This study identifies ferritin as a pivotal mediator of silica‐induced pulmonary fibrosis. Macrophage‐derived ferritin drives fibroblast‐to‐myofibroblast differentiation via the PIK3R2/SMAD pathway, while ferritin knockdown alleviates fibrosis. These findings define ferritin as both a biomarker and pathogenic driver, highlighting ferritin‐PIK3R2 ...

Pro‐ATO/Allicin Liposomes for Dual‐Pathway Targeting of p53‐Mutant Tumors
Schematic illustration of the “pro‐ATO”/allicin liposomal strategy. Liposomal encapsulation improves the stability and bioavailability of both agents while masking allicin's odor. Upon release in the tumor microenvironment, ATO reactivates structural p53 mutants, and allicin inhibits ATR signaling while releasing H2S, collectively inducing synthetic ...

RIPK3 Orchestrates Scar‐Associated Macrophage Dysfunction to Drive Pulmonary Fibrosis
Beyond signaling cell death, RIPK3 emerges as a critical metabolic regulator in pulmonary fibrosis. This research reveals that RIPK3 promotes PI3K‐AKT signaling in scar‐associated macrophages to fuel polyamine synthesis, independent of its kinase activity.
