Development and validation of an LC-MS/MS method for the quantification of the KRASG12C inhibitor divarasib.

Divarasib is a newly developed covalent KRASG12C inhibitor, currently under clinical investigation in a phase 3 trial in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). At the moment, very limited pharmacokinetic data are publicly known. However, obtaining more insight into the pharmacokinetic properties of divarasib is important, since this may provide a better understanding of its efficacy and safety risks. Pre-clinical studies have been performed in mouse models to evaluate the effect of drug transporters and drug-metabolizing enzymes on the plasma exposure and tissue distribution of divarasib. Therefore, a reliable quantification method is required. To our knowledge, no bioanalytical assay of divarasib has been published yet. Therefore, in this study we developed and validated an assay to quantify divarasib in human plasma and in eight different mouse-related matrices, and partially in mouse plasma, using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). The method was initially evaluated over a concentration range of 1-10,000 nM. However, due to carry-over observed at 10,000 nM, the validated calibration range was established at 1-2000 nM, with matrix-dependent LLOQs of 1-10 nM. Erlotinib was used as an internal standard and acetonitrile was utilized to perform protein precipitation as sample pretreatment. Divarasib demonstrated stability in human plasma and in mouse plasma and tissue homogenates under various experimental conditions. A pilot in vivo study showed the applicability of our validated LC-MS/MS method. Ongoing clinical trials may collect plasma samples, and this developed method enables quantification of divarasib in both mouse and human plasma samples.

The Homozygous p.(Arg215Ter) Variant in XRCC2 Is Associated With Atypical Fanconi Anemia Without Major Hematological Abnormalities in Childhood.

Fanconi Anemia (FA) is the most frequent inherited bone marrow failure syndrome. A role for the XRCC2 gene in FA was suspected in 2012 and confirmed in 2016, but only two affected individuals have been described thus far, and no long-term follow-up is available. Here we present two young related adults born to consanguineous parents, in whom we identified the homozygous p.(Arg215Ter) variant in XRCC2. Both patients presented with mild intellectual disability, microcephaly, distinctive facial features, short stature, thumb abnormalities, and abnormal skin pigmentation. Unlike in FA, DEB test resulted negative in peripheral blood during childhood and no cytopenia, clonal evolution, or other hematological complications were detected until the age of 19 and 20 years, respectively. Our report suggests that the homozygous p.(Arg215Ter) variant in XRRC2 causes a distinctive FA-like disorder, characterized by the typical physical characteristics seen in FA, but a lack of major hematological manifestations in childhood, and the presence of a more pronounced neurodevelopmental phenotype than that seen in FA.

Cross-species variant-to-function analyses implicate MEIS1 in conferring sleep abnormalities and impaired cerebellar development.

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified numerous loci for insomnia, yet functional validation of effector genes remains limited because most risk variants lie in noncoding regions, and the true causal gene is not known. Here, we use prior human cell-based variant-to-gene mapping to nominate six insomnia effector genes and test them in zebrafish, a tractable diurnal vertebrate model well suited for sleep phenotyping. Our CRISPR-based behavioral screening identifies the MEIS1 ortholog, meis1b, as a regulator of sleep maintenance, with crispants displaying impaired nighttime-specific sleep maintenance and increased sleep latency. Comparative chromatin analyses reveal conserved regulatory architecture spanning the human insomnia-associated locus and selectively implicate meis1b, whereas the duplicated ohnolog meis1a was dispensable. Developmental profiling further shows that meis1b is expressed in cerebellar granule progenitors, paralleling human MEIS1 expression, and that its disruption impairs cerebellar development. Together, these findings establish zebrafish as an efficient vertebrate platform for functional interrogation of GWAS candidates and support an evolutionarily conserved cerebellar role for MEIS1 in sleep maintenance.

Translational reprogramming of TGF-β signaling via TRMT61A-mediated tRNA m1A drives prostatic fibrosis and hyperplasia.

