Flecainide binding dynamics in voltage‐gated sodium channels: A comparative isoform analysis of the state‐dependent block

British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 15, Page 4145-4162, August 2026.
Background and Purpose Local anaesthetics and class I anti‐arrhythmic drugs block voltage‐gated Na+ channels, but the molecular basis for the isoform differences in drug sensitivity remains unclear. Understanding these mechanisms is essential for optimizing therapeutic efficacy and safety.

Survival Outcomes of Gemcitabine–Cisplatin–S‐1 Versus Gemcitabine–Cisplatin in Unresectable Biliary Tract Cancer: A Multicenter Retrospective Study With a Focus on Conversion Surgery

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 10, Issue 4, Page 1261-1270, July 2026.
In this multicenter retrospective study conducted by the Biliary Tract Club, we compared survival outcomes between gemcitabine–cisplatin–S‐1 (GCS) and gemcitabine–cisplatin (GC) in patients with unresectable biliary tract cancer, with a particular focus on conversion surgery. GCS was associated with longer overall and progression‐free survival compared

Quantitative Detection of Shiga Toxins Directly from Stool Specimens of Patients Associated with an Outbreak of Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli in Japan—Quantitative Shiga toxin detection from stool during EHEC outbreak

Toxins, 2015
Detection of Shiga toxins (Stx) is important for accurate diagnosis of Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli infection. In this study, we quantitatively analyzed Stx protein in nine patients’ stool during an outbreak that occurred in Japan.

Quantifying Protein–Glycan Interactions Using Native Mass Spectrometry

Mass Spectrometry Reviews, Volume 45, Issue 4, Page 800-828, July/August 2026.
ABSTRACT Interactions between glycan‐binding proteins (GBPs) and carbohydrates (glycans) are essential to many biological processes relevant to human health and disease. For most GBPs, however, their glycan interactome—the repertoire of glycans recognized and their specificities—is poorly defined.

Relationship Between PTBP1 and Pancreatic Cancer Based on microRNA and Behavior During TYMS‐Mediated Carcinogenesis

Cancer Science, Volume 117, Issue 7, Page 1828-1840, July 2026.
Corresponding Author and colleagues identify a pancreas‐enriched microRNA, miR‐216b‐5p, that suppresses PTBP1 and its downstream effector TYMS. Their findings reveal a novel miR‐216b‐5p/PTBP1/TYMS regulatory axis driving pancreatic cancer progression and establish PTBP1 as a central molecular regulator of tumor biology beyond its metabolic role ...

OMV-based vaccine formulations against Shiga toxin producing Escherichia coli strains are both protective in mice and immunogenic in calves

Human Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics, 2018
Strains of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) can cause the severe Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome (HUS). Shiga toxins are protein toxins that bind and kill microvascular cells, damaging vital organs.

Super‐Enhancer Formation in Scirrhous Gastric CAFs, and the Presence of a Stromal Field in Non‐Cancerous Tissues

Cancer Science, Volume 117, Issue 7, Page 1894-1906, July 2026.
While CAFs are produced as a result of education by cancer cells in non‐scirrhous gastric cancer, normal fibroblasts of scirrhous gastric cancer patients are already pre‐conditioned, forming a stromal field for scirrhous gastric cancer. ABSTRACT Scirrhous gastric cancer has aggressive clinical courses and is characterized by dominating cancer ...

Shiga Toxin 1a Blunts Shiga Toxin 2a-pathogenic Effects in Blood

Thrombosis and Haemostasis
ABSTRACT Once released into human blood, Shiga toxins (Stx) interact with platelets and leukocytes, stimulating them to form aggregates and to release pathogenic extracellular vesicles (EV) containing Stx. These EV are considered the trigger driving the transition from bloody diarrhea to the life-threatening hemolytic uremic syndrome (
