COL1A1+ Epithelial Cells Orchestrate VEGFA‐VEGFR Signaling in Endometritis Revealed by Single‐Cell Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
Single‐cell RNA‐seq of normal and endometritis endometrium shows reduced epithelial cells and fate divergence toward ferroptosis or ribosome/antigen‐presentation programs. COL1A1+ epithelial cells act as an AP‐1–driven hub that enhances VEGFA–VEGFR signaling and remodels the vascular microenvironment.

Endocytosis of IgG, Desmoglein 1, and Plakoglobin in Pemphigus Foliaceus Patient Skin

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2019
Pemphigus foliaceus (PF) is one of the two main forms of pemphigus and is characterized by circulating IgG to the desmosomal cadherin desmoglein 1 (DSG1) and by subcorneal blistering of the skin.

Dipeptidyl Peptidase‐4 Inhibitor Use and Risk of Pemphigus Vulgaris and Foliaceus: A Retrospective Cohort Study Using Databases of the Korea National Health Insurance Claims and the National Health Screening Examination

open access: yesThe Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although population‐based studies have reported an increased risk of bullous pemphigoid and pemphigus associated with dipeptidyl peptidase‐4 (DPP‐4) inhibitors, there is limited, well‐designed epidemiological evidence for pemphigus vulgaris (PV), which has only been supported by case reports thus far.

Elevated CO2 and Temperature Alter Grass Pollen's Ability to Modify Transcriptome and Function of the Nasal Epithelium

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
We exposed human nasal epithelial tissues to pollen from grasses grown under different climate treatments (temperature and CO2). Pollen weakened epithelial tight junctions and altered cytokine‐related gene expression, with similar protein‐level effects.

The Functional Role and Molecular Characterization of the Therapeutic Target CLDN6 in Germ Cell Tumors

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The tight junction protein CLDN6 has been identified as a cancer‐associated cell surface marker that is rarely expressed in healthy tissues. In testicular germ cell tumors (GCT), CLDN6 is particularly detectable in seminomas, embryonal carcinomas, and choriocarcinomas.

Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia: Clinical Characteristics and Identification of Novel Desmosome Gene Mutations

open access: yesJournal of the Formosan Medical Association, 2008
Background/Purpose: Desmosome gene mutations have been reported in patients with arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia (ARVD). However, there are hardly any genetic studies in Asians.

Diacerein Disrupts Testicular Homeostasis: The Essential Role of Basal Cytokines in Maintaining Sertoli Cell Integrity and the Immune Microenvironment

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pro‐inflammatory cytokines, TNF and IL‐1B, are essential for testicular homeostasis. Diacerein, an anti‐inflammatory drug, inhibits these cytokines, impairing M2 macrophages and Leydig cells (LCs). However, its impact on Sertoli cells (SCs) and M1 (CD68) macrophages remains unknown.

Elevated IL‐4 and IL‐13 Expression in Hailey‐Hailey Disease: Evidence for Th2‐Mediated Pathogenesis and Targeted Treatment

open access: yesJournal of Cutaneous Pathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Hailey‐Hailey disease (HHD) is a rare autosomal dominant blistering disorder caused by mutations in the ATP2C1 gene, which impair keratinocyte adhesion through disrupted calcium signaling. While traditionally considered a structural defect, recent studies suggest that Th2‐mediated inflammation may exacerbate disease pathology ...
