N6‐Methyladenosine in Inflammatory Bowel Disease: An Emerging Regulator of Pathogenesis and a Novel Therapeutic Frontier

iMetaMed, EarlyView.
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the intestine associated with an imbalance in intestinal homeostasis. m6A‐modifying enzymes, consisting of m6A writers, erasers and readers, plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis and progression of IBD by affecting four intestinal barriers, including the intestinal mechanical ...

Nanoplastics: Methods, Exposure and Effects on Domestic, Farm and Wild Animals

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nanoplastics (NPs) are synthetic polymer particles ranging in size from 1 nm to 1 μm that have been identified as a major concern for ecosystems and organisms due to their plethora of negative effects. The aim of this review is to provide a comprehensive overview of the knowledge relating to exposure and effects of NPs in domestic (i.e., farm ...

Effects of collagen gel configuration on behaviour of vascular smooth muscle cells in vitro: association with vascular morphogenesis.

, 2000
The growth, behavior, and contractile protein expression of rabbit aortic smooth muscle cells (SMC) grown on, between layers, or within a collagen gel was investigated by confocal laser scanning fluorescence microscopy and Western analysis.

Potential Neuroendocrine Disruption by Benzodiazepines and Its Impact on Male Fertility

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Neuroactive substances have emerged as potent endocrine disruptors affecting male reproductive health through central and peripheral mechanisms. Among these, benzodiazepines, which are widely used for the management of anxiety, insomnia, epilepsy, and neuromuscular disorders, are known as GABA A (gamma‐aminobutyric acid type A) receptor ...

Insights into in vitro spermatogenesis in mammals: Past, present, future [PDF]

Molecular Reproduction and Development, 2017
Considering the self‐renewal and differentiation ability of pluripotent stem cells, some studies have pointed out the possibility of stem cell‐derived sperm production. Most studies that test this hypothesis have been conducted on rodents, with some promising results; however, studies on humans are progressing slowly, and have encountered technical and

In Utero HSC Transplantation for Sickle Cell Disease: A Potential Therapeutic Approach That Overcomes Complications of Current Therapies

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sickle cell disease (SCD) affects millions worldwide but has limited treatment options, most of which carry significant side effects. At present, the only curative treatment for SCD is allogeneic or gene‐modified autologous hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) transplantation (Tx).

In vitro sperm generation from immature mouse testicular tissue using plasma rich in growth factors

Stem Cell Research & Therapy
Background Culture medium enriched with Knockout serum replacement (KSR) can produce in vitro mouse sperm, but it is inefficient, strain-specific and contains bovine products, which limits its use in the human clinic.

Advances in human In vitro spermatogenesis: A review

Molecular Aspects of Medicine
Recent advances surrounding in vitro spermatogenesis (IVS) have shown potential in creating a new paradigm of regenerative medicine in the future of fertility treatments for males experiencing non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA). Male infertility is a common condition affecting approximately 15% of couples, with azoospermia being present in 15% of ...

Innovative 3D‐bioprinted microfibers in calcium phosphate cement platform with Nell‐1 to activate nerve‐bone axis for synergistic bone, vasculature, and nanofibrous nerve regeneration

Smart Molecules, EarlyView.
A 3D‐bioprinted platform with stem cells activates “nerve‐bone” signaling by enabling the spatiotemporal delivery of Nell‐1. This activation enhances neurovascular and bone regeneration through the CYFIP1 cascade. In rat calvarial defects, the platform doubled bone regeneration and nerve repair and tripled vascular density, resulting in superior ...

Effect of Salinity Stress on Gut–Brain–Gonad Axis in the Red‐Eared Slider (Trachemys scripta elegans)

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
The increase in salinity leads to changes in the gut microbiota and metabolites of Trachemys scripta elegans, affecting the synthesis and secretion of neurotransmitters or precursors, which can inhibit the secretion of reproductive hormones and affect the self‐renewal and differentiation process of spermatogonial stem cells.
