Lung Pericytes: Molecular Mechanisms, Signaling Pathways, and Roles in Pulmonary Diseases
Central role of pericytes across major pulmonary diseases. Conceptual wheel diagram illustrating the central role of lung pericytes across diverse pulmonary disease states. A pericyte positioned at the center expresses canonical markers, including PDGFRβ, CD146, and NG2, and connects radially to five major disease contexts.

Major depressive disorder (MDD) and treatment‐resistant depression (TRD) remain leading causes of disability, providing the impetus for receptor‐level treatment strategies beyond monoamine reuptake. The serotonin 5‐HT2B receptor (5‐HT2BR) is uniquely positioned at the interface of central‐antidepressant mechanisms and peripheral cardiac risks.

ITGA5/integrin α5β1 promotes PDAC progression by integrating fibronectin‐dependent adhesion, hypoxia‐associated ECM remodelling, pancreatic stellate cell/cancer‐associated fibroblast activation, desmoplasia and tumour‒stroma crosstalk. These processes contribute to impaired drug delivery and therapeutic resistance.

Interferon‐induced transmembrane (IFITM) function in cancer is set by four contextual coordinates, not by family membership. Acute interferon input drives major histocompatibility complex class I (MHC‐I)‐linked immunogenicity; chronic input drives programmed death‐ligand 1 (PD‐L1)‐coupled resistance.

• ADAMTS4 is induced primarily in cardiac fibroblasts during sepsis. • ADAMTS4 cleaves TSP1 at the 236–246 aa functional region. • TSP1 cleavage activates TGF‐β/Smad and NF‐κB signalling in fibroblasts. • Targeting ADAMTS4 reduces fibroblast activation and cardiac fibrosis.
