Inhibition of Hypersialylation in Human Intervertebral Disc Degeneration Modulates Inflammation and Metabolism

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Glycosylation, specifically hypersialylation, is identified as a critical factor in human intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration—a major cause of low back pain. This study demonstrates that inhibiting sialylation reduces inflammation and oxidative stress in IVD tissues, suggesting new therapeutic possibilities.

Mechanisms Underlying the Stimulation of DUSP10/MKP5 Expression in Chondrocytes by High Molecular Weight Hyaluronic Acid

open access: yesBiomedicines
Background/Objectives: Previously, we reported that high molecular weight hyaluronic acid (HMW-HA) exerts chondroprotective effects by enhancing dual specificity protein phosphatase 10/mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) phosphatase 5 (DUSP10/MKP5 ...

Cell Contractile Force‐Mediated Morphogenetic Tissue Engineering via 4D Printed Degradable Hydrogel Scaffolds

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Through the actuation of cell contractile forces, geometrically complex structures are formed via a bioprinted, rapidly degrading cell‐laden hydrogel system, resulting in cell‐only condensation within a few days of culture. This system supports stem cell differentiation down different lineages and new tissue formation, such as chondrogenesis and ...

Mitochondria‐Localized Nestin Protects Mesenchymal Stem Cells from Senescence by Maintaining Cristae Structure and Function

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Nestin localizes to the mitochondrial IMS through its MTS and the TOM20 import machinery. Within the mitochondria, Nestin interacts with Mic60 via its C‐terminal Tail3 domain. Loss of mitochondrial Nestin disrupts cristae architecture, leading to mitochondrial swelling, bioenergetic dysfunction, and ultimately the senescence of hMSCs.

Bioregulation of lubricin expression by growth factors and cytokines [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Cells & Materials, 2007
Lubricin, also commonly referred to as superficial zone protein (SZP) and proteoglycan 4 (PRG4), is a multifaceted, cytoprotective glycoprotein that contributes to the boundary lubrication properties facilitating low friction levels at interfacing ...

Constructing Dual‐Atomic Fe─Fe Sites Nanozyme for Targeted Osteoarthritis Therapy through Mitigating Oxidative Stress and Cartilage Degeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A novel bimetallic nanozyme (Fe2–NCs) with well‐defined Fe–Fe active sites is synthesized through a host–guest coordination strategy, which exhibits an exceptional therapeutic efficacy in osteoarthritis therapy. Experimental and theoretical analyses uncover the intrinsic catalytic mechanism at the atomic level, offering fundamental insights and design ...

Targeted Inhibition of CD74+ Macrophages by Luteolin via CEBPB/P65 Signaling Ameliorates Osteoarthritis Progression

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies CD74⁺ macrophages as key drivers of synovial inflammation in osteoarthritis (OA). The flavonoid luteolin is predicted to inhibit this pathway by blocking Nuclear Factor Kappa‐light‐chain‐enhancer of Activated B cells (NF‐κB) signaling. To enhance delivery, a targeted nanoplatform (MDSPL) is developed.
