Flipping the Switch: MeCP2‐Mediated Lactylation Rewires Microglial Metabolism and Inflammation via the HK2/mTOR Axis in Poststroke Neuroinflammation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Stroke‐induced lactate accumulation promotes p300‐mediated lactylation of methyl‐CpG binding protein 2 (MeCP2) at lysine 210, which reprograms microglial metabolism toward glycolysis and activates the hexokinase 2 (HK2)/mTOR axis. This cascade promotes proinflammatory responses and impairs neurofunctional outcomes.

Cardiopulmonary bypass–mediated lung ischemia–reperfusion injury: A protective role of sitaxentan

Journal of International Medical Research
Background Cardiopulmonary bypass is widely used in cardiac surgery but often leads to lung ischemia–reperfusion injury, a major cause of morbidity and mortality. Despite advances in critical care, effective prevention remains challenging.

Evaluation of the Expression Levels of Endothelin-1 and its Receptor (ETAR) in Dental Lamina during Different Stages of Development of Human Fetal Teeth

پزشکی بالینی ابن سینا, 2021
Background and Objective: Due to the significant importance of the teeth in mastication, speech, and aesthetics, it is necessary to identify all involved genes in the tooth development. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the role of endothelin-1 and

Therapeutic efficacy of TBC3711 in monocrotaline-induced pulmonary hypertension

Respiratory Research, 2011
Background Endothelin-1 signalling plays an important role in pathogenesis of pulmonary hypertension. Although different endothelin-A receptor antagonists are developed, a novel therapeutic option to cure the disease is still needed.

Slow Receptor Dissociation Kinetics Differentiate Macitentan from Other Endothelin Receptor Antagonists in Pulmonary Arterial Smooth Muscle Cells

PLoS ONE, 2012
Two endothelin receptor antagonists (ERAs), bosentan and ambrisentan, are currently approved for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), a devastating disease involving an activated endothelin system and aberrant contraction and ...

Mechanisms underlying diabetes enhancement of endothelin-1-induced contraction in rabbit basilar artery [PDF]

, 2004
The influence of alloxan-induced diabetes on the reactivity of rabbit basilar artery to endothelin-1 was examined. Endothelin-1 induced concentration-dependent contraction of basilar arteries that was higher in diabetic than in control rabbits ...

Trojan Horse Strategy: How Biomimetic Nanomedicine Remodels the Tumor Microenvironment

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This review focuses on biomimetic nanomedicines for tumor microenvironment (TME) remodeling, covering their diverse biomimetic types, design principles, and mechanisms of immune cell reprogramming and reversal of immunosuppressive microenvironments, with particular emphasis on their application in synergistic immunotherapy.

Endothelin receptor A antagonism attenuates renal medullary blood flow impairment in endotoxemic pigs. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
BACKGROUND: Endothelin-1 is a potent endogenous vasoconstrictor that contributes to renal microcirculatory impairment during endotoxemia and sepsis. Here we investigated if the renal circulatory and metabolic effects of endothelin during endotoxemia are ...

HGF modulates actin cytoskeleton remodeling and contraction in testicular myoid cells [PDF]

, 2015
The presence of the HGF/Met system in the testicular myoid cells was first discovered by our group. However, the physiological role of this pathway remains poorly understood. We previously reported that HGF increases uPA secretion and TGF-β activation in

Case‐Based Immunology: B Cells and Systemic Sclerosis Interstitial Lung Disease

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is an important complication of systemic sclerosis (SSc), with high mortality and morbidity. Recent clinical studies in SSc‐ILD have led to US Food and Drug Administration–approved therapies in SSc‐ILD. Importantly, evidence from these studies has been extrapolated to guide management of ILDs of other systemic autoimmune
