The Nuclear Receptor Testicular Receptor 4 Orchestrates Cytoskeletal Organization in a G Protein Subunit Alpha 12/Rho‐Associated Protein Kinase–Dependent Manner to Promote Myofibroblast Differentiation and Tissue Fibrosis in Systemic Sclerosis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Members of the superfamily of nuclear receptors have been implicated in inflammatory processes and pathologic tissue remodeling and have emerged as attractive targets for pharmaceutical intervention. However, the role of testicular receptor 4 (TR4; or Nr2c2) in fibroblast activation and rheumatologic diseases has not yet been investigated ...

Expert Perspectives: Defining and Managing Progressive Pulmonary Fibrosis in Systemic Sclerosis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Systemic sclerosis–associated interstitial lung disease (SSc‐ILD) is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in SSc, affecting up to three‐quarters of patients. The disease course is highly heterogeneous, ranging from indolent, nonprogressive forms to rapidly progressive pulmonary fibrosis (PPF).

Human Fibroblast–Myeloid Cell Tissue Atlas Across the Lungs, Synovium, Skin, and Heart

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective The availability of single‐cell RNA sequencing (scRNAseq) data in different tissues and disease states provides an opportunity to compare cellular subsets and identify common and unique cellular activation. In this study, we aimed to characterize shared and tissue‐specific myeloid and stromal phenotypes and to uncover key cellular subtypes ...

Comparative Transcriptional Profiling of Key Macrophage and Fibroblast Subpopulations in Rheumatoid Arthritis–Associated Lung Disease

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) often involves extra‐articular complications, including interstitial lung disease (ILD) and/or pulmonary nodules. Transcriptomic profiling of lung tissue provides the opportunity to directly assess cell‐specific gene expression and corresponding pathway activation in different types of rheumatoid lung disease ...

Extracellular Vesicles‐Based Biological Macromolecule Delivery Systems: Biogenesis, Characterization, and Emerging Clinical Applications

open access: yesBiotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are nanoscale membrane‐bound structures that play a pivotal role in intercellular communication by transporting bioactive molecules, including proteins, lipids, nucleic acids, and organelles, between cells. Originating from the endosomal pathway, EVs reflect the physiological and pathological status of their parent

Harnessing blood clot as a native scaffold for orchestrating tissue repairs and regeneration

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
The blood clot, owing to its dynamic composition and unique microenvironment, holds significant yet underappreciated potential for tissue engineering. This review systematically summarizes the pathophysiology of clot formation, the key regulatory factors shaping its microenvironment, and its applications in both pre‐clinical and clinical settings ...
