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 ...

Photobiomodulation restores blood–brain barrier integrity after hypoxia via endothelial von Willebrand factor modulation in a humanised tricellular transwell model

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Photobiomodulation restores blood–brain barrier (BBB) integrity following hypoxic stress. A multicellular human BBB model comprising brain microvascular endothelial cells, astrocytes and pericytes was established in a transwell system and subjected to acute hypoxia.

Methyltransferase‐Like 14 Promotes the Angiogenesis of Hepatocellular Carcinoma via Targeting Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor A

Cancer Reports, Volume 9, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background N6‐methyladenosine (m6A) modification is a pivotal epitranscriptomic regulator implicated in tumor progression. As a core component of the m6A methyltransferase complex, METTL14 is known to suppress tumorigenesis; however, its specific role in tumor angiogenesis remains elusive. Given that Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor A (VEGFA)

Evidence for somatic selection of natural autoantibodies. [PDF]

, 1992
Natural autoantibodies are primarily immunoglobulin M (IgM) antibodies that bind to a variety of self-antigens, including self-IgG. Accounting for a large proportion of the early B cell repertoire, such polyspecific autoantibodies are speculated to ...

Human Papillomavirus: Update in Bridging Basic Science to Clinical and Public Health Innovations

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Human papillomavirus (HPV), a non‐enveloped, double‐strand DNA viral pathogen, is intricately linked with the onset of various cancers, including cervical cancer and head and neck cancers. The present paper delves into HPV's ancient recognition and significant milestones such as the discovery of its role in oncogenesis and the development of ...

Surface N‐Glycosylation Dictates MSC‐EV Uptake and CCR2‐Driven Monocyte Recruitment to Inflamed Endothelium Under Shear Flow

Journal of Extracellular Vesicles, Volume 15, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Mesenchymal stromal cell‐derived extracellular vesicles (MSC‐EV) hold promising potential for immunomodulation and tissue regeneration, especially for treating ischemia‐reperfusion injury (IRI). However, their therapeutic use is hindered by challenges in tissue targeting and incomplete understanding of their functional mechanisms.

Functional reassessment of extended splice region variants in MYO7A with hearing loss and Usher syndrome

The Journal of Pathology, Volume 269, Issue 2, Page 222-231, June 2026.
Abstract MYO7A is a causal gene, underlying Usher syndrome type 1B (USH1B) and both autosomal recessive (DFNB2) and dominant (DFNA11) non‐syndromic hearing loss. Despite the large number of reported MYO7A variants (over 2,200), variants located in an extended splice region remain difficult to interpret and are often classified as variants of uncertain ...

The Recycling Endosomal (Na+, K+)/H+ Exchanger NHE6/SLC9A6 Facilitates Signal Transduction by Shuttling Cyclin‐Dependent Kinase 5 to the Plasma Membrane

Acta Physiologica, Volume 242, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim The alkali cation/proton exchanger NHE6/SLC9A6 regulates luminal pH homeostasis and trafficking of recycling endosomes in most tissues, especially neurons. Loss‐of‐function mutations in NHE6 cause Christianson Syndrome, an X‐linked neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative disorder; however, the underlying molecular and cellular mechanisms ...

Streamlined Synthesis and Structure–Activity Relationship Analysis of 2‐Amidothiophene‐3‐Carboxamides Targeting Influenza Polymerase PA‐PB1 Heterodimerization

ChemMedChem, Volume 21, Issue 10, 27 May 2026.
Development of a three‐step synthesis and replacement of the cycloheptyl moiety in cycloheptathiophene‐3‐carboxamide derivatives revealed how thiophene C‐5 substitutions modulate PA–PB1 inhibition, antiviral potency, and water solubility. The phenyl analog 9 delivered sub‐µM potency across multiple IV strains, while the methyl analog 5 achieved the ...