Dysregulation of the epitranscriptomic landscape is closely linked to pathological proliferation, but its specific role in benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) remains unclear. Here, we identify the tRNA methyltransferase TRMT61A as a critical driver of BPH progression. We found that TRMT61A and global N1-methyladenosine (m1A) levels are aberrantly upregulated in human BPH tissues. Functionally, TRMT61A knockdown potently suppresses prostate cell proliferation and reduces stromal fibrosis, inducing G1 cell cycle arrest and reversing pathological remodeling both in vitro and in vivo. By integrating ribosome profiling (Ribo-seq) and tRNA-seq, we observed that TRMT61A drives translational reprogramming. TRMT61A preserves the stability of specific tRNA isoacceptors (e.g., tRNA-Leu-CAA), which is required for the efficient decoding of mRNAs containing m1A-dependent codons. Consequently, TRMT61A selectively promotes the translational elongation of the key receptor TGFβR1. This amplifies downstream TGF-β/SMAD signaling and drives epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) without affecting mRNA transcription. In summary, our study reveals how TRMT61A drives BPH progression through TGFβR1 translation, highlighting the therapeutic potential of targeting epitranscriptomic pathways to reverse prostatic hyperplasia and fibrosis.

Targeted sequencing reveals a distinct genetic alteration landscape in oral multiple primary squamous cell carcinomas.

OBJECTIVE: Oral multiple primary cancers (MPCs) are associated with poor clinical outcomes, yet their genomic characteristics remain insufficiently understood. DESIGN: Fifty-four formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tumor samples from 30 patients with oral MPCs were analyzed using high-depth targeted sequencing of a customized 14-gene panel derived from prior whole-exome sequencing data. Detected alterations were analyzed after removal of synonymous mutations. RESULTS: Non-silent genomic alterations were identified in 59.3% (32/54) of samples, involving 19 patients. A total of 70 variant loci across 13 genes were detected. AKAP13 was the most frequently mutated gene at both the sample (22.2%, 12/54), with recurrent mutations observed across multiple patients. In contrast, TP53 mutations occurred at a substantially lower frequency (11.1%, 6/54). Marked inter- and intra-patient mutational heterogeneity was observed. CONCLUSIONS: FFPE-based targeted sequencing enabled an initial characterization of genomic alterations in oral MPCs. Recurrent alterations in AKAP13, GLI2, JMJD1C, and DNAH8, together with the relatively low frequency of TP53 alterations, identify candidate genomic features for further investigation and provide a basis for future studies of the molecular basis of oral MPCs.

A multicenter randomized phase II/III trial of salvage treatment for refractory primary central nervous system lymphoma using tirabrutinib: JCOG2314 (ReSTART).

Primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) is an aggressive malignancy. Patients refractory to high-dose methotrexate-based induction therapy have an extremely poor prognosis. Although whole-brain radiotherapy (WBRT) is the standard salvage treatment and provides potent tumor control, early functional deterioration and late neurocognitive toxicity remain major concerns. A phase I/II trial on relapsed or refractory PCNSL demonstrated favorable efficacy and tolerability of tirabrutinib, a second-generation selective Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibitor. Tirabrutinib's oral administration has enabled outpatient management. However, its clinical value for induction-refractory PCNSL remains uncertain. We designed a multicenter, randomized phase II/III trial (JCOG2314) to assess the non-inferiority of tirabrutinib to WBRT in overall survival and its potential to reduce functional deterioration and cognitive impairment. A total of 94 patients from 49 institutions will be enrolled over 4 years. The trial has been registered in the Japan Registry of Clinical Trials (study number: jRCT1031250645).

Morbidity and mortality from local anesthetics: localized and systemic toxicity.

