Transcriptional regulation of human NMNAT2: insights from 3D genome sequencing and bioinformatics
NMNAT2 is a valuable drug target, as low levels increase the risk of neurodegeneration. We employed 4C‐seq to identify NMNAT2 regulatory regions in the human genome, revealing distinct interactomes of the NMNAT2 promoter in undifferentiated and neuron‐like SH‐SY5Y cells. Additionally, we uncovered NMNAT2‐associated genes and transcription factors. This

Melatonin and the Dental Pulp: A Scoping Review
ABSTRACT Background In general medicine, melatonin is known to enhance wound healing and promote stem cell differentiation. Its potential relevance in endodontics, however, remains underexplored. Objectives This scoping review aimed to systematically assess the available evidence on the effects of melatonin (a) on dental pulp tissue and (b) on human ...

Under physiological conditions, deformable erythrocytes pass smoothly through the capillary network, maintaining retinal capillary perfusion (A). In pathological conditions, reduced erythrocyte deformability causes irregular passage and stagnation within capillaries, resulting in localized blood flow stasis and microvascular congestion, leading to ...

The expression of various genes involved in synapse development, stability and/or function was studied in developing mechanosensory neuromasts and electrosensory ampullary organs in sterlet sturgeon. Most were shared, including Slc17a8, Slc1a3 and Nrxn3, but Cbln18 was neuromast‐restricted and Tulp1 was ampullary organ‐restricted.

Using microscopy and 3D confocal imaging on seven cadaveric eyes, we identified sympathetic nerves closely associated with β₂‐adrenergic receptor‐expressing macrophages in the human ciliary body (CB). These findings suggest a sympathetic‐macrophage neuroimmune link in the CB, potentially influencing ocular inflammation and degeneration, warranting ...
