Redefining CHI3L1: Therapeutic Opportunities at the Crossroads of Immune Suppression and Disease Progression

open access: yesMedicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chitinase‐3‐like‐1 (CHI3L1, also known as YKL‐40) has been recognized as a biomarker of inflammation and tissue remodeling and has now emerged as a pseudoenzymatic immune checkpoint. Recent structural, immunological, and translational studies redefine it as an active regulator of immune suppression rather than a passive disease marker. Despite

Diagnosis of Portal Hypertension: Advancing Towards Non‐Invasive Solutions

open access: yesPortal Hypertension &Cirrhosis, EarlyView.
This review systematically summarizes a full spectrum of non‐invasive diagnostic approaches for portal hypertension (PH), including imaging modalities, elastography, serum biomarkers, composite scoring systems and endoscopic ultrasound‐guided portal pressure gradient (EUS‐PPG), and analyzes their performance across different liver disease etiologies ...

Four‐dimensional immuno‐mechanobiomaterials: Dynamic material cues that program host response to prevent fibrosis and enable regeneration

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Dynamic immuno‐mechanobiomaterials with time‐programmed mechanical adaptation orchestrate host responses through precise mechanotransduction and immune‐stromal regulation. These adaptive biomaterials minimize mechanical mismatch, attenuate the forign dy response and fibrosis, promote angiogenesis and controlled extracellular matrix remodeling, and ...

Update on Non‐Biological and RNA‐Based Therapeutics in Chronic Inflammatory Diseases: Precision Medicine Through Small Molecules: An EAACI Position Paper

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the last decades, critical advancements in research technology and knowledge on disease mechanisms steered therapeutic approaches for chronic inflammatory diseases towards unprecedented target specificity. For allergic and chronic lung diseases, biologic drugs pioneered this goal, acquiring on the way—through the clinical use of monoclonal ...

Role of ANO1‐Expressing PDGFRα+ Smooth Muscle Cells in Generating Spontaneous Phasic Contractions of the Rodent Epididymis

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Spontaneous phasic contractions (SPCs) in the epididymal duct play an important role in transport and maturation of sperm. In proximal cauda of the rat epididymis, platelet‐derived growth factor receptor α (PDGFRα)‐positive smooth muscle cells (SMCs) generate ANO1 Ca2+‐activated chloride channels (CaCCs)‐dependent spontaneous ...

Exploring the Passive Second Stage of Labour and Related Perinatal Outcomes in a Physiological Cohort

open access: yesBirth, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The passive second stage of labor has been increasingly recognized as a normal phase of labor. However, it remains poorly studied, especially in healthy women. This study aims to assess the passive phase in healthy laboring women and maternal and neonatal outcomes.

The nitty‐gritty of vascular permeability in cancer: targeting blood endothelium to control metastases

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Blood vascular permeability is a hallmark of cancer and acts as an active driver of metastatic dissemination. Metastasis accounts for the vast majority of cancer deaths, yet most work has focussed on tumour‐intrinsic traits and angiogenesis, while the specific contribution of endothelial barrier regulation to intravasation and extravasation remains ...

Chd4 and ThPOK cooperate to preserve structural and electrophysiological integrity of the adult heart through Sprr1a repression

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Chd4/NuRD and ThPOK cooperate to maintain transcriptional repression and nuclear organization in adult cardiomyocytes. Chd4 loss reduces miR‐150‐5p, relieving repression of Sprr1a, while ThPOK loss further enhances Sprr1a activation, possibly through altered chromatin–lamina interactions.

Cannabinoid exposure during pregnancy: Cardiorespiratory effects and offspring outcomes

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Prenatal exposure to cannabinoids has been investigated across human and animal studies to understand its impact on physiological development. Evidence suggests that early‐life cannabinoid exposure influence multiple developmental processes, extending beyond neurodevelopmental outcomes to potentially affect placental function ...

4D ultrasound reveals regional left atrial strain remodelling in a murine model of reversible pressure overload

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Traditional planar imaging approaches of the left atrium do not capture complex geometry. Four‐dimensional imaging allows the acquisition of 3D data + time to visualize left atrial geometry and kinematics. We designed an advanced analysis technique to investigate left atrial biomechanics in a model of pressure overload and ...
