Biodegradable Polyesters for VEGF mRNA Delivery in CLI
2026-09-20
The reference study develops arginine- and lysine-functionalized three-armed biodegradable polyesters as alternatives to conventional cationic lipids for VEGF mRNA delivery in critical limb ischemia. Its most important contribution is the integration of mRNA transfection, biodegradability, reactive oxygen species scavenging, and nitric oxide release within one lipid nanoparticle platform.

CDK4/6–BET Synergy in Pancreatic Cancer
2026-09-19
Gu et al. show that combining the CDK4/6 inhibitor palbociclib with the BET inhibitor JQ1 can overcome a major limitation of CDK4/6 inhibition in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma: enhanced migration, invasion, and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition. The study links this response to GSK3β-mediated Wnt/β-catenin activation and provides preclinical evidence for coordinated control of cell-cycle and transcriptional signaling.

Viral RIPK3 Degradation and Neddylation Biology
2026-09-17
Liu and colleagues identified a viral inducer of RIPK3 degradation, or vIRD, that links orthopoxvirus immune evasion to the host SCF ubiquitin-ligase machinery. The study shows that viral control of RIPK3-dependent necroptosis can alter inflammation, replication, and disease severity, providing a mechanistic framework for examining neddylation-dependent protein degradation in infection and cancer biology research.
