The impact of parity on the risk of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease defined by hepatic steatosis index: A nationwide cohort study

open access: yesScientific Reports
Despite the impact of pregnancy and parity on the prevalence of metabolic diseases, there are limited epidemiologic data regarding the association between parity and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).

Switching Spike Plasticity Shapes ACE2 Engagement Across SARS‐CoV‐2 Variants

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Conformational plasticity governs SARS‐CoV‐2 spike function and ACE2 recognition. Using high‐speed AFM and single‐molecule force spectroscopy, we analyzed the ancestral spike and nine variants, revealing progressive rigidification from Delta, variable plasticity in Omicron sublineages, and JN.1 compaction.

Tumor Exposomics: A New Paradigm for Individualized Continuous Exposure Monitoring

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Tumor exposomics integrates continuous monitoring of environmental exposures, endogenous biological responses, and behavioral factors within a unified temporal framework. By combining multimodal sensing technologies with AI‐enabled causal modeling, this emerging paradigm reconstructs exposure‐damage trajectories and supports individualized dynamic risk

Transient Sleep Deprivation Induces Persistent Auditory Neuropathy via ROS‐Initiated Neuroinflammation and BK Channel Suppression

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Sleep disturbance severity closely tracks hearing loss in a clinical cohort, yet the mechanistic link remains unclear. Acute sleep deprivation is shown to trigger transient cochlear oxidative stress that switches into a self‐sustaining neuroinflammatory state, suppressing BK channels and causing irreversible synaptopathy.

Association of ApoE polymorphisms with prevalent hypertension in 1406 older adults: the Bambuí Health Aging Study (BHAS)

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2008
Apolipoprotein E (ApoE) polymorphism influences lipid metabolism, but its association with arterial hypertension is controversial. The objective of this study was to examine the association between ApoE polymorphism and prevalent hypertension in a large ...

The GPX3‐VCAM1 Axis Gates Pro‐Fibrotic Tubule Cell Fate in Hyperuricemic Nephropathy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Hyperuricemia induces NLRP3 inflammasome signaling activation and downregulation of GPX3 in proximal tubular epithelial cells, leading to oxidative stress–driven VCAM1 upregulation, emergence of pro‐fibrotic proximal tubule cells, macrophage recruitment, and renal fibrosis.

Proteogenomic Profiling of Idiopathic Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension Identifies Sex‐Differential Proteins and Candidate Therapeutic Targets

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
An integrated proteogenomic analysis of 44,137 predominantly European‐ancestry UK Biobank participants aged 40–69 years identifies 12 robust proteins associated with idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension. These proteins define a high‐mortality molecular endotype, support early detection and mortality prediction, reveal sex‐differential proteomic ...
