The Endothelial CXCR Family in Vascular Health and Disease

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Endothelial cells (ECs) form the dynamic interface between blood and tissue, serving as key regulators of vascular homeostasis, inflammation, and repair. Among the molecular systems governing endothelial behavior, the C‐X‐C motif chemokine receptor (CXCR) family—originally characterized in immunology for its roles in leukocyte trafficking and ...

Reversing brain aging: Targeting energy metabolism in endogenous neural stem cells

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
Mechanism of endogenous neural stem cells (eNSCs) energy metabolism disorder leading to brain aging and targeted eNSCs intervention strategies (By biorender). The disorder of energy metabolism of eNSCs can lead to their resting and aging, and eventually lead to brain aging.

COL1A1+ Epithelial Cells Orchestrate VEGFA‐VEGFR Signaling in Endometritis Revealed by Single‐Cell Analysis

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
Single‐cell RNA‐seq of normal and endometritis endometrium shows reduced epithelial cells and fate divergence toward ferroptosis or ribosome/antigen‐presentation programs. COL1A1+ epithelial cells act as an AP‐1–driven hub that enhances VEGFA–VEGFR signaling and remodels the vascular microenvironment.

Role of Rho-Associated Kinase in the Pathophysiology of Cerebral Cavernous Malformations

Neurology Genetics
Cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs) are vascular lesions characterized by a porous endothelium. The lack of a sufficient endothelial barrier can result in microbleeds and frank intracerebral hemorrhage. A primary mechanism for lesion development is a sequence variant in at least 1 of the 3 CCM genes (CCM1, CCM2, and CCM3), which influence various ...

Myeloid Focal Adhesion Kinase Promotes Macrophage Accumulation but Does Not Alter Tumor Progression in Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Molecular Carcinogenesis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) develops within an immunologically complex tumor microenvironment that is heavily shaped by infiltrating myeloid cells. Immune‐based treatment strategies such as atezolizumab plus bevacizumab have shown promising therapeutic benefits, but patients do not experience durable responses.

Organoid Coculture Models for Cancer Research and Immunotherapy

Med Research, EarlyView.
This review summarizes organoid coculture platforms, including submerged Matrigel culture, air–liquid interface, microfluidic/organoid‐on‐a‐chip, and 3D bioprinting, for reconstructing the tumor microenvironment to study tumor–stroma/immune crosstalk, evaluate immunotherapies, and enable drug screening.
