Convergent evolution of pregnancy-specific glycoproteins in human and horse [PDF]
, 2016 Pregnancy-specific glycoproteins (PSGs) are members of the carcinoembryonic antigen cell adhesion molecule (CEACAM) family that are secreted by trophoblast cells. PSGs may modulate immune, angiogenic and platelet responses during pregnancy.

PIEZO Force Sensing in Vascular Biology: An Explosion of New Knowledge, Concepts and Opportunity
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Knowledge of the remarkable mechanical force sensing and electrically transducing PIEZO1 and PIEZO2 channels is discussed across vascular biology and its cell types from the embryonic to adult stages in health, disease and old age. How the channels work, relate to other factors and signal for tissue responses to mechanical forces is debated.

Chronic PET‐Microplastic Exposure: Disruption of Gut–Liver Homeostasis and Risk of Hepatic Steatosis
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Chronic exposure to environmentally relevant PET microplastics disrupts gut–liver homeostasis, leading to hepatic steatosis, early fibrosis, and altered gut microbiota. These effects signal metabolic imbalance and gut–liver axis impairment, emphasizing chronic microplastic ingestion as an emerging environmental health risk linked to non‐communicable ...

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Genome‐wide non‐invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) is a powerful tool for prenatal detection of the common aneuploidies causing Down‐, Edwards‐, and Patau syndrome. Its genome‐wide reach also enables the detection of unbalanced structural chromosomal abnormalities.
