Neutrophil Extracellular Traps in Atherosclerosis and Cardiovascular Disease

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 10, October 2026.
NETs as integrated effectors in the atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease continuum. Activated neutrophils release NETs that promote endothelial injury, thrombo‐inflammation, and plaque destabilization throughout atherosclerotic disease progression. Created with BioRender.com.

Mitochondrial Fusion and Fission in Age‐Related Cardio‐Cerebral Diseases: Mechanisms and Interventions

open access: yesAging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 10, October 2026.
Mitochondrial fission‐fusion imbalance contributes to age‐related cardio‐cerebral diseases like Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Cerebral Infarction, Arteriosclerosis, Myocardial Infarction, Cardiac valve disease, Hypertension, and Cardiomyopathy. This review summarizes its regulatory mechanisms and interventions.

Cellular Responses to Mechanical Cues Across Scales: From Fundamental Insights to Translational Potential

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 35, 18 September 2026.
This review examines how cellular behavior is regulated by mechanical cues transmitted through soft biomaterials, from single‐cell mechanosensing to tissue‐level adaptation. It highlights why physiological relevance, rather than model complexity alone, is critical for translational mechanobiology and introduces a scoring framework linking material ...

Mechanotransduction of Magnetically Applied Forces Leads to Mechanical Stiffening of Platelet‐Rich Plugs

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 34, 11 September 2026.
A microfluidic device with magnetic microposts was used to assess platelet mechanobiology. The oscillatory actuation of posts with embedded iron particles was dampened by the dynamic stiffening of the platelet‐rich plugs. This stiffening process increased with applied load, but inhibiting platelet activation (ASA) or myosin contractility (blebbistatin)

Mechanical Activation of Piezo1 Drives Osteoarthritis Through Kdm5c‐Mediated Epigenetic Silencing

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 50, 7 September 2026.
Excessive mechanical stress activates Piezo1, triggering Ca2+‐dependent cytoskeletal forces that deform the nucleus and reduce H3K4me3. Kdm5c demethylates H3K4me3 at Col2a1 and Runx3 promoters. Kdm5c knockout rescues degradation. Repurposed telmisartan directly inhibits Kdm5c, blocking this axis and showing disease‐modifying efficacy in mouse OA models

Stiffness‐Activated Stellate Cells Drive Pancreatic Cancer Liver Colonization via GMFG‐TNS4 Signaling

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 51, 14 September 2026.
Fibrotic liver stiffness activates hepatic stellate cells through Piezo1‐dependent calcium influx and ER stress, promoting EV‐associated GMFG release. Delivered GMFG engages TNS4 in pancreatic cancer cells, triggering FAK/AKT signaling, adhesion, and fatty acid synthesis.

THBS1+ Macrophages Exacerbate Modic Changes via SDC4‐Dependent Activation of NLRP3 Inflammasome

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 53, 24 September 2026.
The illustration of THBS1+ macrophages exacerbate MCs via SDC4‐dependent activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome. THBS1+ macrophage subpopulation was identified in MCs through single‐cell RNA sequencing. C. acnes and its metabolites activate THBS1 expression in macrophages via the TLR signaling pathway.
