Dopaminylation of endothelial TPI1 suppresses ferroptotic angiocrine signals to promote lung regeneration over fibrosis

Dopamine Modification of TPI1 Inhibits Ferroptosis Signaling in Vascular Endothelial Cells, Promoting Lung Regeneration and Inhibiting Fibrosis Background The regenerative capability of the lung enables it to restore its original functional tissue after injury. However, if this regenerative process is disrupted, it often leads to maladaptive repair...

Diabetic Retinopathy is a Ceramidopathy Reversible by Anti-Ceramide Immunotherapy

Diabetic Retinopathy as a Ceramide Disease Reversible by Anti-Ceramide Immunotherapy Background Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) is one of the most common metabolic disorders worldwide. Diabetes not only leads to chronic complications in macrovascular and microvascular systems but also imposes significant socio-economic burdens. As a microvascular complic...

A Human Omentum-Specific Mesothelial-Like Stromal Population Inhibits Adipogenesis Through IGFBP2 Secretion

A Human Omentum-Specific Intermesothelial Fibroblast Population Inhibits Adipogenesis by Secreting IGFBP2 Background and Research Objective With the growing prevalence of obesity and metabolic diseases, the plasticity and heterogeneity of adipose tissue have become research hotspots. Different regions of adipose tissue exhibit distinct metabolic ch...

Myocardial Infarction Accelerates the Progression of MASH by Triggering Immunoinflammatory Response and Induction of Periostin

Myocardial Infarction Accelerates the Progression of Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatohepatitis by Inducing Immune Inflammatory Response and Periostin Background and Study Motivation Metabolic-associated steatohepatitis (MASLD, formerly NAFLD) is one of the most common chronic liver diseases worldwide, affecting about 25% of the adult populat...

Dietary Intake and Glutamine-Serine Metabolism Control Pathologic Vascular Stiffness

Research Background Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are one of the leading causes of death worldwide, with vascular remodeling and stiffness being critical indicators that significantly affect disease progression and prognosis. Recent studies have increasingly focused on the role of vascular fibroblasts in vascular stiffness and remodeling. In parti...

The Browning and Mobilization of Subcutaneous White Adipose Tissue Supports Efficient Skin Repair

Browning of Subcutaneous White Adipose Tissue and Skin Repair Efficiency Current scientific research reveals that the participation of various cells is essential in the process of skin repair and regeneration. Among these, adipocytes (fat cells) have attracted attention due to their primary role in energy storage and critical endocrine functions in...

Dysfunctional circadian clock accelerates cancer metastasis by intestinal microbiota triggering accumulation of myeloid-derived suppressor cells

Dysfunctional circadian clock accelerates cancer metastasis by intestinal microbiota triggering accumulation of myeloid-derived suppressor cells

Disruption of Circadian Rhythm Promotes Cancer Metastasis and Myeloid-Derived Suppressor Cell Accumulation Triggered by Intestinal Microbes Academic Background and Research Motivation Cancer metastasis is the leading cause of death for most cancer patients, with colorectal cancer (CRC) drawing significant attention due to its high global incidence ...

Effect of Immunosuppression in Risk of Developing Generalized Symptoms in Ocular Myasthenia Gravis

The Effect of Immunosuppression on the Risk of Generalization in Ocular Myasthenia Gravis Background Ocular Myasthenia Gravis (OMG) is an early and localized manifestation of Myasthenia Gravis (MG), with many patients initially presenting with ocular symptoms such as fatigable ptosis and diplopia. Approximately 85% of MG patients initially exhibit ...

Astaxanthin Rescues Memory Impairments in Rats with Vascular Dementia by Protecting Against Neuronal Death in the Hippocampus

Astaxanthin Protects Hippocampal Neurons Against Memory Impairment Caused by Vascular Dementia in Rats Background Introduction Vascular Dementia (VAD) is a progressive cognitive disorder caused by cerebrovascular disease leading to cognitive decline. Current research shows that chronic cerebral hypoperfusion (CCH) and insufficient blood supply are ...
