Gβγ subunit activation of KV7 and BKCa channels underlies calcitonin gene‐related peptide vasorelaxation in myogenic rat coronary resistance arteries

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose CGRP is a potent, clinically relevant coronary vasodilator known to play a role in cardioprotection. Here, we investigated the precise intracellular signalling pathways leading to vasodilation in small coronary arteries.

Atrial natriuretic peptide counteracts aldosterone secretion by preventing acute angiotensin II‐induced cAMP signalling

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Aldosterone plays a key role in blood pressure and volume regulation. Enhanced aldosterone secretion contributes to cardiovascular and renal diseases. Therefore, inhibitors of aldosterone receptors and synthase are essential drugs for the treatment of hypertension and heart failure.

The nitty‐gritty of vascular permeability in cancer: targeting blood endothelium to control metastases

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Blood vascular permeability is a hallmark of cancer and acts as an active driver of metastatic dissemination. Metastasis accounts for the vast majority of cancer deaths, yet most work has focussed on tumour‐intrinsic traits and angiogenesis, while the specific contribution of endothelial barrier regulation to intravasation and extravasation remains ...

Functional screen for subtype specificity of voltage sensor–targeted Kv7 potentiators

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Voltage‐gated Kv7 (potassium channel subfamily Q [KCNQ]) potassium channels are powerful modulators of neuronal excitability. ICA‐069673 is a N‐aryl benzamide drug that targets the voltage‐sensing domain (VSD) of Kv7.2 with strong selectivity over Kv7.3 or Kv7.5, but the molecular basis of this selectivity remains poorly ...

Hypoxia Exacerbates Periapical Periodontitis‐Associated Pathological Bone Loss via the Hypoxia‐Inducible Factor‐2α‐Calmodulin‐Dependent Protein Kinase IV Axis

open access: yesCell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Hypoxia exposure activates HIF‐2α, which binds to the Camk4 promoter to enhance RANKL‐mediated osteoclast differentiation, leading to aggravated alveolar bone resorption in periapical periodontitis. ABSTRACT Periapical periodontitis is one of the most common inflammatory bone destructive diseases. Epidemiological evidence suggests that hypoxia exposure,

Mitochondrial transfer in acute myeloid leukaemia and multiple myeloma: Mechanisms, consequences and potential therapeutic opportunities

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Mitochondria can be transferred from bone marrow cells to cancer cells in acute myeloid leukaemia and multiple myeloma, boosting tumour energy production, growth, and drug resistance. This review highlights key transfer mechanisms and shows how targeting mitochondrial movement and dynamics may offer new therapeutic strategies to limit cancer ...

The epigenetic landscape of skeletal muscle in response to exercise and aging

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Epigenetic mechanisms regulate gene expression in response to exercise and aging, thereby supporting skeletal muscle plasticity. Acute exercise induces chromatin remodeling through histone modifications and DNA methylation, promoting the expression of exercise‐responsive genes.

The multidimensional regulation roles and mechanisms of calcium in fruit quality

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review explores how calcium signaling molecule integrates plant hormones, environmental cues, and developmental signals to influence external fruit traits, internal nutritional properties, and physiological disorders. ABSTRACT Calcium (Ca2+), a dual‐functional mineral that serves both as an essential structural factor and a signaling molecule ...

Transcriptional adapter ADA2 regulates yield and end‐use quality through liquid–liquid phase separation in wheat

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
The transcriptional adapter ADA2 interacts with the histone acetyltransferase GCN5 to regulate starch and storage protein content in wheat grains through histone acetylation. ADA2 undergoes phase separation and is modulated by GCN5, affecting histone acetyltransferase activity and gene transcription.

Decoding stress resilience in soybean: Regulatory networks and precision breeding under climate change

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review covers recent progress in the understanding of stress‐responsive regulatory networks in soybean and highlights emerging genomic and breeding strategies. Integrating molecular insights and precision breeding will help to accelerate the development of climate‐resilient soybean cultivars.
