Fast & fuelious: the malate–aspartate shuttle in brown adipocyte lipid metabolism

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Brown adipose tissue (BAT) produces heat in response to cold exposure, for which it relies on the coordination of aerobic and anaerobic metabolism. However, how reaction intermediates connect these two essential pathways is unclear. In this issue of The FEBS Journal, Veliova et al., report that the malate–aspartate shuttle (MAS) supports norepinephrine‐

Light Activated Induction of Cuproptosis in Resistant Cancer Cells Using Polymeric BODIPY Nanoparticles for Photoactivated Chemotherapy

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 44, 1 June 2026.
This article presents a photo‐responsive nanoparticle platform that precisely triggers copper‐dependent cuproptotic cell death in (drug‐resistant) cancer cells. The system remains stable and inactive in the dark but releases cytotoxic species upon red‐light irradiation, achieving potent activity in drug‐resistant breast cancer cells.

Exploring and Targeting the Connection of Iron and Copper Homeostasis to Neurodegenerative Diseases

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 6, June 2026.
Iron and copper dyshomeostasis, along with their interactions with key intrinsically disordered proteins (e.g., Aβ, tau, α‐synuclein) have a strong implication in the onset and progression of neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), Prion diseases (PrDs), Huntington's disease (HD), Wilson's disease (WD),

Regulated Cell Death in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 9, 15 May 2026.
This graphical abstract illustrates regulated cell death (RCD) across key pulmonary cell types—including alveolar epithelial cells, fibroblasts, macrophages, and endothelial cells—modulated through a dynamic death modulation network within the IPF microenvironment.

Copper-induced cell death mechanisms and their role in the tumor microenvironment

Frontiers in Cell Death
Copper is an essential cofactor for all organisms. However, it can become toxic if its concentration rises above a specific level. This level is controlled by evolutionary conserved homeostatic mechanisms.

Cuproptosis and Disulfidptosis Converge to Empower PD‐L1 Checkpoint Therapy via Cadict‐Induced PD‐L1 Translation

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 25, 4 May 2026.
This study introduces Cadict, an EGFR‐targeted nanodrug that co‐delivers cuproptosis and disulfidptosis inducers to overcome immune resistance. Cadict synergistically enhances tumor cytotoxicity and sensitizes cancers to ICIs by upregulating PD‐L1 via an Eif5b‐dependent translation mechanism, fostering a potent antitumor immune response and ...

The Potential Mechanism of Cuproptosis in Hemocytes of the Pacific Oyster Crassostrea gigas upon Elesclomol Treatment

Cells
Cuproptosis is a novel cell death dependent on mitochondrial respiration and regulated by copper. While the study of it is mainly focused on tumor therapy, in the present study, two key cuproptosis-related genes, ferredoxin (FDX1) and dihydrolipoamide S ...

Mechanism-Driven Metabolic Engineering for Bio-Based Production of Free R-Lipoic Acid in Saccharomyces cerevisiae Mitochondria

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2020
Lipoic acid is a valuable organosulfur compound used as an antioxidant for dietary supplementation, and potentially anti-diabetic and anti-cancer. Currently, lipoic acid is obtained mainly through chemical synthesis, which requires toxic reagents and ...

Identification and Validation of DLD as a Cuproptosis‐Associated Biomarker in Preeclampsia

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 8, 30 April 2026.
DLD is identified as a preeclampsia‐associated cuproptosis hub gene by bioinformatics. DLD overexpression inhibits trophoblast proliferation, invasion, and migration, disrupts TCA cycle metabolism, and alters mitochondrial ultrastructure. These findings reveal that DLD may contribute to preeclampsia pathogenesis through cuproptosis.
