Sun Y et. al. (October 2023). Evaluation and Mechanistic Study of Transgenerational Neurotoxicity in Zebrafish upon Life Cycle Exposure to Decabromodiphenyl Ethane (DBDPE) Environ Sci Technol.
The study investigates the impact of the flame retardant DBDPE on zebrafish across multiple generations. Zebrafish exposed to DBDPE showed transgenerational neurotoxic effects, affecting growth and social behavior in adult zebrafish. While maternal transfer of DBDPE was not observed, there were disruptions in the parental transfer of neurotransmitters to offspring. This research highlights the potential risks of DBDPE exposure to wild fish populations.

Filipowicz G et. al. (October 2023). Mixed Connective Tissue Disease as Different Entity: Global Methylation Aspect Int J Mol Sci. 24(20)
The article investigates global DNA methylation in Mixed Connective Tissue Disease (MCTD) and its relation to other Autoimmune Connective Tissue Diseases (ACTDs). Although global DNA methylation was not significantly different between MCTD and healthy controls, it distinguished MCTD from systemic sclerosis (SSc) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The study suggests that DNA methylation levels vary among different ACTDs, emphasizing the need for further research into their diagnostic significance for MCTD.

Boovarahan SR et. al. (October 2023). DNA hypomethylation by fisetin preserves mitochondria functional genes and contributes to the protection of I/R rat heart Funct Integr Genomics. 23(4):325.
The study explores how fisetin, a natural compound, protects rat hearts from ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury by influencing DNA methylation and mitochondrial gene expression. Fisetin treatment reduces DNA hypermethylation, decreases infarct size, and improves cardiac recovery in I/R rats. Fisetin modulates genes related to DNA methylation and mitochondrial function, offering cardioprotection against I/R by improving cardiac function and gene expression.

Thakur V et. al. (October 2023). Role of Histone Deacetylase Inhibitor in Diabetic Painful Neuropathy Mol Neurobiol.
The article investigates using the histone deacetylase inhibitor FK228 (romidepsin) to treat diabetic painful neuropathy (DPN). DPN is characterized by neuroinflammatory changes, including the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps. FK228 treatment in diabetic mice significantly reduces pain and affects various markers related to nerve regeneration and inflammation, offering a potential alternative treatment for DPN.

Wang C et. al. (October 2023). SETD4 inhibits prostate cancer development by promoting H3K27me3-mediated NUPR1 transcriptional repression and cell cycle arrest Cancer Lett. :216464.
The study investigates the role of SETD4, a methyltransferase, in prostate cancer (PCa). SETD4 is found to suppress PCa development by inhibiting NUPR1 transcription through H3K27me3, leading to Akt pathway inactivation and cell cycle arrest. These findings suggest SETD4 could be a potential target for PCa prognosis and treatment.

Wang N et. al. (October 2023). P300/CBP Regulates HIF-1 Dependent Sympathetic Activation and Hypertension by Intermittent Hypoxia Am J Respir Cell Mol Biol.
The article investigates how intermittent hypoxia (IH) in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) leads to sympathetic activation and hypertension. It focuses on the role of lysine acetylation by p300/CBP in activating HIF-1 and subsequent gene transcription, NADPH oxidase activation, and autonomic dysfunction. The findings reveal that p300/CBP-mediated lysine acetylation of HIF-1α plays a significant role in IH-induced sympathetic activation and hypertension.

Wang QM et. al. (October 2023). Exosomal lncRNA NEAT1 inhibits NK cell activity to promote multiple myeloma cell immune escape via an EZH2/PBX1 axis Mol Cancer Res.
The study explores how exosomal long non-coding RNA NEAT1 contributes to immune evasion by multiple myeloma (MM) cells. MM-derived exosomes with NEAT1 inhibit natural killer (NK) cell activity by suppressing PBX1 via the EZH2/PBX1 axis, facilitating MM cell immune escape. Silencing NEAT1 in exosomes reduces tumor growth and boosts NK cell function. This research presents a promising therapeutic strategy for multiple myeloma.
