Muscularity and combatives training experience in social judgments among police cadets

Frontiers in Psychology
IntroductionMuscular appearance may influence judgments of others’ physical abilities and social qualities. However, whether these judgments vary according to observers’ combatives training experience remains unclear.

Ultrafast Micrometric Laser Structuring of Polymer Surfaces for Highly Organized Skeletal Muscle Tissue Modeling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Standard cell culture supports were functionalized by laser‐structuring to generate advanced topographies tailored to skeletal muscle tissue. The physicochemical modifications of the polymeric surfaces and their interactions with cells were thoroughly investigated, confirming both safety and effectiveness in guiding muscle cell organization.

The evolutionary basis of elevated testosterone in women with polycystic ovary syndrome: an overview of systematic reviews of the evidence

Frontiers in Reproductive Health
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) exhibits high prevalence and heritability despite causing negative impacts on fertility and fecundity. Previous hypotheses have postulated that some PCOS-associated traits, especially above-average levels of testosterone,

Targeted Mechanogenetics to Modulate Specific Deep Neural Circuits

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study introduces mechanogenetics, a nanobubble‐enhanced sonogenetic strategy for selective modulation of feeding‐related neural circuits in the mouse lateral hypothalamus. Mechanogenetic stimulation modulates feeding behavior through glutamatergic projections from the lateral hypothalamus to the ventral tegmental area, highlighting its potential ...

ZMIZ2–DUX4–LGR5 Signaling Axis Maintains Stemness Properties and Facilitates Docetaxel Resistance in Triple‐Negative Breast Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies ZMIZ2 as a therapeutic target for docetaxel‐resistant triple‐negative breast cancer, sustaining cancer stemness‐associated properties and docetaxel resistance. ZMIZ2 upregulation enhances DUX4‐mediated LGR5 activation through the SWI/SNF components BRG1 and BAF57.

Sacral Neural Crest‐Derived Extracellular Vesicles Promote Pelvic Ganglion Repair Through Anti‐Pyroptotic Effects Involving ANXA1–FPR2 Signaling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Extracellular vesicles derived from human pluripotent stem cell‐derived sacral neural crest cells promote repair of injured major pelvic ganglia and improve colorectal function. These vesicles reduce oxidative stress and pyroptosis, with ANXA1–FPR2 signaling contributing to their protective effects, and show a favorable therapeutic profile compared ...

Fuyuan Huoxue Decoction Promotes Lumbar Interbody Fusion in Rats: Role of Macrophage‐Driven Inflammation and the TLR9/NF‐κB Pathway

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Fuyuan Huoxue decoction improves lumbar interbody fusion in rats while reducing inflammatory macrophage activity and supporting bone‐forming stem cells. Experiments implicate extracellular DNA and TLR9/NF‐κB signaling in early responses. These findings point to coordinated control of inflammation and osteogenesis as a potential route to stronger spinal

Lactate Drives Pathological Browning of White Adipose Tissue to Aggravate Sepsis‐Associated Metabolic Disorders in a GPR81‐Dependent Manner

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Sepsis‐triggered lactate accumulation induces pathological white adipose tissue browning. Lactate activates adipocyte GPR81 to sequentially upregulate CTRP6‐p38 signalling and UCP1 expression. This cascade exacerbates sepsis‐associated metabolic disorders.
