During development, the oxygen‐sensitive transcription factor Zeb2 restrains astrocyte proliferation and maturation to ensure balanced retinal angiogenesis. In disease, it promotes the neurotoxic A1 astrocyte phenotype and inflammation, thereby promoting reparative revascularization over pathological neovascularization.

Single‐cell and spatial profiling reveal that lymphovascular space invasion in endometrioid endometrial carcinoma is driven by coordinated interactions among metastatic epithelium, fibroblasts, immune cells, and endothelium. This multicellular network promotes matrix remodelling, angiogenesis, and immune evasion, forming a pro‐metastatic niche that ...

GIP in Cardiovascular and Kidney Disease: From Physiology to Pharmacology
ABSTRACT Aims To provide a comprehensive overview of the cardiovascular and renal effects of glucose‐dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) by integrating its physiological role with recent human trial data on tirzepatide, the first dual GIP and glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) receptor agonist.

A guide to the types, structures, and multifaceted functions of matrix metalloproteinases in cancer
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) orchestrate cancer progression and metastasis through proteolytic and non‐proteolytic actions. By remodeling the tumor microenvironment, enhancing growth factor availability, and modulating cell behavior, MMPs promote proliferation, migration or invasion, and epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition. Alongside extracellular

Proteolytic remodelling of the extracellular matrix by pericytes
Pericytes are specialised perivascular cells intimately connected with endothelial cells and essential for the maintenance of vascular beds. They contribute to the formation and remodelling of the extracellular matrix by actively secreting proteases and protease inhibitors.

ABSTRACT Background Dental pulp inflammation triggers immune responses involving macrophages and dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs), which interact to regulate angiogenesis essential for tissue repair. M1 pro‐inflammatory macrophages predominate early in pulpitis, and clarifying their angiogenic role is vital in identifying inflammatory regenerative ...
