Nitric Oxide: Physiological Functions, Delivery, and Biomedical Applications
This review explores nitric oxide's (NO) roles in physiology and pathology while considering its advantages and limitations. Progress in designing versatile materials as NO donors and carriers for bioavailability and function at target sites is discussed. It summarizes therapeutic potential, challenges, and prospects in biomedicine.

Changes of globins expression in tongue sole, Cynoglossus semilaevis (Actinopterygii: Pleuronectiformes: Cynoglossidae) in response to short-term hypoxia [PDF]
Background. Fishes live in the aquatic systems which are first affected by low or temporally changing O2 availability. Under hypoxia, the fish possess varieties of mechanism to ensure the uptake of an adequate amount of O2.

Nitric Oxide Production and Regulation in the Teleost Cardiovascular System
Nitric Oxide (NO) is a free radical with numerous critical signaling roles in vertebrate physiology. Similar to mammals, in the teleost system the generation of sufficient amounts of NO is critical for the physiological function of the cardiovascular ...

Programmed cell death mainly include ferroptosis (A), necroptosis (B), and pyroptosis (C), which are morphologically similar and can induce severe inflammatory responses. Notably, ferroptosis, necroptosis, and pyroptosis also participate in the occurrence and development of cancers.

p63 is a key regulator of iRHOM2 signalling in the keratinocyte stress response. [PDF]
Hyperproliferative keratinocytes induced by trauma, hyperkeratosis and/or inflammation display molecular signatures similar to those of palmoplantar epidermis.

Calcineurin Activates Cytoglobin Transcription in Hypoxic Myocytes [PDF]
Cardiac hypertrophy develops in response to a variety of cardiovascular stresses and results in activation of numerous signaling cascades and proteins. In the present study, we demonstrate that cytoglobin is a stress-responsive hemoprotein in the hypoxia-induced hypertrophic myocardium and it is transcriptionally regulated by calcineurin-dependent ...

Patent foramen ovale (PFO), a congenital heart disease causing right‐to‐left shunt, is considered as one etiological factor of neurological chronic diseases with episodic manifestations (NCDEMs). PFO closure can improve NCDEMs and relieve hypoxic state.

Neuroglobin and cytoglobin [PDF]
Neuroglobin and cytoglobin are two recently discovered members of the vertebrate globin family. Both are intracellular proteins endowed with hexacoordinated heme‐Fe atoms, in their ferrous and ferric forms, and display O2 affinities comparable with that of myoglobin.

Stellate cell in hepatic inflammation and acute injury
Abstract The perisinusoidal hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) have been investigated extensively for their role as the major fibrogenic cells during chronic liver injury. HSCs also produce numerous cytokines, chemokines, and growth mediators, and express cell adhesion molecules constitutively and in response to stimulants such as endotoxin ...

Abstract Hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) play an important role in liver fibrosis; however, owing to the heterogeneity and limited supply of primary HSCs, the development of in vitro liver fibrosis models has been impeded. In this study, we established and characterized a novel human HSC line (LSC‐1), and applied it to various types of three‐dimensional (
