Early Dapagliflozin and Melatonin Treatment Ameliorated LV Fibrosis via Suppressing TGF‐β1/Smads and Activating Nrf2‐ARE Signaling in MI Rodent

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study tested whether combined dapagliflozin (DAPA) and melatonin (Mel) therapy was superior to merely one for ameliorating the left ventricular (LV) fibrosis/remodeling and improving LV ejection fraction (LVEF) in rats after acute myocardial infarction (AMI). In vitro study demonstrated that DAPA treatment significantly suppressed the TGF‐

FOXC1: A Key Transcription Factor of VSMC‐Derived Foam Cell Formation in Atherosclerotic Plaque Instability

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The instability of atherosclerotic plaques, particularly intraplaque hemorrhage (IPH), drives life‐threatening cardiovascular events, a process in which vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC)‐derived foam cells play a significant role. We aim to identify key biomarkers associated with VSMC‐derived foam cells and IPH by analyzing data from human ...

Effect of Oxygen and Nitrogen Oxide Gas Concentration on Corrosion of 310N Stainless Steel in Solar Salt at 600°C

open access: yesMaterials and Corrosion, EarlyView.
Schematic depicting corrosion layer formation and changes in stainless steel exposed to Solar Salt at 600°C for 1000 h under different atmospheres: (a) N2 accelerates salt decomposition, producing nitrite and oxide ions, causing severe corrosion. (b) Adding O2 reduces nitrite ions formation, resulting in less corrosion than N2 alone.

Mapping Causal Biology: Mendelian Randomization in the Era of Big Data

open access: yesMed Research, EarlyView.
Mendelian randomization (MR) leverages genetic variants to mitigate confounding biases in causal inference. This review systematically maps MR's methodological evolution, highlights its expanding applications in epidemiology and drug target validation, and outlines future directions for overcoming current biases through dynamic, multi‐omics, and cross ...

Toxicity Differences Between Microplastics and Nanoplastics in Organs: From Molecular Mechanisms to Potential Therapeutic Strategies

open access: yesMed Research, EarlyView.
This review systematically compares the size‐dependent toxicity of microplastics and nanoplastics in the intestine, liver, kidney, lung, and brain. Particle size determines bioavailability, barrier penetration, and injury mechanisms. Because of their small size and high surface reactivity, NPs readily cross the intestinal epithelium and blood–brain ...
