S-palmitoylation: A novel player in cancer and its emerging therapeutic implications

Cell Investigation
S-palmitoylation is a reversible post-translational lipid modification involving the covalent attachment of palmitic acid to cysteine residues, thereby regulating protein localization, stability, trafficking, and function.

Palmitoylation of PSD‐95 Orchestrates Learning‐Dependent Metaplasticity in the Amygdala and Fear Memory

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 52, 18 September 2026.
This study reveals that fear learning specifically triggers PICK1/DHHC2‐dependent palmitoylation of PSD‐95 in the lateral amygdala. Fear conditioning induces the dissociation of DHHC5 from PSD‐95 and the association of PSD‐95 with DHHC2. DHHC2‐mediated palmitoylation of PSD‐95 is required for synaptic transmission and underlies fear learning–induced ...

S-palmitoylation coordinates the trafficking of ATG9A to mediate autophagy initiation

Autophagy
Macroautophagy (hereafter autophagy), a major intracellular catabolic process, is evolutionarily conserved from yeast to mammals and is associated with a broad range of human diseases. Autophagy is morphologically characterized by the formation of double-membrane autophagosomes.

Organelle Crosstalk and Metabolic Reprogramming in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Implications

Cell Biochemistry and Function, Volume 44, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a fatal interstitial lung disease of unknown cause, marked by excessive deposition of extracellular matrix (ECM) components such as collagen. This pathological accumulation results in progressive destruction of the lung architecture and ultimately leads to respiratory failure.

The Significance of cGAS‐STING Signaling in Response to Oncogenic Viruses

Cell Biochemistry and Function, Volume 44, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT The cyclic GMP‐AMP synthase (cGAS)‐stimulator of interferon genes (STING) signaling pathway, as a key DNA sensor, plays a significant role in the regulation of innate immune responses. This pathway can be activated by sensing abnormal DNA, and is of great significance for resisting the invasion of pathogenic microorganisms and maintaining ...

Broadening horizons: Pathogenesis and therapeutics of renal ciliopathies

Journal of Cell Communication and Signaling, Volume 20, Issue 3, September 2026.
This review elucidates the molecular mechanisms and aberrant signaling pathways in renal ciliopathies, links genetic heterogeneity to clinical phenotypes, and lays a theoretical basis for prenatal diagnosis and novel therapies. Abstract Renal ciliopathies encompass a spectrum of genetic disorders arising from structural or functional impairments of ...

The role of s-palmitoylation in neurological diseases: implication for zDHHC family

Frontiers in Pharmacology
S-palmitoylation is a reversible posttranslational modification, and the palmitoylation reaction in human-derived cells is mediated by the zDHHC family, which is composed of S-acyltransferase enzymes that possess the DHHC (Asp-His-His-Cys) structural domain.

From Common Pathway to Divergent Diseases: Metabolic Aspects of Inborn Errors of CoA Biosynthesis

Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, Volume 49, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Coenzyme A (CoA) biosynthesis is a conserved, dynamically regulated pathway essential for mitochondrial energy production, fatty acid oxidation, lipid biosynthesis and protein acylation. Biallelic variants in PANK2, PPCS, PPCDC, and COASY cause rare inborn errors of CoA biosynthesis, associated with markedly different clinical phenotypes ...
