Targeted SPP1 Inhibition in Tumor-Associated Myeloid Cells
2026-09-04
Kartal et al. developed a macrophage-based phenotypic screen to identify small-molecule modulators that reduce SPP1 expression, then incorporated lead compounds into a TAM-avid polymeric nanoconstruct. The lead formulation suppressed SPP1 in vitro and in vivo and produced tumor remissions in multiple murine models, establishing a practical framework for targeting tumor-promoting myeloid cells.

5-hme-dCTP for DNA Hydroxymethylation Assays
2026-09-02
5-hme-dCTP gives researchers a defined DNA polymerase substrate for building hydroxymethylated controls, testing assay performance, and studying epigenetic DNA modification. Its greatest value is as a workflow-enabling reagent for low-abundance 5hmC measurements, including plant drought response epigenetics, rather than as a stand-alone detector of native DNA marks.
