PHGDH‐Mediated Serine Metabolism in Nucleus Pulposus Cells Is a Potential Therapeutic Target for Intervertebral Disc Degeneration

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
When nucleus pulposus cells senesce, PHGDH decreases, reducing serine synthesis and glutathione, impairing antioxidant capacity. The intermediate α‐KG also drops, lowering JMJD3 demethylase activity, increasing H3K27me3 at the Rap1b promoter, and reducing Rap1b expression, whose down‐regulation in turn activates mTORC1 and suppresses autophagy ...

Mac‐2 Binding Protein Glycosylation Isomer (M2BPGi)–Based Risk Stratification Refined by Tumor Metabolic Activity in Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
M2BPGi reflects background liver fibrosis and hepatic functional impairment. PET SUVmax reflects tumor metabolic aggressiveness. Their combination identifies a dual‐high subgroup with the poorest recurrence‐free and overall survival. ABSTRACT Aim To evaluate the prognostic significance of preoperative Mac‐2 binding protein glycosylation isomer (M2BPGi)

Noncanonical Peloruside A Biosynthesis by an Uncultivated Verrucomicrobiota Symbiont

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Noncanonical biochemistry of the peloruside PKS characterized in this work, comprising double bond generation by a noncanonical tridomain (blue), acetyl‐CoA recycling (orange), and proofreading systems (purple and yellow). The Z‐double bond is installed by TEB1 through O‐acetylation and acetate elimination. The acyl ligase PelB (AL, orange) selectively

Microbial‐Metabolite Signatures Are Associated With Glucocorticoid Responsiveness in Chronic Rhinosinusitis With Nasal Polyps

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) exhibit heterogeneous responses to oral glucocorticoids (GCs), but the biological basis of this variability remains unclear. Objective To identify gut microbiome‒plasma metabolomic signatures associated with GC responsiveness in CRSwNP patients and to compare their ...

An IscS Persulfide Donates the Sulfur for Ribosomal Protein uL16 Thioamidation

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
YcaO‐catalyzed thioamidation of the ribosomal subunit protein uL16 is widespread in Pseudomonadota bacteria. We identify the iron–sulfur cluster cysteine desulfurase IscS as the sulfur donor via an IscS persulfide and observe direct IscS–uL16 interactions.

Characterization of a Fungal Modular Polyketide Synthase System Reveals an Unusual Strategy for Polyketide Chain Initiation

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Fungal modular polyketide synthases (PKSs) remain largely unexplored. Functional characterization of the LasC/LasD assembly line established its role in strasseriolide C biosynthesis and suggested an unexpected strategy for chain initiation, in which a malonyl unit is transferred from the module 2 acyl carrier protein (ACP) domains to the loading ACP ...

Sequential Design of Activatable Photosensitizers for Ablation of Glioma Cells in Brain Cancer Tissues

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Gal‐SeNBD‐oleamide is an activatable photosensitizer (PS) with efficient uptake and selective, β‐galactosidase‐triggered activation in cancer cells, enabling efficient photodynamic ablation of glioma cells directly in brain tissue slices from mouse preclinical models and human glioblastoma patients.
