Abstract Efforts to use transcriptomics for toxicity testing have classically relied on the assumption that chemicals consistently produce characteristic transcriptomic signatures that are reflective of their mechanism of action. However, the degree to which transcriptomic responses are conserved across different test methodologies has seldom been ...

Hepatic arginase deficiency fosters dysmyelination during postnatal CNS development.
Deficiency of arginase is associated with hyperargininemia, and prominent features include spastic diplegia/tetraplegia, clonus, and hyperreflexia; loss of ambulation, intellectual disability and progressive neurological decline are other signs.

Deficiency of α7 Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptor Attenuates Bleomycin-Induced Lung Fibrosis in Mice
α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (α7 nAChR, coded by Chrna7) is indispensable in dampening proinflammatory responses. However, whether α7 nAChR plays a role in regulating bleomycin (BLM)-induced lung fibrosis is less investigated.

Repurposing antimicrobial agents for neuroprotection: Mechanisms, clinical potential, and challenges
Antimicrobial agents exert neuroprotective effects through modulation of interconnected pathways. Tetracyclines, macrolides, antimalarial agents, sulfones, and antiparasitic agents suppress neuroinflammation, oxidative stress, and apoptosis while preserving mitochondrial function and neurotransmission.

Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell- and mRNA-based Gene Therapy Strategies for Treatment of Arginase Deficiency [PDF]
Urea cycle disorders are incurable enzymopathies that affect nitrogen metabolism and typically lead to hyperammonemia. Arginase deficiency is caused by biallelic mutations in ARG1, the final step of the urea cycle, and results biochemically in ...

Sickle Cell Disease: Historical Overview and Current Therapies
ABSTRACT Sickle cell disease (SCD) affects millions worldwide, yet the limited treatment options currently available do not always adequately control the disease and carry significant side effects. At present, the only curative treatment is hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) transplantation, a procedure that carries considerable challenges and numerous ...

Melittin Reprograms Tumor‐Associated Macrophages Through CD18‐Mediated Immunomodulation
Melittin selectively targets CD18 to deplete M2‐TAMs and remodel the TME to suppress tumor growth. ABSTRACT Tumor‐associated macrophages (TAMs), particularly the M2‐like subtype, contribute to an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment and promote tumor progression.
