The Many Roles of Galectin-3, a Multifaceted Molecule, in Innate Immune Responses against Pathogens
Galectins are a group of evolutionarily conserved proteins with the ability to bind β-galactosides through characteristic carbohydrate-recognition domains (CRD). Galectin-3 is structurally unique among all galectins as it contains a C-terminal CRD linked

Cardiac remodelling and fibrosis after myocardial infarction or during chronic diseases, such as arterial and pulmonary hypertension or diabetes mellitus, continue to be the more important prognostic factors in determining survival, and so the search for effective anti‐fibrotic interventions is an important target for research and therapy in cardiology.

This article describes the unusual cytology features of a DICER1‐mutated thyroid nodule. Fine needle aspiration revealed predominantly cell debris/degenerated cells and rare viable follicular cells with mild cytologic atypia. Surgical resection revealed a nodule with nearly complete infarction, which is one specific feature of DICER1‐mutated thyroid ...

A guide to the types, structures, and multifaceted functions of matrix metalloproteinases in cancer
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) orchestrate cancer progression and metastasis through proteolytic and non‐proteolytic actions. By remodeling the tumor microenvironment, enhancing growth factor availability, and modulating cell behavior, MMPs promote proliferation, migration or invasion, and epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition. Alongside extracellular

ABSTRACT The prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) increases during pregnancy and is associated with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), although its clinical impact on birth outcomes remains unclear. We aimed to assess the effect of several OSA criteria and intermittent hypoxia in the third trimester on perinatal outcomes in women with GDM.

Acidic pH Restricts Non‐Tuberculous Mycobacteria Replication
Different nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) species display unique replication profiles in acidic pH in vitro which correlates to their replication within human macrophages. Inhibition of the acidic environments within the macrophage enhances bacterial viability emphasising the role of acidic pH during NTM infections.

Background and Purpose Novel heart failure (HF) pharmacotherapies, including angiotensin receptor‐neprilysin inhibitor (ARNI) and sodium‐glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is), may confer cardiovascular benefits by attenuating myocardial fibrosis. However, direct evidence from human failing myocardial samples is limited.

Background and Purpose Human adenovirus (HAdV) causes respiratory or gastrointestinal tract infections depending on the virus subtype. While HAdV infections are generally self‐limiting in immunocompetent people, they can result in significant morbidity and mortality in immunocompromised adults and children.
