Reviews & Analysis

Filter By:

  • This review summarizes reported findings showing that adenosine-to-inosine RNA editing is important for cardiovascular development and homeostasis, while aberrant editing is associated with cardiovascular diseases.

    • Xiaoxin Huang
    • Charles Solomon
    • Shu Ye
    Mini ReviewOpen Access
  • This Review examines experimental models for evaluating nucleic acid therapeutics, emphasizing the need for effective preclinical models to assess molecular and phenotypic efficacy at each stage of development.

    • Peter L. Oliver
    • Alyssa C. Hill
    Review ArticleOpen Access
  • This review discusses what is known about Mincle regulation: where and when it is expressed, how it binds its ligands, and the factors involved in modulating its signaling.

    • Lindsay G. Serene
    • Robert Buchanan
    • Alexiane Decout
    Mini ReviewOpen Access
  • This review summarizes how molecular chaperones enable structures of small inactive-state GPCRs by improving particle alignment and effective molecular weight, delivering high-resolution cryo-EM insights and guiding community decisions on stabilization strategies.

    • Swapnil Kumar Singh
    • Mahek Agrawal
    • Punita Kumari
    Review ArticleOpen Access
  • This review summarizes how catabolic rewiring lets tumors harvest fuels and why dietary interventions have limited impact on nutrient supply but meaningful endocrine and immune benefits that burden tumor metabolism and complement standard care.

    • Christos Chinopoulos
    Review ArticleOpen Access
  • Our review summarizes recent advances in understanding the diverse roles of nuclear lamins in mitosis and discusses how their dysregulation - observed in several diseases - could affect this essential process required for faithful genome inheritance.

    • Julien Picotto
    • Pascale Bertrand
    • Gaëlle Pennarun
    Review ArticleOpen Access
  • The ancestral evolutionary states of thylakoid membranes may have been initially dedicated to non-oxygenic alternative electron flows.

    • Luc Cornet
    PerspectiveOpen Access
  • This Review highlights how extremophile microbiomes and synthetic biology approaches could support Martian terraforming by driving biogeochemical cycles, regolith transformation, and future life-support ecosystems.

    • Claudia Coleine
    • Manuel Delgado-Baquerizo
    • Andrea Zerboni
    Review ArticleOpen Access
  • This review applies the allostasis framework to complex diseases, linking chronic stress and allostatic load to drug addiction, immune diseases, and cancer, and highlights multi-omics, iPSC, and organoid technologies as emerging tools to study them.

    • InWha Park
    • Hyokyeong Gwon
    • Soah Lee
    Review ArticleOpen Access
  • Motion sickness, a common response to unnatural motion, varies widely among individuals. A review of recent findings highlights the gut’s active role, including its brain-body pathways potentially driving pathophysiology and hinting at a more complex model than previously thought.

    • Tessa M. W. Talsma
    • Ksander N. de Winkel
    PerspectiveOpen Access
  • This review outlines how mammalian cells adapt to cold via ion channels, uncoupling proteins, epigenetic changes, and RNA-binding proteins, with insights from hibernators highlighting therapeutic potential in metabolism and neuroprotection.

    • Paulami Dey
    • Heera Lal
    • Arvind Ramanathan
    Review ArticleOpen Access
  • This review explores the genomic diversity, ecology, and functional potential of the bacterial family Endozoicomonadaceae in marine symbioses, highlighting their mutualistic to parasitic spectrum and key gaps to be addressed in future research.

    • Daniela M. G. da Silva
    • Rodrigo Costa
    • Tina Keller-Costa
    Review ArticleOpen Access
  • A review summarizes the knowledge about the role of redox homeostasis in the functioning of skin melanocytes and about the possibilities of influencing this status by natural compounds, including vitamins, as well as polyphenols or phytocannabinoids.

    • Elżbieta Skrzydlewska
    • Agnieszka Gęgotek
    Review ArticleOpen Access
  • This Perspective presents a JEVbased gene therapy platform that delivers and amplifies RNA ASOs within neurons to silence mutant SOD1 in ALS. By combining Trojan horse delivery, neuronspecific replication, and sustained action, this strategy offers a precise and durable framework for CNS-targeted intervention.
