Collecting duct carcinoma (CDC) is a rare but aggressive form of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) that has limited understanding and an undefined systemic therapeutic regimen. Herein, we conducted a comprehensive proteogenomic analysis of CDC tumors and normal adjacent tissues to elucidate the biology of the disease. CDC exhibited high heterogeneity in tumor mutational burden, and enhanced ribosome biogenesis was the most striking malignant feature of CDC, even compared with other common kidney carcinomas. Genomic data indicated that and amplification on chromosome 17q were associated with the activations of ribosome biogenesis and cell migration, respectively, which were relevant to tumor proliferation and metastasis. Proteomic-based classification identified 3 clusters, among which, tumors overexpressing ribosome biogenesis signaling (GP1) clustered into the most aggressive subtype, while tumors with increased energy metabolism (GP3) exhibited significant sensitivity to anti-vascular endothelial growth factor agents. Immune subtyping revealed a complex immune landscape of CDC. Additionally, increased RPF2, contributing to ribosome production, was validated to be associated with malignant phenotypes, and targeting RPF2 could exert an anti-oncogenic role by disrupting ribosome biogenesis and perturbing the MDM2-p53 interaction.

Fish is one of the most common causes of food allergy. The global prevalence of fish allergy has increased over the years as a result of the increased fish consumption. In allergic individuals even small amounts of allergen can trigger a life-threatening allergic reaction.

Chronic treatment with fluoxetine, a widely prescribed selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI), is known to promote neural plasticity. The role of fluoxetine in plasticity has been particularly tied to parvalbumin-positive interneurons, a key population of GABAergic neurons that regulate inhibitory tone and network stability. While our previous studies have highlighted fluoxetine-induced plasticity in the visual cortex and hippocampus, its cell-type-specific effects in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) remain unclear.

Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) involves oxidative stress-driven damage to glomeruli (Gloms) and proximal convoluted tubules (PCT). NAD(P)H: quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) regulates redox balance, but its compartment-specific role remains unclear. Streptozotocin (STZ)-induced hyperglycemia increased albuminuria and foot process effacement, with NQO1 KO (NKO) mice exhibiting greater podocyte injury than WT, indicating exacerbated glomerular damage.
