Integrin α8‐Mediated Pericyte Morphogenesis Controls Blood‐Brain Barrier Integrity
This study highlights that ITGA8 impacts pericyte morphology and function, both crucial for BBB integrity, via RhoA/ROCK signaling, thus influencing TGF‐β1 activation through cytoskeletal tension and ECM interactions. Notably, in post‐ischemic recovery models, ITGA8 deficiency exacerbates vascular dysfunction by impairing pericyte‐mediated BBB ...

NARFL Knockout Triggers Ferroptosis‐Driven Vascular Endothelial Dysfunction
NARFL is vital for CIA and oxidative stress resistance. NARFL deletion in HPMEC cells, zebrafish, and mice is lethal and rescued by a Ferroptosis inhibitor. NARFL deficiency disrupted its interaction with CIA proteins, decreased aconitase activity, increased IRP1 activity, induced Fe overload, and led to ferroptosis and oxidative stress, resulting in ...

TGFβ2 signaling‐mediated migration/invasion and migrasome formation are suppressed in recurrent miscarriage (RM) versus healthy control villous tissues and are negatively associated with unexplained RM. In mechanism, TGFβ2 promotes trophoblast cell migration/invasion and migrasome formation, all of which are suppressed by lnc‐HZ05. In details, lnc‐HZ05

Metformin Restores Mitochondrial Function and Neurogenesis in POLG Patient‐Derived Brain Organoids
Patient‐derived POLG‐mutant cortical organoids reveal neuronal subtype‐specific mitochondrial and synaptic defects, with dopaminergic neurons most affected. Metformin treatment restores neuronal identity, mitochondrial function, and excitability, increased mtDNA maintenance, and reprogrammed metabolism via TCA and redox pathways.
