ACSL4-mediated H3K9 and H3K27 hyperacetylation upregulates SNAIL to drive TNBC metastasis.

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) has profound unmet medical need globally for its devastating clinical outcome associated with rapid metastasis and lack of targeted therapies. Recently, lipid metabolic reprogramming especially fatty acid oxidation (FAO) has emerged as a major driver of breast cancer metastasis. Analyzing the expression of major FAO regulatory genes in breast cancer, we found selective overexpression of acyl-CoA synthetase 4 (ACSL4) in TNBC, which is primarily attributed to the absence of progesterone receptor.

Identification of pathogenicity determinants in ToLCNDV and their RNAi-based knockdown for disease management in and tomato plants.

(tomato leaf curl New Delhi virus, ToLCNDV), is member of the genus , family , is a prolific bipartite whitefly transmitted begomovirus in the Indian sub-continent has a wide host range, including solanaceous, cucurbitaceous and other plants. Recently, dsRNA-mediated non-transgenic approaches have been promising in managing plant viruses. Such an approach could be effective if the pathogenicity determinants of a virus are targeted.

Recent advances in platelet-rich plasma and its derivatives: therapeutic agents for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.

Platelet rich plasma (PRP) is a suspension of bioactive factors and chemokine enriched plasma. Platelets are a distinctive source of membrane bound and soluble proteins that are released upon their activation. The higher count of platelets renders PRP with an array of tissue regenerative abilities.

Morphology Transition of Tripeptides from Porous Spherical to Rod-like Nanostructures for Small-Molecule Adsorption.

Peptides possess a remarkable propensity to adopt distinct morphologies, ranging from simple aggregates to complex structures such as fibrils and nanotubes. Morphology transformation in peptides is intricately linked to the physicochemical properties of peptides and external factors such as pH, temperature, and solvent conditions. Thus, it is more complex.
