Liraglutide Ameliorates Injury‐Related Vascular Repair by Activating Autophagy Through Modulation of the PI3K–mTOR Signaling Pathway

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 1, 15 January 2026.
Liraglutide inhibits chronic stress‐induced vascular injury in mice by inhibiting the activation of the PI3K‐mTOR signaling pathway and promoting autophagy of smooth muscle cells or macroautophagy. ABSTRACT Chronic stress is a significant risk factor for postoperative restenosis and other cardiovascular diseases, as it can promote the intimal ...

Endothelial BMP6 Drives Hemodynamic‐Dependent VSMCs Calcification in Carotid Atherosclerosis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 2, 9 January 2026.
The study demonstrates that endothelial cell (EC)‐derived BMP6 promotes the osteogenic differentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) through cell‐cell interactions. Additionally, the researchers preliminarily explore the driving effect of hemodynamic factors on BMP6‐induced calcification and reveal the regulatory role of KLF4 on BMP6.
