Cancer IDO1‐Mediated Tryptophan–Kynurenine Metabolic Reprogramming to Drive Skeletal Muscle Atrophy and Cachexia Acceleration

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 17, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Cancer cachexia is a debilitating syndrome characterized by severe skeletal muscle wasting, which significantly impairs patient quality of life and survival. Indoleamine 2,3‐dioxygenase 1 (IDO1), a key enzyme in tryptophan (Trp) metabolism, is often upregulated in cancers, but its specific role in driving lung cancer–associated ...

Targeting Middle East Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus Spike Fusion Machinery With Antiviral Peptides: In Silico Exploration of the Heptad Repeat 2 Domain

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, June 2026.
Griffithsin, Brevinin‐2, and CCL20 were identified as potent MERS‐CoV fusion inhibitor candidates targeting the HR2 domain through integrated molecular docking, MD simulations, and MM/PBSA analyses. These peptides demonstrated superior binding stability and favorable safety profiles compared to the standard inhibitor, supporting their potential as ...

Genome‐Wide In Silico Analysis of the Type VI Secretion System (T6SS) Within the Morganella Genus

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, June 2026.
▪ Species‐specific T6SS patterns among Morganella genus (M. morganii and M. sibonii). ▪ Only one‐third of M. morganii isolates haboured a T6SS. ▪ All M. sibonii possess four T6SS clusters. ▪ M. sibonii exhibited a wide diversity of effectors compared to M. morganii.

Investigating the role of a conserved hydrophobic pocket of gp41 in the anti‐HIV activity of fusion inhibitors

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Membrane fusion between HIV and host cells requires interaction between the N‐terminal and C‐terminal repeat regions (NHR and CHR) of the gp41 envelope subunit. A deep hydrophobic pocket (HP) on the surface of NHR is considered crucial in this interaction.

Safe and Localized Lentiviral Gene Delivery via Injectable Mesoporous Scaffolds for Potent Antitumor Immunity

Advanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 25, 4 May 2026.
This work introduces an injectable mesoporous silica rod scaffold that confines lentiviral vectors to the injection site, enabling localized dendritic cell recruitment and transduction. The platform sustains antigen expression, promotes robust T‐cell activation, and enhances antitumor immunity.
