Cx47 fine-tunes the handling of serum lipids but is dispensable for lymphatic vascular function.

PLoS ONE, 2017
Mutations in the gap junction protein connexin47 (Cx47) are associated with lymphedema. However, the role of Cx47 in lymphatic pathophysiology is unknown.

SerpinA3 is an Endogenous TGF‐β Receptor Antagonist that Attenuates Cardiac Fibroblast Activation and Fibrotic Remodeling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
SerpinA3 acts as an endogenous TGF‐β receptor antagonist that binds to the extracellular domain of TGFR‐1, thereby preventing TGFR‐1–TGFR‐2 complex formation. This receptor‐level blockade suppresses TGF‐β/Smad2/3 signaling, attenuates cardiac fibroblast activation, and extracellular matrix deposition, and ultimately alleviates pressure overload–induced

Intracellular uptake of macromolecules by brain lymphatic endothelial cells during zebrafish embryonic development

eLife, 2017
The lymphatic system controls fluid homeostasis and the clearance of macromolecules from interstitial compartments. In mammals brain lymphatics were only recently discovered, with significant implications for physiology and disease. We examined zebrafish

Hyper‐Intense Tumor Peripheral Accumulation of Antibody‐Conjugated Iron Oxide Nanoparticles can Enable Breast Cancer Detection by Magnetic Particle Imaging

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Tumor‐associated inflammation retains antibody‐targeted or non‐specific antibody conjugated nanoparticles within the tumor microenvironment. Magnetic Particle Imaging (MPI) enables non‐invasive detection and differentiation of tumors from other organs, owing to higher nanoparticle retention by inflammatory cells in the tumor periphery.

AHR‐Responsive Carbon Dots Orchestrate Skin Wound Healing and Colonic Mucosal Repair via Treg‐Mediated Macrophage Efferocytosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Guided by pharmacophore modeling and molecular docking, aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR)‐responsive carbon dots were synthesized. They bind directly to AHR and expand gut‐resident regulatory T (Treg) cells. Treg‐derived C‐C motif chemokine ligand 1 (CCL1) enhances macrophage efferocytosis, creating a pro‐regenetative niche that promotes colonic mucosal ...

How cancer cells cross lymphatic endothelium?

, 2014
The lymphatic microcirculation is a key component of metastatic spread providing a pathway for cancer cell dissemination, and the endothelium seems to enhance or promote the invasiveness of certain cancer cells.

Single‐Nucleus Atlas of Spinal Sarcopenia Patients Reveals Disruption of Quiescent and Regenerative Satellite Cell Niches in Fatty‐Infiltrated Muscle

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Mechanisms of Fatty Infiltration and Muscle Degeneration. Clinical metadata identified intramuscular fat accumulation as an independent driver of muscle mass decline. Single‐nucleus RNA sequencing of spinal sarcopenia muscle revealed adipogenic reprogramming of fibro‐adipogenic progenitors, satellite‐cell niche disruption, and elevated levels of the ...
