ABSTRACT Background Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), a common pregnancy complication characterized by maternal hyperglycemia, negatively impacts offspring health. Skeletal muscle, a critical tissue for glucose and lipid metabolism, is especially vulnerable to prenatal environmental insults.

ABSTRACT Background Sarcopenic obesity, where excess body fat coexists with reduced muscle mass and function, is becoming increasingly common in ageing populations and contributes to poor physical and metabolic health. Although adipose tissue–secreted factors are implicated in muscle decline, the specific mechanisms remain unclear.

Chronic Granulomatous Disease: Clinical and Molecular Characterization of Brazilian Patients
Chronic granulomatous disease is a rare inborn error of immunity characterized by the deficient production of reactive oxygen species in phagocytes, which are used in pathogen elimination. Affected individuals become susceptible to severe infections.

Transcriptional Adaptations to Muscle Loading in a Murine Model of Achilles Tendinopathy
ABSTRACT Achilles tendinopathy limits mobility and decreases quality of life. Physical therapy (eccentric muscle loading) improves tendon function; however, the underlying mechanisms are unknown. This study investigated the effect of load magnitude and treatment duration in a mouse Achilles tendinopathy model.

ABSTRACT Objective We investigated the impact of sex on the subcutaneous adipose tissue (AT) transcriptome and its obesity‐related adaptations. Methods We studied rare BMI‐discordant monozygotic twin pairs (ΔBMI > 2.5 kg/m2; 21 female, 16 male pairs) to assess how sex affects AT and whole‐body metabolism.

This review illustrates how intracellular bacterial pathogens—such as Brucella, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, and Legionella—secrete effector proteins that specifically target the IRE1α, PERK, and ATF6 branches of the unfolded protein response (UPR) to hijack ER stress signaling.
