Targeting the G-quadruplex as a novel strategy for developing antibiotics against hypervirulent drug-resistant Staphylococcus aureus by Maria Sultan, Maria Razzaq, Joohyun Lee, Shreyasi Das, Shrute Kannappan, Vinod Kumar Subramani, Wanki Yoo, Truc Kim, Hye-Ra Lee, Akhilesh K. Chaurasia, Kyeong Kyu Kim

“…NMM exhibited a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of 5 μM against S. aureus USA300, impacting cell division and the cell wall by repressing the expressions of genes in the division cell wall (dcw) gene cluster. …”

The nonlinear cysteine redox dynamics in the i-space: A proteoform-centric theory of redox regulation by James N. Cobley, Panagiotis N. Chatzinikolaou, Cameron A. Schmidt

“…The post-translational redox regulation of protein function by cysteine oxidation controls diverse biological processes, from cell division to death. However, most current site-centric paradigms fail to capture the nonlinear and emergent nature of redox regulation in proteins with multiple cysteines. …”

Impact of trainability on telomere dynamics of pet dogs (Canis lupus familiaris): An explorative study in aging dogs. by Julia Weixlbraun, Durga Chapagain, Jessica Svea Cornils, Steve Smith, Franz Schwarzenberger, Franz Hoelzl

“…Telomeres, essential for maintaining genomic integrity, undergo shortening with each cell division, leading to cellular senescence. Previous studies in humans have linked cognitive and social factors with telomere dynamics but in animals, such associations remain understudied. …”

Single cell suppression profiling of human regulatory T cells by Jonas Nørskov Søndergaard, Janyerkye Tulyeu, David Priest, Shimon Sakaguchi, James B. Wing

“…To overcome this limitation, we here develop ‘single cell suppression profiling of human Tregs’ (scSPOT). scSPOT uses a 52-marker CyTOF panel, a cell division detection algorithm, and a whole PBMC system to assess the effect of Tregs on all other cell types simultaneously. …”

Microscopic origin of the spatial and temporal precision in biological systems by Anupam Mondal, Anatoly B. Kolomeisky

“…In cell-size regulation, it is argued that a balance between stochastic cell growth and cell division processes leads to a narrow distribution of cell sizes. …”

The enigma of cancer polyploidy as deciphered by evolutionary cancer cell biology (ECCB) by Vladimir F. Niculescu, Eugenia R. Niculescu

“…The cells lose their stemness and differentiation potential but persist in proliferation as low-grade polyploids (4n) through defective symmetric cell division (DSCD). Genomic integrity can be restored through homotypic cell and nuclear fusion, resulting in the formation of high-grade polyploids known as multinucleated genome repair syncytia, or by inductive hyperpolyploidization of more than 64n, as observed in single-celled polyploid giant cancer cells. …”

CD38 deficiency leads to a defective short-lived transcriptomic response to chronic graft-versus-host disease induction, involving purinergic signaling-related genes and distinct t... by Mercedes Zubiaur, Laura C. Terrón-Camero, Fernando Gordillo-González, Eduardo Andrés-León, Alicia Barroso-del Jesús, Luz María Canet-Antequera, María M. Pérez Sánchez-Cañete, África Martínez-Blanco, Marilú Domínguez-Pantoja, María Botia-Sánchez, Sonia Pérez-Cabrera, Nerea Bello-Iglesias, Antonio Alcina, Ana-Clara Abadía-Molina, Fuencisla Matesanz, Esther Zumaquero, Ramón Merino, Jaime Sancho

“…We have also shown evidence of a distinct enrichment in pathways signatures that define processes such as Ca2+ ion homeostasis, cell division, phagosome, autophagy, senescence, cytokine/cytokine receptor interactions, Th17 and Th1/Th2 cell differentiation in Cd38-/- versus WT samples, which reflected the milder inflammatory and autoimmune response elicited in Cd38-/- mice relative to WT counterparts in response to the allogeneic challenge. …”
