Mass Spectrometry Insights Into Post‐Translational Modifications in Extracellular Vesicles
ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are membrane‐enclosed structures secreted by virtually all living cells, serving as essential mediators of intercellular communication in both physiological and pathological processes. There is growing interest in their potential applications as biomarkers, therapeutic targets, and drug delivery systems, which ...

Plasmepsins as Antimalarial Drug Targets—Then, Now, and the Future
ABSTRACT Malaria is a devastating disease caused by Plasmodium parasites. Plasmodium parasites express ten cathepsin D‐like aspartyl proteases, called plasmepsins (PMs). These PMs have diverse roles fulfill diverse functions throughout the parasite's lifecycle, though several exhibit functional redundancies. Among them, PMV, PMIV, and PMX are essential

Circadian rhythms and chronotherapy in Alzheimer's disease: Mechanisms and therapeutic implications
Circadian dysregulation contributes to Alzheimer's disease through sleep disruption, clock‐gene dysfunction, neuroinflammation, impaired proteostasis, and metabolic imbalance. These alterations promote cognitive decline and disease progression, while circadian biomarkers and chronotherapeutic interventions offer opportunities for precision diagnosis ...
