Certain Protein Phosphatase 2A (PP2A) complexes are human tumor suppressors. In contrast, a paper in this issue of Cancer Cell and two other recent studies demonstrate that PP2A-STRN3/4 complexes inactivate Hippo tumor suppressor pathway, resulting in YAP activation and tumorigenesis. Furthermore, this new oncogenic phosphatase mechanism may be druggable.

Article Synopsis
- Recent developments in wound dressings focus on natural bioactives like guar gum (GG) and gallic acid (GA), which can enhance healing compared to traditional materials.
- The study created a GA-GG conjugate through a polymerization process, confirming its successful integration and beneficial structural changes via various spectroscopic analyses.
- A polyelectrolyte complex (PEC) film made with chitosan showed strong antioxidant and antimicrobial properties, high swelling rates, and excellent wound healing efficacy, achieving 94.5% closure in comparison to untreated controls.
Fatigue, pain and faecal incontinence in adult inflammatory bowel disease patients and the unmet need: a national cross-sectional survey.
BMC Gastroenterol

Florence Nightingale Faculty of Nursing, Midwifery and Palliative Care, King's College London, 57 Waterloo Road, London, London, SE1 8WA, UK.
Background And Aims: The co-existence of fatigue, pain and faecal incontinence in people with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) is unknown. We aimed to determine the presence of and relationship between these symptoms and patients' desire for intervention.
Methods: Adults with IBD in the UK, recruited from clinics, the national IBD-BioResource, a patient charity and social media sources, completed PROMIS validated patient-reported questionnaires to identify fatigue, pain and faecal incontinence, in addition to symptom severity and impact, disease activity, anxiety and depression questionnaires and questions about their desire for help with these symptoms.
Cytokinin Plays a Multifaceted Role in Ralstonia solanacearum-Triggered Plant Disease Development.

Cytokinin signalling plays both positive and negative roles in plant resistance to pathogens. It is not clear whether the role of cytokinin changes at the different stages of pathogen infection. Arabidopsis thaliana sequentially exhibits distinct root morphological symptoms during Ralstonia solanacearum infection, which offers a good system to investigate function of cytokinin in the whole pathogen infection process.
