LUCID: An Integrative Approach for Target Discovery and dsRNA Design in Plant Fungal Pathogens

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
LUCID: A computational pipeline for RNAi‐based biofungicide design. ABSTRACT Phytopathogenic fungi pose an escalating threat to global food security and ecosystem stability, as resistance and environmental concerns diminish the effectiveness of conventional fungicides.

Natural Products Targeting Protein Disulfide Isomerases: New Frontiers for Diabetes, Cancer, and Coagulation

Food Frontiers
The protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) family comprises 21 members that have oxidase, reductase, isomerase, and foldase activities essential for human health and disease. Protein disulfide isomerase A4 (PDIA4) is the largest member in this family.

Plant Peptides on the Rise: From Historical Insight to Future Applications

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant peptides constitute a rapidly expanding class of signalling molecules essential to plant physiology, mediating key processes such as development, stress adaptation, and immune responses. This review traces the history of plant peptide research, from the seminal discovery of systemin to the recent identification of non‐canonical peptides (

Protein Disulfide Isomerase Modulates the Activation of Thyroid Hormone Receptors

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2019
Thyroid hormone receptors (TRs) are responsible for mediating thyroid hormone (T3 and T4) actions at a cellular level. They belong to the nuclear receptor (NR) superfamily and execute their main functions inside the cell nuclei as hormone-regulated ...

Unfolding Plant Defence: Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress Signalling at the Plant‐Pathogen Interface

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress response, a conserved proteostasis network, has emerged as a central hub that reprograms plant immunity during pathogen attack. This review synthesises how plants harness ER‐stress signalling to mount multilayered defences and how pathogens have evolved counterstrategies to subvert these pathways.

Immune, molecular and genetic profiles of gastric signet ring cell carcinoma: Recent progress and future challenges

International Journal of Cancer, Volume 159, Issue 1, Page 11-29, 1 July 2026.
Abstract Gastric signet ring cell carcinoma (GSRCC) is a special type of gastric cancer common in young women. Diffuse gastric cancer (DGC) begins with intramucosal lesions comprising differentiated GSRCC cells. Genetically, GSRCC and DGC are clonally identical, with their morphology influenced by extracellular Wnt signaling.

Ethanol Induced Disordering of Pancreatic Acinar Cell Endoplasmic Reticulum: An ER Stress/Defective Unfolded Protein Response Model. [PDF]

, 2018
Background & aimsHeavy alcohol drinking is associated with pancreatitis, whereas moderate intake lowers the risk. Mice fed ethanol long term show no pancreas damage unless adaptive/protective responses mediating proteostasis are disrupted. Pancreatic

Redox Regulation and Oxidative Stress in Health and Disease: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Targeting

MedComm – Future Medicine, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
Reactive species serve crucial roles which are tightly regulated in both physiological as well as disease states. At physiological levels, these species are integral to redox signaling, while uncontrolled redox promotes disease pathology. This review examines the dysregulation of these processes.

Oxidative Stress in the Tumor Immune Microenvironment: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Perspectives

MedComm – Oncology, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
Oxidative stress is involved in several key processes in cancer, including redox regulation, DNA damage, post‐translational modifications, transcriptional regulation, epigenetic modifications, metabolic reprogramming, cell death, and immune modulation. These mechanisms collectively influence tumor progression, immune evasion, and therapeutic responses,
