Targeting Genome Maintenance Defects of Cancers Using Chain‐Terminating Nucleoside Analogs

Cancer Science, EarlyView.
Nucleoside analogs interfere with DNA replication either by their chain‐terminating properties or by serving as DNA damage on the template. The genome maintenance pathways required to maintain cellular tolerance to each nucleoside analog vary depending on the drug.

Crigler Najjar Syndrome Type 2 (CNS Type 2): An Unwonted Cause of Jaundice in Adults [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2017
Crigler Najjar Syndrome (CNS) Type 2 is an uncommon genetic disorder characterised by non-haemolytic unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia. It is caused by mutations in the UGT1A1 gene which codes for the enzyme uridine diphosphate glucoronosyl transferase- 1,

Olig2‐specific loss‐of‐function Slc35a2 results in hypomyelination and spontaneous seizures

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Malformations of cortical development represent major causes of drug‐resistant epilepsy, with mild malformation of cortical development with oligodendroglial hyperplasia and epilepsy recognized as a distinct pathological entity. Pathogenic X‐linked SLC35A2, encoding the uridine diphosphate–galactose transporter, has been implicated ...

Structural analysis of the NifL‐NifA complex reveals the molecular basis of anti‐activation of nitrogen fixation gene expression in Azotobacter vinelandii

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Using cryo‐EM combined with biochemical and genetic approaches, we mapped the interaction surface between NifL and NifA to gain insights into the regulation of nitrogen fixation genes in A. vinelandii. Our findings suggest that NifL, a homolog of histidine kinases lacking phosphorylation activity, evolved to act as a steric block of NifA activity ...

Inflammatory niches as spatial drivers of disease mechanisms and targets for personalized treatment

Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, EarlyView.
This study provides a comprehensive review of how spatial transcriptomics reveals disease‐specific inflammatory niches across multiple skin disorders, highlighting key immune–stromal, neuro–immune and metabolic interactions that were previously unappreciated in non‐spatial analyses. Abstract Disease states are increasingly recognized as being shaped by

Mechanistic studies of uridine diphosphate glucuronosyltransferase

Chemico-Biological Interactions, 1994
Bisubstrate reaction kinetics and product inhibition studies were used to characterize the kinetic mechanism of a partially purified uridine diphosphate glucuronosyltransferase (UDPGT). These studies indicate that the reaction most likely occurs via a random order sequential mechanism.

Engineering the bacterial nutrition strategy to control plant diseases

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This commentary on Wang et al. (2025) and Phan et al. (2025) highlights previously undiscovered Xanthomonas pathways for nutrition acquisition, explains how Xanthomonas bacteria hijack host molecular machinery through their effector proteins, and discusses how these studies can be used to develop new disease resistance mechanisms.

Increased sugar content impairs pollen fertility and reduces seed-setting in high-photosynthetic-efficiency rice

Crop Journal
Crop yield depends on biomass, which is primarily associated with photosynthesis. We previously demonstrated that two photorespiratory bypasses, i.e., GOC (glycolate oxidase + oxalate oxidase + catalase) and GCGT (glycolate oxidase + catalase ...

Engineering of the Flavone Rutinoside Biosynthetic Pathway Enables Production of Diosmin, a Venoactive Compound in Solanum lycopersicum and Nicotiana tabacum

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Diosmin is often used as a dietary supplement, and it is sometimes used to make phlebotropic drugs for venous diseases. Traditionally, diosmin is obtained by the dehydrogenation of the flavanone glycoside hesperidin through chemical semisynthesis.

In Vitro Metabolism and Analytical Characterization of SLU‐PP‐332 and SLU‐PP‐915: Novel Pan‐ERR Agonists With Doping Potential

Rapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, Volume 40, Issue 8, 30 April 2026.
ABSTRACT Rationale Estrogen‐related receptor (ERR) agonists such as the drug candidates SLU‐PP‐332 and SLU‐PP‐915 are currently being investigated as exercise mimetics, given their ability to trigger human physiological processes similar to those initiated by actual physical activity.
