According to this model, cancer cells accumulate genetic mutations over time, and these mutations are passed down to their descendants, leading to genetic diversity within the tumor. Some of these mutations confer selective advantages, causing certain lineages of cancer cells (clones) to dominate and expand. However, this model is rooted in certain conceptual assumptions, which we propose to revisit by considering the potential involvement of retrotransposons in cancer initiation and progression. In recent years, it has become evident that transposable elements, particularly retrotransposons, play a significant role in driving cancer transformation and progression. We first review how current knowledge about retrotransposon activity aligns with the clonal evolution model by highlighting its ability to modulate cancer cell fitness. We then take a forward-looking perspective to explore additional ways retrotransposons may also influence clonal dynamics beyond the current model.</p>","PeriodicalId":9264,"journal":{"name":"BioEssays","volume":" ","pages":"e70078"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145249852","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Traditional gene perturbation methods have advanced gene function studies but are limited by slow kinetics, potential irreversibility, and lethality when targeting essential genes. To overcome these limitations, tag-based and antibody-based direct protein degradation technologies have been developed. These direct protein degradation systems utilize endogenous protein degradation pathways to achieve rapid and reversible protein depletion. When combined with genome editing, these systems provide precise temporal-and in some cases, spatial-control over endogenous protein expression. In this review, we will discuss the current status of tag-based and antibody-based direct protein degron technologies.

This dual role challenges neuron-centric frameworks that have dominated sleep and circadian biology and highlights astrocytes as potential integrators of internal temporal information. Experimental evidence shows that astrocytic calcium dynamics correlate with sleep state and that manipulating astrocytes can alter sleep architecture and homeostasis. In parallel, key aspects of circadian timekeeping can be autonomously driven by astrocytic clocks, with pulses of rhythmic GABA and glutamate able to synchronize circadian circuits and support circadian patterns of behavior. These findings are coherent with the idea that astrocytes can act as context-dependent integrators to convey environmental cues and internal states to neuronal circuitries and promote adaptive behavior. Incorporating astrocytes into conceptual models of the sleep-wake cycle may help reconcile contradictory findings and offer new frameworks to better understand how salient internal temporal representations are encoded within the brain.</p>","PeriodicalId":9264,"journal":{"name":"BioEssays","volume":" ","pages":"e70077"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145191139","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Traditionally attributed to bacterial and mitochondrial origins, these peptides are now proposed to arise from an additional, stress-inducible source within the eukaryotic cytosol. Recent findings suggest that under specific stress conditions, eukaryotic translation can initiate with formylmethionine (fMet), producing fMet-bearing nascent chains that are processed by the fMet/N-degron and fMet-mediated ribosome quality control (fMet-RQC) pathways. These proteostatic mechanisms may generate short, structurally diverse formyl peptides with the potential to function as endogenous FPR ligands.

We examine how higher-order brain regions interact with brainstem rhythm generators such as the preBötzinger complex, emphasizing a dynamic, state-dependent framework for respiratory regulation. Once considered a reflexive brainstem function, breathing is now recognized as the emergent output of interconnected networks that flexibly adapt rhythm and pattern based on internal state, behavior, and environmental context.
