Structure, Mechanics, and Mechanobiology of Fibrocartilage Pericellular Matrix Mediated by Type V Collagen

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study defines the structure, mechanics, and mechanobiology of the fibrocartilage pericellular matrix (PCM) using the murine meniscus, showing how collagen V deficiency alters PCM properties and disrupts cell mechanosensitive signaling. Findings emphasize the critical role of PCM in fibrocartilage mechanobiology and suggest targeting it can enhance

The Non‐Coding Regulatory Variant rs2863002 at chr11p11.2 Increases Neuroblastoma Risk by Affecting HSD17B12 Expression and Lipid Metabolism

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The SNP rs2863002 at the 11p11.2 locus, identified through GWAS, is associated with an increased risk of neuroblastoma. The rs2863002‐C allele impairs the binding of the transcription factor GATA3, resulting in upregulation of the HSD17B12 gene.

PP2Acα Deficiency in Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells Accelerates Aortic Aneurysm and Dissection by Regulating KLF4 Phosphorylation and Ubiquitination

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs)‐specific deficiency of PP2Acα exacerbates aortic aneurysm and dissection (AAD) by promoting phenotypic switching through AKT1‐mediated phosphorylation and stabilization of Kruppel‐like factor 4 (KLF4). Reduced PP2Acα enhances KLF4 ubiquitination resistance, suppressing VSMC contractile genes and accelerating aortic ...

The Evolutionary Trajectory and Prognostic Value of GITR+ Tregs Reprogramed by Tumor‐Intrinsic PD‐1/c‐MET Signaling in Pancreatic Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), tumor‐intrinsic PD‐1 signaling activates the MET pathway, leading to the establishment of an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME). This MET‐driven signaling cascade promotes the selective accumulation of GITR+ regulatory T cells (Tregs), a highly immunosuppressive subset.

STAT6 Activation Exacerbates Ferroptosis in Airway Epithelium by Inhibiting PRKN‐Mediated Mitophagy in Pulmonary Fibrosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study uncovers STAT6‐driven pulmonary fibrosis (PF) via suppression of PRKN‐mediated airway epithelial mitophagy, triggering mitochondrial dysfunction and ferroptosis. Rifabutin is identified as a potent STAT6 inhibitor that effectively reverses fibrotic progression. These findings reveal the STAT6‐PRKN axis as a pathogenic regulator and provide a

Long Term High‐Salt Diet Induces Cognitive Impairments via Down‐Regulating SHANK1

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The study identifies a novel mechanistic link between long‐term HS diet and cognitive impairment, wherein PKA/CREB axis inactivation leads to SHANK1 reduction, synaptic damage, and cognitive deficits. Abstract High‐salt (HS) diet is an established risk factor for cognitive impairment, but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear.

Dopamine D1 Receptor Contributes to Glucocorticoid‐Associated Osteonecrosis of Femoral Head Protection Through the ATF3/CHOP Axis to Inhibit Osteoblastic Apoptosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work identifies a novel mechanism by which dopamine D1 receptor (DRD1) contributes to the pathogenesis of glucocorticoid (GC)‐associated osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) through the regulation of osteoblastic apoptosis, indicating that DRD1 serves as a critical mediator of the crosstalk between the nervous and skeletal systems.

A Machine‐Learning Approach Identifies Rejuvenating Interventions in the Human Brain

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Rising life expectancy increases the incidence of age‐related neurodegeneration. Reverting brain aging through effective rejuvenation strategies constitutes a promising strategy to counteract these disorders and restore brain function. This study uses a brain‐specific transcriptional aging clock to screen over 43 000 perturbation profiles, identifying ...
