ABSTRACT Excess adiposity is not a recently developed problem but has existed since at least the upper Paleolithic, allowing evolutionary selection pressures to adapt the physiology of the pregnant woman and the feto‐placental unit for maternal and fetal protection.

Pleiotropic immunoregulation by bile acids in pathophysiology
Bile acids (BAs) have evolved from their classical role in lipid digestion to become central signaling molecules that integrate host metabolism, gut microbiota, and immune function.

Retinoids (all trans and 9-cis retinoic acid) are pleiotropic regulators of cell fate, and have been shown to regulate the expression of helix loop helix transcription factors (e.g MyoD, myogenin and Myf-5) that control myogenic differentiation.

SIRT1, an NAD+‐dependent deacetylase, supports cognitive resilience by coordinating neuroprotection, synaptic plasticity, autophagy–lysosomal proteostasis, and mitochondrial energy homeostasis. Reduced or dysregulated SIRT1 is associated with protein aggregation, neuroinflammation, mitochondrial dysfunction, synaptic loss, and cognitive decline in ...

Importance of retinoic acid and retinoid receptors in zebrafish (Danio rerio) ovarian function [PDF]
Recent studies have suggested that retinoic acid (RA) plays an essential role in reproduction in zebrafish. My studies involved the use of Real-Time PCR to characterize the mRNA expression encoding five isoforms of retinoid x receptors and one form of ...

This study explores the impact of environmental pollutants on nuclear receptors (CAR, PXR, PPARα, PPARγ, FXR, and LXR) and their heterodimerization partner, the Retinoid X Receptor (RXR).

A Novel SXXLF Motif in the FXR N‐Terminal Domain Mediates Coregulator and Interdomain Interactions
Farnesoid X receptor (FXR)‐N‐terminal domain (NTD) regulates transcriptional activity through interdomain communication with the LBD and is also involved in co‐activator recruitment. The SENLF motif is the first defined functional element within the FXR‐NTD and mediates both NTD–LBD interaction and selective co‐activator engagements to drive NTD ...

Slow‐transit constipation (STC) is a disabling motility disorder with unclear smooth‐muscle mechanisms. Spatial proteomic analysis of STC patient colon reveals both the central pathogenic role of smooth muscle cells (SMCs) in STC and novel regulators of intestinal motility, BIN1 and ALDH1B1.

Syntaxin‐3 Regulates Tight Junction Assembly in Human Retinal Pigment Epithelium
ABSTRACT The retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) consists of polarized epithelial cells, serving as a support system for photoreceptor maintenance, where the polarity is contributed by the distribution of syntaxins (STX) within the cell. STX3, a known regulator of apical trafficking in epithelial cells, was previously understood to be absent in human RPE ...
