Enhancing Cap-Independent Translation of Linear mRNA
2026-09-17
Golojuch and colleagues introduce an azide-modified dinucleotide priming and click-chemistry workflow for improving cap-independent translation of linear mRNA. The approach increased transcript stability and protein output without detected immunogenicity in the reported assays, while also providing a tool for studying mRNA delivery and translation in cells.

From dNTP Fidelity to Smarter Nucleic Acid Delivery
2026-09-14
Translational success depends on controlling both the molecular input and the biological context in which nucleic acids are synthesized, measured, and delivered. This article connects the reproducibility of an equimolar 10 mM dNTP mixture with emerging evidence that LNP surface charge and target-cell V-ATPase activity jointly shape intracellular delivery.

Arachidonic Acid: Eicosanoid Signaling Guide
2026-09-14
Arachidonic Acid is a polyunsaturated omega-6 fatty acid that links membrane phospholipid turnover to eicosanoid biosynthesis through cyclooxygenase, lipoxygenase, and cytochrome P450 pathways. Research also reports that dietary arachidonic acid accelerated rabies vaccine antibody responses in mice and human volunteers, while product use still requires solvent controls, pathway-specific readouts, and careful storage.

EAGLE-1: Oral Gepotidacin for Gonorrhoea
2026-09-13
EAGLE-1 evaluated oral gepotidacin against ceftriaxone plus azithromycin for uncomplicated urogenital gonorrhoea in a phase 3 non-inferiority trial. Its findings support gepotidacin as a potential oral option with a distinct DNA-replication mechanism, while gastrointestinal tolerability and the study’s restricted population remain important considerations.

Cortistatin, Akt Signaling, and Steroid-Induced ONFH
2026-09-12
The reference study identifies cortistatin as a protective regulator of glucocorticoid-associated osteonecrosis of the femoral head and links its activity to GHSR1a/Akt signaling. By combining human observations, a rat disease model, and osteoblast and endothelial-cell experiments, the work connects reduced cortistatin with apoptosis, impaired bone metabolism, and vascular dysfunction.

BAPTA-AM Protocol for Intracellular Calcium Control
2026-09-11
BAPTA-AM is a cell-permeable calcium chelator used to reduce experimentally accessible intracellular free Ca²⁺ and examine calcium-dependent responses. It is appropriate for controlled live-cell, calcium-signaling, apoptosis assay, and ion-channel workflows, but requires caution when magnesium sensitivity, potassium-channel blockade, or solvent effects could confound the endpoint.
