Fibro‐Adipogenic Progenitors From Skeletal Muscle Enhance Microvascular Angiogenesis in a 3D Model
Advanced Biology, Volume 10, Issue 10, October 2026.Fibro‐adipogenic progenitors (FAPs) are skeletal muscle stem cells that reside between fibers and near capillaries. However, relatively few studies have investigated interactions between FAPs and the microvasculature. We demonstrate that FAPs enhance angiogenesis of microvascular fragments (MVFs) by promoting increases in vessel percentage area and ...

Insights Into the Role of Platelet Factor 4 in Neurodegenerative Diseases
CNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 32, Issue 10, October 2026.This review summarizes potential functions of platelet factor 4 (PF4) in neurodegenerative diseases (NDs) and discusses its promise as both a biomarker and a therapeutic target. Further elucidation of PF4 signaling pathways may provide new insights into disease mechanisms and uncover novel opportunities for targeted interventions in NDs.

Exercise Modulates the Osteoimmune Axis: Myokine‐Mediated Mechanisms in Diabetic Bone Disease
Diabetes/Metabolism Research and Reviews, Volume 42, Issue 7, October 2026.Exercise activates skeletal muscle to release myokines (irisin, acute IL‐6, IL‐15 and BAIBA) and suppress myostatin, which may help counteract T2DM‐induced hyperglycemia, AGE accumulation, chronic inflammation and osteoimmune imbalance, potentially contributing to improved bone quality and reduced fracture risk.

Fibro‐Adipogenic Progenitor Ablation Triggers Muscle Atrophy Through Cell Death‐Induced Inflammation
Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 17, Issue 5, October 2026.ABSTRACT Background Skeletal muscle mass maintenance involves coordination of myofibers with mononuclear cell populations, including satellite cells, resident macrophages and fibro‐adipogenic progenitors (FAPs). FAPs, identified by surface expression of PDGFRα, are important contributors to muscle homeostasis, as genetic ablation of FAPs induces rapid ...

SIRT6 Activation Improves Intervertebral Disc Health in the Aging Spine
Aging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 10, October 2026.Our studies for the first time underscore the feasibility of long‐term SIRT6 activation as a pharmacological strategy to maintain the health of the intervertebral disc in the aging spine. ABSTRACT Aging is a critical risk factor for intervertebral disc degeneration, a major contributor to chronic low back pain.
