Endothelial PDGF Signaling Dysregulation Impairs Testicular Interstitial Homeostasis in Diabetes

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Testicular endothelial cells (TECs) function as central signaling hubs that coordinate interstitial homeostasis. Diabetes disrupts TEC‐derived PDGF signaling, silences the JUND‐MCL1 survival program in Leydig cells, and impairs peritubular function, leading to fibrosis and testosterone insufficiency.

Enhancement of Calcium Ion Permeation via Resonant Coupling of Ion and Terahertz Waves in Voltage Gated Calcium Channels

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We introduce a novel, ion‐targeted strategy to enhance calcium permeation in voltage gated calcium channels. By directly driving the ions’ coherent collective motion via resonant coupling with a 1.65 THz field, we lower the inter‐site energy barrier, inducing a statistically significant enhancement of ion influx.

Postsynaptic Complexin Mediates Constitutive Exocytosis of Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptor

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Beyond its established presynaptic role, complexin is identified as a postsynaptic regulator of neurotransmitter receptor trafficking. By promoting constitutive and activity‐dependent exocytosis of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors, complexin controls spontaneous synaptic signaling at the C.

Recrudescence of Scarlet Fever and Its Implications for Dental Professionals

International Dental Journal, 2023
A significant increase in the incidence of scarlet fever, mainly in Europe, has been noted during the COVID-19 postpandemic period. Scarlet fever is caused by a pyrogenic exotoxin-producing streptococcus—Streptococcus pyogenes—responsible for more than ...

The ITGB2‐COPS3‐SOX2 Axis and SOX2 Liquid‐Liquid Phase Separation: Dual Mechanisms Governing Osteosarcoma Stemness

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Osteosarcoma stemness is driven by the ITGB2‐COPS3‐SOX2 signaling axis. This study reveals that nuclear COPS3 stabilizes SOX2, which in turn undergoes liquid‐liquid phase separation to promote stemness. Based on this mechanism, a novel COPS3 inhibitor, Z‐5891, was developed, effectively suppressing tumor growth and stemness in vivo, offering a ...

Maize Anther Development Involves Translated Open Reading Frames From 3′ Untranslated Regions

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study examined the translation activity across ten stages of maize anther development, integrating transcriptome and small‐peptide data. It linked mutations in translated 3' ORFs to anther sterility, exemplified by Zm00001eb417050_3' ORF (known as APV1). In addition, the data indicated that maize anthers could assimilate CO2 through the stomata in

Phenotype Expansion of Malan Syndrome: New Cases and a Review of the Literature

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Malan syndrome is an ultra‐rare overgrowth syndrome caused by pathogenic variants or deletions in nuclear factor one X (NFIX) located at 19p13.2. Here, we report a comprehensive literature review and phenotyping of known patients with Malan syndrome and present a novel cohort of eight patients.

Effects of cadmium and lead concentrations and arbuscular mycorrhiza on growth, flowering and heavy metal accumulation in scarlet sage (Salvia splendens sello 'torreador')

Acta Agrobotanica, 2012
The objective of this research was to examine the influence of Cd (0, 10, 20, 40 mg Cd·dm-3) and Pb (0, 10, 100, 200 mg Pb·dm-3) in growing substrate and mycorrhizal colonization of root system on growth, flowering, Cd and Pb accumulation in scarlet sage
