Porphyromonas gingivalis GroEL accelerates abdominal aortic aneurysm formation by matrix metalloproteinase‐2 SUMOylation in vascular smooth muscle cells: A novel finding for the activation of MMP‐2

Molecular Oral Microbiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Infection is a known cause of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), and matrix metalloproteases‐2 (MMP‐2) secreted by vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) plays a key role in the structural disruption of the middle layer of the arteries during AAA progression.

RAD51 and RAD51 paralog inhibition sensitizes nonreplicating quiescent keratinocytes to UV radiation

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
UV radiation and other compounds generate DNA adducts that block transcription and induce cell death if not removed by the nucleotide excision repair system. In this work, we used a small‐scale pharmacological screen to discover that inhibition of the recombinase RAD51 sensitized nonreplicating quiescent keratinocytes to both UVR and other agents that ...

Effect of artificial gravity on calcaneal bone marrow adipose tissue and mineral content in female and male participants in 60 days of bed rest

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Modulation of bone marrow adipose tissue (BMAT) with prolonged inactivity was reported in haemopoietic but not in non‐haemopoietic bones. This prospective randomized controlled trial submitted 16 men and 8 women to 60 days of 6° head‐down‐tilt bed rest.

Expression characteristics of dual‐specificity phosphatase 2 and hypoxia‐inducible factor‐1α in acute kidney injury and preliminary study of the effect of dual‐specificity phosphatase 2 on HK‐2 cells

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a global health problem with significant long‐term harm if the prognosis is poor. Dual‐specificity phosphatase 2 (DUSP2) is involved in key regulatory pathways in several disease processes, but its function in renal pathophysiology is unclear.

Mitochondrial alterations as potential early events in neuromuscular junction remodelling with muscle disuse

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Physical inactivity impairs neuromuscular health, promoting skeletal muscle atrophy, mitochondrial changes, and neuromuscular junction (NMJ) instability. However, the interplay between mitochondria and NMJ alterations in the context of muscle disuse remains underexplored.
