Lithium alters expression of RNAs in a type-specific manner in differentiated human neuroblastoma neuronal cultures, including specific genes involved in Alzheimer's disease. [PDF]
Lithium (Li) is a medication long-used to treat bipolar disorder. It is currently under investigation for multiple nervous system disorders, including Alzheimer's disease (AD).

Replicating aging and senescence‐related pathophysiological responses in kidney organoids remains a significant challenge. Human adult renal tubular organoid, tubuloids, are successfully developed recapitulating cellular senescence that is the central pathophysiological mechanism of chronic kidney disease (CKD).

Krüppel-like factors in cancer progression: three fingers on the steering wheel [PDF]
Kruppel-like factors (KLFs) comprise a highly conserved family of zinc finger transcription factors, that are involved in a plethora of cellular processes, ranging from proliferation and apoptosis to differentiation, migration and pluripotency.

Sucrase-isomaltase Gene Transcription Requires the Hepatocyte Nuclear Factor-1 (HNF-1) Regulatory Element and Is Regulated by the Ratio of HNF-1α to HNF-1β [PDF]
The mouse sucrase-isomaltase (SI) gene is an enterocyte-specific gene expressed in a complex developmental pattern. We previously reported that a short, evolutionarily conserved gene promoter regulates developmental expression of SI in mouse small intestine. Herein, we investigated the role of a hepatocyte nuclear factor-1 (HNF-1) cis-acting element to

Promoter-Specific Repression of Hepatocyte Nuclear Factor (HNF)-1β and HNF-1α Transcriptional Activity by an HNF-1β Missense Mutant Associated with Type 5 Maturity-Onset Diabetes of the Young with Hepatic and Biliary Manifestations [PDF]
AbstractMutations in the hepatocyte nuclear factor (HNF)-1β lead to type 5 maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY5). HNF-1β forms a homodimer or a heterodimer with HNF-1α and regulates various target genes. HNF-1β mutations are rare, and no functional analysis has been performed in conjunction with HNF-1α.

The Space Within: How Architected Voids Promote Tissue Formation
This review explores the role of void spaces in tissue engineering scaffolds and examines four key methods for introducing porosity into hydrogels at different scales. It discusses sacrificial templating, microgels, phase separation, and 3D printing, highlighting principles, advantages, and limitations. It also addresses emerging strategies integrating

Immunotherapy in hepatocellular carcinoma: the complex interface between inflammation, fibrosis, and the immune response. [PDF]
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the third leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide and confers a poor prognosis. Beyond standard systemic therapy with multikinase inhibitors, recent studies demonstrate the potential for robust and durable responses ...
