Systemic aging fuels heart failure: Molecular mechanisms and therapeutic avenues

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1059-1080, April 2025.
Abstract Systemic aging influences various physiological processes and contributes to structural and functional decline in cardiac tissue. These alterations include an increased incidence of left ventricular hypertrophy, a decline in left ventricular diastolic function, left atrial dilation, atrial fibrillation, myocardial fibrosis and cardiac ...

Elevating EGFR-MAPK program by a nonconventional Cdc42 enhances intestinal epithelial survival and regeneration

JCI Insight, 2020
The regulatory mechanisms enabling the intestinal epithelium to maintain a high degree of regenerative capacity during mucosal injury remain unclear. Ex vivo survival and clonogenicity of intestinal stem cells (ISCs) strictly required growth response ...

Vaginal host–microbe signatures linked to placental outcomes in mares

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Ascending placentitis is a leading cause of late‐term pregnancy loss in mares. Although pathogens are presumed to ascend from the caudal reproductive tract, the association between the vaginal microbiome and placentitis has not been systematically examined.

The importance of gene polymorphism in familial inheritance of endometriosis

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective The study aimed to investigate familial transmission patterns in women with endometriosis by generating a customized single‐nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) array. Methods Patients aged 18–45 who were diagnosed histopathologically with endometriosis were included in the study.

Paternal Exposure to the Neonicotinoid Pesticide Clothianidin Alters Sperm MicroRNA Profiles in Mice and Intergenerationally Reduces Locomotor Activity in Male Offspring

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Accumulating evidence suggests that paternal environmental factors have epigenetic effects on sperm and influence offspring. Neonicotinoid pesticides (NNs), which are widely used around the world, are known to affect offspring phenotypes through maternal exposure in mice, but the effect of the paternal exposure remains unknown.

Baicalein Sensitizes Radioresistant BT549 and MCF7‐R Breast Cancer Cells by Modulating Rac1 Signaling

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Radioresistance remains a key barrier in breast cancer (BC) treatment. Baicalein, a flavonoid from Scutellaria baicalensis, has shown potential to enhance radiosensitivity. This study investigates its efficacy and mechanism in radioresistant BC models. Radioresistant BC cell models were established via fractionated irradiation and validated by

Cdc42 mobility and membrane flows regulate fission yeast cell shape and survival

Nature Communications
Polarized exocytosis induced by local Cdc42 GTPase activity results in membrane flows that deplete low-mobility membrane-associated proteins. A reaction-diffusion particle model comprising Cdc42 positive feedback activation, hydrolysis by GTPase ...

Integrated Methylome–Transcriptome Analysis Reveals Epigenomic Remodeling and Rho GTPase–Linked Immune–Epithelial Crosstalk in Atopic Dermatitis

Allergy, EarlyView.
Integrated methylome–transcriptome–microbiome analysis of AD skin identified thousands of DMRs. Rho GTPase signaling and actin–junctional programs emerged as central hubs integrating immune, epithelial, and microbial interactions in the pathogenesis of atopic dermatitis.

Cell division cycle protein 42-driven activation of the MKK3/6-p38 signaling pathway participates in cardiac remodeling in mice

Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences
Cell division cycle protein 42 (Cdc42) is a member of the Rho GTPase subfamily that serves as a signal mediating factor in cell cycle division, cytoskeleton arrangement, cell polarization, membrane trafficking and signal transduction.
