Porcine kidney xenotransplantation: From primate models to clinical reality

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
In the face of a critical shortage of human donor kidneys for end‐stage renal disease patients, porcine kidney xenotransplantation has emerged as a viable solution. This field has navigated major hurdles, including immune rejection, physiological incompatibilities, potential biomechanical differences and the risk of cross‐species infection. To overcome

Exercise‐specific plasma proteomic signatures in racehorses: Candidates for training adaptation and peak load monitoring

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Racehorses undergo profound physiological changes with training and competition, but current biomarkers inadequately capture the complex molecular dynamics of exercise. This study aimed to identify novel plasma biomarkers of training adaptation and peak load using high‐throughput proteomics.

Role of Heme Oxygenase as a Modulator of Heme-Mediated Pathways

Antioxidants, 2019
The heme oxygenase (HO) system is essential for heme and iron homeostasis and necessary for adaptation to cell stress. HO degrades heme to biliverdin (BV), carbon monoxide (CO) and ferrous iron.

Decidual macrophage‐mediated ferroptosis in trophoblasts leads to recurrent spontaneous abortion

iMeta, EarlyView.
Decidual macrophages from recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA) patients promote trophoblast ferroptosis and impair trophoblast cell function. Mechanistically, the CXCL2/NF‐κB/HMOX1 axis mediates this effect. Conversely, trophoblasts co‐cultured with RSA decidual macrophages induce pro‐inflammatory macrophage polarization through IL‐6/JAK2/STAT3 ...

The Cytoprotective Enzyme Heme Oxygenase-1 Suppresses Pseudorabies Virus Replication in vitro

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Pseudorabies virus (PRV) infection brings about great economic losses to the swine industry worldwide, as there are currently no effective therapeutic agents or vaccines against this disease, and mutations in endemic wild virulent PRV strains result in ...

Metabolic Functions of Biliverdin IXβ Reductase in Redox-Regulated Hematopoietic Cell Fate

Antioxidants, 2023
Cytoprotective heme oxygenases derivatize heme to generate carbon monoxide, ferrous iron, and isomeric biliverdins, followed by rapid NAD(P)H-dependent biliverdin reduction to the antioxidant bilirubin.

A quad‐cistronic fluorescent biosensor system for real‐time detection of subcellular Ca2+ signals

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose The calcium ion (Ca2+) is a versatile cellular messenger regulating a variety of biological processes. Compounds modulating subcellular Ca2+ signals hold substantial pharmacological potential. Advances in fluorescent biosensors have revolutionised Ca2+ imaging.

Acute pain transfusion reaction in a patient with thalassemia: In‐depth characterization of short‐ and long‐term phenotypes

Transfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Acute pain transfusion reaction (APTR) is a rare, under‐recognized condition of unknown etiology. It can cause significant distress in recipients, necessitating symptomatic management and, occasionally, hospitalization. Study Design and Methods Here, we present an APTR event in an adult subject with transfusion‐dependent thalassemia

A Novel Plasma Heme Assay Reveals Disease Severity in Beta‐Thalassemia and Sickle Cell Anemia

American Journal of Hematology, Volume 101, Issue 7, Page 1706-1716, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Anemia results from imbalanced hemoglobin or red blood cell production and clearance. Hemolytic anemia, caused by premature red blood cell removal, can be intravascular (in blood) or extravascular (erythrophagocytosis). Hemolysis is common in Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) and Beta‐Thalassemia anemia (β‐thalassemia), the most prevalent inherited ...
