ABSTRACT Preeclampsia (PE) is an obstetric disease that is characterized by reduced migration and invasion of placental trophoblast cells. Here, the effects of the E3 ubiquitin ligase UBE3A on the migration and invasion of trophoblast cells were evaluated.

Role for TGF-beta superfamily signaling in telencephalic GABAergic neuron development. [PDF]
Signaling mechanisms mediated by the Transforming Growth Factor-beta (TGF-beta) superfamily regulate a variety of developmental processes. Here we show that components of both bone morphogenetic protein/growth differentiation factor and TGF-beta/activin ...

Liver Steatosis in Induced Hepatocytes From Carriers of Spinal Muscular Atrophy
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Although classically characterized as a motor neuron disease, spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is increasingly recognized as a multisystem disorder. We previously showed hepatocyte‐intrinsic steatosis in SMA, raising the question of whether SMA carriers, who are typically asymptomatic, may also exhibit subclinical hepatic ...

ABSTRACT Pediatric idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (IPAH) refractory to maximal medical therapy is associated with high morbidity and mortality, and therapeutic options remain limited. We describe a 12‐year‐old girl with end‐stage IPAH who developed acute decompensated right heart failure despite triple combination therapy, including high ...

ABSTRACT Nintedanib, a multitargeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor, is approved for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) for its ability to slow lung function decline. This study systematically evaluated the effects of nintedanib across three independent treatment intervention studies in the single‐dose bleomycin (BLEO) mouse model of IPF.

Microporous array organ chips were integrated with commercially available well plates to develop organoid chip platforms, which enable modelling of hepatic physiology and non‐alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) pathogenesis, as well as evaluation of semaglutide therapeutics. ABSTRACT Progressive non‐alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) may culminate
