Excessive DNA Double‐Strand Breaks–Associated 3D Genome Reorganization Contributes to Neural Tube Defects with Folate Deficiency

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Neural tube defects (NTDs) are among the most common congenital malformations. However, the underlying etiology and mechanism remain elusive. Here, the role of DNA double‐strand breaks (DSBs) in 3D genome organization within the NTDs with folate deficiency is reported.

Deciphering the Role and Mechanism of Decidual Monocyte‐Derived Macrophage Infiltration in Obstetric Antiphospholipid Syndrome at Single‐Cell Resolution

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study uncovers a novel mechanism and therapeutic targets in obstetric antiphospholipid syndrome (OAPS). Antiphospholipid antibody/ß2‐glycoprotein I complex boosts CCL2 and TNF‐α expression in decidual macrophages via TLR4‐NF‐κB. CCL2 accumulates on endothelial surfaces via ACKR1, recruiting monocyte‐derived CCR2+ macrophages, driving inflammation,

BHLHE40 Cooperates with GATA2/3 to Control Human Syncytiotrophoblast Lineage Differentiation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
BHLHE40 interacts directly with GATA2 and GATA3 and co‐occupies genomic loci critical for STB differentiation and function. BHLHE40 also affects GATA2/3 binding at enhancer and promoter regions. Moreover, BHLHE40 is potentially involved in genome‐wide remodeling of H3K4me3 and H3K27ac chromatin landscapes through GATA2/3 recruitment, activating ...

A Multicenter Collaborative Study on the Safety and Efficacy of Laparoscopic Appendectomy During Pregnancy

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Laparoscopic appendectomy (LA) during pregnancy was evaluated in a multicenter retrospective study in Japan. LA showed comparable maternal and fetal safety to open appendectomy (OA), supporting the feasibility and safety of LA in pregnant patients. ABSTRACT Aim Acute appendicitis in pregnant women requires accurate diagnosis and treatment because of ...
