The optimized protocol for isolating small extracellular vesicles from small blood volumes, confirmed by independent methods including cryo-electron microscopy, ensures superior purity and high yield for reliable biomarker detection.
The dynamic internal fluidity of nuclear MORC2 condensates, rather than their mere assembly, is strictly required for transcriptional regulation and is selectively disrupted by neuropathy-linked mutations.
An evolution-guided framework is proposed to accelerate the discovery and therapeutic targeting of understudied dark channels by integrating sequence, structure, and functional data from diverse organisms.
Biochemical and genetic evidence identifies ATP5I as a biguanide target, redefining biguanide action through ATP synthase regulation and assembly, mitochondrial architecture, and mitochondrial protein turnover.

Identification of mangostins as potent BK channel activators links natural xanthones to vascular smooth muscle relaxation, providing a mechanistic basis for their reported antihypertensive effects.
Resolving the mechanism of RXR ligand-dependent NR4A-RXR nuclear receptor heterodimer activation requires a diverse ligand set that includes heterodimer-selective agonists.
