (AS) is a fundamental mechanism for enhancing transcriptome diversity and regulating gene expression, crucial for various cellular processes and the development of complex traits. This review examines the role of AS in metabolic disorders, including obesity, weight loss, dyslipidemias, and metabolic syndrome.

The Landscape of Cancer Metabolism as a Therapeutic Target

Pathology International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cancer cells reprogram their metabolism during progression to adapt to the tumor microenvironment, which is characterized by distinct differences in nutrient availability, oxygen concentrations, and acidity. This metabolic reprogramming can simultaneously create metabolic vulnerabilities unique to cancer cells, making cancer metabolism a ...

Artemisinins in autoimmune diseases: effects and mechanisms in systemic lupus erythematosus and rheumatoid arthritis

British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 182, Issue 15, Page 3411-3427, August 2025.
Abstract Autoimmune diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) result from immune self‐tolerance loss, causing tissue damage. Standard treatments targeting late‐stage inflammation often have serious side effects. Artemisinin, known for its antimalarial properties, shows potential immunomodulatory effects.

Nuclear Receptor ERRγ Protects Against Cardiac Ischemic Injury by Suppressing GBP5‐Mediated Myocardial Inflammation

The FASEB Journal, Volume 39, Issue 14, 31 July 2025.
Cardiomyocyte‐specific overexpression of ERRγ after myocardial infarction improves cardiac function by suppressing the expression of its pro‐inflammatory downstream target GBP5, thereby inhibiting inflammasome assembly, alleviating myocardial inflammation, and pyroptosis.

Disintegration of the KITENIN/ErbB4 Functional Complex by the Flavonoid Hispidulin Suppresses Colorectal Cancer Progression

Advanced Therapeutics, Volume 8, Issue 7, July 2025.
Hispidulin disrupts the KITENIN/ErbB4 oncogenic complex and inhibits KITENIN‐mediated AP‐1 activity, cell invasion, and aerobic glycolysis. It also suppresses the production of cancer‐associated metabolites and downregulates transcriptional regulators downstream of the KITENIN complex.

The Activation of PKM2 Induces Pyroptosis in Hippocampal Neurons via the NLRP3/Caspase‐1/GSDMD Pathway in Neonatal Rats With Hypoxic‐Ischemic Brain Injury

Brain and Behavior
Introduction The presence of hypoxic‐ischemic brain damage (HIBD) in neonates triggers a strong neuroinflammatory reaction. Pyroptosis, a programmed cell death mechanism associated with inflammation, plays a crucial role in HIBD. Pyruvate kinase M2 (PKM2)
