The diagram depicts the endothelial‐protective mechanism of magnesium lithospermate B (MLB) in sepsis‐associated lung injury. MLB binds GPX4 at Gly79, disrupts its interaction with FUNDC1, prevents mitophagy‐mediated GPX4 degradation, restores mitophagic flux, reduces ROS, and limits ferroptosis.

This resting‐state functional MRI (rs‐fMRI) study identifies distinct patterns of spontaneous brain activity in patients with diabetic kidney disease (DKD) compared to non‐diabetic kidney disease (non‐DKD). Altered functional connectivity (FC) between the putamen and specific brain regions implicates its potential significance as a key neural target in

The Thoracic Lymphatic Vasculature: Interorgan Strategies to Achieve an Optimal Tissue Function
In the thorax, organ‐specific features such as stomata and submesothelial lacunae, pulmonary perivascular and peribronchial vessels, and subepicardial lymphatic network allow the thoracic lymphatics to perform as a dynamically regulated system able to exploit local mechanical forces and tissue‐specific architecture to maintain fluid and solute ...
