Dynamics of Bacteriophage Genome Ejection In Vitro and In Vivo

open access: yes, 2010
Bacteriophages, phages for short, are viruses of bacteria. The majority of phages contain a double-stranded DNA genome packaged in a capsid at a density of ~500 mg/ml. This high density requires substantial compression of the normal B form helix, leading

Chronic PET‐Microplastic Exposure: Disruption of Gut–Liver Homeostasis and Risk of Hepatic Steatosis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Chronic exposure to environmentally relevant PET microplastics disrupts gut–liver homeostasis, leading to hepatic steatosis, early fibrosis, and altered gut microbiota. These effects signal metabolic imbalance and gut–liver axis impairment, emphasizing chronic microplastic ingestion as an emerging environmental health risk linked to non‐communicable ...

Targeting WEE1 in ARID1A/TP53 Concurrent Mutant Colorectal Cancer by Exploiting R‐Loop Accumulation and DNA Repair Deficiencies

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ARID1A, a SWI/SNF complex component, is frequently mutated in colorectal cancer (CRC). CRC with ARID1A/TP53 concurrent mutations shows marked sensitivity to WEE1 inhibition. ARID1A loss induces R‐loop‐mediated replication stress, impairs ATF3 transcription, and amplifies WEE1i‐induced DNA damage, suggesting a promising therapeutic vulnerability ...

ARL5B Drives Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma Progression via ROCK1–SREBP1‐Mediated Lipid Metabolic Reprogramming

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma urgently requires new therapeutic strategies. Adenosine diphosphate‐ribosylation factor‐like protein 5B (ARL5B) is identified as a novel oncogene that remodels fatty acid metabolism through the ras homologous‐associated coiled‐coil containing protein kinase 1 (ROCK1)–sterol regulatory element‐binding protein 1 (SREBP1)
