Endothelial BMP6 Drives Hemodynamic‐Dependent VSMCs Calcification in Carotid Atherosclerosis
The study demonstrates that endothelial cell (EC)‐derived BMP6 promotes the osteogenic differentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) through cell‐cell interactions. Additionally, the researchers preliminarily explore the driving effect of hemodynamic factors on BMP6‐induced calcification and reveal the regulatory role of KLF4 on BMP6.

Psychological stress activates the sympathetic–adrenal axis, elevating norepinephrine (NE) and suppressing reproductive hormones, thereby impairing male reproduction. Excess NE overactivates and desensitizes β‐adrenergic receptors (β‐ARs), triggering Sertoli cell ferroptosis and disrupting spermatogenesis.

Deoxynivalenol Exposure Leads to Abnormal Renal Tubular Autophagy Flow
DON exposure disrupts the initiation of renal autophagy by inhibiting the formation of autophagosomes, thereby impairing mitochondrial degradation. Damaged mitochondria increase oxidative stress, reduce ferroptosis resistance, and cause lysosomal Fe2⁺ accumulation, further disrupting autophagy.

Dual‐stimuli‐responsive CuFeTe2 nanosheets (CFT) induce cuproptosis/ferroptosis via TME‐responsive Fe2⁺/Cu2⁺ release and NIR‐II photothermal effects, amplifying ROS and depleting HSP70/ATP to trigger ICD and immune activation, while ensuring biocompatible renal clearance for TNBC therapy.

Disruption of NF‐κB‐Mediated Copper Homeostasis Sensitizes Breast Cancer to Cuproptosis
This study reveals a feedback mechanism regulating copper homeostasis, in which copper directly interacts with TAK1 to activate NF‐κB signaling, while NF‐κB transcriptionally suppresses copper transporter (CTR1) expression. These findings highlight a promising therapeutic strategy for breast cancer by combining NF‐κB inhibitors with copper chelators or
