Intravesical p21 mRNA–LNP Therapy for Bladder Cancer
2026-08-17
The reference study develops chemically modified p21 mRNA-loaded lipid nanoparticles for localized intravesical tumor suppressor replacement in bladder cancer. Its preclinical data connect restoration of nuclear p21 with cell-cycle inhibition, DNA-damage signaling, apoptosis, and tumor suppression while demonstrating bladder-localized expression with limited transient systemic distribution.

ICAA, RIP3, and Cardiac Hypertrophy
2026-08-17
A 2026 Cellular Signalling study identifies receptor-interacting protein kinase 3 (RIP3) as a direct molecular target of isochlorogenic acid A in angiotensin II- and pressure overload-induced cardiac hypertrophy. The work links RIP3 inhibition to reduced CaMKII activation and shows that this remodeling pathway can operate independently of MLKL, offering a mechanistic framework for cardiovascular disease research.

Ibrexafungerp Against Fluconazole-Resistant Candida auris
2026-08-16
Wiederhold and colleagues combined a 54-isolate in vitro susceptibility analysis with a delayed-treatment murine model to test ibrexafungerp against Candida auris. Ibrexafungerp retained activity across the isolate panel and improved outcomes in infected mice, whereas Fluconazole failed against the resistant isolate used for infection.
