AMPK–SQSTM1 Feedback Under Metabolic Stress
2026-10-01
The 2024 Autophagy study identifies a double-positive feedback loop between AMPK and SQSTM1/p62 that jointly activates AMPK and NFE2L2/NRF2 during metabolic stress. Its mechanistic framework links lysosomal acidification, TFEB/TFE3, TAK1, KEAP1 degradation, and antioxidant adaptation, providing a basis for testing stress-signaling dependencies in cancer models.

Propranolol Reprograms Burn-Associated Metabolism
2026-09-27
A phase II randomized trial linked propranolol treatment after severe burns to shifts in adipose-tissue metabolism and a less inflammatory lipid profile. Its integrated metabolomic, lipidomic, and molecular analyses offer mechanistic clues about hypermetabolism, while leaving clinical outcome effects and the pathway-level causes to be tested further.

RNAi Screen Identifies Rab11a-Linked SARS-CoV-2 Release
2026-09-23
Kerr et al. used an arrayed, druggable-genome RNAi screen with two-timepoint viral RNA measurements to identify host factors acting across the SARS-CoV-2 replication and reinfection cycle. The study highlights Rab11a-dependent vesicular transport as a conserved proviral pathway and shows that pharmacological inhibition of CDK9-linked cargo delivery can prevent viral release.
