UBA1, ATG5, and Autophagy in Cardiac Hypertrophy
2026-09-09
Lin and colleagues identify UBA1 as a regulator of pathological cardiac hypertrophy that acts by promoting ATG5 ubiquitination and suppressing autophagy. Their combination of pressure-overload modeling, viral gene perturbation, and mechanistic rescue experiments links ubiquitin-dependent ATG5 loss to cardiac remodeling, fibrosis, oxidative stress, and dysfunction.

PVT VGluT2 Neurons Link Parkinson’s Disease to Depression
2026-09-03
This study identifies VGluT2-positive neurons in the paraventricular thalamic nucleus as a circuit-level driver of depression-related behaviors in paraquat-induced Parkinson’s disease. By combining cell-type-specific chemogenetic manipulation with projection and synaptic analyses, it connects PVT activity to glutamatergic and structural changes in the central amygdaloid nucleus, separating affective pathology from motor dysfunction.

TSSK2 Inhibitors: Pyrimidine SAR and Male Contraception
2026-09-03
Hawkinson and colleagues identified the first sub-100 nM inhibitors reported for most TSSK isoforms by combining a mobility-shift high-throughput screen with pyrimidine and pyrrolopyrimidine medicinal chemistry. The study highlights TSSK1/2 dual inhibition as a rational direction for reversible male contraception while also defining the biochemical evidence and selectivity limitations that must precede cellular and in vivo validation.
