Advanced Science, EarlyView.The study shows that noncardiac surgical inflammation rapidly disrupts HDL function and cholesterol efflux in mice and human patients. Impaired reverse cholesterol transport after surgery drives rapid lipid accumulation, NETosis, and apoptosis within atherosclerotic plaques.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.MS436 competitively binds to the BD1 domain of Brd4, thereby suppressing Brd4 induced degradation of tight junction proteins via the Rnf43‐Fzd4‐β‐catenin signaling pathway. Consequently, this attenuation of degradation reduces blood‐brain barrier leakage, leading to an improved overall prognosis after stroke.
