Alkyltriphenylphosphonium Binding to Cardiolipin Triggers Oncosis in Cancer Cells
Alkyltriphenylphosphonium, exemplified by TPP+‐C14, preferentially accumulates in mitochondria and selectively binds to cardiolipin, a key phospholipid of the inner mitochondrial membrane, causing loss of mitochondrial membrane potential, severe cellular ATP depletion, and calcium imbalance.

Summary: Despite the consensus that accumulation of unfolded proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) lumen, i.e. ER stress, activates the unfolded protein response (UPR), studies under physiological and pathophysiological conditions suggest that ER ...

Estrogen therapy induces an unfolded protein response to drive cell death in ER+ breast cancer
Estrogens have been shown to elicit anticancer effects against estrogen receptor α (ER)‐positive breast cancer. We sought to determine the mechanism underlying the therapeutic response.

Aged HSF1 muscle‐specific knockout mice show deteriorated muscle atrophy and metabolic dysfunction, while active HSF1 overexpression improves muscle function via activating SIRT3 to deacetylate both PGC1α1 and PGC1α4, which boosts mitochondrial function and muscle hypertrophy in a fiber‐type specific manner, and induces FNDC5/Irisin for tissue ...

Size‐Dependent Ultrasound Activation of Thrombin Catalytic Activity by Mechano‐Nanoswitches
The fundamental principles linking nanoparticle (NP) physicochemical properties to their interactions with sonomechanical forces are not well‐defined. This work systematically investigates the size‐dependent ultrasound activation of thrombin using different‐sized mechano‐nanoswitches, which provides critical insights into the role of NP size in nano ...

E-cigarette aerosols induce unfolded protein response in normal human oral keratinocytes. [PDF]
Objective: Since the introduction in 2004, global usage of e-cigarettes (ECs) has risen exponentially. However, the risks of ECs on oral health are uncertain.

Astrocytic PERK Deficiency Drives Prefrontal Circuit Dysfunction and Depressive‐Like Behaviors
Chen et al. show that the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress sensor PERK is downregulated in prefrontal cortex (PFC) astrocytes in major depressive disorder and in chronic‐stress mouse models. In young mice, astrocyte‐specific PERK loss reduces the synaptogenic cue thrombospondin‐1 (TSP1), leading to synaptic and circuit deficits and depressive‐like ...
