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

Periostin‐CCL3 Feedforward Signaling Loop Promotes Cardiac Fibrosis and Cardiomyocyte Necroptosis in Arrhythmogenic Cardiomyopathy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
POSTN‐CCL3 signaling forms a feed‐forward circuit between cardiomyocytes and cardiac myofibroblasts in arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy. POSTN activates JNK/RIP3‐dependent necroptotic signaling and JNK/ETS2‐induced CCL3 expression in cardiomyocytes. In turn, CCL3‐CCR5 signaling in cardiac myofibroblasts activates NF‐κB/p65 and promotes POSTN expression ...

The Antidiabetic Potential of Alpha‐Mangostin: A Review of Preclinical and Clinical Evidence

AgriFood: Journal of Agricultural Products for Food, EarlyView.
Alpha‐mangostin is a compound from the pericarp of Garcinia mangostana. The antidiabetic effects of alpha‐mangostin include enhancing insulin secretion, improving glucose uptake through GLUT receptor upregulation, reducing oxidative stress and inflammation, promoting wound healing, reducing HbA1C, reducing HOMA‐IR index, and decreased mRNA expressions ...
