m6A demethylation of FOSL1 mRNA protects hepatoma cells against necrosis under glucose deprivation
Stress-adaptive mechanisms enabling cancer cells to survive under glucose deprivation remain elusive. N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification plays important roles in determining cancer cell fate and cellular stres...

Open AccessThrombomodulin reduces α-synuclein generation and ameliorates neuropathology in a mouse model of Parkinson’s disease
The neurotoxic α-synuclein (α-syn) oligomers play an important role in the occurrence and development of Parkinson’s disease (PD), but the factors affecting α-syn generation and neurotoxicity remain unclear. W...

Open AccessIP3R2-mediated Ca2+ release promotes LPS-induced cardiomyocyte pyroptosis via the activation of NLRP3/Caspase-1/GSDMD pathway
Pyroptosis plays a crucial role in sepsis, and the abnormal handling of myocyte calcium (Ca2+) has been associated with cardiomyocyte pyroptosis. Specifically, the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor type 2 (IP...

Open AccessTargeting the up-regulated CNOT3 reverses therapeutic resistance and metastatic progression of EGFR-mutant non-small cell lung cancer
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. CNOT3, a subunit of the CCR4-NOT complex, has recently been suggested to be overexpressed in lung cancer and involved in tumor malignancy...

RUNDC1 inhibits autolysosome formation and survival of zebrafish via clas** ATG14-STX17-SNAP29 complex
Autophagy serves as a pro-survival mechanism for a cell or a whole organism to cope with nutrient stress. Our understanding of the molecular regulation of this fusion event remains incomplete. Here, we identif...

Functional screening and rational design of compounds targeting GPR132 to treat diabetes
Chronic inflammation due to islet-residing macrophages plays key roles in the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus. By systematically profiling intra-islet lipid–transmembrane receptor signalling in islet-r...

Open AccessCuticular competing endogenous RNAs regulate insecticide penetration and resistance in a major agricultural pest
The continuously develo** pesticide resistance is a great threat to agriculture and human health. Understanding the mechanisms of insecticide resistance is a key step in dealing with the phenomenon. Insect c...

AIWW: a new nutrition-screening tool for the oncologic population
Malnutrition is a common comorbidity among patients with cancer. However, no nutrition-screening tool has been recognized in this population. A quick and easy screening tool for nutrition with high sensitivity...

Prolonged hypoxia alleviates prolyl hydroxylation-mediated suppression of RIPK1 to promote necroptosis and inflammation
The prolyl hydroxylation of hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) mediated by the EGLN–pVHL pathway represents a classic signalling mechanism that mediates cellular adaptation under hypoxia. Here we identify RI...

Open AccessMicroglial Galectin3 enhances endothelial metabolism and promotes pathological angiogenesis via Notch inhibition by competitively binding to Jag1
Microglia were considered as immune cells in inflammation until their angiogenic role was widely understood. Although the pro-inflammatory role of microglia in retinal angiogenesis has been explored, little is...

Biomarkers of aging
Aging biomarkers are a combination of biological parameters to (i) assess age-related changes, (ii) track the physiological aging process, and (iii) predict the transition into a pathological status. Although ...

Vitellogenin accumulation leads to reproductive senescence by impairing lysosomal function
The maintenance of proteostasis is essential for cellular and organism healthspan. How proteostasis collapse influences reproductive span remains largely unclear. In Caenorhabditis elegans, excess accumulation of...

Open AccessPINK1/Parkin-mediated mitophagy inhibits osteoblast apoptosis induced by advanced oxidation protein products
Osteoblast apoptosis plays an important role in age-related bone loss and osteoporosis. Our previous study revealed that advanced oxidation protein products (AOPPs) could induce nicotinamide adenine dinucleoti...

Open AccessProteomics data analysis using multiple statistical approaches identified proteins and metabolic networks associated with sucrose accumulation in sugarcane
Sugarcane is the most important sugar crop, contributing > 80% of global sugar production. High sucrose content is a key target of sugarcane breeding, yet sucrose improvement in sugarcane remains extremely slo...

Fire-prone Rhamnaceae with South African affinities in Cretaceous Myanmar amber
The rapid Cretaceous diversification of flowering plants remains Darwin’s ‘abominable mystery’ despite numerous fossil flowers discovered in recent years. Wildfires were frequent in the Cretaceous and many suc...

Open AccessPericytes augment glioblastoma cell resistance to temozolomide through CCL5-CCR5 paracrine signaling
Glioblastoma (GBM) is a prevalent and highly lethal form of glioma, with rapid tumor progression and frequent recurrence. Excessive outgrowth of pericytes in GBM governs the ecology of the perivascular niche, ...

Open AccessThe metabolite α-KG induces GSDMC-dependent pyroptosis through death receptor 6-activated caspase-8
Pyroptosis is a form of regulated cell death mediated by gasdermin family members, among which the function of GSDMC has not been clearly described. Herein, we demonstrate that the metabolite α-ketoglutarate (...

Open AccessVagus nerve stimulation optimized cardiomyocyte phenotype, sarcomere organization and energy metabolism in infarcted heart through FoxO3A-VEGF signaling
Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) restores autonomic balance, suppresses inflammation action and minimizes cardiomyocyte injury. However, little knowledge is known about the VNS’ role in cardiomyocyte phenotype, s...

Open AccessRUNX1 contributes to the mesenchymal subtype of glioblastoma in a TGFβ pathway-dependent manner
Runt-Related Transcription Factor 1 (RUNX1) is highly expressed in the Mesenchymal (Mes) subtype of glioblastoma (GBM). However, the specific molecular mechanism of RUNX1 in Mes GBM remains largely elusive. In...

Open AccessPseudogene RACGAP1P activates RACGAP1/Rho/ERK signalling axis as a competing endogenous RNA to promote hepatocellular carcinoma early recurrence
Accumulating evidence has indicated crucial roles for pseudogenes in human cancers. However, the roles played by pseudogenes in the pathogenesis of HCC, particularly HCC early recurrence, still incompletely el...
