Single‐Cell RNA Sequencing Delineates Renal Anti‐Fibrotic Mechanisms Mediated by TRPC6 Inhibition

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Single‐cell transcriptomics reveals how TRPC6 inhibition alters renal cell composition and gene expression in CKD. The study uncovers a novel endothelial subpopulation (ECRIN), highlights key inflammatory and fibrotic pathways, and identifies a Prnp‐driven network linked to fibrosis resolution, offering mechanistic insight into TRPC6 as a potential ...

Inhibition of mitochondrial folate metabolism drives differentiation through mTORC1 mediated purine sensing

Nature Communications
Supporting cell proliferation through nucleotide biosynthesis is an essential requirement for cancer cells. Hence, inhibition of folate-mediated one carbon (1C) metabolism, which is required for nucleotide synthesis, has been successfully exploited in ...

Plasmodium Purine Metabolism and Its Inhibition by Nucleoside and Nucleotide Analogues.

Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, 2019
Malaria still affects around 200 million people and is responsible for more than 400,000 deaths per year, mostly children in subequatorial areas. This disease is caused by parasites of the Plasmodium genus.

STAT6 Activation Exacerbates Ferroptosis in Airway Epithelium by Inhibiting PRKN‐Mediated Mitophagy in Pulmonary Fibrosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study uncovers STAT6‐driven pulmonary fibrosis (PF) via suppression of PRKN‐mediated airway epithelial mitophagy, triggering mitochondrial dysfunction and ferroptosis. Rifabutin is identified as a potent STAT6 inhibitor that effectively reverses fibrotic progression. These findings reveal the STAT6‐PRKN axis as a pathogenic regulator and provide a

Investigations into the characterization, degradation, and applications of biodegradable polymers by mass spectrometry

Mass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Biodegradable polymers have been getting more and more attention because of their contribution to the plastic pollution environmental issues and to move towards a circular economy. Nevertheless, biodegradable materials still exhibit various disadvantages restraining a widespread use in the market.

FLASH Irradiation Modulates Immune Responses and Accelerates Lung Recovery: A Single‐Cell Perspective

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Single‐cell RNA sequencing reveals distinct immune responses to FLASH versus conventional dose rate irradiation in early radiation‐induced lung injury. FLASH irradiation reduces Ccrl2⁺ neutrophil infiltration, activates CD4⁺ CD40L⁺ Th cells, restrains pro‐inflammatory Mefv⁺ monocytes, and enhances epithelial repair via TGF‐β signaling, underscoring its

Fusobacterium nucleatum-triggered purine metabolic reprogramming drives tumorigenesis in head and neck carcinoma

Discover Oncology, 2023
Background Fusobacterium nucleatum (F. nucleatum) is a vital pro-oncogenic bacterium. Our previous study revealed that a high abundance of F. nucleatum in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is correlated with poor patient prognosis.

Purine metabolism in sprint- vs endurance-trained athletes aged 20‒90 years

Scientific Reports, 2019
Purine metabolism is crucial for efficient ATP resynthesis during exercise. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of lifelong exercise training on blood purine metabolites in ageing humans at rest and after exhausting exercise.

TBC1D22B Regulates ER‐to‐Golgi Trafficking via RAB1B Inactivation and Promotes Oncogenic Programs in Breast Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
TBC1D22B, a Golgi‐localized RabGAP linked to poor prognosis in breast cancer, inhibits ER‐to‐Golgi transport via RAB1B inactivation. This disrupts secretion, drives oncogenic transcriptional reprogramming, and promotes tumor growth. These findings indicate that TBC1D22B connects membrane trafficking to transcriptional control and cancer progression ...

NEK6 dampens FOXO3 nuclear translocation to stabilize C-MYC and promotes subsequent de novo purine synthesis to support ovarian cancer chemoresistance

Cell Death and Disease
De novo purine synthesis metabolism plays a crucial role in tumor cell survival and malignant progression. However, the specific impact of this metabolic pathway on chemoresistance in ovarian cancer remains unclear.
