Sequential Patterning of Photoresponsive Hydrogels Directs Crypt Fission and Reveals the Role of Epithelial Curvature on Fission Symmetry

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Deterministic crypt fission is achieved in intestinal organoids using photopatternable hydrogels with spatiotemporal control. Daughter‐crypt symmetry is shown to depend on parent‐crypt geometry and epithelial curvature, while myosin‐dependent mechanosensing links tissue shape to regenerative outcomes.

Nutritional and metabolic programming during the first thousand days of life

La Pediatria Medica e Chirurgica, 2017
The latest scientific acquisitions are demonstrating what has already been hypothesized for more than twenty years about the development of the state of health/illness of individuals. Indeed, certain stimuli, if applied to a sensible phase of development,

TECTB Variants Reveal Tectorial Membrane Vulnerability in Dominant Non‐Syndromic Hearing Loss

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
TECTB is a non‐collagenous protein of the tectorial membrane – an extracellular matrix of the cochlea. This study identifies dominant missense variants in TECTB linked to human hereditary deafness in two unrelated families. Genetically engineered mice homozygous for one of the variants are profoundly deaf, whereas heterozygous mice have normal hearing ...

Determinants of Extended Neonatal Intensive Care Unit Stay [PDF]

Iranian Journal of Neonatology
Background: Prolonged hospitalization in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) escalates healthcare costs and potentially exposes neonates to further complications. This study aimed to identify the significant predictors influencing the length of stay (

TGFBI Maintains Fibrocartilage Homeostasis by Restraining O‐GlcNAcylation to Inactivate and Destabilize ADAMTS16 in Temporomandibular Joint Osteoarthritis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
TGFBI deficiency elevates O‐GlcNAcylation, promoting the transcriptional activation of ADAMTS16 and OGT‐mediated post‐translational modification of ADAMTS16 at Ser1170. This leads to its stabilization and accumulation, driving chondrocyte metabolic disorders and senescent phenotypes, ultimately resulting in fibrocartilage dysfunction and TMJOA ...

TH/TRs–COL11A2 Axis Mediates Loss of a Differentiated Astrocyte State in Hypogyrified Brains

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Using a gyrencephalic congenital hypothyroidism pig model, this study reveals cerebral atrophy and cortical hypogyrification. Single‐cell sequencing identifies astrocytes as major TH‐responsive cells, with the COL11A2‐enriched Astro‐2 state nearly absent.

Periostin‐CCL3 Feedforward Signaling Loop Promotes Cardiac Fibrosis and Cardiomyocyte Necroptosis in Arrhythmogenic Cardiomyopathy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
POSTN‐CCL3 signaling forms a feed‐forward circuit between cardiomyocytes and cardiac myofibroblasts in arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy. POSTN activates JNK/RIP3‐dependent necroptotic signaling and JNK/ETS2‐induced CCL3 expression in cardiomyocytes. In turn, CCL3‐CCR5 signaling in cardiac myofibroblasts activates NF‐κB/p65 and promotes POSTN expression ...
