Effects of Bone Morphogenetic Protein‐7 on Steroid‐Induced Extracellular Matrix Accumulation in Human Trabecular Meshwork Cells

open access: yesFASEB BioAdvances, EarlyView.
Long‐term steroid use can elevate intraocular pressure (IOP) and lead to steroid‐induced glaucoma by promoting extracellular matrix (ECM) accumulation in the trabecular meshwork (TM). This study demonstrates that bone morphogenetic protein‐7 (BMP‐7), delivered via a micellized protein transduction domain (mPTD), effectively inhibits steroid‐induced ECM

Compressive Forces Induce Epigenetic Activation of Aged Human Dermal Fibroblasts Through ERK Signaling Pathway

open access: yesAging Cell, EarlyView.
Direct activation and rejuvenation of aged fibroblasts through the application of mechanical forces in a 3D spheroid culture model. The ERK signaling pathway was revealed as a key underlying mechanism. ABSTRACT Age‐related changes in human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs) contribute to impaired wound healing and skin aging.

Dietary Restriction Mitigates Vascular Aging, Modulates the cGAS‐STING Pathway and Reverses Macrophage‐Like VSMC Phenotypes in Progeroid DNA‐Repair‐Deficient Ercc1Δ/− Mice

open access: yesAging Cell, EarlyView.
Dietary restriction mitigates vascular aging in DNA‐repair‐deficient Ercc1Δ/− mice by reducing extracellular matrix remodeling, inflammation, oxidative stress, and switching of vascular smooth muscle cells to a macrophage‐like phenotype. Our findings suggest that the cGAS‐STING pathway plays a key role in vascular aging and that the benefits of dietary

Late Life Supplementation of 25‐Hydroxycholesterol Reduces Aortic Stiffness and Cellular Senescence in Mice

open access: yesAging Cell, EarlyView.
25‐hydroxycholesterol (25HC) targets senescent cell anti‐apoptotic pathways (SCAPs) to reduce vascular cell senescence, favorably remodel aortic wall components, and reduce aortic stiffening with advancing age. ABSTRACT Stiffening of the aorta is a key antecedent to cardiovascular diseases (CVD) with aging.
