Targeting PCSK9 in Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells: An Effective Strategy to Suppress Ferroptosis and Attenuate Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Progression

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
PCSK9 aggravates AAA by promoting ferroptosis in VSMCs. In the pathological AAA environment, PCSK9 upregulation triggers ferritinophagy‐dependent degradation of FTH1, leading to Fe2+ release, triggering lipid peroxidation and ferroptosis, exacerbating AAA.

Identification of ACAT1- and ACAT2-specific inhibitors using a novel, cell-based fluorescence assay

Journal of Lipid Research, 2004
Acyl CoA:cholesterol acyltransferase 1 (ACAT1) and ACAT2 are enzymes responsible for the formation of cholesteryl esters in tissues. While both ACAT1 and ACAT2 are present in the liver and intestine, the cells containing either enzyme within these ...

Improved prognosis prediction of all‐cause mortality and cardiovascular events by combined assessment of both ankle‐brachial index and brachial‐ankle pulse wave velocity in individuals with diabetes: The Kyushu prevention study for atherosclerosis, a prospective, multicenter survey

Journal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
A novel algorithm combining ABI and baPWV was developed to predict mortality and CVD risk in individuals with diabetes. This algorithm improved the accuracy of mortality and CVD risk assessment and was independent from the Framingham Risk Score. ABSTRACT Aims/Introduction People with diabetes exhibit early‐stage cardiovascular disease (CVD).

Representation, medical examination, and the effectiveness of underwriting: Evidence from a life and health insurance company

Risk Management and Insurance Review, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examines whether underwriting methods—representation, medical examination, extra premiums, and coverage—effectively mitigate adverse selection using data from an insurance company. Regarding representation, we focus on statements disclosing pre‐existing medical conditions.

Validation of a microRNA profile in urine liquid biopsy with diagnostic and stratification value for bladder cancer classification, available through the open app BladdermiRaCan

Experimental Hematology & Oncology
We aimed to identify a profile of urine microRNAs (miRNAs) with diagnostic and stratification potential in the whole range of bladder cancer (BC) categories, to avoid current invasive, harmful and expensive procedures.

Molecular pathophysiology of chronic kidney disease–mineral and bone disorder: Focus on the fibroblast growth factor 23–Klotho axis and bone turnover dynamics

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Chronic kidney disease–mineral and bone disorder (CKD‐MBD) is a major complication of chronic kidney disease (CKD), characterized by disruptions in mineral metabolism, abnormal bone turnover and vascular calcification, which collectively increase the risk of fractures and cardiovascular disease.

Reduced cardiovascular mortality at moderate altitude: a putative role of physical activity and body mass

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Benefits of performing physical exercise at moderate altitude. At moderate altitude, increased resting metabolic rate and physical exertion promote physical fitness and exercise tolerance, whereas hypoxia suppresses appetite and elicits adaptations that increase tissue O2 delivery while augmenting O2‐independent ATP production ...

Cerebral small vessel disease and cognition in older adults across the neurodegenerative spectrum: insights from the COMPASS‐ND study

Alzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract INTRODUCTION Imaging‐based cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) summary scores quantify CSVD burden. This study characterized CSVD scores and assessed their cognitive associations in older adults with various neurodegenerative diseases and cognitive profiles.
