Proteomic Epithelial‐To‐Mesenchymal Transition Signature in Fetoplacental Small Extracellular Vesicles of Early‐Onset Preeclampsia

Journal of Extracellular Biology, Volume 5, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Preeclampsia (PE), a hypertensive disorder in pregnancy, is linked to placental vascular remodelling, increasing risks of foetal growth restriction and long‐term offspring health problems. The role of fetoplacental endothelial cell‐derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) in PE remains underexplored.

Myogenic Differentiation on 3D‐Printed Interpenetrating Bioactive Hydrogel of Decellularised Human Placenta With Fish Scale Gelatin

MedComm – Biomaterials and Applications, Volume 5, Issue 1, March 2026.
Study outlines fabrication of tailorable decellularised human placenta and fish scale gelatin‐based hydrogels. Decellularisation with ultrasonication reduced time and ECM damage. Hydrogels were assessed for structural integrity and cytocompatibility, showing myogenic differentiation with aligned myotubes (C2C12) and myoblasts (HAMSCs).

Implementing a Tiered Genetic Testing Strategy for Muscular Dystrophies in Morocco: From Targeted Assays to Exome Sequencing

Molecular Genetics &Genomic Medicine, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
Targeted routine testing combined with NGS approaches enabled effective genetic diagnosis of muscular dystrophies in Moroccan patients, with nearly half of cases resolved by first‐line testing and additional diagnoses obtained through targeted sequencing and whole‐exome sequencing.

Combined Use of EMG and Muscle Ultrasound for the Evaluation of Scapular Winging

Muscle &Nerve, Volume 73, Issue 3, Page 495-499, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Scapular winging occurs as an abnormal protrusion of the scapula due to nerve injury, muscle weakness, bone, or joint pathology. The main muscular stabilizers of the scapula include the serratus anterior, trapezius, rhomboid major and minor, levator scapulae, and pectoralis minor.

No General Association Between Myositis Antibodies and Electromyography Findings

Neurology and Clinical Neuroscience, Volume 14, Issue 2, Page 160-167, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective Myositis‐specific antibodies (MSAs), myositis‐associated antibodies (MAAs), and concentric needle electromyography (EMG) are routinely used in the differential diagnosis of myositis. Their mutual relationship, particularly between MSAs/MAAs and EMG findings, remains unclear.

MXene‐Based Conductive Micropatterned Composites Promote Myogenic Differentiation of Muscle Cells

Small Structures, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2026.
Micropatterned, conductive MXene/PLA blends were developed to address tissue loss by guiding the alignment and promoting the differentiation of C2C12 muscle cells. Micropatterned MXene/PLA blends with pitch of 100 and 150 μm supported C2C12 myoblast alignment, improved cell interactions, and promoted early myogenic differentiation without induction ...

Piezo1‐Mediated Mechanotransduction: Orchestrating the Dynamic Response of Podocytes and Parietal Epithelial Cells to Mechanical Stress

Acta Physiologica, Volume 242, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim The glomerulus is a specialized microvascular unit that filters plasma through the coordinated function of podocytes and parietal epithelial cells (PECs). From this perspective, the glomerulus functions like a living hydrogeological filtration system.

Microscopic and molecular aspects of skeletal muscle alterations in cerebral palsy

Developmental Medicine &Child Neurology, Volume 68, Issue 3, Page 343-357, March 2026.
Cerebral palsy, caused by non‐progressive brain injury, is frequently accompanied by skeletal muscle alterations. This review synthesizes current evidence from muscle biopsy studies, revealing cellular and molecular adaptations in muscle tissue. Abstract Cerebral palsy (CP), the most prevalent childhood‐onset motor disability, frequently entails ...

The Role of MEF2 in Scar Formation and Angiogenesis

Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, Volume 25, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Myocyte enhancer factor 2 (MEF2), belonging to the Minichromosome Maintenance 1, Agamous, Deficiens and Serum Response Factor (MADS) box family with four members (MEF2A‐D), plays a pivotal role in the proliferation and differentiation of various cells, including endothelial cells (ECs) and fibroblasts, as well as in physiological ...
