Astrocytic connexin43 phosphorylation contributes to seizure susceptibility after mild traumatic brain injury

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Astrocytic gap junctions formed by connexin43 (Cx43) help maintain brain homeostasis. After mild traumatic brain injury (TBI), total cortical Cx43 increases and redistributes toward a soluble, non‐junctional pool with elevated hemichannel activity and increased phosphorylation at serine 368 (pCx43S368).

Spironolactone treatment attenuates vascular dysfunction in type 2 diabetic mice by decreasing oxidative stress and restoring NO/GC signaling

Frontiers in Physiology, 2015
Type 2 diabetes (DM2) increases the risk of cardiovascular disease. Aldosterone, which has pro-oxidative and pro-inflammatory effects in the cardiovascular system, is positively regulated in DM2.

Preventive Effect of Mineralocorticoid Receptor Antagonists Against Proteinuria Induced by Atezolizumab Plus Bevacizumab Therapy in Hepatocellular Carcinoma: A Multicenter Retrospective Study

Hepatology Research, EarlyView.
Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists are known to reduce proteinuria in chronic kidney disease, but their effectiveness in preventing bevacizumab‐related proteinuria has not been well established. In the present multi‐institutional retrospective study, we found that these agents significantly delay the onset of moderate or higher grade proteinuria ...

Sodium zirconium cyclosilicate compared with potassium restriction for hyperkalemia management in type 2 diabetes: The SILVERSTAR trial

Journal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims/Introduction To demonstrate noninferiority of continued sodium zirconium cyclosilicate therapy versus a potassium‐restricted diet in achieving normokalemia at Visit 7 (Days 28–42) in individuals with type 2 diabetes and hyperkalemia, using a noninferiority margin of −10 percentage points (one‐sided α = 0.025).

Treatment Patterns in Pediatric Hidradenitis Suppurativa: Time to Treatment Initiation, Initial Treatment, and Time to Switching

Pediatric Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) causes significant morbidity in children. Treatment patterns across sex, race, and ethnicity in pediatric HS have not been thoroughly evaluated. We aim to characterize treatment patterns in pediatric HS, including (1) time to treatment initiation, (2) first prescribed HS treatment, and (3) time to ...

RAD51 and RAD51 paralog inhibition sensitizes nonreplicating quiescent keratinocytes to UV radiation

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
UV radiation and other compounds generate DNA adducts that block transcription and induce cell death if not removed by the nucleotide excision repair system. In this work, we used a small‐scale pharmacological screen to discover that inhibition of the recombinase RAD51 sensitized nonreplicating quiescent keratinocytes to both UVR and other agents that ...

Efficacy of spironolactone in treating hidradenitis suppurativa in women of childbearing age: a single-center retrospective analysis

International Journal of Women's Dermatology
Background:. Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic skin disease characterized by recurrent nodules that affect areas with a high density of apocrine sweat glands, such as the axillae and groin.

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 ...

The conducting airways before and after gender‐affirming hormone therapy in transgender individuals

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract On average, females have smaller airways than males. The largest discrepancy in airway size occurs during puberty, when endogenous sex hormone concentrations diverge between males and females. Transgender individuals often use gender‐affirming hormone therapy (GAHT) to align physical characteristics with gender identity.

Caenorhabditis elegans as an in vivo model system for human inherited primary arrhythmia syndromes

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Most genes involved in inherited primary arrhythmia syndromes (IPAS) are conserved in Caenorhabditis elegans, where genetic manipulation enables functional characterization of variants, identification of regulatory proteins, and in vivo drug testing.
