Aortic valve disease: Novel animal models for advancing our understanding of the underlying mechanisms

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Due to the complex pathophysiology of aortic valve disease (AVD) and the resulting lack of effective pharmacotherapy, existing animal models are valuable research tools, but each has its own strengths and limitations. This review systematically surveys the major AVD models, compares their induction methods, pathological features, advantages and ...

Engineered 3D Fibronectin‐Based Environments Modulate the Pathogenic Profile of Arthritic Synovial Fibroblasts

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Fibroblast behavior is shaped by the surrounding microenvironment, yet conventional culture systems often fail to capture disease‐relevant phenotypes. Here, platform‐dependent responses of healthy and arthritic synovial fibroblasts are examined across 2D and 3D culture systems. Distinct inflammatory and proliferative signatures emerge, highlighting how

Covalent Immobilisation of PVA‐MA Hydrogels on Plasma‐Activated Coatings: Achieving Superior Adhesion by Reagent‐Free Formation of a Nanoscale Primer Layer

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Robust attachment of hydrogels to solid substrates is critical to success in cell culture where hydrostatic and contractile forces can contribute to delamination of weakly adhered gels. This novel approach forms a nanometer‐scale, reagent‐free hydrogel primer layer to provide improved resistance to delamination of subsequent bulk hydrogel layers in a ...

Gut Health in Ostriches (Struthio camelus): Insights Into Intestinal Structure, Functions, Microbiome, and Improvement Strategies

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Our paper systematically reviews the intestinal structure, function, and microbiota of ostriches, along with strategies for improving their gut health. We analyze how these factors collectively influence intestinal homeostasis and ostrich welfare, emphasizing probiotics as a promising intervention to enhance gut health, boost population well‐being, and

T cells, the Next Big Target in Axial Spondyloarthritis?

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by complex immune dysregulation, with T cells playing a central role in its pathogenesis. In this review, we synthesize current knowledge on diverse T cell subsets in axSpA, their pathogenic mechanisms, and emerging therapeutic strategies targeting these cells. We highlight
