HER2-positive gastric cancer accounts for a substantial proportion of advanced cases and has long been treated with HER2-targeted therapies. While trastuzumab deruxtecan has shown superior activity compared with earlier agents, most patients either fail to respond initially or eventually develop resistance. Tumor heterogeneity, metabolic adaptation, and changes in the tumor microenvironment are believed to play critical roles, yet these processes remain poorly understood in clinical samples. Traditional bulk analyses obscure rare but influential cell populations that may drive resistance. In light of these challenges, a deeper investigation into treatment-induced cellular evolution and resistance mechanisms at single-cell resolution is urgently needed. Researchers from Peking University Cancer Hospital and collaborating institutions report new insights into drug resistance in advanced gastric cancer in a study published on December 19th, 2025, in Precision Clinical Medicine.

Cells rely on biomolecular condensates to coordinate essential biological processes without surrounding membranes. These droplet-like dynamic assemblies control the way in which DNA is turned into proteins, help clear cellular waste to prevent toxicity and disease, and can even suppress cancerous tumors. Because they behave like liquids, able to merge, flow and rapidly exchange their contents, scientists long assumed condensates lacked internal organization and functioned as a simple liquid. A study published in Nature Structural and Molecular Biology on February 2, 2026, overturns this assumption. Scientists at Scripps Research discovered that some condensates are built from intricate networks of thread-like protein filaments. Far from being shapeless droplets, these structures contain a defined internal architecture that is essential for cellular function. The findings suggest new possibilities for therapeutic intervention in diseases such as cancer and neurodegeneration. To understa...

The eukaryotic spliceosome is a multi-megadalton ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complex found in eukaryotic nuclei that catalyzes the removal of introns (non-coding regions) from pre-mRNA and splices exons to form mature mRNA (messenger RNA). Its emergence is now recognized as one of the most pivotal events in eukaryogenesis, coinciding with the transition from prokaryotic to eukaryotic cellular organization. Researchers currently favor the “ retroelement hypothesis ,” which assumes that spliceosomal introns and core spliceosomal components evolved from ancestral group II self-splicing introns that invaded the proto-eukaryotic genome during early eukaryogenesis. This article collates the latest scientific literature on this hypothesis to illustrate how molecular invaders were repurposed to facilitate alternative splicing and proteomic diversification. It synthesizes structural, phylogenetic, and mechanistic evidence, including comparative analyses of group II introns and the spliceosomal cata...

Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) continues to expand its unique drug synthesis capabilities and expertise to advance the scalable manufacturing of safer antidotes to combat exposure to organophosphorus nerve agents (OPNAs) and pesticides. Unlike existing manufacturing processes, SwRI's novel approach avoids cancer-causing compounds during synthesis of oxime antidotes HI-6, Obidoxime and HLö 7. This makes for safer antidotes and supports the kilogram-scale manufacturing needed to sustain a domestic supply of OPNA antidotes for the United States military. End-to-end antidote production in the U.S. also reduces the risk of supply chain disruptions and other pressures that could arise during times of international conflict. Exposure to pesticides and various nerve agents, such as OPNAs, causes an estimated 200,000 deaths worldwide each year. Nerve agents and pesticides disrupt the normal functions of the nervous system, causing a toxic buildup of a neurotransmitter used to activate...

Emerging research suggests reversible RNA editing mechanisms may influence heart disease biology while opening new avenues for biomarkers and next-generation cardiovascular therapies. In a recent mini-review published in the journal Communications Biology, researchers summarize emerging but still evolving evidence exploring potential links between dysregulated post-transcriptional RNA modifications and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. Post-transcriptional RNA modification, specifically adenosine-to-inosine (A-to-I) editing, is a key regulatory mechanism that alters RNA structure and function without changing the underlying DNA sequence. Review findings suggest that RNA editing is not merely a byproduct of cellular activity but appears essential for normal development and cardiovascular homeostasis , noting emerging associations rather than definitive causal relationships between editing and several CVDs, including coronary artery disease (CAD), atherosclerosis, hypertension, and hea...

A feature of pancreatic cancer cells' surroundings determines whether they grow fast or become resistant to chemotherapy, a new study shows. The ability of these cancer cells to adapt quickly and toggle between biological responses makes them more likely to survive and harder to treat, the study authors say. Led by NYU Langone Health researchers, the study reveals a new facet of how pancreatic cancer cells regulate their levels of autophagy, a "self-eating" process in which they break down their own components into nutrients to survive. When turned on, cancer cells focus on surviving, instead of dividing and multiplying, which protects them from chemotherapies designed to attack fast-dividing cells. When autophagy is low, cells multiply faster. Published online Feb. 16 in the journal Cell, the new work shows that a main factor determining whether pancreatic cancer cells increase autophagy levels is their ability to detect the extracellular matrix (ECM), the fibers that ...

Every organism alive today traces its lineage back to a single shared ancestor that lived about four billion years ago. Scientists refer to this organism as the "last universal common ancestor," and it represents the earliest form of life that can currently be examined using established evolutionary methods. Research on this ancient ancestor shows that many features seen in modern life were already in place at that time. Cells already had membranes, and genetic information was stored in DNA. Because these essential traits were already established, scientists seeking to understand how life first took shape must look even further back in time, to evolutionary events that occurred before this shared ancestor existed. Studying Life Before the First Common Ancestor In a study published in the journal Cell Genomics, researchers Aaron Goldman (Oberlin College), Greg Fournier (MIT), and Betül Kaçar (University of Wisconsin-Madison) describe a way to explore that earlier period of ev...

As instigators of immunity, monoclonal antibodies are marvels of modern medicine, lab-made proteins that can treat cancers, autoimmune diseases, and many other conditions. With the market for these therapies forecast to double by 2030, it might seem that the only thing they can't do is grow fast enough. New research from the University of Oklahoma aims to put an end to that limitation, too. In a study published in the journal Communications Engineering, Chongle Pan, an OU professor of computer science and biomedical engineering , and Penghua Wang, a doctoral student in data science and analytics, detail a machine learning model that dramatically accelerates the manufacturing timeline of monoclonal antibodies. In humans, antibodies are produced by white blood cells known as B cells, but in biomanufacturing, the job falls to Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHO), the industry standard for producing therapeutic antibodies. Pan said the process isn't that dissimilar to making beer. In ...
