Anti-M1R/B6R Antibodies for Orthopoxvirus Protection
2026-09-18
The reference study maps the binding and antiviral properties of monoclonal antibodies against the orthopoxvirus immunogens M1R and B6R, then applies those findings to antibody cocktails and bispecific designs. Its strongest preclinical result was protection in a vaccinia virus mouse model using a VH-CH1 switch region-inserting bispecific format, although translation to human mpox therapy remains to be established.

MSC–NRF2–ATF4 Stress Signaling in Pancreatic Cancer
2026-09-17
A 2026 study shows that Se-methylselenocysteine (MSC) produces phenotype-dependent redox remodeling in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, with KYAT1 expression influencing metabolic responsiveness. The work connects NRF2 and ATF4 activation with ferroptosis-associated changes and provides a framework for studying oxidative stress modulation and therapeutic resistance in pancreatic cancer.

Rice 5hmC Maps Reveal Context-Dependent Drought Control
2026-09-16
A 2025 rice study combined ACE-seq and optimized Tn5mC-seq to produce a single-base resolution map of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC), revealing that this low-abundance mark changes during drought and recovery. The findings associate 5hmC depletion in promoters and accumulation in gene bodies with distinct transcriptional outcomes, positioning genomic context as a key variable in plant drought response epigenetics.
