Iron Stress Reprograms Enterocyte Metabolism
2026-09-09
Navazesh and Ji show that both iron deficiency and iron excess remodel metabolism and inflammatory gene expression in IPEC-J2 enterocytes, but through distinct patterns of transcriptional and metabolic change. The study’s combined iron perturbation, LPS challenge, and untargeted metabolomics design provides a useful framework for linking cellular iron status to intestinal proliferation, energy production, and epithelial resilience.

SMYD2 Inhibition in Cisplatin-Induced Renal Fibrosis
2026-09-01
The reference study identifies SMYD2 as a pharmacologically tractable regulator of cisplatin-induced chronic kidney disease, linking its inhibition to reduced renal fibrosis, inflammation, and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition. Its combined inhibitor and tubular epithelial-cell design provides a useful framework for separating SMYD2-associated signaling from broader consequences of kidney injury.

ASCH Proteins and N4-Acetylcytidine Processing
2026-08-31
Meng et al. define how the ASCH-domain enzyme EcYqfB hydrolyzes free N4-acetylcytidine to cytidine while showing that it does not remove ac4C from cellular RNA. Comparative structures of EcYqfB, mouse EOLA1, and the human TRIP4-ASCH domain reveal how related proteins can differ in substrate recognition, informing RNA modification and nucleotide-processing studies.
