Regulation of Lipid Dysmetabolism and Neuroinflammation Progression Linked With Alzheimer's Disease Through Modulation of Dgat2

open access: yesAging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 3, March 2026.
Drosophila and mouse models of Alzheimer's disease exhibit lipid accumulation and neuroinflammation, leading to progressive impairments in memory, locomotion, sleep, circadian rhythms, and synaptic integrity. Knockdown of Dgat2 reduces lipid accumulation and neuroinflammatory signaling, rescuing these deficits and highlighting a conserved, crossspecies

Synthetic Biology and Metabolic Engineering of Microalgae for Sustainable Lipid and Terpenoid Production: An Updated Perspective

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 1359-1376, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Microalgae are increasingly recognised as powerful platforms for the sustainable production of lipids and terpenoids, with expanding applications in the food, fuel and biomanufacturing industries. In this updated review, we consolidate and critically assess the most recent advances in synthetic biology and metabolic engineering of key ...

Sphingolipid desaturase DEGS1 is essential for mitochondria-associated membrane integrity

open access: yesThe Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2023
Sphingolipids function as membrane constituents and signaling molecules, with crucial roles in human diseases, from neurodevelopmental disorders to cancer, best exemplified in the inborn errors of sphingolipid metabolism in lysosomes. The dihydroceramide

Plant Lipid Droplets and Derived Lipidic Nano‐Assemblies: Structure, Biogenesis and Pharmaceutical Applications

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 1322-1343, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Lipid droplets (LDs) serve as the primary storage site for neutral lipids in plant cells, with growing evidence supporting many additional biological roles, such as in lipid homeostasis, signalling, trafficking, inflammatory responses and inter‐organelle communication.

Molecular insights into volatile organic compound sensing and signaling in plants

open access: yesThe Plant Journal, Volume 125, Issue 6, March 2026.
SUMMARY Plants interact with their surrounding environment through the perception of a vast and structurally diverse array of volatile organic compounds (VOCs); however, the molecular mechanisms involved remain mostly unknown. Despite the large number of VOCs emitted and perceived by plants, only a small number of phylogenetically distinct, but often ...

Fibroblast growth factor receptor signaling modulates cholesterol storage in a SOAT1-dependent manner to promote mammary tumor cell invasion

open access: yesBreast Cancer Research
Signaling by fibroblast growth factor receptors (FGFRs) is active in up to 85% of breast cancers and results in enhanced proliferation, migration, and invasion of tumor cells.

Disruption of Hepatic Insulin Signaling Causes Phospholipid Dysregulation in Mice

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 4, 28 February 2026.
Pan et al. demonstrate that disruption of hepatic insulin signaling by insulin receptor (IR) substrate (IRS1/2) deletion led to impaired PI3K‐AKT signaling, causing increased Foxo1 activation and TGF‐β1 expression, which dysregulated the expression of the key enzymes involving phospholipid biosynthesis and remodeling.

An omics-based characterization of Wolfiporia cocos reveals three CYP450 members involved in the biosynthetic pathway of pachymic acid

open access: yesCommunications Biology
Wolfiporia cocos is a medicinal mushroom used in China. It biosynthesizes pachymic acid (PA), a main therapeutic triterpene associated with therapies. Nowadays, the unknown PA biosynthesis leads to difficulties in increasing its content in W.

Cholesterol-binding motifs in STING that control endoplasmic reticulum retention mediate anti-tumoral activity of cholesterol-lowering compounds

open access: yesNature Communications
The cGAS-STING pathway plays a crucial role in anti-tumoral responses by activating inflammation and reprogramming the tumour microenvironment. Upon activation, STING traffics from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to Golgi, allowing signalling complex ...

Increased SOAT2 expression in aged regulatory T cells is associated with altered cholesterol metabolism and reduced anti-tumor immunity

open access: yesNature Communications
Immune functions decline with aging, leading to increased susceptibility to various diseases including tumors. Exploring aging-related molecular targets in elderly patients with cancer is thus highly sought after.
