ABSTRACT Background Persistent inflammation and impaired macrophage efferocytosis contribute to liver injury during bacterial liver abscesses (BLA). This study was conducted to investigate whether METTL3 alleviates BLA by promoting macrophage efferocytosis through m6A methylation of Nrf2 mRNA. Materials and Methods METTL3 was overexpressed in the liver

ABSTRACT Background Autosomal dominant centronuclear myopathy (ADCNM), most commonly caused by mutations in the dynamin 2 (DNM2) gene, is a rare congenital myopathy characterized by progressive muscle weakness and atrophy. Myostatin, a key negative regulator of skeletal muscle mass, has shown therapeutic potential in several models of neuromuscular ...

A whole‐body map of sEVs from a single pig, including 133 samples spanning 10 systems, revealed striking tissue‐specific heterogeneity in yield. Importantly, a conserved core cargo set comprising candidate sEV markers (ACTG1, CFL1, and ANXA2), RNA‐binding proteins, the let‐7 miRNA family, and ferritin genes was defined from 105,409 (88.6% full‐length ...

We investigated targeting Hsp72 protein expression genetically and via a drug, in a model of combined amyloid and tau pathology. Neither approach reduced amyloid or tau or improved body composition or movement ability. Both treatments tended to slightly improve survival in male mice and anxiety‐like behavior in female mice.

In salt‐loaded, hypertensive diabetic db/db mice with diabetic kidney disease, dapagliflozin lowered blood pressure and reduced tubular and glomerular injury. Mechanistically, dapagliflozin increased cullin E3 ligase abundance, promoting degradation of NKCC2.

ABSTRACT Cultured meat, produced through the cultivation of animal cells, represents a sustainable and ethical alternative to traditional livestock farming. The cultivation and expansion of animal cells for cultured meat production rely heavily on extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins, which are needed for cell adhesion, proliferation, and ...

Direct Pharmacological Activation of AMPK Extends Lifespan in Yeast, Worms and Flies
AMP‐activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a key evolutionarily conserved sensor of energy homeostasis, which is implicated in metabolic health and disease, as well as in ageing. Here, we show that direct pharmacological activation of AMPK with the compound 991 in vivo extends lifespan in multiple model organisms: the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces ...

Soy lecithin and DATEM, the two commonly used food emulsifiers introduced into many foods including peanut butter and puffed bread, in the 2000s, impair intestinal epithelial barrier integrity in human gut‐on‐a‐chip and induced pluripotent stem cell colon organoid models.

ABSTRACT Background Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is characterized by progressive tubulointerstitial inflammation and fibrosis, particularly affecting the proximal tubule. Both proximal tubular epithelial cells and interstitial fibroblasts contribute to CKD progression through cell‐cycle arrest and phenotypic transitions.

When breast cancer cells experience ER stress, their large extracellular vesicles promote increased endothelial migration and endothelial permeability. When these cancer cells are adapted to acidosis, their extracellular vesicles increase permeability and migration, reduce angiogenesis and tumor cell adhesion to endothelia, and activate ER stress ...
