Non‐canonical PKG1 regulation in cardiovascular health and disease

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
It is well established that the cyclic GMP‐dependent protein kinase I (PKG1) is canonically activated by cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), enabling its regulation of vascular tone, cardiac function and smooth muscle homeostasis. However, diverse non‐canonical stimuli of PKG1 have also been identified.

Elucidation of the zinc binding site in KCNQ channels

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose KCNQ1‐5 (Kv7.1–7.5) are members of a family of voltage‐gated potassium channels with prominent function in the nervous and cardiovascular systems and in epithelia. KCNQ channels are activated by intracellular free zinc, but the molecular mechanism of this effect is poorly understood and zinc binding sites within KCNQ channels are

Exploring Siglecs: Potential Modulators of Immune Cells in Food Allergy and Therapeutic Applications

Clinical &Experimental Allergy, EarlyView.
Sialic acid‐binding immunoglobulin‐type lectins (Siglecs) are inhibitory receptors present on all immune cells involved in the allergic reaction. Currently, research is mostly focussed on targeting Siglecs on mast cells to possibly treat food allergies.

Six New Cases of 22q13.2 Gain Including TFC20: First Report of Triplication and Smallest Duplication Associated With Neurodevelopmental Delays

Clinical Genetics, EarlyView.
This study reports six new cases of 22q13.2 duplication and triplication, including the TCF20 gene, associated with neurodevelopmental disorders and various morphological and systemic abnormalities. The findings suggest a variable expressivity, but their complete penetrance remains uncertain compared to well‐established loss‐of‐function variants ...

Regulating the Plasticity of Hippocampal Neurons via Electroacupuncture in Depression Model Mice

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
This study explores the regulation of the plasticity of hippocampal neurons via electroacupuncture in corticosterone‐induced depression model mice. Electroacupuncture at the Zusanli (ST36) acupoint alleviated depression‐like symptoms and enhanced neuronal plasticity in the hippocampal CA1 region by upregulating BDNF and CaMKIIβ, highlighting its ...

Macrophage Efferocytosis as a Therapeutic Strategy in Intervertebral Disc Degeneration

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Macrophages, integral to degenerated intervertebral discs, play a critical role in disc degeneration. By performing efferocytosis, they clear apoptotic cells. This article explores the process of efferocytosis, its molecular mechanisms, potential therapeutic implications for intervertebral disc degeneration and future strategies for targeted treatments.

Piezo2 in Mechanosensory Biology: From Physiological Homeostasis to Disease‐Promoting Mechanisms

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Piezo2 channels are essential mechanotransducers regulating touch, proprioception and visceral mechanosensation across physiological systems, emerging as therapeutic targets for pathological mechanical hypersensitivity and neurogenic disorders. ABSTRACT Piezo2, a mechanically activated ion channel, serves as the key molecular transducer for touch ...

Ageing‐Dependent Thyroid Hormone Receptor α Reduction Activates IP3R1‐Meditated Ca2+ Transfer in MAM and Exacerbates Skeletal Muscle Atrophy in Mice

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
During skeletal muscle ageing, down‐regulation of TRα expression activates IP3R1 transcriptional expression, promotes MAM calcium transport, triggers mitochondrial calcium overload and apoptosis, leading to skeletal muscle atrophy. Restoring TRα expression can improve IP3R1‐mediated mitochondrial calcium overload and apoptosis in ageing skeletal muscle

Genetic variation in zoophagy and dietary shift in the phytozoophagous tarnished plant bug, Lygus lineolaris

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Phytozoophagous insects such as Lygus lineolaris feed on plants and prey. This study assessed the genetic variability and heritability of zoophagy and dietary shift in 15 isofemale lines with access to Ephestia kuehniella eggs and with or without access to plant resources.
