Targeting CXCR2 in Nociceptive Sensory Neurons Offers Novel Therapeutic Potentials for Postoperative Pain

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Tissue incision induces CXCL5 release, which activates neuronal CXCR2 on incision‐innervating sensory neurons. Neuronal CXCR2 couples with TRPA1 to drive mechanical pain and engages p38 MAPK signaling to upregulate TRPV1 and promote heat pain. Targeted Cxcr2 knockdown relieves incisional pain while preserving CXCR2‐dependent neutrophil responses ...

Single‐Cell Profiling Reveals a Protective WNT5A‐ATF3‐FOSB Signaling Axis in Hair Follicle Stem Cells During Androgenetic Alopecia

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is a common form of hair loss with limited treatment options. Silencing of WNT5A signaling, which is widely known as the trigger of the ncWNT signaling pathway, happens in hair follicle stem cells from balding areas. It leads to downregulation of ATF3 and its target FOSB.

Perceived Time Shapes Physical Fatigue Accumulation and Its Neural Oscillatory Correlates

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Can a clock change the course of physical fatigue? By covertly manipulating the clock calibration during repeated isometric contractions, we showed that perceived time shapes fatigue accumulation and frontal oscillatory dynamics. While fatigue accumulation was only reduced when the clock was slowed down, frontal oscillatory dynamics followed perceived ...
