Elevated Liver Enzymes Is Not an Impediment to Allopurinol Dose Escalation: An Observational Cohort Study

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Routine liver enzyme monitoring is advocated for while on allopurinol, but supporting guidance is lacking. We assessed the incidence and factors associated with elevated liver enzyme levels in patients with gout commenced on allopurinol. Methods One hundred and fifty patients with gout and normal baseline serum aminotransferases initiated on ...

Copper‐Driven Epithelial Barrier Disruption: A Novel Mechanism of COPD Acute Exacerbations Mediated by the TNF‐α/ATP7A Axis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals a copper‐driven mechanism of COPD acute exacerbations mediated by the TNF‐α/ATP7A axis. TNF‐α suppresses the copper transporter ATP7A via competitive NF‐κB/CREB1/CBP signaling, resulting in intracellular copper accumulation, mitochondrial oxidative stress, and epithelial barrier disruption.

AARS1‐Mediated RUNX3 K193 Lactylation Enhances the Activation and Cytotoxicity of CD8+T Cells in Smoking‐Related Emphysema

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Exposure to CS causes an elevation of AARS1 levels, which increases the levels of RUNX3 lactylation at the K193 site and increases protein levels of RUNX3 through inhibition of autolysosomal degradation. Elevated RUNX3 levels promote CD8+T cell activation and augment their cytotoxicity, which induces alveolar epithelial cell death and facilitates the ...

WTAP Transcriptional Suppression by KLF9 Drives Osteoclastogenesis via M6A‐Mediated Regulation of CSF1R Signaling in Estrogen‐Deficient Osteoporosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Scheme of the KLF9/WTAP/YTHDF2/m6A/CSF1R regulatory axis in osteoclastogenesis and estrogen‐deficient osteoporosis. WTAP‐mediated m6A modification of Csf1r mRNA governs osteoclastogenesis via a YTHDF2‐mediated pathway. Pathological upregulation of KLF9 drives Wtap transcription, leading to increased m6A deposition on the 3’‐UTR of Csf1r mRNA.
