Citrullination of NF‐κB p65 by PAD2 as a Novel Therapeutic Target for Modulating Macrophage Polarization in Acute Lung Injury

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Peptidyl arginine deiminase 2 (PAD2) plays a key role in regulating macrophage function in Pseudomonas aeruginosa‐induced acute lung injury (ALI). Using single‐cell RNA sequencing and proteomics, a new PAD2‐catalyzed citrullination site on NF‐κB p65 (171 Arginine), modulating macrophage polarization is identified.

Role of Testosterone Signaling in Microglia: A Potential Role for Sex‐Related Differences in Alzheimer's Disease

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Testosterone enhances Aβ‐induced autophagy in microglia via the non‐genomic testosterone receptor GPRC6A, promoting Aβ clearance by suppressing ERK phosphorylation and inhibiting mTOR activation. In male 5xFAD mice, testicular removal reduces microglial autophagy and Aβ clearance, which is restored by testosterone.

An Agrin–YAP/TAZ Rigidity Sensing Module Drives EGFR‐Addicted Lung Tumorigenesis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The study identifies agrin‐EGFR mechanotransduction as a critical driver of lung adenocarcinoma which enhances EGFR signaling through an integrin‐FAK‐actomyosin dependent positive feedback on YAP/TAZ ‐TEAD in response to matrix stiffness. Targeting this oncogenic loop through combinatorial treatments inhibits lung cancer due to agrin impairment.
