Recent advances of nanomaterials in imaging liver fibrosis

open access: yesBMEMat, Volume 3, Issue 2, June 2025.
Schematic summary on the latest strategies of liver fibrosis imaging based on various nanomaterials. Abstract Liver fibrosis is a pathological process resulting from prolonged exposure to various injury factors. It is characterized by the abnormal proliferation and activation of hepatic stellate cells and excessive deposition of extracellular matrix ...

Relaxin mimetic in pulmonary hypertension associated with left heart disease: Design and rationale of Re‐PHIRE

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 3, Page 1956-1964, June 2025.
Abstract Aims Despite receiving guideline‐directed medical heart failure (HF) therapy, patients with pulmonary hypertension associated with left heart disease (PH‐LHD) experience higher mortality and hospitalization rates than the general HF population.

The Different Ligand-Binding Modes of Relaxin Family Peptide Receptors RXFP1 and RXFP2 [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Endocrinology, 2012
Relaxin and insulin-like peptide 3 (INSL3) are peptide hormones with a number of important physiological roles in reproduction, regulation of extracellular matrix turnover, and cardiovascular function. Relaxin and INSL3 mediate their actions through the closely related G-protein coupled receptors, relaxin family peptide receptors 1 and 2 (RXFP1 and ...

Early Onset Memory Deficit of WMI Rats Compared to Their Nearly Isogenic WLIs Is Reversed by Enriched Environment in Females

open access: yesGenes, Brain and Behavior, Volume 24, Issue 3, June 2025.
Enriched environment housing reverses memory deficits in middle‐aged WMI females and attenuates deficits in WMI males. Plasma levels of estradiol and hippocampal gene expression followed the same pattern as memory in WMI females following environmental enrichment and may be involved in reversing the effects of aging on cognitive decline.

Hormone receptor expression in human fascial tissue

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Histochemistry, 2016
Many epidemiologic, clinical, and experimental findings point to sex differences in myofascial pain in view of the fact that adult women tend to have more myofascial problems with respect to men. It is possible that one of the stimuli to sensitization of

Robust Spatial Cell‐Type Deconvolution with Qualitative Reference for Spatial Transcriptomics

open access: yesSmall Methods, Volume 9, Issue 5, May 17, 2025.
QR‐SIDE is a robust method to integrate cell‐type deconvolution and domain detection for spatial transcriptomics. By leveraging marker genes and spatial information, it uncovers tissue architecture and cell‐type compositions. Its adaptive modeling ensures resilience to noisy markers, and its flexibility supports applications across resolutions ...

Therapeutic and Prognostic Potential of G Protein‐Coupled Receptors in Lung Adenocarcinoma: Evidence From Transcriptome Data and In Vitro Experiments

open access: yesThe Clinical Respiratory Journal, Volume 19, Issue 5, May 2025.
This integrated analysis demonstrates the involvements of G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) in lung adenocarcinoma developments and proves the potential of five key GPCRs as prognostic biomarkers and targets in lung adenocarcinoma. ABSTRACT Background G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs), the largest family of cell‐surface molecules involve in various

Utilization of Bulk RNA Sequencing for the Evaluation of Keratin Nanomaterials as a Coating for Percutaneous Devices

open access: yesJournal of Biomedical Materials Research Part B: Applied Biomaterials, Volume 113, Issue 3, March 2025.
ABSTRACT Despite advances in the design and protocols for maintaining the skin/device interface around percutaneous devices (PDs), no current strategy ensures the permanent attachment of peri‐implant epithelial tissue to the device surface. Based on preliminary data, we hypothesized that PDs coated with keratin nanomaterials, resembling the fingernail ...
