Fibroblast Plasticity in Inflammation of the Barrier
Under inflammatory condition, fibroblasts in barrier tissues integrate inflammatory, senescent, and mechanical inputs. These pathways activate central signaling networks to drive fibroblast phenotypic transition, enabling cytokine production, immune cell recruitment, and extracellular matrix remodeling.

Pss knockdown in the midgut causes growth retardation in Drosophila similar to that in human LMHD
Abstract Background Phosphatidylserine synthase (PSS), localized in the mitochondrial membrane, synthesizes phosphatidylserine. In humans, mutations in Pss lead to Lenz–Majewski hyperostotic dwarfism, a disorder affecting growth and development. The effects of Pss mutations on the growth of Drosophila melanogaster are not fully known. Hence, this study

The effects of sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors on the ‘forgotten’ right ventricle
Abstract With the progress in diagnosis, treatment and imaging techniques, there is a growing recognition that impaired right ventricular (RV) function profoundly affects the prognosis of patients with heart failure (HF), irrespective of their left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF).

Considerations for drug trials in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
Abstract Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a heterogeneous condition with potentially serious manifestations. Management has traditionally comprised therapies to palliate symptoms and implantable cardioverter‐defibrillators to prevent sudden cardiac death. The need for disease‐modifying therapies has been recognized for decades.

Abstract Objective This study was undertaken to evaluate whether synaptic vesicle protein 2A (SV2A) expression on peripheral immune cells predicts treatment response to levetiracetam in epilepsy. Methods High‐dimensional flow cytometry was used to prospectively assess SV2A expression on immune cells from levetiracetam responders, nonresponders, and ...
