Nonselective β-Blockers Delay HCT Hematopoietic Recovery
2026-09-01
The reference study identifies broad β-adrenergic blockade as a modifiable factor that can impair hematopoietic regeneration after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). Mouse experiments and retrospective human cohorts linked carvedilol-class exposure to delayed platelet engraftment and poorer survival, particularly when posttransplant chemotherapy was used for graft-versus-host disease prophylaxis.

Machine Learning Discovery of New Senolytics
2026-08-31
The reference study shows that machine-learning models trained only on published senolytic data can prioritize active compounds despite small and heterogeneous datasets. Computational screening followed by human-cell validation identified ginkgetin, periplocin, and oleandrin, demonstrating a cost-efficient route for early senolytic discovery.

N-Glycosylation, MerTK, and HCC Tumor Growth
2026-08-31
The reference study identifies N-glycosylation at MerTK Asn294 and Asn454 as a stabilizing mechanism that supports hepatocellular carcinoma growth, metabolic fitness, and stress survival. Its findings connect MerTK protein quality control with reactive oxygen species, oxidative phosphorylation, and tumor prognosis, while providing a rationale for testing glycosylation-directed interventions.

USP11 and Female Susceptibility in Cushing’s Disease
2026-08-30
A 2025 study identifies the deubiquitinating enzyme USP11 as a sex-associated susceptibility factor in ACTH-secreting pituitary neuroendocrine tumors. Its data connect elevated USP11 in female tumors with TPIT stabilization, increased POMC transcription, and ACTH secretion, while also offering an initial basis for inhibitor discovery.

Machine Learning Discovery of Senolytics
2026-08-27
Smer-Barreto et al. used cost-effective machine learning trained exclusively on published data to prioritize senolytic candidates despite sparse and heterogeneous evidence. Computational screening followed by human-cell validation identified ginkgetin, periplocin, and oleandrin, illustrating how data-driven prioritization can reduce early drug-discovery costs without replacing experimental confirmation.
