The nucleolus, traditionally known for its role in ribosome biogenesis, is now recognized for its broader functions, including cellular stress adaptation and its involvement in various pathological processes, such as ribosomal alterations, viral infections, autoimmune disorders, and age-related diseases. Disruptions in nucleolar function can impair protein synthesis, cellular homeostasis, and immune responses, leading to multisystem disorders and increased susceptibility to neoplasms. This review classifies nucleolus-associated diseases into seven categories: deficiencies in protein synthesis, ribosomal and non-ribosomal alterations, cancer and nucleolar alterations, diseases related to aging and cellular stress, autoimmune diseases, and viral diseases. Understanding the complexity of the nucleolus and its dysfunctions represents a fundamental step toward advancing knowledge of the molecular basis of these pathologies, laying the groundwork for future research addressing its implications in cell biology and the development of human diseases. This article is categorized under: Immune System Diseases > Molecular and Cellular Physiology Neurological Diseases > Molecular and Cellular Physiology.

Three antileishmanial compounds incorporating a butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) moiety and an acrylate-based Michael acceptor scaffold were rationally designed from the lead structures LQFM064 and LQFM332, which feature a chalcone-derived core. Their activities against Leishmania (L.) amazonensis were evaluated.

Objectives Background: Monocyte anisocytosis (monocyte distribution width [MDW]) has been previously validated to predict sepsis and outcome in patients presenting in the emergency department and mixed-population ICUs. Determining sepsis in a critically ill surgical/trauma population is often difficult due to concomitant inflammation and stress. We examined whether MDW could identify sepsis among patients admitted to a surgical/trauma ICU and predict clinical outcome.

Aims: Although the ability of the heart to adapt to environmental stress has been studied extensively, the molecular and cellular mechanisms responsible for cardioprotection are not yet fully understood. In this study, we sought to elucidate these mechanisms for cytoprotection using a model of stress-induced cardiomyopathy.
Methods And Results: We administered Toll-like receptor (TLR) agonists or diluent to wild-type mice and assessed for cardioprotection against injury from a high intraperitoneal dose of isoproterenol (ISO) administered 7 days later.

Sickness-induced sleep is a behavior conserved across species that promotes recovery from illness, yet the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. Here, we show that interleukin-6-like cytokine signaling from the gut to brain glial cells regulates sleep. Under healthy conditions, this pathway promotes wakefulness.

Radiotherapy, a prevalent and effective treatment for various malignancies, often causes collateral damage to normal skin and soft tissues in the irradiated area. To address this, we developed a novel approach combining SVFG-modified adipose-derived high-activity matrix cell clusters (HAMCC) with concentrated growth factors (CGF) to enhance regeneration and repair of radiation-induced skin and soft tissue injuries. Our study included cellular assays, wound healing evaluations, and histological analyses.
