ABSTRACT Intra‐tumoral heterogeneity poses a major challenge to treating and managing cancer patients. A characteristic feature of melanoma is its composition of cancer cells with typically heterogeneous content of melanin pigment, the production of which is a hallmark of normal melanocytic differentiation but of poorly understood consequence in ...

Aided by FABP5, abnormally elevated asprosin in hepatocytes enters the nucleus, targets and inhibits PPARα binding to the CPT1A promoter, thereby suppressing FAO. Circulating asprosin exacerbates insulin resistance, collectively driving MASLD progression.

Antioxidant Natural Plant Constituents for Diabetic Wound Repair
Antioxidant natural plant constituents promote diabetic wound repair by ameliorating oxidative stress, inhibiting inflammatory responses, and promoting tissue regeneration. ABSTRACT Diabetes mellitus is a prevalent metabolic disorder characterized by a prolonged hyperglycemic state, which can result in complications affecting multiple organ systems ...

Fiber Type‐Specific Proteomic Alterations in R349P Desminopathy Mice
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Desminopathies are a group of rare human myopathies and cardiomyopathies caused by pathogenic variants of the desmin gene. Here, we analyzed the effects of the R349P mutant desmin on the proteomic profiles of individual fiber types of murine skeletal muscle.

Compound heterozygous mutations in FBN1 in a large family with Marfan syndrome
Background Marfan syndrome (MFS) is a dominant monogenic disorder caused by mutations in fibrillin 1 (FBN1). Rarely, compound heterozygosity for FBN1 mutations has been described. Methods A large kindred with MFS was assessed clinically over decades, and

Corneal characteristics in children with Marfan syndrome with or without ectopia lentis
Children with Marfan Syndrome who have dislocation of the natural lens of the eye also have abnormalities of eye shape and size. These abnormalities are not apparent in Marfan's children who do not have lens dislocation, implying that the children with lens dislocation have a more severe genetic defect of fibrillin proteins.

Abstract Asprosin, a protein that enhances insulin resistance by stimulating hepatic glucose secretion, is linked to obesity, metabolic disorders, and cardiovascular diseases. This systematic review and meta‐analysis investigate the influence of exercise training (ET) on circulating concentrations of asprosin.
