Impairment of Intermediate Filament Expression Reveals Impact on Cell Functions Independent from Keratinocyte Transformation

Cells
Although cytoplasmic intermediate filaments (cIFs) are essential for cell physiology, the molecular and cell functional consequences of cIF disturbances are poorly understood.

Multimodal AI‐Driven Identification of Dehydrocostus Lactone as a Potent Renal Fibrosis Attenuator Targeting IQGAP1

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Renal fibrosis, a hallmark of CKD, lacks effective treatments. Herein, we developed a multimodal AI model (TCM‐SPred) to identify anti‐fibrotic agents and found that dehydrocostus lactone (DCL) targets IQGAP1 to inhibit Wnt signaling, blocking the interaction between IQGAP1 and CCT3, demonstrating potent anti‐fibrotic activity in vitro and in vivo ...

The Sonic Hedgehog Pathway Stimulates Prostate Tumor Growth by Paracrine Signaling and Recaptures Embryonic Gene Expression in Tumor Myofibroblasts [PDF]

, 2009
The Hedgehog (Hh) pathway contributes to prostate cancer growth and progression. The presence of robust Shh expression in both normal prostate and localized cancer challenged us to explain the unique growth promoting effect in cancer.

Astrocytic TIA1‐Mediated Stress Granules Promote the Demyelination of Optic Neuritis by Sequestering mRNA of Cholesterol Synthesis Genes in an Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis Model

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Astrocytic TIA1‐mediated stress granules (SGs) promote demyelination by sequestering the mRNA of cholesterol synthesis genes. In this model, astrocytic TIA1‐mediated SGs were increased in the optic nerves of EAE mice, leading to the downregulation of cholesterol synthesis genes such as HMGCS1 through sequestration of their mRNA into SGs, which ...

Targeted Degradation of eEF2K by a Structure‐Guided PROTAC Strategy for the Treatment of Triple‐Negative Breast Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study developed an eEF2K‐targeting PROTAC, A6, that efficiently degrades eEF2K in TNBC cells, inhibiting tumor growth in vitro and in vivo. To enhance tumor‐specific delivery, we engineered A6@ZIF‐8, a pH‐sensitive nanocarrier, which improved drug accumulation at tumor sites, offering a promising therapeutic strategy for TNBC through targeted ...

TRIM40 Drives Pathological Cardiac Hypertrophy and Heart Failure via Ubiquitination of PKN2

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies the E3 ligase TRIM40 as a key driver of pathological cardiac hypertrophy. TRIM40 binds PKN2 via its B‐box domain and, through its C29‐dependent catalytic activity, mediates K63‐linked ubiquitination of PKN2. This modification enhances PKN2 phosphorylation at Ser815, thereby driving hypertrophy.

Promoter Hypermethylation‐Induced Silencing of FXYD1 Drives Breast Cancer Metastasis via DDX5‐Mediated Wnt/β‐Catenin Pathway Activation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies FXYD1 as an epigenetically silenced tumor suppressor in breast cancer. DNA methylation turns off the gene FXYD1 in breast cancer, and low levels predict worse outcomes. Restoring FXYD1 limits breast cancer cells proliferation and metastasis. In the nucleus, FXYD1 recruits the E3 ligase MAEA to K63‐ubiquitinate DDX5 for proteasomal

Wash‐Free Multi‐Target Super‐Resolution Microscopy With Photocaged DNA Labels

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Photocaged DNA labels enable wash‐free multi‐target super‐resolution microscopy. A single type of DNA–fluorophore imager strand hybridizes to two orthogonal light‐responsive docking strands, whose hybridization state can be modulated with light from “ON” to “OFF” and vice versa.
