Didemnins, a class of cyclic depsipeptides derived from marine organisms exhibit notable anticancer properties. Among them, Didemnin B has been extensively researched for its strong antitumor activity and progression to clinical trials. Nonetheless, its clinical application has been impeded by challenges like poor bioavailability and dose-limiting toxicity.

Large genetic variants can be generated via homologous recombination (HR), such as polymerase theta-mediated end joining (TMEJ) or single-strand annealing (SSA). Given that these HR-based mechanisms leave specific genomic signatures, we developed GDBr, a genomic signature interpretation tool for DNA double-strand break repair mechanisms using high-quality genome assemblies. We applied GDBr to a draft human pangenome reference.

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is a major contributor to liver-related morbidity, cardiovascular disease, and metabolic complications. Lifestyle interventions, including diet and exercise, are first line in treating MASLD. Dietary approaches such as the low-glycemic-index Mediterranean diet, the ketogenic diet, intermittent fasting, and high fiber diets have demonstrated potential in addressing the metabolic dysfunction underlying this condition.

Flavonoids are naturally occurring polyphenolic compounds known for their extensive range of biological activities. This review focuses on the inhibitory effects of flavonoids on acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and their potential as therapeutic agents for cognitive dysfunction. AChE, a serine hydrolase that plays a crucial role in cholinergic neurotransmission, is a key target in the treatment of cognitive impairments due to its function in acetylcholine hydrolysis.

Ischemic heart disease is the leading cause of death worldwide. Reduced oxygen supply and myocardial hypoxia lead to tissue damage and impairment of the heart function. To the best of our knowledge, the primary functional effects of hypoxia in the multicellular model of living myocardial slices (LMSs) have not been investigated so far.
