Growing evidence suggests that the splicing of pre-mRNAs may be imperfect. Do quality control mechanisms exist to eliminate RNA molecules that have escaped the splicing process?

Aluminum Induces Neurotoxicity through the MicroRNA-98-5p/Insulin-like Growth Factor 2 Axis.
ACS Chem Neurosci
January 2025
Department of Occupational Health, School of Public Health, Shanxi Medical University, Taiyuan, Shanxi 030001, China.
Aluminum is a well-known and widely distributed environmental neurotoxin. This study aimed to investigate the effect of miR-98-5p targeting insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF2) on aluminum neurotoxicity. Thirty-two Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into four groups and administered 0, 10, 20, and 40 μmol/kg maltol aluminum [Al(mal)], respectively.

Background: The effects of physical activity (PA) across different domains and intensities on depressive symptoms remain inconclusive. Incorporating the community-built environment (CBE) into longitudinal analyses of PA's impact on depressive symptoms is crucial.
Objective: This study aims to examine the effects of PA at different intensities-low-intensity PA (eg, walking activities) and moderate-to-vigorous-intensity PA (eg, activities requiring substantial effort and causing faster breathing or shortness of breath)-across leisure-time and occupational domains on depressive symptom trajectories among middle-aged and older adults.
Role of Trained Immunity in Heath and Disease.

Center for Cardiovascular Research, Division of Cardiology, Department of Medicine, Washington University School of Medicine, 660 S Euclid Ave, Campus Box 8086, St. Louis, MO, 63110, USA.
Purpose Of Review: This review aims to explore the role of immune memory and trained immunity, focusing on how innate immune cells like monocytes, macrophages, and natural killer cells undergo long-term epigenetic and metabolic rewiring. Specifically, it examines the mechanisms by which trained immunity, often triggered by infection or vaccination, could impact cardiac processes and contribute to both protective and pathological responses within the cardiovascular system.
Recent Findings: Recent research demonstrates that vaccination and infection not only activate immune responses in circulating monocytes and tissue macrophages but also affect immune progenitor cells within the bone marrow environment, conferring lasting protection against heterologous infections.
( ) is the world's most deadly infectious pathogen and new drugs are urgently required to combat the emergence of multi-(MDR) and extensively-(XDR) drug resistant strains. The bacterium specifically upregulates sterol uptake pathways in infected macrophages and the metabolism of host-derived cholesterol is essential for long-term survival Here, we report the development of antitubercular small molecules that inhibit the cholesterol oxidases CYP125 and CYP142, which catalyze the initial step of cholesterol metabolism. An efficient biophysical fragment screen was used to characterize the structure-activity relationships of CYP125 and CYP142, and identify a non-azole small molecule that can bind to the heme cofactor of both enzymes.

Background & Aims: The role of infiltrating neutrophils in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is modulated by cellular metabolism, specifically lipid homeostasis. Throughout the progression of HCC, alterations in lipid metabolism are intricately linked with regulation of neutrophil function and the release of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs). However, how much the protumor effect of a high-fat diet (HFD) depends on NETs and the potential interplay between NETs and other leukocytes in HCC remains uncertain.
