Endothelial Function Is Associated With Incident Diabetes Mellitus: The ELSA‐Brasil Cohort Study
ABSTRACT Aims Diabetes mellitus is associated with endothelial dysfunction, but the bidirectional nature of this relationship remains debated. We aimed to evaluate the association between microvascular endothelial function and incident diabetes in Brazilian adults and to assess potential effect modification by obesity status.

A guide to the types, structures, and multifaceted functions of matrix metalloproteinases in cancer
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) orchestrate cancer progression and metastasis through proteolytic and non‐proteolytic actions. By remodeling the tumor microenvironment, enhancing growth factor availability, and modulating cell behavior, MMPs promote proliferation, migration or invasion, and epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition. Alongside extracellular

Although known for its role in hemostasis, there is a growing body of evidence that thrombin can induce leukocyte recruitment and contribute to the inflammatory response. An in vitro parallel-plate flow chamber was used to systematically examine thrombin-

The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a dynamic scaffold that orchestrates tissue architecture and cellular communication. A critical but underexplored interplay between proteases and cluster of differentiation molecules (CD) governs ECM turnover and directs cell fate.

ADAM17 and its proteolytic targets in disease pathogenesis
ADAM17 as a multifunctional sheddase with contrasting roles across inflammatory, metabolic, cardiovascular, and neoplastic diseases. Through regulated activation by iRhom, iTAP/FRMD8, and tetraspanins, ADAM17 cleaves diverse membrane ligands and receptors, thereby promoting inflammation, fibrosis, obesity, insulin resistance, and tumor progression ...

Proteolytic remodelling of the extracellular matrix by pericytes
Pericytes are specialised perivascular cells intimately connected with endothelial cells and essential for the maintenance of vascular beds. They contribute to the formation and remodelling of the extracellular matrix by actively secreting proteases and protease inhibitors.

The sorting nexin Snx21 promotes flotillin‐mediated endocytosis
In this study, we describe a novel function of the previously uncharacterized Snx21 protein as a specific positive regulator of flotillin‐mediated endocytic trafficking. Snx21 is recruited to endosomal membranes via binding to PI(3)P, and it colocalizes with flotillins on the surface of late endosomes.

Orexin B Reduces Cerebral Aneurysms Through Inhibition of SP-1. [PDF]
Orexin B/OX2R signaling attenuates cerebral aneurysm formation by suppressing SP‐1‐mediated inflammation, macrophage infiltration, and endothelial adhesion, with OX2R knockdown abolishing these protective effects. The study highlights Orexin B as a therapeutic candidate targeting vascular inflammation and remodeling in aneurysms.
