Article Abstract
The neural circuits orchestrating complex behavioral response strategies to threat are not understood. In this issue of Neuron, Wang et al. (2021) establish the hypothalamic dorsal premammillary nucleus as a critical node that communicates with thalamic and midbrain regions to coordinate diverse escape strategies.

Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) are lead non-viral vectors for delivering nucleic acids. LNPs can efficiently encapsulate nucleic acids, protect them from degradation, enhance cellular uptake and induce endosome escape, which show high transfection efficiency and low immunogenicity. In this review, we first introduce the LNP components, highlighting their critical roles in encapsulation, stability, delivery efficiency, and tissue tropism.

Functioning upstream in immune activation cascades, MIF influences macrophage polarization, T and B cell differentiation, and cytokine expression through CD74, CXCR2/4/7, and downstream signaling via NF-κB, ERK1/2, and PI3K/AKT pathways. This review provides a comprehensive analysis of MIF's mechanistic functions under both physiological and pathological conditions, highlighting its dual role as a protective mediator during acute stress and as a pro-inflammatory amplifier in chronic disease.

The enantioselective construction of quaternary carbon stereocenters bearing amine functionalities represents a significant challenge in organic synthesis despite their prevalence in pharmaceutically active compounds. Herein, we report a versatile metallaphotoredox platform for the asymmetric incorporation of amine fragments onto quaternary carbons via coupling of alkene-tethered aryl bromides with readily available α-silylamines. This transformation proceeds under mild conditions without requiring organometallic reagents or stoichiometric reductants.

Drug-escape, where a target evolves to escape inhibition from a drug, has the potential to lead to cross-resistance where drugs that are structurally related or share similar binding mechanisms all become less effective. PLpro inhibitors are currently under development and many emerging PLpro inhibitors are derived from GRL0617, a repurposed SARS-CoV PLpro inhibitor with moderate activity against SARS-CoV-2. Two leading derivatives, PF-07957472 and Jun12682, demonstrate low nanomolar activity and display activity in mice.

Unlabelled: Ongoing viral evolution in immunocompromised individuals with persistent infection may facilitate the evolution of SARS-CoV-2 and emergence of variants of concern (VOC). This study was conducted in the Western Cape Province of South Africa where the HIV prevalence is around 8%, with limited information on the frequency of persistent SARS-CoV-2 infection, the pattern of evolution in these individuals, and if these variants contribute to the diversity of circulating viruses. This study investigated 75 individuals with two or more SARS-CoV-2 diagnoses at least one month apart.
