“Yet the Problem Remains”: Why Genetic Determinism Still Haunts Biomedical Research

Bioethics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT After the horrors of the Holocaust and its connections to eugenics were revealed to the world, many post‐war population geneticists sought to establish rhetorical distance from the Nazi's state‐led campaigns, without abandoning their belief that actively shaping the population's genetics would produce a prosperous society.

Opening closed inward rectifier potassium channel doors

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Inwardly rectifying potassium (KIR) channels are essential regulators of membrane potential in excitable and non‐excitable tissues. Although KIR channels exhibit a biophysical preference for potassium influx due to voltage‐dependent block of outward current by polyamines and Mg2+, under physiological conditions, they predominantly mediate K+ efflux ...

Higher sensitivity to ouabain‐induced toxicity in human induced pluripotent stem cell‐derived cardiomyocytes than human adult heart tissue despite similar Na+/K+‐ATPase pump current amplitudes

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Human induced pluripotent stem cell‐derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC‐CM) have gained interest as a pharmacological model but their immaturity leads to uncertainty regarding translation. We studied the key player in maintaining ionic homeostasis, the Na+/K+‐ATPase (NKA), in hiPSC‐CM.

Second‐generation prokineticin PKR1 receptor agonists: Advancing cardioprotection against chemotherapy‐induced toxicity

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
IS39, a novel non‐peptide PKR1 agonist, confers cardioprotection against doxorubicin‐induced toxicity. IS39 activates PKR1‐mediated pro‐survival signalling in cardiomyocytes, reducing reactive oxygen species (ROS), DNA damage and fibrosis markers. In vivo, IS39 preserves cardiac geometry and function in mice exposed to chronic doxorubicin challenge ...

Mechanism of Cardiac Arrest in Fatal Anaphylaxis

Clinical &Experimental Allergy, EarlyView.
This population‐based retrospective cohort study of clinical deterioration in anaphylaxis deaths identifies bronchospasm as the preponderant cause of cardiac arrest, especially in food and drug allergen exposures. The clinical implication is that anaphylaxis guidelines require appropriate emphasis on respiratory involvement and treatment to prevent ...

Mechanobiology in Stem Cell‐Based Bioprinting

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Mechanobiology in stem cell‐based bioprinting is an emerging field that bridges the mechanical conditions of the bioprinting process with the regulation of stem cell behaviour for engineering living tissues. Stresses encountered during bioprinting, together with the mechanical properties of bioinks, play a critical role in regulating stem cell ...

The proteomic differences and expression of fatty acid‐binding protein 6 (FABP6) associated with gastrointestinal injury in horses with oral administration of a clinical dose of phenylbutazone

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Phenylbutazone (PBZ) can potentially induce gastrointestinal ulceration, and early detection of PBZ‐induced gastroenteropathy will be useful for the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of PBZ toxicity. Objectives To identify putative proteins associated with equine gastric ulcer syndrome after clinical dose (4.4 mg/kg ...

Reliability, agreement and variability of a markerless computer vision algorithm for equine gait analysis under field conditions

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Computer vision‐based algorithms offer accessible alternatives for equine gait analysis but require thorough assessment under diverse conditions. Objectives To evaluate a proprietary vision‐based algorithm's reliability in measuring vertical displacement signals (VDS) at the eye, withers and croup, alongside groundline estimation ...
