Astrocytes as central integrators of neural circuit function: Mechanisms and dysregulation in neuropsychiatric disorders

open access: yesClinical and Translational Discovery, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2026.
1. Astrocytes are central integrators of neural circuit function through tripartite synapse modulation and neurovascular coupling. 2. Dysregulation of glutamate/GABA homeostasis and neuroinflammation represents shared mechanisms across diverse neuropsychiatric disorders. 3.

pH‐Dependent Microenvironmental Ionic Signaling in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma

open access: yesActa Physiologica, Volume 242, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) develops within a uniquely dynamic pH landscape shaped by substantial acid–base fluxes produced by the exocrine pancreas. Secretion of alkaline pancreatic juice, normally linked to digestion, produces intermittent acidifications of the pancreatic interstitium, which challenges epithelial and stromal ...

Targeting inflammation in cardiometabolic disease: Icosapent ethyl modulates monocyte‐derived macrophages isolated from patients with cardiovascular disease with or without type 2 diabetes

open access: yesDiabetic Medicine, Volume 43, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Aims Despite intensive lipid‐lowering therapy, individuals with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) exhibit residual inflammatory risk, which drives recurrent cardiovascular events. This risk is amplified in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), where a pro‐inflammatory milieu accelerates atherogenesis. Monocyte‐derived macrophages (MDMs)

Connexin 26 Functions as a Direct Transcriptional Regulator During the Cochlea Development

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 14, 9 March 2026.
Connexin26 can not only form intercellular channels that mediate rapid communication on the cell membrane, but also enter the nucleus as a transcription factor to directly regulate the transcription of nuclear genes. In the developing cochlea, Cx26 can control the maturation of the molecular scissor ADAM10 by regulating the transcription of TspanC8 ...

Endothelial Cell‐Based Vascular Bandages for Blood–Brain Barrier Repair and Targeted siRNA Delivery

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 13, 3 March 2026.
mECs restore blood–brain barrier function after cerebral ischemia–reperfusion by simultaneously targeting, supporting, and regulating the damaged vasculature. mECs home to injured cerebral vessels through interactions with highly expressed VLA‐4, reinforce endothelial integrity by forming new junctions, and, upon OGD‐SN treatment, acquire enhanced ...

GAP JUNCTION: Emphasis on Connexin 43

open access: yesActa Scientiae et Technicae
The junctions of the cell are complex structures that play a fundamental role in cellular communication. They are morphologically distinct and are divided into occlusion junctions, adherens junctions and gap junctions. This review has the objective of providing the main information about the gap junctions demonstrating its components and highlighting ...
