Mechanical stiffness orchestrates distinct regulation of MRTFs and YAP/TAZ transcriptional cofactors in hepatocytes

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
MRTFs and YAP/TAZ proteins, or mechanosensitive transcriptional cofactors (MRTcoF), regulate common genes associated with cellular contractility and immune cell infiltration. Their differential regulation in response to stiffness is linked to changes in hepatocyte's aspect ratio. MRTFB does not undergo nuclear translocation under these conditions. This

Temporal shifts in antiretroviral therapy regimens and metabolic outcomes in people living with HIV: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

HIV Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Antiretroviral therapy (ART) for people living with HIV has led to dramatically reduced mortality and improved life expectancy. This achievement is accompanied by a higher risk for metabolic and other non‐communicable diseases. The role and contribution of various ART regimens to adverse metabolic outcomes are not fully understood.

Preparation and characterization of PLGA Nanoparticles containing recombinant core-NS3 Fusion protein of hepatitis C virus as a nano-vaccine candidate

Vaccine Research, 2017
Introduction: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is one of the most serious causes of cirrhosis, liver cancer and ultimately death, worldwide. The new direct-acting drugs are not accessible for many patients around the world and progress toward new therapeutic and ...

Transcriptomic profiling of subpopulations of mouse embryonic subplate neurons

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
To study gene expression in subpopulations of cortical subplate neurons (Lpar1‐EGFP‐positive and D1B‐positive SpN clusters), we applied gene expression profiling, including bulk microarray analysis, single‐cell RNA sequencing (scRNA‐seq), and Visium spatial transcriptomics, and identified both overlapping and unique gene expression signatures ...

Breaking Out of Low‐Effort Traps: Bureaucratic Leadership by Persuasion

Governance, Volume 39, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper tests if bureaucratic leadership impacts the quality of service provision of a difficult‐to‐monitor task: learning in public schools. Using the empirical case of rural India, it exploits an administrative setup with two types of bureaucrats for the same spatial unit, the district, that either have more authority or more ability to ...

Transcriptomic signatures reveal systemic adaptations and immune modulation in response to training and competitive racing in horses

Equine Veterinary Journal, Volume 58, Issue 5, Page 1413-1444, September 2026.
Abstract Background The molecular mechanisms underlying adaptation to physical exertion and racing stress in horses remain incompletely understood. Peripheral blood transcriptomics offers a minimally invasive method to monitor systemic responses to exercise and identify biomarkers of adaptation or overload. Objectives To evaluate transcriptomic changes

Physiological Quality of Passiflora edulis Fruits and Seeds in Relation to Ripening Stages and Postharvest Storage of Fruits

New Zealand Journal of Crop and Horticultural Science, Volume 54, Issue 3, September 2026.
Yellow fruits produce seeds with greater vigor, antioxidant activity, and enzymatic performance, while fruit firmness is associated with seed physiological quality. In addition, seeds from yellow fruits maintain high germination capacity after long‐term storage.

Molecular Mechanisms of Age‐Related Taste Dysfunction Deciphered by Spatiotemporal Transcriptomics

Aging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 9, September 2026.
Multi‐omics profiling reveals that aging impairs stem/progenitor cell differentiation and taste bud regeneration in the posterior tongue. Age‐related macrophage polarization remodeling, marked by the accumulation of pro‐inflammatory M1 macrophages, contributes to a Thbs1‐enriched inhibitory niche that limits taste cell growth and differentiation ...

Quantifying Daily Vertical Heat Flux in the Loop Current System: A Quasi‐Lagrangian Assessment of Frontal Hotspots

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract Vertical heat exchange within the upper ocean critically influences regional climate but remains difficult to observe directly. In the Gulf of Mexico, the Loop Current and its associated eddies significantly enhance this exchange. High‐resolution glider observations reveal that this transport is dominated by sub‐daily variability an order of ...

Tuning Mechanoreceptor Signaling Enhances the Adjuvant Effect of Biomaterial Vaccines

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 66, 17 August 2026.
Matrix stiffness serves as an independent immunological signal in biomaterial vaccines. Stiffer microporous hydrogel vaccines enhance dendritic cell maturation and migration to draining lymph nodes, promote T follicular helper cell expansion through Yap/Taz signaling, and increase antigen‐specific antibody production.
