British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Cardiac remodelling and fibrosis after myocardial infarction or during chronic diseases, such as arterial and pulmonary hypertension or diabetes mellitus, continue to be the more important prognostic factors in determining survival, and so the search for effective anti‐fibrotic interventions is an important target for research and therapy in cardiology.

TGFβ enhances platelet–breast‐cancer‐cell interaction and promotes platelet aggregation
The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.TGFβ stimulation promotes EMT in MCF7 cells, increasing their ability to bind, activate, and aggregate PLT. This effect involves the upregulation of adhesion molecules Integrin‐αv and Galectin‐3. Inhibiting Integrin‐αv or Galectin‐3, through Cilengitide and GB1103, reduces PLT adhesion to MCF7 and PLT aggregation, suggesting a mechanism linking TGFβ ...

A guide to the types, structures, and multifaceted functions of matrix metalloproteinases in cancer
The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.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

Hypoxia regulates Th17/Treg balance by altering chromatin accessibility and gene expression
The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.T‐cell differentiation into Th17 or iTreg cells is key to inflammation control. Integrated RNA‐seq and ATAC‐seq analyses reveal that hypoxia induces more extensive gene expression changes in iTreg cells. Elevated levels of Hif1a and Stat3, along with increased accessibility to key transcription factor motifs, may predispose these cells toward ...

Tissue Resident Memory Cells: Friend or Foe?
Immunology, EarlyView.Tissue‐resident memory T cells (TRM cells) are specialised immune cells in barrier tissues like the lungs, skin and gut, providing rapid host defence and tumour surveillance. Their retention and differentiation are regulated by molecules such as CD69, CD103 and TGF‐β. Dysregulation of TRM cells can lead to chronic activation, driving conditions such as

The exposomal imprint on rosacea: More than skin deep
Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, EarlyView.Rosacea reflects systemic and environmental interactions, not just a skin disorder. Key factors include environmental triggers, genetic and microbiome influences, diagnostic gaps in skin of colour and social determinants. Advances in multi‐omics and exposome integration highlight pathways towards precision medicine, prevention and equitable, patient ...

Systemic, Lifestyle and Environmental Modifying Factors in the Pathogenesis of Periodontitis
Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.A variety of impacting factors in the pathogenesis of periodontitis exist, including systemic, lifestyle, and environmental factors. This review highlights the manifold mechanistic aspects of the link between the pathogenesis of periodontitis, addressing these numerous factors to supplement the long‐standing knowledge of the progression of the disease.
