Article Abstract

Sample multiplexing using isobaric tagging is a powerful strategy for proteome-wide protein quantification. One major caveat of isobaric tagging is ratio compression that results from the isolation, fragmentation, and quantification of coeluting, near-isobaric peptides, a phenomenon typically referred to as "ion interference". A robust platform to ensure quality control, optimize parameters, and enable comparisons across samples is essential as new instrumentation and analytical methods evolve. Here, we introduce TKO-iQC, an integrated platform consisting of the Triple Knockout (TKO) yeast digest standard and an automated web-based database search and protein profile visualization application. We highlight two new TKO standards based on the TMTpro reagent (TKOpro9 and TKOpro16) as well as an updated TKO Viewing Tool, TVT2.0. TKO-iQC greatly facilitates the comparison of instrument performance with a straightforward and streamlined workflow.

Background: Atherosclerosis (AS) is a leading risk factor for cardiovascular diseases globally, characterised by the accumulation of lipids and cholesterol in arterial walls, causing vascular narrowing and sclerosis along with chronic inflammation; this leads to increased risk of heart disease and stroke, significantly impacting patients' health. Danxia Tiaoban Decoction (DXTB), a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) formula, has demonstrated positive clinical effects in treating AS; however, its mechanisms of action remain unclear.

Objective: To explore the potential mechanisms of action of DXTB in treating AS through multi-omics integration and experimental validation.

Redundant and novel functions of scube genes during zebrafish development.

Dev Biol

Australian Regenerative Medicine Institute, Monash University, Melbourne, VIC 3800, Australia. Electronic address:

The N-glycoprotein SCUBE family (Scube1, Scube2, and Scube3) plays diverse roles in vertebrate development and disease, yet many specific functions of the three family members remain unclear. These proteins exhibit broad tissue expression patterns, exist as soluble or membrane-tethered forms, and can form homo- or heteromeric complexes with each other, exerting both short- and long-range effects. Individual functional characterisation proves challenging because overlapping expression patterns and compensatory mechanisms likely obscure specific roles.

The ubiquitin-proteasome system is a highly conserved machinery that plays a crucial role in plant defense against viruses. However, the number of E3 ligases targeting viral proteins remains limited. Although RING-between-RING (RBR)-type E3 ligases are evolutionarily conserved across organisms, their functions in plant responses to biotic stress remain largely unknown.

The current model for autonomous circadian oscillation is based on the transcriptional-translational feedback loops of circadian genes. The deletion of one of the circadian genes and its paralogs leads to arrhythmicity. triple knockout ( KO) mice exhibit arrhythmic behavior in constant darkness.

AEBP1 drives fibroblast-mediated T cell dysfunction in tumors.

Nat Commun

September 2025

Department of Breast and Thyroid Surgery, Chongqing Key Laboratory of Molecular Oncology and Epigenetics, The First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University, Chongqing, China.

T cell dysfunction enables tumor immune evasion, understanding its mechanism is crucial for improving immunotherapy. Here we show, by RNA-sequencing analysis of human colon adenocarcinoma and triple-negative breast cancer tissues, that expression of Adipocyte Enhancer-Binding Protein 1 (AEBP1) positively correlates with T cell dysfunction and indicative of unfavorable patient outcomes. Subsequent single-cell RNA sequencing identifies cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAF) as the primary AEBP1 source.
