Norepinephrine Induces Sertoli Cell Ferroptosis via Receptors Desensitization Causing Stress‐Related Male Reproductive Dysfunction

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
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.

Mesenchymal Stromal Cells Play an Analgesic Role Through a Npy2r Sensory Neuron‐Mediated Lung‐to‐Brain Axis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) are considered a promising alternative for neuropathic pain (NP) treatment, but underlying mechanisms remain elusive. Huang et al. illustrate that a Npy2r sensory neuron‐related lung–brain axis contributes to MSC analgesia.
