Translating ribosomes slow down or completely stall when they encounter obstacles on mRNAs. Such events can lead to ribosomes colliding with each other and forming complexes of two (disome), three (trisome) or more ribosomes. While these events can activate surveillance pathways, it has been unclear if collisions are common on endogenous mRNAs and whether they are usually detected by these cellular pathways. Recent genome-wide surveys of collisions revealed widespread distribution of disomes and trisomes across endogenous mRNAs in eukaryotic cells. Several studies further hinted that the recognition of collisions and response to them by multiple surveillance pathways depend on the context and duration of the ribosome stalling. This review considers recent efforts in the identification of endogenous ribosome collisions and cellular pathways dedicated to sense their severity. We further discuss the potential role of collided ribosomes in modulating co-translational events and contributing to cellular homeostasis.

Obesity and type 2 diabetes are prevalent chronic diseases effectively managed by semaglutide. Here we studied the effects of semaglutide on the circulating proteome using baseline and end-of-treatment serum samples from two phase 3 trials in participants with overweight or obesity, with or without diabetes: STEP 1 (n = 1,311) and STEP 2 (n = 645). We identified evidence supporting broad effects of semaglutide, implicating processes related to body weight regulation, glycemic control, lipid metabolism and inflammatory pathways.

Refining breast cancer genetic risk and biology through multi-ancestry fine-mapping analyses of 192 risk regions.

Nat Genet

Division of Epidemiology, Department of Medicine, Vanderbilt Epidemiology Center, Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center, Vanderbilt University Medical Center, Nashville, TN, USA.

Genome-wide association studies have identified approximately 200 genetic risk loci for breast cancer, but the causal variants and target genes are mostly unknown. We sought to fine-map all known breast cancer risk loci using genome-wide association study data from 172,737 female breast cancer cases and 242,009 controls of African, Asian and European ancestry. We identified 332 independent association signals for breast cancer risk, including 131 signals not reported previously, and for 50 of them, we narrowed the credible causal variants down to a single variant.

Pacific Peoples' Experiences of Cancer and Its Treatment in Aotearoa New Zealand Through Talanoa: A Qualitative Study of Samoan and Tongan Participants.

JCO Glob Oncol

January 2025

Auckland Regional Cancer and Blood Service, Te Toka Tumai Auckland, Health New Zealand, Te Whatu Ora, Auckland, New Zealand.

Purpose: In Aotearoa New Zealand, there are inequitable outcomes for Pacific peoples who experience higher rates of preventable cancers and poorer survival compared with other ethnicities. The aim of this study was to explore Pacific peoples lived experience of cancer and its treatment in the Auckland setting.

Methods: Data were collected through semistructured interviews (talanoa) with Pacific patients under the Auckland Regional Cancer and Blood Service.