PURPOSE OF THE REVIEW: Local anesthetics remain vital to modern medicine, yet their narrow therapeutic window continues to result in complications. This review synthesizes recent literature to define the current landscape of local anesthetic-associated adverse events. RECENT FINDINGS: Perioperative mortality attributable to local anesthetics persists despite sustained safety initiatives and professional society recommendations. Pharmacovigilance and case data identify lidocaine (oropharyngeal, topical, and via local infiltration) as the predominant contributor to adverse outcomes, including death. Local anesthetic systemic toxicity remains an issue, with a recent shift in epidemiology: an increasing proportion of toxic events originates from surgeon- and proceduralist-administered analgesia. Anesthesiologist-controlled methods also cause toxicity via catheter-based delivery and nerve blocks in highly vascular regions. Localized toxicity in the form of high neuraxial contributes to morbidity, with recent reviews reinforcing known risk factors; whereas localized neurotoxicity appears less troublesome when managed appropriately. SUMMARY: The cumulative evidence identifies shifts in the patterns of systemic and localized toxicities. Bupivacaine-based peripheral nerve blocks no longer represent the principal cause of complications because of the advent of ultrasound guidance and lipid emulsion therapy. In contrast, high neuraxial techniques persist as a cause of morbidity, accompanied by intravenous/oropharyngeal lidocaine, proceduralist-administered local infiltration analgesia, and catheter-based delivery.

CAR-T Cell Therapy: Manufacturing Platforms and Clinical Consequences.

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy has transformed hematological cancer care, yet variability in efficacy, durability, and safety cannot be explained solely by antigen selection or patient factors. We propose that manufacturing platforms are active biological determinants of outcome. Viral vectors, used in all licensed products, provide stable genomic integration and durable expression but are limited by cost, cargo capacity, and centralized production. Nonviral strategies, including transposons, CRISPR knock-ins, and messenger RNA delivery, enable faster, less-expensive manufacturing with larger payloads, while introducing distinct safety and persistence profiles. This review presents a three-layer mechanistic framework that reframes manufacturing as biology: integration biology determines genomic risk and transgene stability; clonal fitness shapes persistence, dominance, and exhaustion; and epigenomic imprinting, influenced by gene transfer method, cytokines, and culture stress, preconfigures functional trajectories. Clinical observations link platform choice to immune recovery, where prolonged B-cell aplasia and delayed T-cell reconstitution contribute to infection-related nonrelapse mortality, and hematopoietic reserve at apheresis emerges as a practical predictor. Finally, manufacturing is positioned as the key to democratizing cell therapy. Decentralized, nonviral production aligned with regulatory standards may enable equitable access and transition CAR-T therapy from innovation to sustainable global care.

Embedding cardiovascular risk assessment into routine BTK inhibitor management in chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

INTRODUCTION: Cardiovascular (CV) toxicities remain a major challenge during Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitor (BTKi) therapy for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Selecting the optimal BTKi based solely on a history of overt CV disease may underestimate underlying cardiovascular vulnerability. AREAS COVERED: We performed a targeted, non-systematic review of PubMed and MEDLINE to examine the association between baseline CV comorbidities and BTKi-related CV toxicities in CLL. Current evidence indicates that preferential use of BTKis with more favorable CV safety profiles, coupled with appropriate cardio-oncology surveillance, reduces the risk of CV adverse events in patients with pre-existing CV disease. In patients without established CV disease, the Systematic Coronary Risk Evaluation 2 (SCORE2) and SCORE2-Older Persons (SCORE2-OP) may help identify clinically meaningful latent CV risk, enabling early optimization of modifiable risk factors in line with the proactive cardiovascular management strategy endorsed by the 2026 European Hematology Association (EHA) CLL guidelines. EXPERT OPINION: A structured, risk-adapted approach integrating standardized CV risk assessment, early management of modifiable risk factors, individualized BTKi selection, and multidisciplinary cardio-oncology collaboration may improve the safety and tolerability of BTKi therapy in CLL. Pending prospective validation, SCORE2 and SCORE2-OP should complement, rather than replace, dedicated cardio-oncology evaluation.

CNOT1 is a potential YTHDF2 target that orchestrates maternal mRNA decay and zygotic genome activation during goat embryogenesis.

