Increased susceptibility to diet-induced obesity in female mice impairs ovarian steroidogenesis: The role of elevated leptin signalling on nodal activity inhibition in theca cells

Molecular Metabolism
Objectives: Susceptibility to obesity in humans is driven by the intricate interplay of genetic, environmental and behavioural factors. Moreover, the mechanisms linking maternal obesity to infertility remain largely understudied.

Dissecting the dynamics of signaling events in the BMP, WNT, and NODAL cascade during self-organized fate patterning in human gastruloids.

PLoS Biology, 2019
During gastrulation, the pluripotent epiblast self-organizes into the 3 germ layers-endoderm, mesoderm and ectoderm, which eventually form the entire embryo.

The Pitx2 Homeobox Protein Is Required Early for Endoderm Formation and Nodal Signaling

Developmental Biology, 2001
Nodal and Nodal-related factors play fundamental roles in a number of developmental processes, including mesoderm and endoderm formation, patterning of the anterior neural plate, and determination of bilateral asymmetry in vertebrates. pitx2, a paired-like homeobox gene, has been proposed to act downstream of Nodal in the gene cascade providing ...

Natural Variations of ZmRLR1 Mediate the Root Lodging Resistance of Maize by Regulating Root Ascorbate and Auxin Homeostasis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Root lodging severely limits crop yield and quality. We reveal that ZmRLR1, a plasma membrane b‐type cytochrome, regulates lodging resistance in maize through dual roles: modulating intracellular redox balance and functioning as a novel component of clathrin‐mediated endocytosis to influence auxin homeostasis. Moreover, natural variations in the ZmRLR1

The balance between NANOG and SOX17 mediated by TET proteins regulates specification of human primordial germ cell fate

Cell & Bioscience, 2022
Background Human primordial germ cells (hPGCs) initiate from the early post-implantation embryo at week 2–3 and undergo epigenetic reprogramming during development.

Association of HAMP Expression and CD8+ T‐Cell Infiltration With Atezolizumab–Bevacizumab Response in Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
In hepatocellular carcinoma treated with atezolizumab–bevacizumab, responders showed RNA‐seq enrichment of immune and chemokine pathways with higher HAMP expression. In resected specimens, immunohistochemistry confirmed increased intratumoral CD8+ T‐cell density and hepcidin (HAMP), supporting HAMP plus CD8 as components of a composite predictor of ...

CrossMatAgent: AI‐Assisted Design of Manufacturable Metamaterial Patterns via Multi‐Agent Generative Framework

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
CrossMatAgent is a multi‐agent framework that combines large language models and diffusion‐based generative AI to automate metamaterial design. By coordinating task‐specific agents—such as describer, architect, and builder—it transforms user‐provided image prompts into high‐fidelity, printable lattice patterns.

Effect of enzalutamide on anticoagulant therapy with edoxaban in patients with prostate cancer

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Treatment with enzalutamide in prostate cancer is challenging due to its high potential for drug–drug interactions, particularly in the typically older population of patients with frequent comorbidities treated with multiple drugs, such as anticoagulants.

Differential sensitivity of midline development to mitosis during and after primitive streak extension

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Midline establishment is a fundamental process during early embryogenesis for Bilaterians. Midline morphogenesis in non‐amniotes can occur without mitosis, through Planar Cell Polarity (PCP) signaling. By contrast, amniotes utilize both cellular processes for developing the early midline landmark, the primitive streak (PS).

Neoadjuvant Immunotherapy for Periauricular Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The standard‐of‐care for advanced periauricular cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (pCSCC) is surgery and adjuvant radiation therapy. Neoadjuvant immunotherapy recently demonstrated high pathologic response rates in patients with resectable pCSCC.
