Coinhibition of mTORC1/mTORC2 and RhoA /ROCK pathways prevents chronic rejection of rat cardiac allografts

open access: yesTransplantation Reports, 2018
Chronic rejection of transplanted organs remains an unresolved issue in clinical organ transplantation. The macrophages play a crucial role in the development of chronic rejection.

STAT6 Activation Exacerbates Ferroptosis in Airway Epithelium by Inhibiting PRKN‐Mediated Mitophagy in Pulmonary Fibrosis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study uncovers STAT6‐driven pulmonary fibrosis (PF) via suppression of PRKN‐mediated airway epithelial mitophagy, triggering mitochondrial dysfunction and ferroptosis. Rifabutin is identified as a potent STAT6 inhibitor that effectively reverses fibrotic progression. These findings reveal the STAT6‐PRKN axis as a pathogenic regulator and provide a

TFEB drives mTORC1 hyperactivation and kidney disease in Tuberous Sclerosis Complex

open access: yesNature Communications
Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC) is caused by TSC1 or TSC2 mutations, leading to hyperactivation of mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) and lesions  in multiple organs including lung (lymphangioleiomyomatosis) and kidney (angiomyolipoma ...

Glycolytic Enzyme HK2 Phosphorylates nSMase1 to Promote Astrocytic Exosomes Biogenesis Contributing to Acute Ischemic Stroke Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals that the glycolytic enzyme HK2 mediates hypoxia‐induced astrocytic exosome biogenesis by directly phosphorylating nSMase1. These astrocytic exosomes impair brain endothelial tight junctions. Astrocyte‐specific knockdown of HK2 reduces exosome release and alleviates brain injury after MCAO.

The GRK2/AP‐1 Signaling Axis Mediates Vascular Endothelial Dysfunction and Atherosclerosis Induced by Oscillatory Low Shear Stress

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study highlights GRK2 is a central mediator in OSS‐induced endothelial dysfunction. OSS activates GPCRs in endothelial cells, leading to GRK2 phosphorylation and the activation of AP‐1. AP‐1 induces inflammation, while also promoting NR4A1 expression and anchoring LKB1 in the nucleus, which suppresses AMPK activity. This cascade causes endothelial

ATF3 Deficiency Exacerbates Ageing‐Induced Atherosclerosis and Clinical Intervention Strategy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Targeting ATF3 with terazosin to against VSMC Senescence and atherosclerosis. TZ reduces the binding affinity of YTHDF2 to Atf3 mRNA, while enhancing mRNA stability. ATF3 promotes Atg7 transcription, enhancing autophagy. ATG7 binds to ATF3 in the cytoplasm, facilitating ATF3 translocation to the nucleus and establishing positive feedback. By modulating

Gasdermin D‐Mediated Pyroptosis Exerts Two Opposite Effects of Resisting Enzymatic Digestion and Expanding Inflammatory Response in Acute Pancreatitis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Gasdermin D (GSDMD) does not only reduce pancreatic enzyme synthesis but also induces pancreatic acinar cells to express mucin 1 (MUC1), which forms a barrier to prevent digestive enzyme‐mediated digestion. However, GSDMD can promote the secretion of inflammatory cytokines by macrophages and aggravate pancreatic histological injury by expanding ...

Epigenetic Regulation of DAPK1 and Netrin‐1 Drives Diabetic Encephalopathy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies a microRNA (miR)‐216a‐5p/death‐associated protein kinase 1 (DAPK1)/hepatocyte nuclear factor 1 homeobox A (HNF1A)/Netrin‐1 signaling axis in diabetic encephalopathy (DE). In leptin receptor‐deficient (db/db) and streptozotocin (STZ)‐induced diabetic mice, reduced miR‐216a‐5p increases DAPK1 expression, disrupting HNF1A binding to ...
