Engineering In Vitro Models of Skeletal Muscle With Neuromuscular Junctions Using Hierarchical Micro‐Nano Biomaterials: Cooperative Effect of Adhesion Ligand Nanoclustering and Surface Anisotropy

Small, EarlyView.
This study investigates the cooperative effects of adhesive ligand distribution, density, and biomaterial morphology for innervated skeletal muscle tissue engineering. Ligand nanoclusters were created in aligned micropatterns by electrospinning of a RAFT‐synthesized polymer with controlled ligand presentation.

Environmental Mycotoxins and Brain Health: Protective Role of Bromelain Against Fumonisin B1 in SH‐SY5Y Cells

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fumonisin B1 (FB1), a mycotoxin commonly found in contaminated food and feed, has been increasingly implicated in neurotoxicity, although its mechanisms remain poorly understood. This study investigates the neurotoxic potential of FB1 in human SH‐SY5Y neuroblastoma cells, both undifferentiated and RA‐differentiated, and evaluates the ...

New ligands of the Cellular Retinoic Acid-Binding Protein 2 (CRABP2) suggest a role for this protein in chromatin remodeling

Revista de Ciências Farmacêuticas Básica e Aplicada, 2014
Retinoic acid (RA) regulates the transcription of a series of genes involved in cell proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis by binding to the RA Receptor (RAR) and Retinoid X Receptor (RXR) heterodimers. The cellular retinoic acid-binding protein 2

Evaluating Thiram‐Induced Embryotoxicity Using Integrated In Silico, In Vitro, and Transcriptomic Approaches

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Long‐term exposure to low‐dose food contact materials (FCMs) has raised concerns regarding developmental toxicity. In the present study, we prioritized FCMs with potential developmental toxicity using a weight‐of‐evidence computational model, which predicted 127 chemicals to be of high concern.

A Novel Signaling Driven by the Stem Cell Marker ALDH1A3 Promotes Glioblastoma Cell Mobility

Cells
Glioblastoma (GBM) is an extremely invasive and incurable tumor. We previously reported predominant ALDH1A3 expression at the invasive front of GBM tumors, which was associated with shorter patient survival, and further showed that ALDH1A3 promoted tumor

Integrative Bioinformatics, Experimental Validation, and Interpretable Machine Learning Reveal Oxyresveratrol‐Mediated Protection Against Cadmium‐Induced Lung Adenocarcinoma‐Related Transcriptional Dysregulation

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic heavy metal strongly implicated in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) through mechanisms involving oxidative stress, epigenetic dysregulation, and chronic inflammation. This study aimed to identify Cd‐responsive genes associated with LUAD and to evaluate the protective effects of oxyresveratrol (O‐RES) against Cd‐induced ...

Exposure to Structurally Related Organophosphate Esters Elicits Distinct Metabolomic Perturbations in Daphnia magna

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Organophosphate esters (OPEs) are found ubiquitously in the environment and exposure to these chemicals has induced behavioral, developmental, and morphological impairments in several model organisms. Yet there is still a lack of understanding of how sub‐lethal exposure disrupts organism function at the molecular‐level, especially for Daphnia ...

Decreased Production of Tissue Plasminogen Activator in Endothelial Cells From Nasal Polyps

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Previous studies have demonstrated that chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is characterized by excessive fibrin deposition which is related to impaired production of tissue plasminogen activator(t‐PA) by epithelial cells.
