Targeting the miR‐224‐5p/PTEN pathway: A previously under‐characterized strategy to attenuate mesangial cell injury and predict prognosis in diabetic nephropathy

Journal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
Serum miR‐224‐5p levels are progressively elevated in diabetic nephropathy (DN) and serve as an independent predictor of a decline in eGFR of ≥30% over 2 years. Mechanistically, miR‐224‐5p directly targets PTEN 3’‐UTR, suppressing PTEN and the activation of the AKT pathway in high‐glucose‐stimulated mesangial cells.

Established and Emerging Biomarkers to Characterize Persons at Risk for Obesity—Paving the Way for Targeted Clinical Intervention Trials—A Comprehensive Position Paper

Obesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite all efforts, obesity remains a major health concern worldwide, with continuously increasing rates, affecting approx. 14% of the total world population, being as high as 43% in some countries. As obesity is related to numerous comorbidities, including type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and some types of cancer, the consequences ...

Understanding exosomes in regenerative dentistry

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Regenerative dentistry is shifting from cell‐based strategies to cell‐free biologics capable of orchestrating intricate tissue repair. Exosomes, nanosized extracellular vesicles carrying bioactive molecular payloads, have emerged as central modulators of intercellular communication.

Understanding exosomes in diabetic wound healing

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Diabetic wounds signify a major complication of diabetes mellitus, characterized by chronic inflammation, compromised angiogenesis, and high risk of infection, amputation, and mortality. Contemporary therapies remain limited in efficacy and durability.

Understanding extracellular vesicle biology, isolation, and characterization: The theory of EV‐erything

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Extracellular vesicles (EVs), especially exosomes, are nanoparticles increasingly recognized as key regulators of intercellular communication in both physiological and pathological aspects. Despite rapid progress, inconsistencies in nomenclature, isolation, and characterization continue to restrict translational advancement.

The role of extracellular vesicles in cell–cell crosstalk in cardiotoxicity

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Administration of a pharmacological agent can result in off‐target cardiotoxicity which can be driven by cell–cell crosstalk between healthy and dysfunctional cardiac cells. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are lipid bilayer structures that can move biological cargo between cells, facilitating cell–cell crosstalk.

Circular RNAs: Unlocking new avenues in cardiometabolic disease management

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend In the heart circular RNAs (circRNAs) function as microRNA sponges, interact with proteins and can even undergo translation. Advances in bioinformatics now enable their identification through high‐throughput RNA sequencing, whereas computational analyses reveal differential expression in cardiac disease settings.

Identification of a Circular RNA as a Potential Diagnostic and Prognostic Biomarker in Breast Cancer Through Integrated Bioinformatic and Experimental Analyses

Analytical Science Advances, Volume 7, Issue 2, December 2026.
Forty circular RNAs were found to be significantly dysregulated in microarray datasets. Expression levels of hsa_circ_0000231 were significantly upregulated in breast cancer (BC) tissues, while hsa_circ_0011385 exhibited no significant difference in expression levels. This study also revealed that hsa_circ_0000231/hsa‐miR‐5683/CCNB1 regulatory axis may
