Adenosine—A Regulator of Human Testicular Peritubular Cells

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Extracellular purines, in particular ATP and adenosine, are regulators of physiological and pathophysiological processes throughout the human body. Roles in the human testis are emerging and include actions on peritubular cells, which form the wall of seminiferous tubules.

Role of ANO1‐Expressing PDGFRα+ Smooth Muscle Cells in Generating Spontaneous Phasic Contractions of the Rodent Epididymis

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Spontaneous phasic contractions (SPCs) in the epididymal duct play an important role in transport and maturation of sperm. In proximal cauda of the rat epididymis, platelet‐derived growth factor receptor α (PDGFRα)‐positive smooth muscle cells (SMCs) generate ANO1 Ca2+‐activated chloride channels (CaCCs)‐dependent spontaneous ...

Minocycline and bone marrow–derived mononuclear cells as potential therapeutics for hereditary retinal degenerations

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To assess in Royal College of Surgeons (RCS) rats if the combination of two previously documented neuroprotective strategies: minocycline administration and bone marrow–derived mononuclear cells (BM‐MNCs) intravitreal transplantation, offers enhanced neuroprotection compared with each treatment alone.

Radial outer retina reflectivity (RORR) sign in LAMP2‐associated retinopathy

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To describe the radial outer retina reflectivity (RORR) sign in patients carrying pathogenic variants in the X‐linked lysosome‐associated membrane protein‐2 (LAMP2) gene and to review the histologic characteristics of LAMP2 expression in the human retina.
