Mechanistic insights into severe pulmonary inflammation caused by silica stimulation: The role of macrophage pyroptosis

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2023
Respirable silica dust is a common hazard faced by occupational workers and prolonged exposure to this dust can lead to pulmonary inflammation, fibrosis and, in severe cases, silicosis.

Unveiling the Crucial Nexus: Mitochondrial Quality Control as a Central Driver in Metabolic Dysfunction‐Associated Steatotic Liver Disease Pathogenesis

open access: yesCell Proliferation, Volume 59, Issue 2, February 2026.
Mitochondrial quality control (MQC) impairment plays a central role in driving the pathogenesis of metabolism‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). Specifically, this is manifested as reduced mitophagy; increased mitochondrial fission and decreased fusion; and impaired mitochondrial biogenesis.

N-Glycosylation Regulates Pannexin 2 Localization but Is Not Required for Interacting with Pannexin 1 [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2018
Pannexins (Panx1, 2, 3) are channel-forming glycoproteins expressed in mammalian tissues. We previously reported that N-glycosylation acts as a regulator of the localization and intermixing of Panx1 and Panx3, but its effects on Panx2 are currently unknown.

Calorie Restriction Effects on Aging, Learning Performance, and Transcription in Aged Aplysia californica

open access: yesGenes, Brain and Behavior, Volume 25, Issue 1, February 2026.
Buccal ganglia inter‐ and motoneuronal transcriptional changes were investigated after learning food is inedible (LFI) in Aplysia californica reared on different diets at two ages. Those reared on calorie restriction showed delayed signs of aging and maintained their performance in LFI when aged while those reared on ad‐lib did not. ABSTRACT Along with

P2X7 Receptors as a Therapeutic Target in Cerebrovascular Diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2020
Shortage of oxygen and nutrients in the brain induces the release of glutamate and ATP that can cause excitotoxicity and contribute to neuronal and glial damage.

Gap junctional and ephaptic coupling in cardiac electrical propagation: homocellular and heterocellular perspectives

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, Volume 604, Issue 4, Page 1592-1606, 15 February 2026.
Abstract figure legend Intricate cellular electrical coupling networks in the heart. Various cell types couple the central cardiomyocyte through gap junctional contacts, with the exception of neurons. Whether ephaptic coupling (EpC) occurs in homocellular or heterocellular contexts beyond cardiomyocyte–cardiomyocyte interactions remains unclear ...

Powerful partnership: crosstalk between pannexin 1 and the cytoskeleton

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2014
Pannexin 1 (Panx1) large-pore ion and metabolite channels are emerging as key proteins in many physiological and pathophysiological scenarios. Recent evidence has tightly linked Panx1 trafficking and function to the cytoskeleton, a multi-component ...

Biomaterial Strategies for Targeted Intracellular Delivery to Phagocytes

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 1, 2 January 2026.
Phagocytes are essential to a functional immune system, and their behavior defines disease outcomes. Engineered particles offer a strategic opportunity to target phagocytes, harnessing inflammatory modulation in disease. By tuning features like size, shape, and surface, these systems can modulate immune responses and improve targeted treatment for a ...

The emerging Pannexin 1 signalome: a new nexus revealed?

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2014
Pannexins (Panxs) are a family of single-membrane, large-pore ion and metabolite permeable channels. Of the three Panx proteins, Panx1 has been most extensively studied, and has recently emerged as an exciting, clinically relevant target in many ...

Calhm6 Governs Macrophage Polarization Through Chp1‐Camk4‐Creb1 Axis and Ectosomal Delivery in Inflammatory Responses

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 1, 5 January 2026.
Calhm6 drives M2 macrophage polarization via the Chp1‐Camk4‐Creb1 axis, suppressing inflammation through calcium‐dependent ectosomal delivery. Calhm6 deficiency enhances M1 responses, boosting bactericidal activity but exacerbating tissue damage. LPS/IFNγ upregulate Calhm6 via Irf1, while IL‐4/Stat6 inhibits it, balancing immune outcomes.
