Zinc‐Containing Bioactive Glass Programs Macrophage Polarization through Extracellular Traps Regulation for Enhanced Diabetic Wound Healing

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 15, 17 April 2026.
Zinc‐containing bioactive glass (ZnBG) promotes diabetic wound healing by regulating macrophage extracellular traps (METs). Specifically, ZnBG reduces oxidative stress and inhibits the PAD4 and NLRP3/caspase‐1/GSDMD signaling pathways, thereby suppressing MET formation.

Advances in the Treatment of Sensorineural Hearing Loss: From Traditional Therapies to Stem Cell and Gene Therapies

open access: yesAdvanced Sensor Research, Volume 5, Issue 4, April 2026.
Sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) occurs in 1.5 billion globally, primary driven by damage of cochlear hair cells and spiral ganglion neurons. This review systematically examines current therapeutic strategies for sensorineural hearing loss, including traditional drug and physical therapies as well as emerging stem cell and gene therapies, providing a ...

Connexins

open access: yes
Connexins are tetraspan transmembrane proteins that form gap junctions and facilitate direct intercellular communication, a critical feature for the development, function, and homeostasis of tissues and organs. In addition, a growing number of gap junction-independent functions are being ascribed to these proteins.

Connexin43 Deficiency Leads to Ventricular Arrhythmias by Reprogramming Proline Metabolism

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 19, 2 April 2026.
The study demonstrated that connexin43 (Cx43) knockout caused arrhythmic phenotype and decreased proline content in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, Cx43 interacts with the amino acid transporter SNAT2 (sodium‐dependent neutral amino acid transporter), and its deficiency disrupts proline transport and metabolism.

Knockout of Low‐Density Lipoprotein Receptor‐Related Protein 1 From Astrocytes in Adult Mice Accelerates Long‐Term Functional Recovery After Ischemic Stroke

open access: yesBrain and Behavior, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
We find that loss of LRP1 in astrocytes improves long‐term outcomes after ischemic stroke and is associated with reduced gliosis. Our findings suggest a role for LRP1 in astrocyte reactivity and response to stroke. ABSTRACT Purpose Ischemic stroke is a primary cause of death and disability worldwide; however, therapeutic opportunities are limited ...

Pathological Roles of Astrocytes in Traumatic Brain Injury

open access: yesCNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 32, Issue 4, April 2026.
TBI induces intrinsic astrocytic changes, including reactive astrogliosis, A1 and A2 polarization, ion channels activation, pathological edema, oxidative stress, and metabolic dysregulation. These injury‐responsive astrocytes regulate neuroinflammation and tissue remodeling through dynamic crosstalk with microglia, macrophages, vascular endothelial ...

Cellular Characterization Using Microwave‐Assisted Immunocytochemistry, A Time‐Efficient Alternative to Traditional Immunocytochemistry

open access: yesCurrent Protocols, Volume 6, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Immunocytochemistry (ICC) and immunohistochemistry (IHC) are related but separate techniques used for cell and tissue characterization. ICC involves immunolabeling of cells, and IHC immunolabeling of tissues; thus, the main difference is sample thickness. However, the distinction between ICC and IHC is not always clear and can be confusing. We
