Needle‐shaped diatom frustules in food as a possible promoter of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma in coastal southeastern China: A pilot study

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) incidence varies worldwide, suggesting that local environmental and dietary factors are influential. In coastal southeastern China, food products derived from small filter‐feeding fish are important dietary components, though their consumption increased ESCC risk.

Vascular Calcification: Mechanisms, Models, and Therapies

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vascular calcification represents an active multifactorial process that mirrors several key features of skeletal bone mineralization. Clinically, it is characterized by diminished arterial compliance and increased arterial wall stiffness, both of which serve as independent predictors of significant adverse cardiovascular events.

Organoids and organ‐on‐a‐chip models for investigating the pathophysiology of the human reproductive system

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
Organoids and organ‐on‐a‐chips are advancing reproductive system research. In the female reproductive system, applications include cancer organoid models, placental chips, and hormone simulation models. For the male reproductive system, research focuses on drug resistance mechanisms, co‐culture platforms, and infertility studies. These refined in vitro

Human coronary artery organ‐chip with circulating immune cells recapitulates anti‐inflammatory effect of pulsatile wall strain

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
A fully characterised organ‐on‐a‐chip model of the human coronary artery with endothelial and smooth muscle cells, plus circulating immune cells, created on the Emulate platform. The model successfully recapitulates the physiological effects of pulsatile vessel dilation on cell morphology and the localised inflammatory susceptibility to TNF‐α ...
