Nanoscopic Mapping of the Extracellular Space in Amyloid Plaque‐rich Cortex
The extracellular space and diffusion around amyloid plaques are examined using shadow imaging and single‐particle tracking. Increased diffusivity is found near plaques, extracellular matrix alterations, and plaque core penetrability that varies with amyloid phenotype.

A Sweet Talk: The Molecular Systems of Perineuronal Nets in Controlling Neuronal Communication [PDF]
Perineuronal nets (PNNs) are mesh-like structures, composed of a hierarchical assembly of extracellular matrix molecules in the central nervous system (CNS), ensheathing neurons and regulating plasticity.

The Role of Macrophages in Cancer: From Basic Research to Clinical Applications
Monocytes infiltrate the tumor microenvironment (TME) and differentiate into macrophages, which polarize into proinflammatory, antitumor M1 cells or immunosuppressive, protumor M2 cells. Within the TME, M2‐type tumor‐associated macrophages (TAMs) predominate and drive tumor growth, angiogenesis, and metastasis. Therapeutic strategies therefore focus on

Hypoxia promotes redifferentiation and suppresses markers of hypertrophy and degeneration in both healthy and osteoarthritic chondrocytes [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: Hypoxia is considered to be a positive influence on the healthy chondrocyte phenotype and cartilage matrix formation. However, hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs) have been implicated in the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis (OA).

Current Status of Research on Losartan in Tumour Therapy
ABSTRACT Losartan, a widely prescribed antihypertensive agent, has attracted growing interest as a potential adjuvant in cancer therapy due to its affordability, established safety profile and pleiotropic effects. Emerging preclinical evidence demonstrates that losartan can effectively modulate the tumour microenvironment (TME) by inhibiting ...

The Role of Anethole in Reproductive Physiology and In Vitro Biotechnologies—A Review
ABSTRACT In vitro reproductive biotechnologies show promise for fertility preservation but still face challenges, including oxidative stress from high oxygen tension, which impairs cell viability and development. Antioxidants have been widely explored to attenuate oxidative stress during culture.

Transcriptome‐Wide Analysis of Messenger RNA Decay in Normal and Osteoarthritic Human Articular Chondrocytes [PDF]
Objective Messenger RNA (mRNA) decay rates control not only gene expression levels, but also responsiveness to altered transcriptional input. We undertook this study to examine transcriptome‐wide posttranscriptional regulation in both normal and ...
