Diacerein Disrupts Testicular Homeostasis: The Essential Role of Basal Cytokines in Maintaining Sertoli Cell Integrity and the Immune Microenvironment

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pro‐inflammatory cytokines, TNF and IL‐1B, are essential for testicular homeostasis. Diacerein, an anti‐inflammatory drug, inhibits these cytokines, impairing M2 macrophages and Leydig cells (LCs). However, its impact on Sertoli cells (SCs) and M1 (CD68) macrophages remains unknown.

Single‐Cell Virtual Perturbation Screening Identifies STAT3 as a Key Regulator of Dentinogenesis

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
STAT3 promotes odontoblast differentiation in dental mesenchymal cells by transcriptionally regulating WNT2B via the canonical Wnt/β‐catenin signalling pathway. These findings elucidate a mechanism underlying dentine development. ABSTRACT Dentine formation constitutes a physiological process precisely regulated by signal transduction modules governing ...
