Tryptophan participates in important life activities and is involved in various metabolic processes. The indole and aromatic binuclear ring structure in tryptophan can engage in diverse interactions, including π-π, π-alkyl, hydrogen bonding, cation-π, and CH-π interactions with other side chains and protein targets. These interactions offer extensive opportunities for drug development.

-acetyltransferase 10 (NAT10) is a nucleolar acetyltransferase with an acetylation catalytic function and can bind various protein and RNA molecules. As the N4-acetylcytidine (ac4C) "writer" enzyme, NAT10 is reportedly involved in a variety of physiological and pathological activities. Currently, the NAT10-related molecular mechanisms in various cancers are not fully understood.

Ma recently reported in the that ferroptosis occurs in osteoblasts under high glucose conditions, reflecting diabetes pathology. This condition could be protected by the upregulation of the gene encoding polycytosine RNA-binding protein 1 (PCBP1). Additionally, Ma used a lentivirus infection system to express PCBP1.

The spatial organization of the genome plays a critical role in regulating gene expression, cellular differentiation, and genome stability. This review provides an in-depth examination of the methodologies, computational tools, and frameworks developed to map the three-dimensional (3D) architecture of the genome, focusing on both ligation-based and ligation-free techniques. We also explore the limitations of these methods, including biases introduced by restriction enzyme digestion and ligation inefficiencies, and compare them to more recent ligation-free approaches such as Genome Architecture Mapping (GAM) and Split-Pool Recognition of Interactions by Tag Extension (SPRITE).

Leydig cells play a crucial role in male reproductive physiology, and their dysfunction is often associated with male infertility. Hypoxia negatively affects the structure and function of Leydig cells. This study aimed to investigate the impact of melatonin on the c-Jun N-terminal kinase (Jnk), P38, and extra-cellular signal-regulated kinases 1 and 2 (Erk1/2) mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathways in TM3 mouse Leydig cells under hypoxia induced by cobalt (II) chloride (CoCl).