Timely and efficient degradation of maternal mRNA is essential for early embryonic development, which occurs from fertilization through the initiation of zygotic genome activation (ZGA). Yet, the regulatory mechanisms governing this process remain poorly characterized. In the present study, we investigated the function of CCR4-NOT transcription complex subunit 1 (CNOT1) during goat embryogenesis. We found that CNOT1 was upregulated during mammalian ZGA, and that its knockdown led to developmental arrest and a marked reduction in blastocyst formation. Moreover, CNOT1 knockdown impaired nascent RNA activity, resulting in 814 upregulated and 1014 downregulated genes, which were enriched for RNA splicing, regulation of chromosome organization, and RNA localization. RNA splicing analysis revealed differential splicing events in 2959 genes, of which 259 were downregulated following CNOT1 knockdown. Notably, CNOT1 was predicted to crosstalk with the m6A reader YTHDF2. Knockdown of YTHDF2 resulted in CNOT1 downregulation at the 8-cell stage in goats and increased transcription levels around polyadenylation sites during ZGA in mice. Together, these findings indicate that CNOT1 is a potential YTHDF2 target that orchestrates maternal mRNA decay and ZGA during goat embryogenesis. Our work provides new insight into the complex regulatory landscape underlying ZGA and may inform strategies to improve the efficiency of goat embryogenesis.

Workplace Safety Champions: Strengthening safety culture through nurse engagement.

Workplace violence is a growing concern in health care, disproportionately affecting frontline nurses and nursing assistants. Despite high prevalence, underreporting remains a barrier to effective prevention and response. This article describes the development, implementation, and outcomes of a Workplace Safety Champion program designed to increase reporting of violent incidents and strengthen a culture of safety. A multidisciplinary task force developed an evidence-based Workplace Safety Champion course that emphasizes de-escalation strategies, reporting processes, and staff support. Champions were appointed across inpatient and emergency units and integrated into a hospital-wide Workplace Safety Champion Council. Program evaluation used course completion data and posttraining surveys. The organizational goal of having at least one trained champion in 90% of inpatient and emergency units was exceeded, with 98% of units represented (N = 93 champions). More than 85% of learners reported intent to change their response to workplace violence, and 90% endorsed improved knowledge of resources and de-escalation strategies. The Workplace Safety Champion program successfully improved staff awareness, reporting, and engagement in workplace violence prevention. Embedding champions across units can serve as a sustainable strategy to strengthen safety culture and support frontline health care workers.

Genome-wide identification and expression analysis of the CREB/ATF family and its potential role in melanogenesis in the Manila clam (Ruditapes philippinarum).

Ruditapes philippinarum is an economically important bivalve species in China, and shell color is a trait of ecological and commercial significance. Melanin is a key determinant of shell color, and members of the CREB/ATF family have been reported to participate in melanogenesis in other organisms. In this study, members of the CREB/ATF family were systematically identified at the whole-genome level based on genomic and transcriptomic datasets, followed by analyses of their phylogenetic relationships, gene structures, and expression patterns. A total of six CREB/ATF family members were identified and classified into five subfamilies. Expression profiling and RT-qPCR validation revealed that most CREB/ATF genes were highly expressed in the mantle and displayed clear differences among shell-color phenotypes. Except for RpATF4 and RpCREBZF, most members exhibited relatively high expression levels in dark-colored shell strains, particularly in black and zebra-striped clams. Moreover, most genes showed low expression during early embryonic and larval stages but increased expression at the single-siphon spat and juvenile stages. These results suggest that the CREB/ATF family may be involved in melanin-associated shell-color regulation in R. philippinarum, providing important candidate genes and a theoretical basis for further elucidating the molecular mechanisms of shell-color formation in mollusks.

Toxicological effects of propyl 4-hydroxybenzoate on gallstone pathogenesis: An integrated mendelian randomization, network toxicology, and experimental study.

