Integrin α8‐Mediated Pericyte Morphogenesis Controls Blood‐Brain Barrier Integrity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
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 ...

Skullcapflavone II Inhibits SLC1A4‐Mediated L‐Serine Uptake and Promotes Mitochondrial Damage in Gastric Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Skullcapflavone II (SkII) significantly alters serine metabolism in gastric cancer cells by directly targeting the L‐serine transporter SLC1A4, thereby inhibiting L‐serine uptake rather than de novo synthesis. This disruption of serine metabolism by SkII leads to increased oxidative stress and consequent mitochondrial damage.

Targeting Intratumoral Copper Inhibits Tumor Progression via p62‐Mediated EZH2 Degradation and Potentiates Anti‐PD‐1 Immunotherapy in Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The authors find that by targeting intratumoral copper, they can enhance p62‐mediated ubiquitination of EZH2 at the Ub‐K63 site by suppressing copper binding to SMURF2, an E3 ligase of EZH2, leading to its autophagic degradation. This mechanism suppressed OSCC progression and potentiated anti‐PD‐1 immunotherapy, highlighting a potential new therapeutic

Long-Term Efficacy of Treatment with Cyclosporine in Idiopathic Membranous Nephropathy: Remission Is Not Enough

Turkish Journal of Nephrology
Background: Membranous nephropathy (MN) is an autoimmune disease in which circulating autoantibodies bind to a podocyte antigen, causing nephrotic syndrome. Despite several treatment options, their long-term benefits are still not established. The aim of

Human iPSC‐Derived Mononuclear Phagocytes Improve Cognition and Neural Health across Multiple Mouse Models of Aging and Alzheimer's Disease

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Short‐term intravenous treatments with iPSC‐derived mononuclear phagocytes (iMPs) improve cognitive decline and neural health in two mouse models of aging and in the 5xFAD mouse model of Alzheimer's disease. iMPs reduce levels of serum amyloid proteins that increase in aging and improve the health of hippocampal microglia and mossy cells.

Injectable BMSC‐Based Extracellular Matrix‐Mimicking Microtissue for Myocardial Infarction Repair

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A novel injectable biomimetic extracellular matrix scaffold (JLSV) is designed for enhanced delivery of bone marrow‐derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs). By utilizing janus basic nanotubes, laminin, stromal‐derived factor‐1 alpha, and vascular endothelial growth factor, this innovative JLSV–BMSC microtissue shows promise in myocardial infarction ...

RELA Ablation Contributes to Progression of Hepatocellular Carcinoma with TP53R249S Mutation and is a Potential Therapeutic Target

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Genome‐wide CRISPR/Cas9 based screening identified RELA as a key tumor suppressor in TP53R249S‐mutant HCC. Its loss promotes tumorigenesis and metastasis via DVL1‐mediated Wnt/β‐catenin activation, while its agonist betulinic acid suppresses tumor progression.
