Nanoplastics Impair GnRH Neuron Migration and Neuroendocrine Function: Emerging Players in the Pathogenesis of Reproductive Disorders

Small, Volume 22, Issue 15, 12 March 2026.
Little is known about the effects of polystyrene nanoplastics (PS‐NPs) on gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) neurons, which control puberty onset and fertility. By applying tailored in vitro GnRH neuron models, this article shows how PS‐NPs are internalized and impact hormone secretion and cell migration, through gene expression changes. Ultimately,

BHLHE40 Orchestrates Effector Tissue‐Resident Memory CD8+ T Cells and Limits Long‐Term Survival of Kidney Graft

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 10, 18 February 2026.
An effector subset of TRM, defined as CD49a+PD1hi CD8+ TRM, represents a BHLHE40‐orchestrated resident immune component that, rather than circulating cells, plays as a major contributor to allograft rejection. ABSTRACT Tissue‐resident memory T cells (TRM), which function against tumors, infections, and non‐self antigens in organ transplantation ...

Sema7A, a brain immune regulator, regulates seizure activity in PTZ‐kindled epileptic rats

CNS Neuroscience & Therapeutics, 2019
AbstractAimsSemaphorin7A (Sema7A) plays an important role in the immunoregulation of the brain. In our study, we aimed to investigate the expression patterns of Sema7A in epilepsy and further explore the roles of Sema7A in the regulation of seizure activity and the inflammatory response in PTZ‐kindled epileptic rats.MethodsFirst, we measured the Sema7A

Integrated multi‐omics analysis reveals metabolic reprogramming as a key driver of angiotensin II‐induced vascular remodeling

VIEW, Volume 7, Issue 1, February 2026.
This study investigates the molecular alterations underlying angiotensin II (Ang II)‐induced vascular remodeling in cardiovascular diseases using a multi‐omics approach. Through data exploration and integrated multi‐omics analysis, our findings reveal that Ang II‐driven vascular injury in vascular smooth muscle cells is mediated by metabolic ...

The ER/Golgi Protein FNDC3B Facilitates Climbing Fibre to Purkinje Cell Synapse Elimination in the Developing Mouse Cerebellum

European Journal of Neuroscience, Volume 63, Issue 2, January 2026.
We investigated the role of fibronectin type III domain containing 3B (FNDC3B) in climbing fiber (CF) to Purkinje cell (PC) synapse elimination during postnatal development of the mouse cerebellum. We performed PC‐specific deletion of FNDC3B by RNAi‐mediated knockdown or PC‐specific conditional knockout in mice and examined CF to PC synapse development

The Enigmatic Teratoma: Tracing Tissue Origins Through Methylation Profiling

Stem Cells International, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Purpose Mature cystic teratomas of the ovary can contain skin, hair, muscle, and bone and are usually found in women of reproductive age. Elucidating epigenomic aberrations in these teratomas may result in a better understanding of their stepwise developmental processes and molecular bases. Methods Here, we analyzed the methylation statuses of promoter

New findings in oligogenic inheritance of congenital hypogonadotropic hypogonadism

Archives of Medical Science, 2020
Introduction Congenital hypogonadotropic hypogonadism results from a dysfunction of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis, which is essential for the development and function of the reproductive system. It may be associated with anosmia, referred to as

Spatial Transcriptomics of Patients With Kaposi Sarcoma Identifies Mechanisms of Immune Evasion

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 97, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT To identify the cell types that are infected with KSHV and the immune interactions in Kaposi sarcoma (KS) lesions, we performed spatial transcriptomics with seven KS skin tumors. We used a single‐cell RNA‐sequencing reference data set from healthy skin donors with a method to conduct spatially informed cell‐type deconvolution for spatial ...

Spatial Transcriptomics Reveals Transcriptomic and Immune Microenvironment Reprogramming during Thyroid Carcinoma Dedifferentiation

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 44, November 27, 2025.
Spatial transcriptomic analysis of Anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC)‐differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) coexisting tumors reveals that coexisting DTC regions with ATC‐like genomic alterations undergo sequential transcriptomic reprogramming and immune microenvironment remodeling, ultimately evolving into a full ATC pathological phenotype.

Stage-specific functions of Semaphorin7A during adult hippocampal neurogenesis rely on distinct receptors

Nature Communications, 2017
The functions of semaphorins in the adult brain are poorly understood. Here the authors show that Sema7A carries out stage-specific functions in the adult hippocampus via differential receptor usage; in progenitor cells, Sema7A inhibits proliferation via
