ABSTRACT The rational design of hybrid nanomaterials with precisely controlled properties remains a central challenge in materials science. While atomically precise gold nanoclusters (Au‐NCs) offer molecule‐like control over a metallic core, tuning their optoelectronic behavior via surface engineering is often empirically driven.

Abstract Scientists have been captivated by the ability to regenerate, focusing on uncovering the mechanisms of epimorphic regeneration and applying them to human medicine. The axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum) has become the most intensively studied model in tetrapod regeneration research, particularly concerning limb regeneration.

In COPD, extracellular matrix and elastin degradation increase elastin‐derived peptides (EDPs), which are associated with TLR4/NF‐κB activation, DKK1 upregulation, reduced β‐catenin signaling, and impaired AT2‐to‐AT1 differentiation. Neutralization of EDPs by TB partially restores β‐catenin‐associated alveolar epithelial differentiation and attenuates ...

The disruption of proteostasis, encompassing the ubiquitin–proteasome system, autophagy, UPR/ER stress, and chaperone function, represents a fundamental mechanism shared by both cancer and cardiovascular diseases. While these pathways frequently facilitate tumor progression, they are crucial for maintaining proteostasis in cardiac tissue. Consequently,

Abstract Catecholamines are classically viewed as neuronal transmitters and adrenal hormones; however, accumulating evidence demonstrates that sources other than nerve fibres and adrenal medulla play a fundamental role in local organ regulation. Physiological paradoxes, such as preserved organ function after denervation or transplantation, challenge a ...

Physiological Basis of Sex Differences in Human Performance and Exercise‐Associated Pathology
ABSTRACT The presence of sex differences in human physical performance is well‐established and shaped by distinct endocrine, anatomical and physiological mechanisms. Despite sustained advances, our understanding of how inherent biological factors drive variations in exercise capacity and related pathologies is still developing.

ABSTRACT Myocardial fibrosis (MF) is a critical pathological substrate of heart failure (HF), and β3‐adrenergic receptor (β3‐AR) has been implicated in cardiac remodelling with controversial roles. This study aimed to clarify the pro‐fibrotic mechanism of β3‐AR in cardiac fibroblasts and its association with β‐arrestin2‐mediated biased activation ...

The estrogen deficiency in the hippocampus influences cognitive functions and control of food intake. Hippocampi of female rats, either control or ovariectomized, with or without estrogen replacement, were submitted to LC–MS/MS and analysis of pathway‐based functional roles of proteins affected by estrogen deficiency and replacement.

Myxomatous mitral valve disease, an acquired valvular degeneration, is the most common cardiac disorder in dogs, affecting approximately 10% of dogs in primary care veterinary practice. Dogs with myxomatous mitral valve disease frequently require anaesthesia for routine procedures.

Catecholamines Activate a Tumour Progression Program in Differentiated Tumour Hepatocytes
ABSTRACT Background and Aims The sympathetic nervous system is involved in the progression and aggressiveness of several cancers, including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the specific effects of sympathetic innervation and catecholamines on tumour hepatocyte behaviour remain poorly understood.
