The Alpha‐1 Pi*MZ Genotype Is an Independent Risk Factor for Hepatocellular Carcinoma Development in Patients With ACLD

Alimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Alpha‐1 antitrypsin deficiency is a genetic disease that affects the lungs and the liver. The role of the heterozygous genetic defect in the development of liver cancer in patients with cirrhosis is unclear. Our study found that carrying the Pi*MZ genotype increases the risk of developing liver cancer.

Evaluation of Urine Exosome Lecithin Cholesterol Acyltransferase as a Biomarker for Diabetes Diagnosis and Dyslipidemia. [PDF]

Diabetes Metab Res Rev
Integrated proteomic and model studies reveal lipid metabolism dysregulation in diabetes, detectable even in prediabetes. LCAT, a key regulator, shows compensatory upregulation during progression. The characteristic dynamics of urine exosome LCAT provide a basis for its use as a non‐invasive biomarker for early diabetic detection and disease monitoring.

Amyloid‐β aggregates induce vasculopathy via ferroptosis in brain endothelial cells

Brain Pathology, EarlyView.
Blood–brain barrier (BBB) disruption is evident in brains with amyloidopathy. In this study, we demonstrate that amyloid β (Aβ) drives abnormal lipid metabolism and lipid droplet formation in brain endothelial cells, leading to lipid peroxidation and ferroptosis.

The relationship between the cannabinoids and cardiac remodelling: A comprehensive review of pivotal mechanisms and emerging evidence

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Cardiac remodelling and fibrosis after myocardial infarction or during chronic diseases, such as arterial and pulmonary hypertension or diabetes mellitus, continue to be the more important prognostic factors in determining survival, and so the search for effective anti‐fibrotic interventions is an important target for research and therapy in cardiology.

Cannabidiol and cannabigerol ameliorate steatotic liver disease via phosphocreatine buffering and lysosomal restoration

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Cannabidiol (CBD) and cannabigerol (CBG) alleviate hepatic steatosis in obese mice by shifting energy buffering towards phosphocreatine and enhancing lysosomal lipid degradation and trafficking. These effects are associated with increased creatine kinase activity and lysobisphosphatidic acid (LBPA) levels, highlighting a previously unrecognised ...

Retinoic Acid Signalling Regulates Zebrafish Tooth Germ Repair Following Injury

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Retinoic acid signalling may regulate the repair processes in a tooth germ injury model using Tg(scpp5:Dendra2‐NTR) zebrafish and the nitroreductase (NTR)/metronidazole (MTZ) system. ABSTRACT Although the role of retinoic acid (RA) signalling in odontogenesis is well established, its involvement in the repair of injured tooth germs remains unclear.

Emerging Role of Ferroptosis in Diabetes and Associated Complications: When Metabolic Dysregulation Meets Cell Death

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
This study identifies ferroptosis as a key driver of diabetes and its complications via iron metabolism and lipid peroxidation, elucidates organelle interactions underlying cell vulnerability, and provides insights for targeted therapies against metabolic disorders.
