H2S Persulfidation and Ferroptosis in NSCLC
2026-09-15
A 2024 Molecular Cell study identifies hydrogen sulfide-mediated persulfidation of S-adenosyl homocysteine hydrolase as a metabolic mechanism that sensitizes non-small cell lung cancer cells to ferroptosis. The work connects reduced SAHH activity with lower homocysteine, cysteine, and glutathione availability, especially under cystine-depleted conditions, providing a rationale for combining hydrogen sulfide biology with ferroptosis-based treatment strategies.

TSPAN18–STIM1 Axis in Prostate Cancer Bone Metastasis
2026-09-15
Zhou et al. identify a previously unrecognized mechanism in which TSPAN18 stabilizes STIM1 by limiting TRIM32-mediated ubiquitination, thereby enhancing store-operated calcium entry and prostate cancer bone metastasis. The study connects protein turnover, calcium signaling, metastatic behavior, and clinical disease features, while providing a framework for testing pathway dependency in mechanistic prostate cancer research.

Phenothiazines Activate Macrophage Antibacterial Defense
2026-09-11
The 2025 Frontiers in Immunology study identifies phenothiazines as host-directed agents that strengthen macrophage control of intracellular bacteria through coordinated ROS accumulation, lysosomal activation, and autophagy. Its inhibitor and scavenger experiments support a causal role for these host pathways, while the in vivo perphenazine findings provide an initial bridge from cell models to Salmonella Typhimurium infection.