BACKGROUND: Gallstone disease is a prevalent digestive disorder with substantial global socioeconomic burden. Propyl 4-hydroxybenzoate (PP), a widely used paraben preservative, exhibits potential metabolic and hepatic toxicity, yet its role in gallstone pathogenesis remains unclear. This study aimed to explore the causal association between PP exposure and gallstone formation and the underlying mechanism. METHODS: Two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) was performed using genome-wide association study (GWAS) data. Network toxicology, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics simulation were applied to screen for core targets. In vivo experiments, transcriptome sequencing, Western blot (WB), and ELISA were conducted for mechanistic validation. RESULTS: MR confirmed a causal link between circulating PP levels and an elevated risk of gallstones (P < 0.05), with AKT1 identified as the key target. In mice, PP aggravated gallstone formation by activating the AKT1-NF-κB-CXCL1 pathway, enhancing hepatic inflammation and neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) formation; these effects were reversed by AKT inhibition. CONCLUSION: PP promotes gallstone formation via the AKT1-NF-κB-CXCL1-NETs axis. Our findings highlight PP as an environmental risk factor for gallstones, providing novel insights into their prevention and targeted therapy.

Context matters: coordinated transcriptional regulation and root plasticity under multinutrient conditions.

Plants often encounter simultaneous imbalances in multiple nutrients, but the regulatory logic coordinating their responses remains poorly understood. We aimed to uncover shared transcriptional programs and regulatory nodes underpinning multinutrient adaptation in Arabidopsis thaliana roots. We analyzed publicly available RNA-seq datasets spanning 15 nutrient and beneficial element conditions using differential expression, co-expression network (WGCNA), and gene regulatory network analysis. Selected transcription factors (TFs) were validated via root phenotyping, suberin staining, and ionomic profiling under two-nutrient stress conditions. We identified a core set of 2050 genes responsive to multiple nutrient treatments, enriched for suberin biosynthesis, and structured into modular co-expression clusters. Eight prioritized candidate TFs (ARR10, GBF3, HHO5, NAC32, NF-YA3, NF-YB2, SARD1, and WRKY33) were shown to modulate root system architecture under specific nutrient combinations. WRKY33 and NF-YB2, in particular, regulated nutrient-responsive suberin deposition and ionomic plasticity. These findings reveal suberin remodeling as a shared downstream process in multinutrient responses and suggest that plasticity is not a fixed trait but a modular, polygenic, and context-dependent outcome. Repurposed TFs with pleiotropic functions coordinate structural and physiological traits, providing regulatory entry points for improving nutrient resilience.

Repeated scoring with the adult appendicitis score improves the sensitivity and the specificity of appendicitis diagnosis in patients with early equivocal signs of appendicitis: a secondary analysis.

PURPOSE: The utilization of computed tomography in the early stage of acute appendicitis may result in overdiagnosis and unnecessarily expose patients to ionising radiation. The Adult Appendicitis Score (AAS) can be used to select patients for imaging. Observation and re-scoring in the DIAMOND trial reduced the need for imaging. Now, we wanted to determine if the change in AAS (∆AAS) can serve as a diagnostic tool to select patients for imaging even more precisely. METHODS: Eighty-eight patients with early equivocal appendicitis participated in the observation arm of the DIAMOND trial. The data for these patients were reanalysed, and ∆AAS during the observation was calculated. The baseline AAS, final AAS, and the change in C-reactive protein (∆CRP) were selected as reference standards. RESULTS: Eighty-three patients with complete data were included in the analysis. The AUROC (Area Under the Receiver Operating Characteristic) values are as follows: ∆AAS, 0.932 (95% CI 0.868-0.996); baseline AAS, 0.629 (95% CI 0.498-0.760); final AAS, 0.936 (95% CI 0.886-0.987); and ∆CRP, 0.796 (95% CI 0.696-0.897). Using receiver operating characteristic curves, we established the thresholds for low (AAS ≤ -2), intermediate (AAS -1 to 0), and high (AAS ≥ 1) probability of appendicitis. The negative predictive value for the low-probability group and the positive predictive value for the high-probability group concerning acute appendicitis were 97% and 94%, respectively. CONCLUSION: Patients with equivocal signs of appendicitis may benefit from short observation and the calculation of ∆AAS to reduce overdiagnosis and exposure to excessive imaging. REGISTRATION: The DIAMOND trial was officially registered on ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT02742402) on April 13, 2016.

The HOXA gene cluster: a critical regulator in bone-related disorders.

