As a key N-methyladenosine (mA) reader, YTH domain-containing family protein 1 (YTHDF1) promotes protein synthesis by recognizing mA-modified mRNA, and its abnormal expression is closely related to breast cancer (BC) progression. To date, the scarce reported YTHDF1 inhibitors suffer from poor selectivity and limited potency, primarily due to the high homology of the YTH domain within the YTHDF family, which poses significant challenges for the discovery of subtype-selective inhibitors. Here, we report SKLB-Y13, the first small-molecule inhibitor achieving exclusive targeting of the YTHDF1 mA-binding pocket (IC = 0.

This article explores the bidirectional relationship between type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and depression, focusing on their shared pathophysiological mechanisms, including immune-inflammatory responses, gut-brain axis dysregulation, metabolic abnormalities, and neuroendocrine modulation. Research indicates that T2DM contributes to anxiety and depression through chronic low-grade inflammation, insulin resistance, gut microbiota imbalance, and hyperactivation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis. Conversely, depression may increase the risk of T2DM lifestyle disruption, immune activation, and neurotransmitter imbalance.

Homeostasis and energy and substance metabolism reprogramming shape various tumor microenvironment to sustain cancer stemness, self-plasticity and treatment resistance. Aiming at them, a lipid-based pharmaceutical loaded with CaO and glucose oxidase (GOx) (LipoCaO/GOx, LCG) has been obtained to disrupt calcium homeostasis and interfere with glycometabolism. The loaded GOx can decompose glucose into HO and gluconic acid, thus competing with anaerobic glycolysis to hamper lactic acid (LA) secretion.

Lithium-sulfurized polyacrylonitrile (SPAN) batteries show great promise for energy storage, but are plagued by poor cycling stability, which can be attributed to unfavorable electrode/electrolyte interphases for both anode and cathode. Here we design and achieve the anion-moderate solvation structure based interconnected clusters in electrolyte by regulating the interactions of solvent with Li and diluent to construct robust anode/electrolyte and cathode/electrolyte interphases simultaneously for high-performance Li-SPAN batteries. The optimal electrolyte endows Li plating/stripping with a high Coulombic efficiency of 99.

Idiopathic generalized epilepsy (IGE) is a brain network disease, but the location of this network and its relevance for treatment remain unclear. We combine the locations of brain abnormalities in IGE (131 coordinates from 21 studies) with the human connectome to identify an IGE network. We validate this network by showing alignment with structural brain abnormalities previously identified in IGE and brain areas activated by generalized epileptiform discharges in simultaneous electroencephalogram-functional magnetic resonance imaging.
