Hesperetin derivative 2a inhibits lipopolysaccharide-induced acute liver injury in mice via downregulation of circDcbld2
Acute liver injury (ALI) is a complex, life-threatening inflammatory liver disease, and persistent liver damage leads to rapid decline and even failure of liver function. However, the pathogenesis of ALI is st...

Open AccessAPC mutations disrupt β-catenin destruction complex condensates organized by Axin phase separation
The Wnt/β-catenin pathway is critical to maintaining cell fate decisions. Recent study showed that liquid–liquid-phase separation (LLPS) of Axin organized the β-catenin destruction complex condensates in a nor...
