PVC Nanoplastics Exposure Exacerbates Asthma through R‐Loop Accumulation and Subsequent STING Activation in Macrophages

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) nanoplastics (NPs) are shown to aggravate allergic airway inflammation in asthma by triggering R‐loop accumulation and activating the cGAS‐STING pathway in macrophages. This study reveals a novel immunotoxic mechanism linking environmental plastic exposure to asthma pathogenesis and highlights potential molecular targets for ...

Critical Role of IL1R2‐ENO1 Interaction in Inhibiting Glycolysis‐Mediated Pyroptosis for Protection Against Lethal Sepsis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The authors have discovered that intracellular interleukin 1 receptor 2 (IL1R2) negatively regulates pyroptosis and inflammation by inhibiting glycolysis in sepsis. Soluble IL1R2 is released from macrophages undergoing pyroptosis. IL1R2 acts as a novel negative regulator of glycolysis by interacting with enolase 1 (ENO1), thereby inhibiting gasdermin D

Expanding the phenotype in Pitt-Hopkins syndrome; description of new oral finding and dental management considerations

BMC Oral Health
Background Pitt-Hopkins syndrome (PTHS) is a rare neurodevelopmental disorder with physical, cognitive, and behavioral characteristics that is caused by heterozygous mutations in the TCF4 gene. Patients with PTHS might present a unique challenge for oral

Calhm6 Governs Macrophage Polarization Through Chp1‐Camk4‐Creb1 Axis and Ectosomal Delivery in Inflammatory Responses

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Calhm6 drives M2 macrophage polarization via the Chp1‐Camk4‐Creb1 axis, suppressing inflammation through calcium‐dependent ectosomal delivery. Calhm6 deficiency enhances M1 responses, boosting bactericidal activity but exacerbating tissue damage. LPS/IFNγ upregulate Calhm6 via Irf1, while IL‐4/Stat6 inhibits it, balancing immune outcomes.

Potentiating Cerebral Perfusion Normalizes Glymphatic Dynamics in Systemic Inflammation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
LPS‐induced systemic inflammation increases glymphatic influx but delays cervical lymphatic drainage, accompanied by AQP4 depolarization and impaired glymphatic clearance. Enhancing cerebral blood flow via the inotropic agent levosimendan effectively restored AQP4 polarization, improving glymphatic flux and amyloid‐β clearance.

NEAT1 Promotes Epileptogenesis in Tuberous Sclerosis Complex

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The primary neurological manifestations of tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) are intractable epilepsy and intellectual disability. NEAT1 is differentially expressed in TSC‐related epilepsy and influences neuronal excitability by regulating the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway.

Neoeriocitrin Targeting Beclin1 Deubiquitination and Autophagy in Osteogenic Differentiation of Human Dental Pulp Stem Cells

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Neoeriocitrin enhances osteogenesis in hDPSCs and bone regeneration by targeting Beclin1 to inhibit ubiquitination‐mediated degradation, thereby stabilizing Beclin1 and increasing its protein abundance to activate autophagy. Abstract Human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) are dental‐derived mesenchymal stem cells with robust multipotent differentiation ...
