hUC‐MSCs via β‐NGF Alleviate Cognitive Impairment After Tibial Fracture Surgery by Regulating the STMN2/NMNAT2‐SARM1‐NF‐κB Signaling Pathway

CNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 32, Issue 8, August 2026.
This study found that human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells secrete β‐NGF, which binds to the TrkA receptor on neurons, upregulates the protein levels of STMN2 and NMNAT2 in mice with perioperative neurocognitive disorders, and thereby downregulates the protein levels of SARM1 and p‐NF‐κB.

Engineered exosomes improve myocardial cell membrane integrity and heart function in dystrophic cardiomyopathy

Clinical and Translational Medicine, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Schematic diagram of the manufacturing process of exosomes‐cardiac homing peptide (Exo‐CHP) and its therapeutic effects for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) cardiomyopathy. Abstract Background Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD)‐associated cardiomyopathy is a leading causes of premature death, yet treatment options remain limited.

Revisiting the calpain hypothesis of learning and memory 40 years later

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience
In 1984, Gary Lynch and Michel Baudry published in Science a novel biochemical hypothesis for learning and memory, in which they postulated that the calcium-dependent protease, calpain, played a critical role in regulating synaptic properties and the ...

Neighboring Gulf Killifish (Fundulus grandis) Populations Differ in Their Plastic and Genetic Responses to Salinity Fluctuations

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Coastal development can alter the salinity fluctuations experienced by tidal creek systems. Understanding how resident organisms, such as the Gulf killifish, respond to these changes is critical, as development along the coastline is projected to triple in the coming decades.

Stress‐Induced Switch in Small Extracellular Vesicle Secretion: From Constitutive ‘Torn Bag Mechanism’ to Exocytosis

Journal of Extracellular Vesicles, Volume 15, Issue 8, August 2026.
Stress‐induced switch. Under stress conditions, small extracellular vesicle release shifts from the constitutive ‘torn bag mechanism’ to exocytosis of multivesicular endosomes. https://BioRender.com/xn1pa1e. ABSTRACT The biogenesis of small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) is only partially understood.

Neuroprotective Effects of Calpain Inhibition in Parkinson’s Disease: Insights from Cellular and Murine Models

Cells
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is characterized by the progressive loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra, and key pathways such as neuroinflammation, oxidative stress, and autophagy are believed to significantly contribute to the mechanisms of ...

Divergent Atrial Transcriptomic Signatures in Diabetic and Nondiabetic Atrial Fibrillation

Journal of Arrhythmia, Volume 42, Issue 4, August 2026.
Diabetes alters the atrial transcriptome in atrial fibrillation, characterized by enhanced mitochondrial ATP synthesis, suppressed immune and inflammatory pathways, and distinct miRNA expression profiles, suggesting metabolic and epigenetic remodeling of the atrial substrate.

Autophagy Plays a Suppressive Role in Bladder Tumor Formation in an Orthotopic Mouse Model and Bladder Cancer Patient Specimens

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, Volume 42, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Autophagy plays either a suppressing or promoting role during tumor development. Clarifying the role of autophagy in bladder tumorigenesis both in vitro and in vivo is crucial for developing novel therapeutic strategies through manipulating autophagy activity.

Inhibiting HIF‐1α‐Induced miR‐663b Improves Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension by Reducing Dysfunctions of PASMCs Through Repressing Sirt1‐ZBP1‐Mediated PANoptosis

Journal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Volume 30, Issue 15, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a progressive disease characterised by vascular remodelling. Inflammatory responses and oxidative stress have been shown to contribute to its progression. This study investigated the effects of a novel HIF‐1α‐miR‐663b axis on pulmonary arterial smooth muscle inflammation, oxidative stress and apoptosis ...
