Nuclear Translocation of PFKFB3 Promotes Disuse‐Induced Muscle Atrophy via Scaffolding Nedd4‐Mediated JunB Ubiquitination

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Disuse‐induced muscle atrophy is driven by a non‐metabolic, nuclear function of the enzyme PFKFB3. Acting as a scaffold, PFKFB3 facilitates Nedd4‐mediated ubiquitination and degradation of the anti‐atrophy transcription factor JunB. Inhibiting this novel PFKFB3–Nedd4–JunB signaling axis stabilizes JunB and alleviates muscle wasting, revealing a highly ...

The Deubiquitinase UCHL1 Drives Susceptibility to Atrial Fibrillation by Stabilizing CaMKII‐δ

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
UCHL1 is highly upregulated in mice and patients with AF. UCHL1 directly binds to and removes K48‐linked polyubiquitin chains from CaMKII‐δ at K251 and enhances CaMKII‐δ stability, which activates RyR2, disrupts Ca2+ handling, and promotes AF. These findings establish UCHL1 as a critical regulator of CaMKII‐δ stability and AF‐related Ca2+ handling ...

A Spatiotemporal Single‐Cell Atlas Uncovers Dysregulated ECM Dynamics and Septal Remodeling Arrest in Human Ventricular Septal Defects

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Integrating single‐cell and spatial transcriptomics reveals human ventricular septal defect (VSD) as a disease of microenvironmental insufficiency and structural remodeling arrest. Attenuated endothelial‐fibroblast crosstalk, alongside downregulated THBS1/TGF‐β1 and MMP2 signaling networks, impairs the endothelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EndoMT) and

Overexpression of miR-221 in sudden death with cardiac hypertrophy patients

Heliyon, 2018
Background: Cardiac hypertrophy is a well-known risk factor for heart failure and sudden cardiac death (SCD). On the other hand, physiological cardiac hypertrophy is often observed in young healthy men, and it is difficult to predict SCD in cardiac ...

Alkylating Agent–Induced FANCL Impairment Damages Pulmonary Arterial, Venous, and Microvascular Endothelial Cells and Predisposes to PAH/PVOD

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study establishes a novel cisplatin‐induced rat model of PAH/PVOD and identifies a conserved mechanistic axis—FANCL impairment, DNA damage accumulation, and endothelial dysfunction—triggered by cisplatin or mitomycin C across pulmonary arteries, veins, and microvessels.

Ultrasound‐Triggered piRNA Delivery Using Biomimetic Phase‐Changeable Nanoparticles for Theranostics of Myocardial Infarction

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A biomimetic ultrasound‐responsive piRNA delivery nanoparticle platform (piR‐NPs) enables targeted delivery and ultrasound (US)‐triggered release of piR‐1873 in infarcted myocardium. The released piR‐1873 suppresses Usp2‐mediated RIP1/RIP3/MLKL necroptosis, reduces myocardial injury and fibrosis, and promotes cardiac functional recovery, providing a ...

The role of autophagy in cardiac hypertrophy [PDF]

Acta Biochimica et Biophysica Sinica, 2016
Autophagy is conserved in nature from lower eukaryotes to mammals and is an important self-cannibalizing, degradative process that contributes to the elimination of superfluous materials. Cardiac hypertrophy is primarily characterized by excess protein synthesis, increased cardiomyocyte size, and thickened ventricular walls and is a major risk factor ...

RBMS1 Contributes to Early Arteriovenous Fistula Neointimal Remodeling Through Modulation of VSMC Phenotypic Responses

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Postoperative arteriovenous fistulas exhibit increased RBMS1 in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). In experimental AVFs, RBMS1 overexpression aggravates, whereas deletion attenuates, neointimal hyperplasia. RBMS1 binds MPZL1 mRNA and promotes exon 5 skipping to generate MPZL1‐Δ5, which interacts with G3BP1 to activate AKT, driving VSMC proliferation,

Allium sativum, a Natural and Pharmaco‐Remedial Panacea for Entero‐Gastritis, Antibiocidal/Dysbiogenesis, and Systemic Health Relevance

AgriFood: Journal of Agricultural Products for Food, EarlyView.
Natural Pharmaco‐remedial impacts of Allium sativum on Systemic health. ABSTRACT Arising from the emergence of diverse difficult‐to‐treat health cases, alterative‐therapeutic strategies have become a potential way forward for management/control. In traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), various plant materials have been sourced as alterative‐therapeutic ...
