Advances in Engineered Extracellular Vesicles for the Treatment of Atherosclerosis and Atherothrombosis – Next‐Generation Cardiovascular Nanomedicine

Small Structures, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2026.
Exosomes (small extracellular vesicles) are nanosized vesicles produced naturally by living cells. They can be engineered by various techniques to deliver biologically active molecules to injury sites in atherosclerosis and atherothrombosis. Therefore, an exosome‐based multifunctional nanomedicine for the diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment of these ...

Ubiquitin‐like SUMO protease expansion in rice (Oryza sativa L.)

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract SUMOylation is a protein post‐translational modification that is essential for plant growth and response to changing environments. However, past work in this area has mainly focused on simple sequence similarity methods for discovering SUMOylation genes, often using orthologue mapping from yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) or Arabidopsis ...

Hypomethylating agents in vacuoles, E1 enzyme, X‐linked, autoinflammatory, somatic syndrome (VEXAS): A systematic review

British Journal of Haematology, Volume 208, Issue 3, Page 819-828, March 2026.
Summary VEXAS syndrome (vacuoles, E1 enzyme, X‐linked, autoinflammatory, somatic) is an X‐linked, systemic, haemato‐inflammatory syndrome caused by somatic mutations in the UBA1 gene. No standardized treatment guidelines exist, but evidence is emerging that treatment with hypomethylating agents (HMAs) can induce improvement of the inflammatory symptoms,

Cas9 beyond CRISPR – SUMOylation, effector‐like potential and pathogenic adaptation

The FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 5, Page 1285-1296, March 2026.
This Viewpoint explores the possibility that Cas9, beyond its canonical role in CRISPR immunity, may act as a host‐modulating effector during infection by Cas9‐encoding bacteria. Such a nucleomodulin‐like function could be influenced by eukaryotic post‐translational modifications, particularly SUMOylation, with potential implications for host–pathogen ...

ODC1 Polyamine Metabolism Drives Prostate Cancer via AKT and Splicing

Journal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Volume 30, Issue 5, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Prostate cancer is an aggressive disease with limited quantifiable biomarkers. One gene of interest is ODC1, which encodes ornithine decarboxylase, the rate‐limiting enzyme converting ornithine to putrescine in polyamine metabolism. Although ODC1 is known to be involved in prostate cancer development, exactly how it drives the disease ...

Constitutive nitric oxide synthases deficiency impairs cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer repair following solar UV exposure in cells and mice

Photochemistry and Photobiology, Volume 102, Issue 2, Page 315-327, March/April 2026.
Proposed model for the dual role of cNOS in DNA damage and repair upon UV radiation. Abstract Solar ultraviolet (sUV) radiation is a major environmental factor that induces DNA damage, promoting skin aging and carcinogenesis. The formation of cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs) is one of the most prevalent forms of UV‐induced DNA lesions, playing a ...

Ustilago hordei Delivers Heterologous Fungal Effectors for Screening and Characterisation in Wheat

Plant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 2, March–April 2026.
Ustilago hordei, a barley pathogen, has been engineered to deliver effectors of fungal pathogens in wheat. Necrosis‐inducing activities of Parastagonospora nodorum effectors SnTOX1 and SnTOX3 can effectively be screened for. Challenges occur when stem rust fungus avirulence effectors are tested in this secretion system.

Role of Septin7 in mitochondrial dynamics and oxidative metabolism in C2C12 skeletal muscle cells

The Journal of Physiology, Volume 604, Issue 5, Page 1971-1994, 1 March 2026.
Abstract figure legend Knockdown of Septin7 alters the expression of markers responsible for mitochondrial dynamics. Members of the electron transport chain are also affected by diminished Septin7 level resulting in functional changes of mitochondrial respiration. Abstract Mitochondria are dynamic organelles that undergo fusion and fission.
