Oat β‐Glucan and Galactooligosaccharides Influence Gallstone Formation by Modulating the Gut Microbiota, Particularly Desulfovibrionales

iMetaMed, EarlyView.
Oat β‐glucan and galactooligosaccharides influence the formation of gallstones by modulating the gut microbiota, particularly the abundance of Desulfovibrionales. The primary mechanism involves metabolic byproducts associated with Desulfovibrionales inhibiting hepatic bile acid synthesis via both the hepatic FXR–SHP and intestinal FXR–FGF15 signaling ...

Therapeutic Gene Editing: DNA Repair Pathways, Emerging Editors, and Clinical Progress

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The field of gene editing has evolved rapidly over the past decade, progressing from programmable zinc‐finger nucleases (ZFNs) and transcription activator‐like effector nucleases (TALENs) to the widespread adoption of CRISPR‐Cas systems. First‐generation editors catalyzed genome engineering by introducing targeted double‐strand breaks (DSBs ...

Schisantherin A: Remodeling Gut Microbiota to Activate the Gut–Immune–Neural–Adipose Axis for Thermogenesis

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The global obesity epidemic necessitates safe and effective strategies to enhance energy expenditure. Schisantherin A (Sin A), a lignan derived from Schisandra chinensis, has demonstrated metabolic benefits, yet its systemic mechanism remains unclear.

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.

Lipid Profile Alterations Across Coronary Heart Disease, Metabolic Syndrome, and Nephrotic Syndrome

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
CHD, MetS, and NS exhibit distinct dyslipidemia patterns. TC, TG, ApoB, ApoE, and sdLDL‐C are key markers for disease differentiation. This study found that elevated TC and sdLDL‐C were key pathogenic factors in CHD. In contrast, TG and ApoB played significant roles in the pathogenesis of MetS.

Longitudinal 4D Flow MRI‐Derived Wall Shear Stress in Patients With an Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background 4D flow MRI‐derived parameters such as wall shear stress (WSS) may improve abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) progression prediction. Validation of this biomarker is needed, but longitudinal data are lacking. Purpose Investigate longitudinal WSS changes and associations with AAA morphology. Study Type Prospective.
