ACSL1‐Dependent Microglial Lipoimmunometabolic Reprogramming Underlies Cognitive Deficits in Alcohol Use Disorder

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 21, 13 April 2026.
This study reveals that chronic alcohol exposure selectively upregulates ACSL1 expression in prefrontal cortical microglia, driving lipid metabolism reprogramming and lipid droplet accumulation, which activates the NLRP3 inflammasome and sustains neuroinflammation. To reverse this process, a dual‐targeted lipid nanoparticle, siACSL1@LNP‐MR, is designed

Advances in the in-field detection of microorganisms in ice

, 2012
The historic view of ice-bound ecosystems has been one of a predominantly lifeless environment, where microorganisms certainly exist but are assumed to be either completely inactive or in a state of long-term dormancy.

Context‐Dependent Chemoselectivity of Aromatic C‐Methyltransferases

ChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 8, April 2026.
Chemoselectivity is context‐dependent: The SAM‐dependent C‐MTs SfmM2 and NapB5 from streptomycetes catalyze the C‐ and/or O‐dimethylation of aromatic substrates, including l‐tyrosine and flavonoids. C‐methylation activity requires precise substrate recognition and positioning to ensure proximity between the target carbon nucleophile and the methyl ...

Umbelliferone and Esculetin: Inhibitors or Substrates for Polyphenol Oxidases?

Biological and Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 2008
Recently, an interesting debate arose about the nature (substrate versus inhibitor) of esculetin, a coumarin derivative, for mushroom polyphenol oxidase (PPO). The present study examined the behavior of PPOs preparations from fungal and plant origin towards esculetin as a substrate. Both enzymes were able to oxidize esculetin though at a slow rate.

Abstract 1236: Novel androgen receptor inhibitors in triple negative breast cancer

, 2017
Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC), which lacks expression of hormone receptors and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2, has the worst prognosis of all breast cancer subtypes, due to inherent chemo-resistance and a lack of therapeutic targets.

Phase Separation of Nucleic Acids: Mechanisms, Properties, and Applications

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Volume 65, Issue 11, 9 March 2026.
Recent discoveries have shown that single‐stranded long‐chain nucleic acids can undergo temperature‐induced phase separation, enabling formation of micrometer‐sized condensates. This Minireview discusses the current mechanistic understanding of this phenomenon, highlights strategies for controlling the physical and chemical properties of these ...

Bioactive Phytochemical Compounds in Medicago sativa L. (Alfalfa): A Systematic Review of Biological Properties and Therapeutic Relevance in Nutraceutical and Functional Food Implications

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Medicago sativa L. (alfalfa) harbors a remarkably diverse reservoir of bioactive secondary metabolites. Flavonoids, isoflavones, and triterpenoid saponins dominate its bioactivity landscape, driving potent antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory, antimicrobial, estrogenic, hypolipidemic, and cytotoxic actions through redox modulation, membrane ...
