X-ray irradiation induces widespread changes in gene expression. Positioned at the bottom of the central dogma, translational regulation responds swiftly to environmental stimuli, fine-tuning protein levels. However, the global view of mRNA translation following X-ray exposure remains unclear. In this study, we systematically investigated X-ray-induced translational alternation using ribosome profiling. Our study revealed a temporary translation inhibition in HEK293T cells following X-ray treatment. A subset of mRNAs experienced translational upregulation by bypassing upstream open reading frames (uORFs). The upregulated genes were enriched in the MAPK signaling pathway, such as MAPKBP1. Suppression of MAPKBP1 inhibited X-ray-induced cell apoptosis. Furthermore, we identified the induction of novel peptides encoded by small open reading frames (smORFs) within long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) upon X-ray treatment. Overall, our findings provide a comprehensive overview of the translational landscape within eukaryotic cells following X-ray treatment, offering new insights into DNA damage response.

Background: Generalized lymphatic anomaly (GLA) is a rare congenital lymphatic malformation (LM) characterized by multiple infiltrating lymphangiomas in various tissues. Owing to its rarity, information on this disease is obtained mainly through case reports, leading to delayed diagnosis. In this study, we reported a case of generalized lymphatic anomaly in a pediatric patient manifesting as hemorrhagic pleural effusion.

Sox genes encode a family of transcription factors that regulate multiple biological processes during metazoan development, including embryogenesis, tissue homeostasis, nervous system specification, and stem cell maintenance. The planarian Dugesia japonica contains a reservoir of stem cells that grow and divide continuously to support cellular turnover. However, whether SOX proteins retain these conserved functions in planarians remains to be determined.

About 50% of all cancers carry a mutation in p53 that impairs its tumor suppressor function. The p53 missense mutation p53 (p53 in mice) is a hotspot mutation in various cancer types. Therefore, monoclonal antibodies selectively targeting clinically relevant mutations like p53 could prove immensely value.

To investigate the clinicopathological characteristics, immunophenotypes, diagnostic criteria and differential diagnosis of atrophic kidney-like lesion (AKLL). Three cases of AKLL were collected from April 2021 to October 2023 at the Xiangya Hospital of Central South University, Changsha, Zhejiang Provincial People's Hospital, Hangzhou and Ningbo Clinical Pathology Diagnosis Center, Ningbo, China. The clinical, morphological, and immunohistochemical characteristics were analyzed.
