Decades of Misdiagnosis as Myasthenia Gravis: Late‐Onset POLG‐Related Ophthalmoplegia Unveiled by Whole‐Genome Sequencing

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT A 55‐year‐old male developed POLG‐related ophthalmoplegia in 2015 and was misdiagnosed with seronegative myasthenia gravis for 10 years. Whole‐genome sequencing identified compound heterozygous POLG mutations, highlighting its value in diagnosing refractory neuromuscular disorders.

Generation of a Novel Col8a2P2A‐CreERT2 Mouse Line Enables Targeted Genetic Manipulation of Corneal Endothelial Cells and Modeling of Endothelial Decompensation

open access: yesgenesis, Volume 64, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The corneal endothelium is a monolayer of specialized cells that maintains stromal deturgescence and transparency, functions essential for vision. Despite its clinical importance, the developmental origins and homeostatic programs of the endothelium remain poorly understood, in part due to the lack of a lineage‐specific genetic driver.

The Homeobox Genes: Classification, Regulation, Biological Functions, and Diseases

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2026.
Overview of the homeobox gene superfamily and its pathophysiological roles. The homeobox superfamily comprises several major classes, including ANTP, PRD, TALE, LIM, POU, and others. Among these, the HOX clusters (A–D) play critical roles in embryonic development specifically in conferring cellular identity, regulating morphogenesis, and guiding axial ...

Senescent-Like Myofibers Contribute to Anti-Regenerative Cytokine Signaling in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. [PDF]

open access: yesFASEB J
p16 expression in DMD model rats induces a senescent‐like state in myofibers accompanied by p16 and cytokine gene expression, reshaping systemic humoral environments. This cytokine‐rich milieu suppresses skeletal muscle regeneration, as demonstrated by impaired regeneration of transplanted wild‐type muscle.

Deciphering the Presence of Active Interscapular Brown Adipose Tissue in Humans

open access: yesActa Physiologica, Volume 242, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Brown adipose tissue (BAT) is increasingly recognized as a metabolically active tissue in humans, although its physiological relevance remains incompletely understood. In rodents, BAT is well characterized, with interscapular BAT (iBAT) representing the main thermogenic depot.

Melatonin and the Dental Pulp: A Scoping Review

open access: yesInternational Endodontic Journal, Volume 59, Issue 4, Page 590-613, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background In general medicine, melatonin is known to enhance wound healing and promote stem cell differentiation. Its potential relevance in endodontics, however, remains underexplored. Objectives This scoping review aimed to systematically assess the available evidence on the effects of melatonin (a) on dental pulp tissue and (b) on human ...
