The tandem–random transition of cellular patterning: proposed roles of N‐cadherin‐based orientational cell adhesions in the development, maintenance, and degeneration of the nucleus pulposus

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 1, Page 268-278, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) can contribute to lower back and neck pain. In IDD, the most affected component of the intervertebral disc is the nucleus pulposus (NP). Derived from the notochord, where cells are organized into a tandem configuration, young NP cells cluster in three‐dimensional (3D) networks embedded in a gelatinous ...

Galactomyces ferment filtrate upregulates anchoring junctions and stabilizes actin to maintain the Young's modulus of skin cells in vitro

International Journal of Cosmetic Science, Volume 48, Issue 1, Page 16-29, February 2026.
Ageing causes actin cytoskeleton disorganization, a reduction in cellular components associated with the actin cytoskeleton and focal adhesions, and a reduction in skin firmness. Galactomyces ferment filtrate boosts actin stability, increases expression of anchoring junction proteins, including focal adhesions and protects against loss of firmness ...

The Subgingival Host–Microbial Landscape in Mothers With Periodontitis and Their At‐Risk Offspring

Journal of Clinical Periodontology, Volume 53, Issue 2, Page 201-213, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim To evaluate the subgingival proteome and microbiome of mothers with periodontitis and their offspring, thereby assessing signatures of periodontal diseases. Methods Forty participants in four groups were included: mothers with periodontitis and their offspring, as well as periodontally healthy mothers and their offspring.

Immunohistochemical Analysis of Tom20 in Choroid Plexus Epithelial Cells From Elderly Brains With Neurodegenerative Diseases

Neuropathology, Volume 46, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The choroid plexus (CP) contributes to cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) production and regulation of circadian rhythm. Recently, many neuroimaging studies have reported enlarged CP volumes in patients with neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease (AD).

Unlocking the Therapeutic Potential of Integrin‐Linked Kinase Inhibitors in Bioengineered 3D Breast Tumor Stroma Models

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 2, 31 January 2026.
3D cancer models provide a more reliable representation of drug responses compared to 2D cell culture owing to their 3D architecture and facilitation of cell‐extracellular matrix interactions. In this study, we engineered dense compartmentalized 3D tumoroids composed of breast tumor mass and a surrounding stromal compartment replicating either breast ...
