TOP1MT rs2293925 is an enhancer‐active regulatory SNP that shapes mitochondrial R‐loop dynamics

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
This study shows how a common genetic variant of mitochondrial topoisomerase 1 (TOP1MT rs2293925) can influence mitochondrial gene regulation, DNA topology, and formation of noncanonical nucleic acid structures such as R‐loops. By linking this enhancer‐active variant to mitochondrial nucleic acid stress in cellular contexts relevant to amyotrophic ...

Taz/Tead1 Promotes Alternative Macrophage Activation and Kidney Fibrosis via Transcriptional Upregulation of Smad3

Journal of Immunology Research
Macrophage alternative activation is involved in kidney fibrosis. Previous researches have documented that the transcriptional regulators Yes-associated protein (Yap)/transcriptional coactivator with PDZ-binding motif (Taz) are linked to organ fibrosis ...

Understanding exosomes in diabetic wound healing

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Diabetic wounds signify a major complication of diabetes mellitus, characterized by chronic inflammation, compromised angiogenesis, and high risk of infection, amputation, and mortality. Contemporary therapies remain limited in efficacy and durability.

Understanding Exosomes in Hair Regeneration

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Alopecia is a prevalent condition correlated with significant psychosocial challenges, while contemporary treatments exhibit variable efficacy, require extended use, and may cause adverse effects. This review aimed to comprehensively assess exosome‐mediated interventions as a novel cell‐free regenerative approach for hair ...

Putting the brakes on muscle growth: Myostatin as regulator of disuse atrophy

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Skeletal muscle is a highly plastic tissue that rapidly adapts to changes in mechanical loading and metabolic activity. Periods of inactivity, including bed rest, limb immobilization or microgravity, induce a pronounced loss of muscle mass and function.

FGF23 promotes atrial fibrillation susceptibility through ETV1‐dependent sodium channel regulation and calcium handling abnormalities

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) is closely associated with atrial fibrillation (AF), yet whether it modulates sodium and calcium currents in atrial myocytes remains unclear. ETV1, a key transcription factor regulating atrial electrical conduction, might also be involved in FGF23‐mediated AF.

Computational modelling of cardiac fibroblast signalling reveals a key role for Ca2+ in driving atrial fibrillation‐associated fibrosis

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend A pre‐existing fibroblast signalling model was enhanced by integrating atrial‐specific components and reactions linked to atrial fibrosis and atrial fibrillation (AF). The analysis highlights the central role of Ca2⁺ signalling in driving profibrotic responses to AF‐relevant stimuli, angiotensin‐II and transforming growth factor ...

Born early, age fast: Consequences of premature birth on chronic disease and accelerated ageing

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend ELGANs are exposed to several postnatal pro‐oxidant stressors, including ambient and supplemental oxygen, mechanical ventilation, infections, hyperalimentation, excessive glucocorticoids and intermittent hypoxia. Since endogenous antioxidant defences are underdeveloped, this imbalance promotes oxidative stress and inflammation ...

Active Free Radical Cold Atmosphere Plasma Promotes Healing of Diabetes Foot Ulcer: Mechanism and Challenge

Diabetes/Metabolism Research and Reviews, Volume 42, Issue 6, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) have become an important cause of disability and death in patients with diabetes. Traditional therapies are prone to problems such as recurrence and drug resistance, which result in unsatisfactory healing effects for DFUs.
