ML365 and Hippocampal NLRP3 in Aged Mice
2026-09-15
A 2024 Brain Research study reports that ML365 pretreatment improves postoperative cognitive impairment in aged mice while reducing hippocampal NLRP3 inflammasome signaling, pathological injury, and plasma malondialdehyde. The work provides a preclinical bridge between two-pore-domain potassium channel pharmacology and postoperative neuroinflammation, while leaving direct TASK1 target engagement and translational efficacy to future studies.

EZ Cap™ OVA mRNA: Specs, Uses & Workflow
2026-09-14
EZ Cap™ OVA mRNA is a 1,416-nucleotide, poly(A)-tailed Ovalbumin mRNA designed for immunology, gene expression studies, and vaccine development research. Its Cap 1 structure and reported 90–99% capping efficiency support controlled expression, but delivery conditions still determine cellular uptake and immune outcomes.

RNAi Screen Identifies SARS-CoV-2 Release Factors
2026-09-14
Kerr et al. designed an arrayed, druggable-genome RNAi screen that measures SARS-CoV-2 production at multiple stages, addressing the early-replication bias of many host-factor studies. The work identifies Rab11a-linked vesicular transport as a conserved proviral pathway and shows that pharmacological CDK9 inhibition can suppress viral release, supporting further investigation of host-directed antiviral mechanisms.

Fungal IAA, DOPE, and Ferroptotic Conidial Death
2026-09-13
The 2026 Molecular Plant Pathology study shows that Magnaporthe oryzae-derived indole-3-acetic acid promotes iron accumulation, lipid peroxidation, and ferroptotic death in developing conidia. Mutant and phosphatidylethanolamine-rescue experiments connect IAA-dependent lipid metabolism with appressorium formation and rice blast pathogenicity, while also implicating autophagy through ATG8 regulation.

Predictive siRNA Codelivery with Netarsudil
2026-09-11
Slaughter et al. developed a quantitative screening and machine-learning framework to predict which ionizable drugs can complex siRNA and support nanoparticle encapsulation. Netarsudil (AR-13324) emerged as a high-performing candidate and enabled CTGF siRNA delivery in fibrotic human trabecular meshwork cells, linking drug chemistry with a measurable cytoskeletal phenotype.

Angiotensin I: From RAS Precursor to Assay Control
2026-09-09
Angiotensin I is more than an intermediate in the renin-angiotensin system: it is a controllable substrate for dissecting peptide conversion, receptor biology, and antihypertensive drug screening. This guide explains how A1006 supports rigorous cardiovascular, neuroendocrine, and cross-domain assay design while defining what recent spike–receptor research does—and does not—show.
