Genetic attenuation of ALDH1A1 increases metastatic potential and aggressiveness in colorectal cancer

Molecular Oncology, Volume 20, Issue 6, Page 1556-1590, June 2026.
Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1A1 (ALDH1A1) is a cancer stem cell marker in several malignancies. We established a novel epithelial cell line from rectal adenocarcinoma with unique overexpression of this enzyme. Genetic attenuation of ALDH1A1 led to increased invasive capacity and metastatic potential, the inhibition of proliferation activity, and ultimately ...

[Research Progress and Applications of ZDHHC-mediated Protein Palmitoylation 
in the Development and Immune Escape of Non-small Cell Lung Cancer].

Zhongguo fei ai za zhi = Chinese journal of lung cancer
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), a leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide, remains a significant clinical challenge despite advances in immune checkpoint inhibitors therapy, with drug resistance persisting as a major obstacle. Palmitoylation, a critical post-translational modification (PTM) primarily catalyzed by palmitoyltransferases of ...

Pathophysiology and Molecular Signalling in Osteoporosis: Linking Risk Factors to Bone Loss

Journal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Volume 30, Issue 9, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Osteoporosis is a prevalent skeletal disorder characterised by progressive reduction in bone mass, microarchitectural deterioration, and increased fracture susceptibility. In India, approximately one‐third of the elderly population is affected by bone‐related disorders, and the global burden of osteoporosis continues to rise.

Palmitoylation‐Mediated Ubiquitination of SRPK1 Regulates Ferroptosis in High‐Fat‐Induced Erectile Dysfunction

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 19, 2 April 2026.
Elevated exogenous palmitic acid promotes the S‐palmitoylation of SRPK1 in endothelial cells, a dynamic process governed by ZDHHC24 and APT1. This post‐translational modification strengthens the interaction between SRPK1 and the E3 ubiquitin ligase MIB1, thereby facilitating the proteasomal degradation of SRPK1.

Post‐Translational Regulation of CD8+ T Cell Fate and Dysfunction in Tumor Immunity

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 21, 13 April 2026.
This review delineates how post‐translational modifications (PTMs) function as a central regulatory interface governing CD8+ T cell activation, differentiation, persistence, and exhaustion in antitumor immunity. By integrating antigenic, metabolic, and microenvironmental cues, diverse PTM programs coordinate transcriptional and chromatin states that ...

Zebrafish ZDHHC11 palmitoylates STING to potentiate antiviral immune response

Cell Communication and Signaling
In mammals, the activation of stimulator of interferon gene (STING), a pivotal adaptor protein mediating type I interferon (IFN-I) induction upon DNA virus infection, is regulated by palmitoylation.

Defective anterograde protein-trafficking contributes to endoplasmic reticulum-stress in a CLN1 disease model

Neurobiology of Disease
Lysosomal storage disorders (LSDs) represent 70 inherited metabolic diseases, in most of which neurodegeneration is a devastating manifestation. The CLN1 disease is a fatal neurodegenerative LSD, caused by inactivating mutations in the CLN1 gene encoding

DNA Methylation‐Regulated ZDHHC24 Exacerbates the Risk of Intracranial Aneurysms

Brain and Behavior, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
Multimodal Mendelian randomization integrating multi‐omics datasets pinpointed four DNA‐methylation loci that act in concert with the palmitoylation gene ZDHHC24 to modulate intracranial aneurysm risk, shedding new light on the molecular etiology of IA susceptibility and highlighting potential therapeutic targets.

Pharmacological Inhibition of APT2 by Solasonine Promotes Ferroptosis Through Palmitoylation Modulation in Gallbladder Cancer

Phytotherapy Research, Volume 40, Issue 4, Page 1642-1660, April 2026.
Schematic illustration of SS‐induced ferroptosis through targeting APT2‐mediated STAT3 palmitoylation in GBC cells. ABSTRACT Gallbladder cancer (GBC), the most prevalent and lethal biliary tract malignancy, lacks effective therapeutic strategies. Solasonine (SS), a bioactive steroidal alkaloid derived from Solanum nigrum L, exhibits antitumor activity ...

Toward the identification of ZDHHC enzymes required for palmitoylation of viral protein as potential drug targets

Expert Opinion on Drug Discovery, 2019
Introduction: S-acylation is the attachment of fatty acids not only to cysteines of cellular, but also of viral proteins. The modification is often crucial for the protein´s function and hence for virus replication. Transfer of fatty acids is mediated by one or several of the 23 members of the ZDHHC family of proteins.
