Oestrous cycle stage influences the morphology and maturation of porcine oocytes in vitro
The objective of the study was to characterize the effect of the oestrous cycle stage on the yield, morphology and meiotic competence of porcine oocytes. A total of 46 cycling gilts, at 8.5-9 months of age, were used as oocyte donors.

The release of COL6A3 by fibroblasts is sensed by the CD44 receptor on melanocytes, activating glutathione (GSH) metabolism and increasing melanocyte survival during skin organoid culture. SEMA3C released by bulge cells binds to the NRP1 receptor on melanocytes, regulating microtubule stability and promoting melanocyte recruitment and function during ...

Bidirectional Interaction Between the Brain and Bone in Traumatic Brain Injury
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) disrupts the blood–brain barrier and activates neuroimmune responses, causing metabolic disturbances and long‐term bone mass loss. Concurrent fractures accelerate healing and enhance osteogenesis but disrupt regulatory mechanisms, leading to altered bone dynamics and exacerbating neuroinflammation, complicating recovery ...
