Periostin‐CCL3 Feedforward Signaling Loop Promotes Cardiac Fibrosis and Cardiomyocyte Necroptosis in Arrhythmogenic Cardiomyopathy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
POSTN‐CCL3 signaling forms a feed‐forward circuit between cardiomyocytes and cardiac myofibroblasts in arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy. POSTN activates JNK/RIP3‐dependent necroptotic signaling and JNK/ETS2‐induced CCL3 expression in cardiomyocytes. In turn, CCL3‐CCR5 signaling in cardiac myofibroblasts activates NF‐κB/p65 and promotes POSTN expression ...

Upadacitinib Restrains the Pathogenic Fitness of CD4+ T Cells and Aberrant B Cell Programming in Optic Neuritis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Single‐cell profiling and functional perturbation reveal coordinated JAK1‐pSTAT3 downstream programs in optic neuritis, including MCL1‐dependent fitness of pathogenic CD4+ Tem cells and glycolysis‐linked, cholesterol‐sensitive B‐cell responses associated with RORA. Upadacitinib disrupts this reciprocal T‐B‐cell circuit and alleviates neuroinflammation,

ORAL FRAILTY INDEX-8 QUESTIONNAIRE’S VALIDITY & ASSOCIATION WITH SARCOPENIA & PHYSICAL PERFORMANCE IN OLDER ADULTS

open access: yesInnovation in Aging
Abstract Oral frailty (OF) is the age-related decline in oral function, and is associated with negative outcomes, including aspiration, malnutrition, and physical frailty. Despite its importance, validated tools for OF assessment are limited, preventing early detection and intervention. The Oral Frailty Index-8 (OFI-8) is a questionnaire
