Streptococcal Mannose Phosphotransferase System Component IID Is a Novel RANK‐Binding Osteoclastogenic Factor

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Streptococcal mannose phosphotransferase system component IID (Man‐PTSIID) is identified as a novel RANK‐binding osteoclastogenic factor. By directly binding to RANK and activating NF‐κB independently of TLR2, Man‐PTSIID drives osteoclastogenesis and inflammatory bone destruction, uncovering an unexpected microbial mechanism underlying streptococcal ...

The role of genomic Copy Number Variation (CNV) in osteoporosis [PDF]

, 2012
Copy number variation (CNV) is a relatively novel source of genetic variation, involving the duplication or deletion of segments of genomic DNA (gDNA) sequence, thereby changing the original number of DNA copies.

Matrix Stiffness Orchestrates Mesenchymal Stem Cell Lineage Commitment Toward Osteogenesis and Adipogenesis Through the PIEZO1/SP1/STC2 Axis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Matrix stiffness directs mesenchymal stem cell lineage commitment through PIEZO1‐dependent activation of the SP1/STC2 pathway. Stiff matrices favor osteogenesis and suppress adipogenesis, whereas the loss of PIEZO1 function impairs early bone formation. STC2 retains lineage‐regulatory activity even when PIEZO1 is inactive.

ACSL4‐Dependent Lysosomal Lipid Peroxidation Links WTAP‐Mediated m6A Modification to Intervertebral Disc Degeneration

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
IL‐1β upregulates the protein level of WTAP, which promotes the m6A modification of ACSL4 mRNA in an IGF2BP2‐dependent manner, thereby enhancing its stability. The increased ACSL4 drives lipid peroxidation, leading to lysosomal membrane permeabilization (LMP) and impaired mitophagy, which collectively accelerate intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD).

Factors Contributing to Improved Bone Mineral Density in Patients With Transfusion-Dependent Thalassemia. [PDF]

Kaohsiung J Med Sci
ABSTRACT Advances in therapy have extended the life expectancy of patients with thalassemia to near that of the general population; complications such as endocrine disorders and osteoporosis remain prevalent. This study aimed to identify endocrine complications, factors associated with endocrine complications, and changes in bone mineral density (BMD ...

THSD7A Exacerbates Atherosclerosis via Activation of Signaling Axis αvβ3/CEBPD/IL1A

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
THSD7A exerts pro‐inflammatory effects and exacerbates atherosclerosis. Mechanistically, THSD7A regulates endothelial cell inflammation and atherosclerosis by activating the αvβ3/CEBPD/IL1A signaling axis. THSD7A is not only a genetic marker but also a potential therapeutic target for coronary artery disease (CAD).

Similarity‐Enhanced Representation Learning of Non‐Canonical Amino Acids for Therapeutic Peptide Modeling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Non‐canonical amino acids (ncAAs) enhance peptide therapeutics but remain difficult to model computationally. SinCAA, a similarity‐enhanced pretraining framework, jointly optimizes contrastive learning guided by a novel conformational similarity metric with masked node reconstruction, capturing both functional relationships and chemical identity of ...

Gut Microbiota‐Derived Indole‐3‐Propionic Acid Alleviates Diabetic Osteoporosis Through Nrf2‐Mediated Ferroptosis Suppression

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Diabetes‐associated dysbiosis is accompanied by reduced Clostridium abundance, impaired microbial tryptophan metabolism, and lower circulating indole‐3‐propionic acid (IPA). Exogenous IPA improves trabecular microarchitecture and bone formation and restores Nrf2‐associated antioxidant signaling in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, limiting iron ...

Heavy Metal Contamination: Impacts From Plants to the Food Chain and Eco‐Friendly Amelioration Strategies

AgriFood: Journal of Agricultural Products for Food, EarlyView.
Heavy metal pollution reduces soil health and threatens food safety by entering plants; however, the use of nanoparticles, biofertilizers, and organic fertilizers such as biochar offers a promising strategy for improvement and sustainable agriculture. ABSTRACT Heavy metal (HM) pollution, resulting from human activities such as mining and the excessive ...
