P2X7 receptors promote atrial remodeling and atrial fibrillation susceptibility via reactive oxygen species‐mediated mitogen‐activated protein kinase signaling activation

Journal of Cell Communication and Signaling, Volume 20, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Atrial fibrillation (AF), the most common clinical arrhythmia, is driven by inflammatory activation and oxidative stress, though precise molecular links remain unclear. This study identifies the P2X7 receptor as a key upstream regulator orchestrating proarrhythmic atrial remodeling through reactive oxygen species (ROS)‐mediated mitogen ...

A Dynamic Change of Microglial States Occurs During the Transition From Photoreceptor Degeneration to Regeneration in Zebrafish pde6c Mutants

Glia, Volume 74, Issue 6, June 2026.
Zebrafish pde6c mutants undergo photoreceptor degeneration from 5 dpf, but rods regenerate from 4 wpf. scRNA‐seq of retinal microglia reveals dynamic change of states between 5 dpf and 4 wpf. Two states emerge specifically during regeneration. ABSTRACT Microglia, brain‐resident immune cells, maintain brain homeostasis.

The Antipsychotic Aripiprazole Induces Cytotoxicity in Bladder Cancer Cells While Preserving Urothelial and Bladder Function

Pharmacology Research &Perspectives, Volume 14, Issue 3, June 2026.
Current bladder cancer therapies can cause toxicity and bladder dysfunction. Brief intravesical‐like aripiprazole exposure reduced bladder cancer cell viability and was associated with redox stress and caspase‐3 activation, while ex vivo findings suggested preserved bladder structure and function, warranting further investigation as a potential ...

Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors and Immunomodulators for Cancer Immunotherapy: Insights Into Resistance and Therapeutic Strategies

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 25, 4 May 2026.
The schematic diagram illustrates the roles of novel immune checkpoints, immunomodulatory factors, cell death and multimodal technologies in cancer immunotherapy. Abstract Cancer immunotherapy has redefined cancer treatment. However, the molecular and cellular basis of immune evasion and therapeutic resistance remains incompletely understood.

Abi3S212F Alzheimer's disease variant alters plaque structure and disrupts microglia

Alzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Genetic variants affecting microglial function can influence Alzheimer's disease (AD) risk, yet the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. The AD‐associated ABI3S209F (Abi3S212F in mouse) variant regulates cytoskeletal dynamics, but its in vivo impact on pathology is unknown. METHODS: An Abi3S212F mouse was developed and crossed with

LL‐37: Biological Mechanisms and Emerging Therapeutic Applications in Intestinal Disease

Immunity, Inflammation and Disease, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Human cathelicidin peptide LL‐37 is encoded by the CAMP gene and plays a key role in innate immunity. It maintains intestinal homeostasis through antibacterial, immunomodulation, and tissue repair functions. This paper reviews the multiple functions of LL‐37 in the intestinal‐immune axis and its contribution to intestinal immune homeostasis. A

Chronic Pain: Epidemiology, Pathophysiology, and Clinical Management

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 5, May 2026.
The multidimensional nature of chronic pain is illustrated through four interconnected domains. (Left) Epidemiology and Global Burden: Chronic pain affects approximately one in five individuals globally, contributing to a rising trend in disability‐adjusted life years (YLDs) and a significant socioeconomic impact.

Metal‐Doped Carbon‐Based Nanomaterials: Photothermal Mechanism Innovation and Precision Therapy Advancement in Antibacterial and Antitumor Applications

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Metal‐doped carbon‐based nanomaterials (M‐CNM) play a strategically significant role in next‐generation precision antibacterial and antitumor therapies, as they integrate synergistic photothermal ablation, catalytic reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, and multimodal imaging capabilities. However, their clinical translation is hindered by
