HRD1-SEL1L Controls Stress Granule Homeostasis
2026-09-04
Shi and colleagues identify the HRD1-SEL1L ubiquitin ligase as a regulator of heat shock-induced stress granule homeostasis and connect this activity to the BiP-PERK-eIF2α branch of endoplasmic reticulum stress. The study provides a mechanistic framework for examining how ubiquitin-proteasome function, p97 activity, and stress granule dynamics cooperate during proteotoxic stress.

Dinaciclib Selectively Targets VHL-Deficient CC-RCC
2026-09-03
The reference study identifies a synthetic-lethal relationship between Dinaciclib treatment and loss of the VHL tumor suppressor in clear cell renal cell carcinoma. Its combination of cell-based, mechanistic, and orthotopic patient-derived xenograft experiments suggests that cell-cycle inhibition can suppress both CD105-positive and CD105-negative tumor populations while retaining a context-dependent therapeutic window.

Cx43, Actin Remodelling, and Lysosomal Exocytosis
2026-08-30
The reference study identifies Connexin43 (Cx43) as a regulator of damaged-lysosome exocytosis and links this activity to Arp2-dependent actin remodelling. Its findings expand lysosomal quality control beyond membrane repair and lysophagy, while providing a mechanistic framework for studying how cytoskeletal state influences organelle disposal and cellular recovery.

PRRSV N Protein, Caspase-6, and Immune Evasion
2026-08-29
A 2026 Journal of Virology study identifies a host–virus mechanism in which PRRSV uses caspase-6 to cleave its nucleocapsid protein at the conserved D94 site, suppressing IRF3-dependent type I interferon responses and enhancing replication. Reverse-genetic disruption of this site attenuated viral growth and pathogenicity, providing a mechanistic basis for host-directed antiviral strategies and rational live-attenuated vaccine design.

Reelin–SFK Signaling in Ketamine Action
2026-08-28
The reference study identifies Reelin–Apoer2–Src family kinase signaling as a permissive pathway for ketamine-induced hippocampal plasticity and behavioral responses. Its genetic and pharmacological experiments suggest that impaired baseline NMDA receptor function, rather than a failure of ketamine to acutely engage Reelin signaling, may contribute to antidepressant nonresponse.
