Objective Lupus nephritis (LN) is one of the most severe manifestations of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and is partially driven by type I interferon signaling. Anifrolumab, an approved treatment for patients with SLE, has been investigated in a phase 2 trial in patients with LN receiving standard therapy (TULIP‐LN, ClinicalTrials.gov identifier ...

ITGA5/integrin α5β1 promotes PDAC progression by integrating fibronectin‐dependent adhesion, hypoxia‐associated ECM remodelling, pancreatic stellate cell/cancer‐associated fibroblast activation, desmoplasia and tumour‒stroma crosstalk. These processes contribute to impaired drug delivery and therapeutic resistance.

Semaphorin signaling in vertebrate neural circuit assembly
Neural circuit formation requires the coordination of many complex developmental processes. First, neurons project axons over long distances to find their final targets and then establish appropriate connectivity essential for the formation of neuronal ...

The Therapeutic Potential of H2S‐Releasing Platforms in Cardiovascular Applications
The Therapeutic Potential of H2S‐Releasing Platforms. ABSTRACT Once known as a toxic gas, hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is now making its way into many therapeutic applications. Similar to its other fellow endogenous gasotransmitters, nitric oxide and carbon monoxide, H2S is a small gas with a short half‐life, making it extremely capable of penetrating ...

ABSTRACT Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) survivors frequently experience a wide range of symptoms known as post‐acute sequelae of SARS‐CoV‐2 (PASC) or long COVID. Importantly, complications arising from microvascular dysfunction, blood‐brain barrier (BBB) disruption, and chronic neuroinflammation have been implicated in driving PASC within the ...

Lymphatic Endothelial Cells in Health and Disease
Lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs) are dynamic regulators of tissue homeostasis and disease remodeling. In the healthy state, LECs coordinate interstitial fluid drainage, intestinal lipid transport, and immune trafficking and tolerance. Across disease settings, however, these same programs become maladaptively reprogrammed, contributing to barrier ...

Bad vessels beware! Semaphorins will sort you out!
Secreted class 3 semaphorins (Sema3), which signal through plexin receptors and mostly use neuropilins (Nrps) as co‐receptors, were initially identified for their ability to steer navigating axons in the developing embryo.

The study found that SARS‐CoV‐2 Omicron infection causes region‐specific inflammatory, immune, synaptic, and signaling disorders in the brain, and the predicted kinases and differentially expressed proteins may serve as potential targets for COVID‐19‐related drug discovery.

A noncanonical role for Jagged1 in endothelial mechanotransduction
The Notch signaling pathway plays a crucial role in regulating endothelial biology. Notch signaling is sensitive to hemodynamic forces and governs mechanically driven cardiovascular development, physiology, and remodeling. This study reveals a non‐canonical role for the Notch ligand Jagged1 in endothelial mechanotransduction.
