Microphysiological Uremia Model Reveals Biophysical Potentiators of Vascular Dysfunction
A microfluidic platform of engineered blood vessels is developed to study the role of mechanical forces in immune cell adhesion and extravasation in uremic microenvironments. Elevated pressure increases monocyte activity, with ICAM‐1 as a key driver. Matrix density influences monocyte phenotypes, but the uremic environment consistently promoted a pro ...

This study elucidates the critical role of Rictor in macrophage activation in acute antibody‐mediated rejection (ABMR). Rictor increases K48‐linked ubiquitination of p65 by upregulating E3 ubiquitin ligase SOCS1, inhibiting transcriptional levels of NLRP3 and inflammasome activation.

Mycotic aortic aneurysms account for 1–3% of all aortic aneurysms. The management of this disease is controversial. Since open surgical repair is associated with high morbidity and mortality rates, endovascular aneurysm repair is an alternative treatment

Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs)‐specific deficiency of PP2Acα exacerbates aortic aneurysm and dissection (AAD) by promoting phenotypic switching through AKT1‐mediated phosphorylation and stabilization of Kruppel‐like factor 4 (KLF4). Reduced PP2Acα enhances KLF4 ubiquitination resistance, suppressing VSMC contractile genes and accelerating aortic ...

Elevated lactate in diabetes activates the GPR132‐Src pathway in macrophages, inducing macrophage senescence and further enhancing foam cell formation. This mechanism exacerbates atherosclerotic progression. Abstract Diabetes is widely acknowledged as a significant risk factor for atherosclerosis, facilitating plaque formation through various ...

This study proposes a novel HCC therapy using CA‐4S2@ES‐Cu nanomedicines to amplify cuproptosis, enhancing chemotherapy and immunotherapy. CA‐4 and ES‐Cu synergistically inhibit tumor growth, induce immune responses, and reverse the immunosuppressive microenvironment, offering an effective multidimensional therapeutic strategy for HCC treatment ...

Oral aspirin administration induces intestinal expansion of Lactobacillus murinus and Lactobacillus johnsonii, which suppresses the progression of atherosclerosis. This microbial expansion significantly enhances butyrate production by providing lactate as a metabolic substrate, thereby fostering the growth of butyrate‐producing bacteria. Butyrate plays
