Endothelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition in the fetoplacental macrovasculature and microvasculature in pregnancies complicated by gestational diabetes

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Transforming growth factor (TGF)‐β2 and interleukin (IL)‐1β induced morphological and molecular changes consistent with endothelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EndMT) in HUVECs isolated from both pregnancies complicated by gestational diabetes (GDM) and non‐GDM pregnancies.

Computational modelling of cardiac fibroblast signalling reveals a key role for Ca2+ in driving atrial fibrillation‐associated fibrosis

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend A pre‐existing fibroblast signalling model was enhanced by integrating atrial‐specific components and reactions linked to atrial fibrosis and atrial fibrillation (AF). The analysis highlights the central role of Ca2⁺ signalling in driving profibrotic responses to AF‐relevant stimuli, angiotensin‐II and transforming growth factor ...

NSAID ingestion augments training‐induced muscle hypertrophy and differentially affects muscle mRNA expression, but not strength gains, in trained men

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Schematic outlining the impact of NSAID ingestion on resistance exercise training‐induced changes in muscle morphology, function and gene networks relative to placebo ingestion in trained males. Abstract Non‐steroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are widely overused in sports.

Activin A, a Novel Chemokine, Induces Mouse NK Cell Migration via AKT and Calcium Signaling

Cells
Natural killer (NK) cells can migrate quickly to the tumor site to exert cytotoxic effects on tumors, and some chemokines, including CXCL8, CXCL10 or and CXCL12, can regulate the migration of NK cells.

A review of xenobiotic membrane transporter expression within the human placenta: Lessons gained from primary tissue and in vitro methodologies

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend A summary of the current knowledge around membrane transporter expression in the most widely used in vitro models of human trophoblasts, including primary placental tissue, cancer cell lines and trophoblast stem cells, as well as the techniques to attempt to mimic the human placenta in vivo.

Activin and Hepatocyte Growth Factor Promotes Colorectal Cancer Stemness and Metastasis through FOXM1/SOX2/CXCR4 Signaling

Gut and Liver
Background/Aims: Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are believed to drive tumor development and metastasis. Activin and hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) are important cytokines with the ability to induce cancer stemness.

Population Pharmacokinetics and Exposure–Response Analyses of Momelotinib, Its Active Metabolite (M21), and Total Active Moiety in Myelofibrosis

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, Volume 119, Issue 3, Page 629-640, March 2026.
Momelotinib, a Janus kinase (JAK) 1/JAK2/activin A receptor type 1 inhibitor, is approved for the treatment of myelofibrosis with anemia. These analyses characterized the population pharmacokinetics of momelotinib and its active metabolite M21 following administration of the commercial tablet formulation in patients with myelofibrosis from phase II/III

Preventing Differentiation Towards Primitive Macrophages in Stem Cells With Down Syndrome

Immunology, Volume 177, Issue 3, Page 596-612, March 2026.
Decreased fetal brain macrophages were previously reported in Ts1Cje mice, a model of Down syndrome (DS). We confirmed the reduction in primitive macrophages, brain macrophage precursors, using Ts1Cje‐derived mouse embryonic stem cells (Ts1Cje‐mESCs) and human induced pluripotent stem cells with trisomy 21 (Tri21‐hiPSCs), with in vivo validation ...

Xwnt-5A: a maternal Wnt that affects morphogenetic movements after overexpression in embryos of Xenopus laevis [PDF]

, 1993
To contribute to an understanding of the roles and mechanisms of action of Wnts in early vertebrate development, we have characterized the normal expression of Xenopus laevis Wnt-5A, and investigated the consequences of misexpression of this putative ...
