Role of focal adhesion kinase in regulating YB-1-mediated paclitaxel resistance in ovarian cancer
We previously found focal adhesion kinase (FAK) inhibition sensitizes ovarian cancer to taxanes; however, the mechanisms are not well ...

Focal adhesion kinase signaling in cardiac hypertrophy and failure
Focal adhesion kinase (FAK) is a broadly expressed tyrosine kinase implicated in cellular functions such as migration, growth and survival. Emerging data support a role for FAK in cardiac development, reactive hypertrophy and failure.

Hyaluronic Acid Modulates IL1β‐Induced Cytokine Profile of Gingival Mesenchymal Stem Cells
ABSTRACT Aim Hyaluronic acid (HA) possesses anti‐inflammatory properties critical for periodontal wound healing. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the role of cross‐linked high‐molecular‐weight (HMW) HA on cytokine mRNA expression, cell viability and migration in IL‐1β‐stimulated gingival mesenchymal stem cells (gMSCs).

Impact of systemic diseases on periodontal remodeling: Mechanisms, mediators, and clinical relevance
Abstract Background Periodontal remodeling is a continuous, adaptive process essential for maintaining the structural and functional integrity of periodontal tissues. While external factors such as bacterial biofilm, excessive forces, and poor oral hygiene are recognized triggers of periodontal pathologies, they do not fully explain their persistent ...

Periodontitis and metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease
Abstract Objective Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease with systemic effects that extend beyond the oral cavity and contribute to systemic immune and metabolic dysregulation. Chronic liver diseases, particularly metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and its progressive phenotypes, have emerged as major global ...

Putting the brakes on muscle growth: Myostatin as regulator of disuse atrophy
Abstract Skeletal muscle is a highly plastic tissue that rapidly adapts to changes in mechanical loading and metabolic activity. Periods of inactivity, including bed rest, limb immobilization or microgravity, induce a pronounced loss of muscle mass and function.
