Article Abstract
The majority of cancers remain incurable due to limited therapeutic responses in malignancies with high-risk genetic mutations such as TP53. Building on the success of mRNA vaccine technology, we investigated circular RNA (circRNA) therapeutics and identified hsa_circp53_0041947, a TP53-derived circRNA in multiple myeloma (MM). The hsa_circp53_0041947 encodes a functional peptide (circp53-209aa) demonstrating p53 mutation-independent anti-MM effects through CypD/TRAP1/HSP90 complex-mediated mechanisms. Specifically, circp53-209aa activated cyclophilin D (CypD) isomerase activity at the circp53-209aa-R175 site, triggering mitochondrial permeability transition pore opening and subsequent mitochondrial apoptosis. To enable targeted delivery, we engineered extracellular vesicle (EV) systems, E7-Lamp2b-EVs and Her2-Lamp2b-EVs, for MM and colorectal cancer, respectively. Circp53-EVs administration achieved tumor-selective growth inhibition in both malignancies. Our study establishes engineered circp53-EVs as a versatile therapeutic platform, demonstrating the translational potential of circRNA-based strategies for refractory cancers with TP53 pathway alterations.

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are involved in cell-to-cell communication and delivery of signaling molecules and represent an interesting approach in targeted therapy. This project focused on EV-mediated facilitation and cell-specific delivery of effector antimiR molecules carried by biologically produced gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). First, we loaded EVs derived from cancer cells 4T1 with AuNPs-antimiR.

Clathrin light chain B (CLTB) is one of the three light chain subunits of the clathrin complex. This study aims to elucidate the role of CLTB in the pathogenesis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and its clinical implications. Clinical and bioinformatic analyses reveal marked CLTB overexpression in HCC tissues.

This study elucidates the protective role of the AKT2/mTOR/VEGF axis in mitigating age-induced epididymal dysfunction and sperm deterioration. Utilizing iTRAQ proteomics and transcriptome sequencing in young (6-month) versus aged (18-month) rat models, we identified AKT2 and VEGF as key regulators of reproductive aging.

Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) is an emerging infectious disease caused by a novel tick-borne phlebitis virus of Bunyaviridae, newly named as Banda virus, characterized by high fever, thrombocytopenia, and leukopenia with high case fatality. Currently, no specific antiviral drugs are available to treat patients. Here, we report a natural lipid metabolite 25-Hydroxycholesterol (25HC) that inhibited SFTSV entry by activating the activity of acetyl-CoA-cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT), a lipid metabolism enzyme, affecting the accessible cholesterol translocation between the cytoplasm and plasma membranes (PMs).

Ischemic stroke remains a major cause of mortality and long-term disability, with few effective neuroprotective treatments currently available. Ferroptosis, an iron-dependent form of regulated cell death marked by lipid peroxidation, is increasingly recognized as a driver of neuronal damage. However, the mitochondrial mechanisms linking ischemia to ferroptosis remain poorly defined.
