Insulin Resistance: An Update on Biochemical and Pathophysiological Mechanisms and Impact on Various Diseases

open access: yesiNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Insulin resistance is the biological phenomenon in which the human body's normal response to the metabolic hormone insulin is compromised. Insulin is a regulator of most of the essential metabolic steps in the body that control energy homoeostasis, so dysregulation leads to multiple diverse human diseases including, most prominently, Type 2 ...

The Endothelial CXCR Family in Vascular Health and Disease

open access: yesiNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Endothelial cells (ECs) form the dynamic interface between blood and tissue, serving as key regulators of vascular homeostasis, inflammation, and repair. Among the molecular systems governing endothelial behavior, the C‐X‐C motif chemokine receptor (CXCR) family—originally characterized in immunology for its roles in leukocyte trafficking and ...

A New Paradigm: 46 Structural Cell Types Function as Environment‐Supporting Innate Immune Cells, With Endothelial and Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells as Key Prototypes

open access: yesiNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The scope, organization, and biological significance of innate immune functions across structural cell types remain poorly defined. To address these fundamental knowledge gaps, we analyzed experimental data of transcriptomes generated by our group and others.

TRIM31–LOX‐1 Axis: A Novel Therapeutic Frontier in Atherosclerosis

open access: yesiNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Atherosclerosis, driven by a vicious cycle of lipid accumulation and chronic inflammation, underlies most cardiovascular diseases. Macrophages exacerbate this process by internalizing oxidized low‐density lipoprotein (oxLDL), forming foam cells, and releasing inflammatory mediators. A recent study published in Circulation identified the TRIM31–

Emerging Human‐Based Research Technologies for Investigating the Pathomechanisms and Therapies for Vascular Diseases

open access: yesiNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT It is estimated that a large proportion of drug candidates fail in human clinical trials, mainly because animal models cannot fully replicate human disease and because of differential responses to various medications between humans and animals.

Single‐Cell Profiling Identifies CLEC5A+ Macrophages as Key Drivers of Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm Via CCL5‐Mediated M1 Polarization

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
Thoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA) is a life‐threatening cardiovascular disease with limited therapeutic options. Through single‐cell RNA sequencing of aortic tissues from healthy individuals and TAA patients (105,541 cells), we identified CLEC5A+macrophages as the predominant pathogenic cell population exhibiting the highest M1 polarization score.
