KDM3A and KDM3B Regulate Alternative Splicing in Mouse Pluripotent Stem Cells
[iScience] Scientists uncovered a surprising role for the KDM3 proteins in post-transcriptional regulation of mESCs. Proteomic analysis shows KDM3A and KDM3B interacting with RNA processing factors such as EFTUD2 and PRMT5.

FoxO1-zDHHC4-CD36 S-Acylation Axis Drives Metabolic Dysfunction in Diabetes
[Circulation Research] Type 2 diabetes increased cardiac CD36 S-acylation, CD36 sarcolemmal localization, fatty acid oxidation rates, and triglyceride storage in the diabetic heart.

SENP2-Mediated Desumoylation of NCOA4 Protects against Ferritinophagy-Dependent Ferroptosis in Myocardial Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury
[Autophagy] Researchers found that SENP2 expression decreased following myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury. Deletion of SENP2 increased cardiomyocyte ferroptosis and hindered cardiac function recovery after myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury.

Effects of Bisphenol A and Retinoic Acid Exposure on Neuron and Brain Formation: a Study in Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells and Zebrafish Embryos
[Environmental Health Perspectives] The authors used hiPSCs and zebrafish embryos to investigate whether co-exposure to bisphenol A and exogenous retinoic acid (RA) can potentiate HOX gene expression and exert pleiotropic effects on RA signaling.
IPS HEART Granted Orphan Drug Designation in the EU for Becker Muscular Dystrophy
[IPS Heart (Businesswire)] IPS HEART has been awarded orphan drug designation in the EU by the European Medicines Agency for GIVI-MPCs unique ability to create new muscle with 100% full length dystrophin in Becker Muscular Dystrophy.
Proteogenomic Reprogramming to a Functional Human Blastomere-Like Stem Cell State via a PARP-DUX4 Regulatory Axis
[Cell Reports] Investigators showed that conventional hPSCs cultured with non-specific tankyrase-PARP1-inhibited conditions underwent proteogenomic reprogramming to functional blastomere-like tankyrase/PARP inhibitor-regulated naive stem cells.
