The POLR3A/ARG2/spermine axis drives tamoxifen resistance in breast cancer

This study identifies the POLR3A/ARG2/spermine axis as a critical driver of tamoxifen resistance in ERα+ breast cancer, demonstrating that pharmacological inhibition of spermine synthesis with DFMO can re-sensitize resistant tumors to tamoxifen by restoring Caspase2-mediated apoptosis.

Evolutionary persistence governs transmitted prediction across generations in hyper-diverse genomes

By leveraging aquaculture models to decouple heritability from prediction stability, this study reveals that genomic prediction accuracy in hyper-diverse genomes is governed not by the total genetic variance explained, but by the evolutionary persistence of ancient, high-frequency variants with strong linkage disequilibrium.

Quantitative in vivo imaging of intratumorally injected 125I-labeled nanoparticles using a benchtop 2D multi-pinhole X-ray system

This study demonstrates that a benchtop 2D multi-pinhole X-ray imaging system using an energy-resolving detector can accurately quantify the intratumoral retention and biodistribution of 125I-labeled nanoparticles in mice, revealing high tumor selectivity and low off-target uptake to support preclinical optimization for nano-brachytherapy.

Serine determines tissue targeted efficacy of PKM2 modulators in atopic dermatitis

This study identifies serine demand as the critical factor governing the efficacy of PKM2 modulators, demonstrating that the novel compound SYX-PKM-A treats atopic dermatitis by activating PKM2 to restrict serine-dependent one-carbon metabolism in immune cells, thereby suppressing inflammation in high-serine-demand tissues like the skin.

Effects of Green Environment Exposure on Stress-Related Human Skin Gas Emissions

This study demonstrates that a one-hour rest in a green space significantly reduces stress-related skin gas emissions (ammonia and allyl mercaptan) while increasing plant-derived monoterpenes in healthy individuals, suggesting that green environments modulate physiological stress responses and that skin gas analysis offers a non-invasive method for assessing such effects.

Resveratrol reduces the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines and growth factors from ovarian cancer ascites-derived cells

This study demonstrates that resveratrol significantly reduces the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines and angiogenic growth factors from ovarian cancer ascites-derived cells in a dose-dependent manner without affecting cell viability, suggesting its potential as an adjuvant therapy to target inflammation and angiogenesis in ovarian cancer.
