Oxymatrine Inhibits Epithelial‐Mesenchymal Transition to Alleviate Airway Remodeling in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease by Suppressing the TGF‐β1/Smad Pathway

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, Volume 42, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT This study explored the therapeutic efficacy of oxymatrine (OMT, C15H24N2O2) in a murine model of cigarette smoke (CS)‐induced chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and elucidated its underlying mechanisms. A COPD model was established in mice through prolonged exposure to CS, followed by intraperitoneal administration of OMT (50 mg/kg)

From Heterogeneity to Plasticity: Endothelial Dynamics in Lung Disease

Pulmonary Circulation, Volume 16, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Endothelial heterogeneity and plasticity play an important role in lung development, homeostasis, and pathology. In recent years, increasing evidence has demonstrated that endothelial dysfunction contributes to the progression of various lung diseases, such as ADRS, PF, PH, and lung developmental disorders.

Prevalence and risk factors for metabolic dysfunction–associated steatotic liver disease in Sweden: Insights from the SCAPIS cohort

Journal of Internal Medicine, Volume 299, Issue 4, Page 481-501, April 2026.
Abstract Background and Aims Metabolic dysfunction–associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is the most common chronic liver disease globally, but its prevalence and severity remain poorly characterized in the general population. Our aim was to estimate the prevalence of MASLD and the risk of advanced fibrosis in a large Swedish general population ...

MASLD Is Associated With Decreased General Health Perception, Quality of Life and Work Productivity in a Low Fibrosis Population

Liver International, Volume 46, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Data on quality of life in a low fibrosis prevalence metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) cohort are scarce, as previous research has focused on advanced fibrosis and cirrhosis. This study examined the association between steatosis and general and mental health, as well as productivity in patients in ...
