Mitochondrial CAT-Tailing in Glioblastoma Growth
2026-08-15
Zhang, Cai et al. identify mitochondrial stress-induced carboxyl-terminal alanine-threonine tailing as a ribosome-associated quality-control response that supports glioblastoma survival, migration, and overgrowth. Their experiments connect CAT-tailed mitochondrial proteins, ATP synthase function, mitochondrial membrane potential, permeability transition, and apoptosis resistance, while suggesting that this pathway may be therapeutically tractable.

Injectable GelMA/QCS/Ca²⁺ Adhesive for Hemostasis
2026-08-14
The reference study develops an injectable GelMA/QCS/Ca²⁺ double-network adhesive that combines blue-light-triggered sealing with quaternary ammonium chitosan-mediated antibacterial functionality. Across laboratory and mouse injury models, the material improved hemostatic and antibacterial performance relative to fibrin glue and single-function hydrogels, supporting its investigation for non-compressible hemorrhage.

Caspase-3–NDUFS1 Axis in Trichothecene ROS
2026-08-14
This preprint identifies caspase-3-mediated cleavage of the mitochondrial complex I subunit NDUFS1 as a mechanistic driver of reactive oxygen species accumulation after DON or T-2 toxin exposure. It also places ERO1α-dependent endoplasmic reticulum stress in a positive feedback loop with mitochondrial injury, providing a more integrated model of trichothecene-induced hepatotoxicity.

Sex Differences in Angiotensin II Hypertension
2026-08-13
The reference study used telemetry in conscious, freely moving mice to show that chronic angiotensin II produces a much larger hypertensive response in males than females. Gonadectomy and autonomic intervention further connected this sex difference to hormone-dependent and sympathetic mechanisms, providing a useful framework for hypertension and autonomic nervous system studies.
