Role of S1P‐ and Rho‐kinase signalling in age‐related myogenic tone deficiency in murine resistance arteries

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Ageing is a risk factor for cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases. The myogenic response in resistance arteries is responsible for basal (myogenic) tone and blood flow autoregulation. G‐protein‐coupled receptors and G12/RhoA/Rho kinase are implicated in myogenic tone (MT), and we aimed to clarify their role in pressure sensing and ...

Astrocytes: Orchestrators of brain gas exchange and oxygen homeostasis

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Oxygen and carbon dioxide enter the body via breathing; in the brain astrocytes play a key role balancing oxygen delivery with carbon dioxide removal. Abstract If we consider neurons like muscles during exercise, the demand for oxygen (O2) and carbon dioxide (CO2) elimination is constantly changing.

Targeting ecto‐5′‐nucleotidase (CD73) and cAMP alleviates carotid body hyperactivity and reduces blood pressure in chronically hypoxic rats

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend CD73 promotes carotid body hyperactivity in chronically hypoxic animals. Exposure to chronic hypoxia (CH) (FiO2 of 12% for 10 days) increases the proportion of CD73+TH+ cells in the carotid body and induces basal chemoafferent hyperactivity.

On why cancer cells require a great amount of glucose

open access: yesQuantitative Biology, Volume 14, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract The traditional thinking has been that cancer cells require a great amount of glucose to support their rapid growth, but the reality may be different. We have previously demonstrated that all cancer cells in The Cancer Genome Atlas harbor persistent Fenton reactions in their cytosol, which generate OH− ${\text{OH}}^{-}$ and ultimately kill the
