A Review of Vagus Nerve Stimulation for Disease: Comprehensive Theory and Evidence for Mechanisms of Action

Comprehensive Physiology, Volume 16, Issue 2, April 2026.
Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) effects span central and peripheral organ systems through diverse mechanistic pathways. This comprehensive review provides a unified synthesis of these mechanisms across neurological, cardiovascular, immunological, metabolic, and gastrointestinal domains, filling a critical gap and serving as a foundational resource for ...

Cerebral Infarction: Epidemiology, Classification, Mechanisms, Diagnosis, and Management

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2026.
Within minutes after ischemia onset, deprivation of oxygen and glucose leads to rapid ATP depletion, resulting in failure of Na+/K+‐ATPase activity and membrane depolarization. This ionic imbalance promotes uncontrolled synaptic release of glutamate and excessive activation of postsynaptic NMDA and AMPA receptors.

Nanoceria Nanozyme Attenuates CoCl2‐Induced Oxidative Stress and Mitochondrial Dysfunction in H9c2 Cardiomyoblasts

Nano Select, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2026.
This study shows that nanoceria protect H9c2 cardiomyoblasts from CoCl2‐induced chemical stress. Nanoceria reduces reactive oxygen species, preserves mitochondrial function, and regulates genes involved in antioxidant defense, intrinsic apoptosis, and inflammation. These findings highlight nanoceria's potential as a redox‐active nanozyme for protecting

Upregulation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator gene ( PGC1A ) during weight loss is related to insulin sensitivity but not to energy expenditure [PDF]

, 2018
Aims/hypothesis: We investigated whether skeletal muscle peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator-1 (PGC1A; also known as PPARGC1A) and its target mitofusin-2 (MFN2), as well as carnitine palmitoyltransferase-1 (CPT1; also known as ...

FGF21‐Mediated Upregulation of SIRT1 Delays Intervertebral Disc Degeneration by Promoting PINK1/Parkin Dependent Mitophagy Through Deacetylation of FOXO3

Aging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 4, April 2026.
FGF21 upregulates SIRT1 to promote the deacetylation of FOXO3 at sites K241, K258, K289, and K568, thereby activating PINK1/Parkin‐dependent mitophagy, suppressing nucleus pulposus cell senescence, and delaying intervertebral disc degeneration. ABSTRACT Intervertebral Disc Degeneration (IDD) is a common degenerative spinal disease and a leading cause ...

The Preservation of Muscle Mitochondrial Machinery During Hypometabolic Hibernation in Scandinavian Brown Bears (Ursus arctos)

Acta Physiologica, Volume 242, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Unlike humans, brown bears (Ursus arctos) uniquely preserve skeletal muscle mass and function during months of hibernation despite prolonged fasting and inactivity. We investigated how mitochondrial energetics respond in skeletal muscle to support this remarkable resilience.

Mitochondria‐Related Pathogenic Genes in Paediatric Asthma: A Multi‐Omics Mendelian Randomization Study

Journal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Volume 30, Issue 7, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Mitochondrial dysfunction is implicated in asthma pathogenesis, but causal roles of mitochondrial‐related genes in paediatric asthma remain unclear. We performed a multi‐omics Mendelian randomization study integrating GWAS data from paediatric asthma cohorts with blood‐based methylation quantitative trait loci (mQTLs), expression QTLs (eQTLs ...

Mitofusin 2 Attenuates Adenomyosis Progression by Suppressing Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition: Evidence From Clinical and Experimental Models

Clinical and Experimental Obstetrics & Gynecology
Background: Adenomyosis involves epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), yet the role of mitochondrial regulator Mitofusin 2 (Mfn2) remains unclear. This study investigated the role of Mfn2 in adenomyosis-related EMT and evaluated its

Functional interaction of Parkinson's disease-associated LRRK2 with members of the dynamin GTPase superfamily [PDF]

, 2017
Mutations in LRRK2 cause autosomal dominant Parkinson's disease (PD). LRRK2 encodes a multi-domain protein containing GTPase and kinase domains, and putative protein-protein interaction domains.
