YTHDC1 functions as a molecular chaperone to suppress ALS-linked hnRNPA1 mutants from aggregation

Nature Communications
Proteostasis failure drives multiple neurodegenerative disorders (NDs), and ATP-independent chaperone pathways that support neuronal proteostasis remain poorly defined.

The RNA Chaperone Hfq Is Involved in Stress Tolerance and Virulence in Uropathogenic Proteus mirabilis

PLoS ONE, 2014
Hfq is a bacterial RNA chaperone involved in the riboregulation of diverse genes via small noncoding RNAs. Here, we show that Hfq is critical for the uropathogenic Proteus mirabilis to effectively colonize the bladder and kidneys in a murine urinary ...

Tau Aggregate Imaging and Transcriptomics of Alzheimer's Disease Brain at Different Stages of Disease

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The protein aggregates and gene expression in the middle temporal gyrus (MTG) and somatosensory cortex (SOM) of the postmortem brains of 13 Alzheimer's disease patients were studied in detail, revealing that small hyperphosphorylated tau aggregates increase with Braak stage driven by microglial inflammation.

Targeting the CRYAB/β‐Catenin Axis with an MMP‐9‐Responsive Hydrogel Disrupts CTC Clusters to Suppress Progression of Hepatocellular Carcinoma after Radiofrequency Ablation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract illustrates that sublethal thermal stress after iRFA upregulates the chaperone CRYAB in residual HCC cells, which stabilizes β‐catenin and drives a dual pathological program, including EMT and N2‐TAN polarization, thereby leading to heterotypic CTC cluster formation. The MMP‐9‐responsive hydrogel (XB@Gel) delivers XAV‐939 and BMS‐

Mitochondrial stress in advanced fibrosis and cirrhosis associated with chronic hepatitis B, chronic hepatitis C, or nonalcoholic steatohepatitis

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Adaptive mitochondrial mechanisms allow mitochondrial resilience and prevent the worsening of fibrosis, while deregulation of these mechanisms promotes the progression from no/minimal‐mild (F0‐F2) fibrosis to advanced fibrosis and cirrhosis (F3‐F4). Abstract Background and Aims Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection causes oxidative stress (OS) and alters ...

RNA compaction and iterative scanning for small RNA targets by the Hfq chaperone

Nature Communications
RNA-guided enzymes must quickly search a vast sequence space for their targets. This search is aided by chaperones such as Hfq, a protein that mediates regulation by bacterial small RNAs (sRNAs).

Hierarchical Flux‐Protection Engineering Stabilizes Oxidation‐Prone Metabolic Nodes for High‐Level Curcumin Biosynthesis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Flux‐protection engineering stabilizes an oxidation‐prone L‐DOPA node in engineered E. coli by combining acid‐adapted chassis evolution, respiratory‐chain modulation, enzyme‐level flux matching, and pH–DO control. Carbon is redirected from oxidative browning to productive biosynthesis, enabling 1075.2 mg/L curcumin and demonstrating transferability to ...

Glucocorticoid Receptor Signaling in Myeloid Cells Orchestrates Inflammation Resolution and Muscle Repair

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Glucocorticoids (GC) are widely used to reduce inflammation. We show that the glucocorticoid receptor in myeloid cells regulates macrophage cell cycle and genome integrity during muscle regeneration. We demonstrate that dexamethasone administration during the early inflammatory phase delays muscle repair by increasing macrophage proliferation ...

FTSJ3‐Mediated 2′‐O‐Methylation of HSPA5 mRNA Stabilizes BOP1 via SUMOylation to Drive DRP1‐Dependent Mitochondrial Fission and Fatty Acid Oxidation in Lung Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The RNA methyltransferase FTSJ3 drives lung squamous cell carcinoma progression by catalyzing 2′‐O‐methylation of HSPA5 mRNA, which stabilizes BOP1 through SUMOylation and activates DRP1/SREBP1‐mediated mitochondrial fission and fatty acid oxidation. Targeting this axis with liposomal siRNA potently suppresses tumor growth and metastasis ABSTRACT Lung ...
