Psoriasis is a long-lasting skin condition characterized by redness and thick silver scales on the skin's surface. It involves various skin cells, including keratinocytes, dendritic cells, T lymphocytes, and neutrophils. The treatments for psoriasis range from topical to systemic therapies, but they only alleviate the symptoms and do not provide a fundamental cure. Moreover, systemic treatments have the disadvantage of suppressing the entire body's immune system. Therefore, a new treatment strategy with minimal impact on the immune system is required. Recent studies have shown that sphingolipid metabolites, particularly ceramide and sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), play a significant role in psoriasis. Specific S1P-S1P-receptor (S1PR) signaling pathways have been identified as crucial to psoriasis inflammation. Based on these findings, S1PR modulators have been investigated and have been found to improve psoriasis inflammation. This review will discuss the metabolic pathways of sphingolipids, the individual functions of these metabolites, and their potential as a new therapeutic approach to psoriasis.

A common digestive system cancer with a dismal prognosis and a high death rate globally is breast cancer (BRCA). BRCA recurrence, metastasis, and medication resistance are all significantly impacted by cancer stem cells (CSCs). However, the relationship between CSCs and the tumor microenvironment in BRCA individuals remains unknown, and this information is critically needed.

Symbioses are major drivers of organismal diversification and phenotypic innovation. However, how long-term symbioses shape whole genome evolution in metazoans is still underexplored. Here, we use a giant clam (Tridacna maxima) genome to demonstrate how symbiosis has left complex signatures in an animal's genome.

Within ovarian cancer research, patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models recapitulate histologic features and genomic aberrations found in original tumors. However, conflicting data from published studies have demonstrated significant transcriptional differences between PDXs and original tumors, challenging the fidelity of these models. We employed a quantitative mass spectrometry-based proteomic approach coupled with generation of patient-specific databases using RNA-seq data to investigate the proteogenomic landscape of serially-passaged PDX models established from two patients with distinct subtypes of ovarian cancer.

Coronaviruses evade detection by the host immune system with the help of the endoribonuclease Nsp15, which regulates levels of viral double stranded RNA by cleaving 3' of uridine (U). While prior structural data shows that to cleave double stranded RNA, Nsp15's target U must be flipped out of the helix, it is not yet understood whether Nsp15 initiates flipping or captures spontaneously flipped bases. We address this gap by designing fluorinated double stranded RNA substrates that allow us to directly relate a U's sequence context to both its tendency to spontaneously flip and its susceptibility to cleavage by Nsp15.
