Clathrin-Mediated Entry of Type III Grass Carp Reovirus
2026-08-15
Wang et al. combined pharmacological inhibition, transmission electron microscopy, and real-time quantitative PCR to define how genotype III grass carp reovirus enters cultured fish cells. Their results identify a dynamin-dependent, clathrin-mediated and endosomal pH-dependent route, while the lack of inhibition by IPA-3 helps exclude Pak1-linked signaling under the tested conditions.

Human SAN-Plexus Assembloids and Pacemaker Maturation
2026-08-12
This study develops human pluripotent stem cell-derived assembloids that combine sinoatrial node, cardiac ganglionated plexus, and atrial-like tissues to model neuro-cardiac control of pacemaker maturation. By pairing functional electrophysiology with human SAN spatial transcriptomics, the authors identify a prosaposin–GPR37 signaling axis that links cardiac neurons to pacemaker development and conduction.

Anlotinib: Preclinical VEGFR2 Inhibition
2026-08-10
The reference study established anlotinib as a highly potent, orally active VEGFR2 inhibitor that suppresses tumor angiogenesis across biochemical, endothelial-cell, ex vivo, and xenograft models. Its central contribution was to connect strong VEGFR2 selectivity with functional inhibition of endothelial migration, tube formation, vascular outgrowth, and tumor-associated microvessels, while also clarifying the limits of direct tumor-cell inhibition.
