Defective Renal Angiotensin III and AT2 Receptor Signaling in Prehypertensive Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2019
Background Previous studies demonstrated that angiotensin (Ang) III, not Ang II, is the predominant endogenous agonist for Ang type‐2 receptor (AT2R)‐induced natriuresis in normal rats, and that hypertensive 12‐week‐old spontaneously hypertensive rats ...

Tumor‐Derived Interleukin 35 Promotes Fibrosis in the Tumor Microenvironment of Pancreatic Cancer by Activating Pancreatic Stellate Cells

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that tumor‐derived IL‐35 promotes pancreatic cancer fibrosis by indirectly activating pancreatic stellate cells through IGFBP2/IGF‐1R/PI3K‐Akt and Tsp‐1/TGF‐β pathways. IL‐35 blockade reduces stromal fibrosis, restores chemosensitivity, and synergizes with gemcitabine‐based regimens, highlighting IL‐35 as a promising therapeutic

Identification of TPRA1 as a Novel Receptor and Predictive Biomarker for Oncolytic Virus M1

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies transmembrane protein adipocyte‐associated 1 (TPRA1) as a novel receptor for oncolytic virus M1 (OVM). TPRA1's ectodomain binds OVM particles, while its intracellular domain facilitates virus internalization, promoting efficient viral entry.

ACE‐mediated Glycosylation Stabilizes PSAP To Promote GPR37‐dependent Macrophage‐Nucleus Pulposus Cells Crosstalk and TGFβ Signaling in Alleviating Intervertebral Disc Degeneration

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ACE can modulate the CBL‐mediated K48 ubiquitination degradation of PSAP by altering its glycosylation levels in NP cells. As a result, NP cells secrete PSAP, which interacts with GPR37 on macrophage surfaces, facilitating their polarization toward the M2 phenotype. These M2 macrophages subsequently secrete TGFβ, which exerts feedback effects on the NP

12‐HETE Is an Endogenous Modulator of BLT2 Triggering Vascular Degeneration, Dissection, and Rupture

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In thoracic aortic dissection (TAD), elevated levels of the arachidonic acid metabolite 12‐HETE, produced by macrophage‐specific 12/15‐lipoxygenase (12/15‐LOX), bind to the BLT2 receptor on vascular cells. This activates the NOX‐1/ROS/NF‐κB signaling pathway, leading to IL‐6 release.

ATRQβ‐001 Vaccine Prevents Experimental Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2019
Background We have developed a peptide vaccine named ATRQβ‐001, which was proved to retard signal transduction initiated by angiotensin II (Ang II). Ang II was implicated in abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) progression, but whether the ATRQβ‐001 vaccine ...

Impact of Renin‐Angiotensin System Inhibitors on Renal Function During Temporary Ileostomy Period in Rectal Cancer Patients: A Retrospective Cohort Study

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This retrospective study explored the potential impact of renin–angiotensin system inhibitors (RASIs) on renal function during the ileostomy period in patients undergoing rectal cancer surgery. RASI use was associated with early postoperative renal impairment, and relatively slow recovery of renal function was observed until stoma closure.

Impaired angiotensin II signaling in septic shock

Annals of Intensive Care
Recent years have seen a resurgence of interest for the renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system in critically ill patients. Emerging data suggest that this vital homeostatic system, which plays a crucial role in maintaining systemic and renal hemodynamics ...
