Deconstruction of Human Age‐Related Cataract Capsules Defines Aging
Advanced Science, EarlyView.We generate a comprehensive atlas of age‐related cataracts (ARC) at a single‐cell resolution, encompassing three disease states—mild cataract group (Mild), severe cortical cataract group (Severe_C), and severe nuclear cataract group (Severe_N). We find that ARC involves seven distinct lens capsule cell types, with notable differences in cellular ...

Receptor complexes for each of the Class 3 Semaphorins
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2012 The Class 3 Semaphorins (Sema3s) are a sub-family of proteins whose known biological roles are varied and growing. The mechanism of action of the Sema3s requires binding to transmembrane receptors that comprise heteromeric complexes of Neuropilins ...

Sonoselective Transfection of Glioma Endothelium
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Delivering non‐viral, gene‐bearing nanoparticles with thiol‐decorated surfaces to gliomas with focused ultrasound yields transfection tropism for endothelial cells. From this platform, “sonoselective” transfection of glioma endothelium is achieved via incorporation of an endothelial cell‐specific promoter.

Neuropilin-1 in Transplantation Tolerance [PDF]
Frontiers in Immunology, 2013 In the immune system, Neuropilin-1 (Nrp1) is a molecule that plays an important role in establishing the immunological synapse between dendritic cells (DCs) and T cells. Recently, Nrp1 has been identified as a marker that seems to distinguish natural T regulatory (nTreg) cells, generated in the thymus, from inducible T regulatory (iTreg) cells raised ...

Multifaceted Role of Neuropilins in the Immune System: Potential Targets for Immunotherapy
Frontiers in Immunology, 2017 Neuropilins (NRPs) are non-tyrosine kinase cell surface glycoproteins expressed in all vertebrates and widely conserved across species. The two isoforms, such as neuropilin-1 (NRP1) and neuropilin-2 (NRP2), mainly act as coreceptors for class III ...

Neurovascular coupling in bone regeneration: Mechanisms, advanced biomaterials and challenges
BMEMat, EarlyView.This figure illustrates various material strategies for neurovascularized bone regeneration, including electroactive scaffolds, ion‐loaded materials, drug delivery systems, surface modifications, cells/cell products, growth factors, and peptides. These approaches aim to synergistically promote the regeneration of neural, vascular, and bone tissues ...

The Role of Rho GTPases in VEGF Signaling in Cancer Cells
Analytical Cellular Pathology, 2020 Vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGFs) consist of five molecules (VEGFA through D as well as placental growth factor) which are crucial for regulating key cellular and tissue functions. The role of VEGF and its intracellular signaling and downstream

Perturbation of semaphorin and VEGF signaling in ACDMPV lungs due to FOXF1 deficiency
Respiratory Research, 2021 Background Alveolar capillary dysplasia with misalignment of pulmonary veins (ACDMPV) is a rare lethal congenital lung disorder in neonates characterized by severe progressive respiratory failure and refractory pulmonary hypertension, resulting from ...

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract The olfactory placode (OP) generates a broad array of chemosensory neurons in the nasal region, including olfactory sensory neurons, vomeronasal sensory neurons, neurons of the septal organ, and Grueneberg ganglion. During invagination, the OP also generates migratory neuronal populations, including gonadotropin‐releasing hormone‐1 (GnRH‐1 ...