BACKGROUND: Skeletal homeostasis relies on the dynamic balance between bone formation and bone resorption. The disruption of this balance acts as the central pathological mechanism of multiple metabolic bone diseases including osteoporosis, and is closely correlated with the progression of various other bone-related disorders. As pivotal transcription factors regulating embryonic development and cell fate, the homeobox A (HOXA) gene family plays an essential role in skeletal physiological and pathological processes. METHODS: This review systematically summarizes recent research advances of the HOXA gene family in bone-related diseases, concludes the evolutionarily conserved regulatory patterns of HOXA members, and clarifies the molecular mechanisms by which HOXA genes mediate bone metabolic disorders and the occurrence as well as development of bone diseases. RESULTS: Accumulating evidence demonstrates that HOXA family members present complex functions and strong heterogeneity in bone-related diseases. They participate in the pathogenesis of bone diseases via three evolutionarily conserved regulatory manners: determining regional patterning, modulating signaling pathways, and integrating epigenetic and non-coding RNA (ncRNA) regulatory networks. CONCLUSION: Further exploring the underlying mechanisms of the HOXA family in bone-related diseases provides novel insights into the pathogenesis of bone disorders. Meanwhile, it also supplies solid theoretical basis and potential therapeutic targets for the development of novel HOXA-targeted therapeutic strategies against bone diseases.

Integrative multi-omics reveals a fibroblast-centered, ZFHX3-prioritized regulatory framework linking sick sinus syndrome and atrial fibrillation.

OBJECTIVE: To define shared genetic and multi-scale mechanisms underlying comorbidity between sick sinus syndrome (SSS) and atrial fibrillation (AF). METHODS: We integrated genome-wide association study (GWAS) summary statistics for SSS and AF with Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) expression and splicing quantitative trait loci (eQTL/sQTL), atrial single-cell and spatial transcriptomics, and epigenomics. We identified trait-relevant tissues and pathways, prioritized shared cell types, quantified genome-wide and local genetic sharing, detected joint loci by cross-trait meta-analysis, and linked loci to regulatory programs via colocalization and cell-prioritized co-expression networks. RESULTS: Both traits showed strongest enrichment in cardiac tissue, especially Heart Atrial Appendage. Fibroblasts from the left atrial appendage were consistently prioritized as the key shared cell population. SSS and AF displayed significant positive genome-wide genetic correlation, with multiple locally shared regions, including six major loci. Cross-trait meta-analysis identified eight joint-phenotype SNPs implicating four susceptibility genes. ZFHX3 was the leading tissue-cell-gene candidate, acting as a hub in fibroblast co-expression modules and colocalizing with cardiac regulatory signals. CONCLUSION: Shared liability for SSS and AF is highly tissue- and cell-specific, converging on regulatory networks in atrial appendage fibroblasts, with ZFHX3 serving as a central mechanistic and biomarker node.

Structural and tissue-specific organisation of endocrine Fgf19 and Fgf21 signalling in rainbow trout.

Endocrine fibroblast growth factors (FGF19 subfamily) play a key role in regulating metabolic homeostasis in vertebrates. However, their functional diversification in salmonids remains poorly understood. In this study, we conducted an integrative characterisation of Fgf19 and Fgf21 signalling in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) by combining phylogenetic, structural and expression analyses. Phylogenetic analyses revealed the conservation of single fgf19 and fgf21 genes, despite the extensive expansion of receptors post-Ss4R (salmonid-specific fourth-round whole genome duplication). Structural modelling and molecular dynamics simulations demonstrated the stable interactions of both ligands to multiple Fgfr isoforms, with receptor-specific energetic profiles and conserved core interaction residues. Tissue expression profiling revealed clear differences from mammalian models, such as predominant hepatic fgf19 expression and the absence of hepatic fgf21 under basal conditions. In addition, there were complex and tissue-dependent distributions of fgfr and klotho transcripts. These findings support a receptor-driven diversification model of endocrine Fgf signalling in salmonids, suggesting enhanced endocrine plasticity associated with the retention of receptors following post-genomic duplication. Taken together, our findings provide new insights into the structural and regulatory organisation of endocrine Fgf signalling, as well as its potential role in metabolic regulation in rainbow trout.
