Porphyromonas gingivalis GroEL accelerates abdominal aortic aneurysm formation by matrix metalloproteinase‐2 SUMOylation in vascular smooth muscle cells: A novel finding for the activation of MMP‐2

open access: yesMolecular Oral Microbiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Infection is a known cause of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), and matrix metalloproteases‐2 (MMP‐2) secreted by vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) plays a key role in the structural disruption of the middle layer of the arteries during AAA progression.

Association of patient age with Picrosirius red collagen content in prostate tissues.

open access: yes, 2014
The association of Picrosirius red collagen content and patient age at time of surgery was investigated in cohorts of BPH only tissues (TURP set), a combination of BPH and normal prostate tissue (TMA set [all patients]), and a subset of only normal ...

Periodontitis and metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease with systemic effects that extend beyond the oral cavity and contribute to systemic immune and metabolic dysregulation. Chronic liver diseases, particularly metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and its progressive phenotypes, have emerged as major global ...

mTOR blockade prevents progressive proteinuria but induces hyperglycaemia in obese Dahl salt‐sensitive rats before puberty

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Previous studies have demonstrated that mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) activity is significantly increased in the kidneys of Dahl salt‐sensitive (SS) rats during the development of renal injury. Therefore, in the present study we examined whether blockade of mTOR with rapamycin inhibits renal injury in Dahl salt‐sensitive leptin receptor

Fibrotic remodeling in the NOD/ShiLtJ mouse model of Sjögren’s disease: insights from single-cell transcriptomics and AI-driven ECM quantification

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
IntroductionSjögren's Disease (SjD) is an autoimmune disorder characterized by salivary gland hypofunction and lymphocytic infiltration, yet the contribution of fibrosis to glandular dysfunction remains unclear.MethodsWe evaluated the NOD/ShiLtJ mouse as

Systemic pirfenidone treatment fails to mitigate fibrosis and compromises functional recovery in a porcine model of volumetric muscle loss

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Repurposing clinically approved antifibrotic agents presents a potential near‐term therapeutic strategy to mitigate the extensive fibrotic scarring that follows severe volumetric muscle loss (VML) injury and inhibits functional recovery. We hypothesized that daily oral administration of pirfenidone, an FDA‐approved antifibrotic, would mitigate

Semaglutide impacts skeletal muscle to a similar extent as caloric restriction in mice with diet‐induced obesity

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Four weeks of semaglutide treatment causes significant reductions in total body weight, fat mass, lean mass, and grip strength in mice with diet induced obesity. Mice treated with semaglutide lost a greater amount of total body weight and fat mass compared to mice fed fed a calorie matched diet.
