Genetic evidence that SMAD2 is not required for gonadal tumor development in inhibin-deficient mice
Background Inhibin is a tumor-suppressor and activin antagonist. Inhibin-deficient mice develop gonadal tumors and a cachexia wasting syndrome due to enhanced activin signaling.

Alternatively spliced variant of Smad2 lacking exon 3. Comparison with wild-type Smad2 and Smad3.
An alternatively spliced variant of Smad2 with a deletion of exon 3 (Smad2Deltaexon3) is found in various cell types. Here, we studied the function of Smad2Deltaexon3 and compared it with those of wild-type Smad2 containing exon 3 (Smad2(wt)) and Smad3.

ABSTRACT Objective With the global increase in aging populations, the prevalence of osteoporosis is rising. Current preventive and therapeutic strategies remain limited. The present study aimed to investigate the effects of hemp seed protein (HSP) and its hydrolysis‐derived bioactive peptides (HPH) on osteogenic differentiation and to elucidate their ...

The regulation of stem cell fate and its application in neural regeneration
Regulating stem cell fate is crucial for neural regeneration. This review summarizes key physical, biological, and chemical strategies and their applications in repairing nerve injuries, providing new insights for regenerative medicine. Abstract Regulating the fate of stem cells (SCs) is a key technical problem in the field of regenerative medicine and

ABSTRACT This study tested whether combined dapagliflozin (DAPA) and melatonin (Mel) therapy was superior to merely one for ameliorating the left ventricular (LV) fibrosis/remodeling and improving LV ejection fraction (LVEF) in rats after acute myocardial infarction (AMI). In vitro study demonstrated that DAPA treatment significantly suppressed the TGF‐
