Diabetes‐induced vascular calcification is associated with low pyrophosphate and its oral supplementation prevents calcification in diabetic mice

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Induction of diabetes in three different mouse strains uniformly resulted in an increase in TNAP activity and a reduction in pyrophosphate (PPi) in the circulation. Inhibition of TNAP restored plasma PPi. Diabetes‐induced calcification in the media layer of the aorta was detected only in the Abcc6−/− strain, which is predisposed to ectopic ...

Protection of HT22 neuronal cells against chemically-induced ferroptosis by catechol estrogens: protein disulfide isomerase as a mechanistic target

open access: yesScientific Reports
Ferroptosis is a form of regulated cell death, characterized by excessive iron-dependent lipid peroxidation. Biochemically, ferroptosis can be selectively induced by erastin through glutathione depletion or through inhibition of glutathione peroxidase 4 ...

Treating lupus nephritis patients to lupus low disease activity reduces renal relapse and preserves long‐term kidney function

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective Lupus low disease activity state (LLDAS) is a validated treatment target in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) but limited studies have explored the role of LLDAS in lupus nephritis (LN). This study aims to investigate the frequency and predictors of LLDAS attainment, and its benefit on LN relapse and renal function preservation in patients ...
