Dorsomorphin (Compound C): From AMPK to Translation
2026-09-11
Dorsomorphin, also known as Compound C, is more than a conventional AMPK inhibitor. Its reversible ATP-competitive activity and parallel effects on BMP/Smad signaling make it a strategic probe for connecting energy sensing, autophagy regulation, macrophage inflammation, differentiation, and iron metabolism modulation. This article outlines how translational researchers can use the compound to test AMPK-dependent mechanisms while avoiding overinterpretation caused by pathway overlap.

Optimizing hiPSC-Derived Platelet Production
2026-09-08
Yue and colleagues developed an optimized differentiation scheme that combines greater embryoid body input, human platelet lysate, small-molecule substitution of selected cytokines, and enhanced megakaryocyte maturation. The approach produced functional platelets more rapidly and at lower reported cost, while also clarifying which parts of the workflow are supported by direct evidence and which require further validation.

Protease Inhibitor Cocktail: MS-SAFE Workflow
2026-09-07
Protease Inhibitor Cocktail (MS-SAFE, 50X in DMSO) helps limit endogenous proteolysis during cell and tissue protein extraction, with an AEBSF-free formulation intended for MS-oriented workflows. It is not a complete metalloproteinase-control system unless EDTA is added separately, and phosphatase protection should be validated for the specific assay.

N-MYC–eIF4G1 Axis in inv(16) AML
2026-09-07
Peramangalam et al. identify an N-MYC–eIF4G1 survival axis that helps maintain inv(16) acute myeloid leukemia. The study combines transcriptomic analysis, enhancer investigation, functional perturbation, primary leukemia models, and patient-derived xenografts to connect a previously unrecognized MYCN regulatory element with leukemic cell survival.

Abelmoschus Polysaccharides and AMPK in Liver Fibrosis
2026-09-05
The reference study shows that Abelmoschus manihot polysaccharides reduce experimental liver fibrosis by coordinating macrophage polarization, hepatic stellate cell activity, and extracellular matrix remodeling through the AMPK/Nrf2/HO-1 axis. Its use of Compound C as a pathway perturbation strengthens the mechanistic interpretation while also highlighting the need for orthogonal validation of AMPK-dependent effects.
