Astrocytic PERK Deficiency Drives Prefrontal Circuit Dysfunction and Depressive‐Like Behaviors
Chen et al. show that the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress sensor PERK is downregulated in prefrontal cortex (PFC) astrocytes in major depressive disorder and in chronic‐stress mouse models. In young mice, astrocyte‐specific PERK loss reduces the synaptogenic cue thrombospondin‐1 (TSP1), leading to synaptic and circuit deficits and depressive‐like ...

RUNX2 Activation in Fibro/Adipogenic Progenitors Promotes Muscle Fibrosis in Muscular Dystrophy
This study revealed a novel role of the chemokine‐TGF‐β1‐RUNX2 axis in determining the fate of FAP differentiation and modulating muscle fibrosis in patients and mice with muscular dystrophies. ABSTRACT Clinical evidence indicates concurrent muscle inflammation and fibrosis in muscular dystrophies (MDs); however, the molecular mechanisms underlying ...

KRAS Withdrawal in Cholangiocarcinoma Leads to Immune Infiltration and Tumor Regression
Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) driven by oncogenic KRAS depends on its continuous activation for tumor maintenance. Using a conditional KRAS model, the authors show that turning off KRAS triggers rapid tumor regression accompanied by immune cell infiltration and cytokine release. The findings uncover a KRAS–senescence–immune signaling axis and highlight KRAS

Nasal Mucosa‐Derived Extracellular Vesicles as a Systemic Antiaging Intervention
This study shows that nasal mucosa‐derived extracellular vesicles (nmEVs) exert systemic anti‐ageing effects in mice by restoring circadian rhythm, suppressing cellular senescence, and improving cognitive function. In aged human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, nmEVs reverse senescence‐associated phenotypes and reactivate core clock gene expression.
