PolyG Fibrils Coalesce Into Nuclear Ribbons That Engage Proteostasis Machinery in Neuronal Intranuclear Inclusion Disease

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In NIID, expanded NOTCH2NLC repeats give rise to nuclear polyG inclusions. Tracer‐guided in situ cryo‐electron tomography enables cross‐scale structural analysis from mouse brain to native neuronal nuclei, revealing dense‐core/peripheral‐halo inclusions built from compact polyG ribbons.

A Second Pathogenic Protein, PolyGN2C‐iso2, Reveals a Dual‐Protein Pathology in Neuronal Intranuclear Inclusion Disease

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals that NOTCH2NLC transcript variant 2 generates PolyGN2C‐iso2, an aggregating protein present within intranuclear inclusions of NIID patient tissues. A novel mouse model expressing PolyGN2C‐iso2 recapitulates white matter abnormalities and cognitive deficits, mechanistically linked to mitochondrial dysfunction. These findings support a

Loss of LCN2 Function Ameliorates Glucocorticoid‐Induced Muscle Atrophy via Remodeling the Extracellular Matrix

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Glucocorticoids transcriptionally activate LCN2 expression via GR nuclear translocation. Secreted LCN2 binds MMP9 to degrade skeletal muscle ECM collagen, blocks integrin‐mediated mechanotransduction, bidirectionally disrupts muscle protein homeostasis, and reveals a novel target for steroid‐induced muscle atrophy.

Single‐Nucleus Atlas of Spinal Sarcopenia Patients Reveals Disruption of Quiescent and Regenerative Satellite Cell Niches in Fatty‐Infiltrated Muscle

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Mechanisms of Fatty Infiltration and Muscle Degeneration. Clinical metadata identified intramuscular fat accumulation as an independent driver of muscle mass decline. Single‐nucleus RNA sequencing of spinal sarcopenia muscle revealed adipogenic reprogramming of fibro‐adipogenic progenitors, satellite‐cell niche disruption, and elevated levels of the ...

Mechanically Regulated Secretion: How Physical Forces Instruct the Secretory Pathway and Remodel the Secretome

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Mechanical cues, including ECM stiffness, stretch, compression, shear stress, and traction forces, remodel trafficking across the secretory pathway, from the ER and Golgi to endolysosomal compartments and the plasma membrane. The resulting secretome reshapes ECM composition and tissue mechanics, establishing feedback loops that support homeostasis or ...

Myopathy in acute hypothyroidism [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
Hypothyroid myopathy has so far been reported in long standing cases of hypothyroidism. We describe two adult patients with myopathy associated with acute transient hypothyroidism. Both presented with severe muscle aches and cramps, stiffness and spasms.

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

open access: yesAdvanced 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.
