Hyaluronan and proteoglycans in ovarian follicles [PDF]
Proteoglycans are macromolecules formed by a protein backbone to which one or more glycosaminoglycan side chains are co-valently attached. They can be secreted by the cells, retained at the cell surface, or stored in intracellular vacuoles. Hyaluronan is an extremely long glycosaminoglycan which, at variance with other glycosaminoglycans, is released ...

A Microfluidic Device for Culturing an Encapsulated Ovarian Follicle
Microfluidic chips have been proved effective in mimicking different organs of human body. Simulating human ovarian follicles by microfluidic device will be useful in exploring the mechanism of folliculogenesis and related diseases.

Microbiota‐derived quinolinic acid is used as an alternative source of replenishing the intracellular NAD+ pool induced by SIRT3 deficiency to regulate intestinal epithelial cell and T cell function, which has implications for targeting intestinal epithelial cells as an approach to the treatment of immune‐associated diseases, including colorectal ...

HMGB2–RAD21 Axis Promotes Fibro/Adipogenic Progenitor Proliferation and Regulates Fat Infiltration
This study constructed the first developmental atlas of embryonic skeletal muscle fibro/adipogenic progenitors (FAPs) and identified an HMGB2+ FAPs subpopulation that regulates FAP pool size and muscle homeostasis. HMGB2 directly targets the RAD21 promoter, and its knockout significantly reduces FAP numbers, thereby lowering the potential for ...

Ovarian follicle burnout: A universal phenomenon? [PDF]
The ovarian follicle reserve is maintained in a delicate state of homeostasis aimed at preserving the majority of follicles in a dormant state. Key regulatory factors in follicle activation and quiescence include the PI3K/PTEN/Akt signaling pathway in the oocyte, as well as external paracrine inhibitory factors such as anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) (Fig.
