Mechanosensing in myosin filament solves a 60 years old conflict in skeletal muscle modeling between high power output and slow rise in tension [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2016
Almost 60 years ago Andrew Huxley with his seminal paper \cite{Huxley1957} laid the foundation of modern muscle modeling, linking chemical events to mechanical performance. He described mechanics and energetics of muscle contraction through the cyclical attachment and detachment of myosin motors to the actin filament with ad hoc assumptions on the ...

Lipid Droplet‐Organized MDM2‐Mediated P53 Degradation: A Metabolic Switch Governing Diet‐Driven Tumor Progression

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Tumor‐associated TP53 inactivation correlates with lipid droplet (LD) accumulation. High‐fat diets drive Cyb5r3‐Myh9‐mediated p53 enrichment on LD surfaces, accelerating its degradation while upregulating LD‐promoting factor CD36 expression to establish a feed‐forward loop. LD suppression or dietary intervention restores p53 and inhibits tumorigenesis,

Large‐Scale Bioprinting of Human Epiblast‐Like Models Featuring Disc‐Shaped Morphogenesis and Gastrulation Events

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Large‐scale generation of disc‐shaped models mimicking human epiblast layer is achieved by bioprinting of human pluripotent stem cells using a well‐defined biomatrix. The bioactive component and physical confinement from laminin/alginate microgels, combined with the endogenous regulation of the WNT signaling pathway regulated disc‐like morphogenesis ...

UTX Responds to Nanotopography to Suppress Macrophage Inflammatory Response by Remodeling H3K27me3 Modification

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Compared with those on the pTi surface, macrophages on the TNTs surface present reduced myosin II contractility, which facilitates the nuclear translocation of the UTX. This reduction decreases the enrichment of the repressive H3K27me3 histone modification at the Abca1 gene locus, which promotes the transcription and protein expression of ABCA1 ...

Sensor‐Embedded Muscle for Closed‐Loop Controllable Actuation in Proprioceptive Biohybrid Robots

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Skeletal muscle tissue‐based bioactuators move in response to externally applied electrical stimuli in open‐loop control, which lacks knowledge of the actuator's state. Herein, a soft and fiber‐shaped piezoresistive mechanosensor that integrates with the soft tissue and operates in the cell culture environment is used to create the first proprioceptive

Disruption of the blood–brain barrier contributes to neurobehavioral changes observed in rheumatic heart disease

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Sydenham's chorea (SC) is the neurological manifestation associated with acute rheumatic fever (ARF), triggered by a group A streptococcal (GAS) infection. Anti‐GAS antibodies cross‐reacting with tissue proteins are implicated in the development of neurological changes. In this study, using an animal model, we demonstrate that a compromised blood–brain

Combinatorial targeting of G‐protein‐coupled bile acid receptor 1 and cysteinyl leukotriene receptor 1 reveals a mechanistic role for bile acids and leukotrienes in drug‐induced liver injury

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
CHIN117 is a dual cysteinyl leukotriene receptor 1 (CYSLTR1) antagonist and G‐protein‐coupled bile acid receptor 1 (GPBAR1) agonist. In the liver, GPBAR1 and CYSLTR1 are coexpressed by liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs), HSCs, circulating monocytes/macrophages, and liver resident macrophages (Kupffer cells).
