The epidemiology and pathogenesis of uterine fibroids
Abstract Uterine fibroids, or leiomyomas, are the most common benign tumors of the female reproductive tract, ultimately affecting a majority of women worldwide, primarily during their reproductive years. While their origin appears genetic, manifesting in monoclonal tumors, diverse features and mechanisms contribute to their growth and further ...

Abstract Corticosteroids are effective anti‐cancer agents for treating hematologic malignancies in children. However, avascular necrosis (AVN) is a common and debilitating adverse effect, leading to bone death and impacting long‐term quality of life. This study aimed to uncover the genetic factors contributing to corticosteroid‐induced AVN in a well ...

A personal 360° view of applications of ‘biomimetic’ molecular recognition
Abstract Molecular recognition between biological molecules has formed the basis for innumerable applications in biotechnology for the last seven decades or so. Techniques such as affinity chromatography, solid‐phase and aqueous two‐phase extraction, affinity precipitation, biomimetic catalytic systems, biosensors and molecular imprinting all exploit ...

Feasibility of Treating Eosinophilic Chronic Rhinosinusitis Using Short‐Chain Fatty Acids
Epithelial cell‐derived cytokines including thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) are important in the pathogenesis of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps. We demonstrate the inhibitory effect of TSLP production in airway epithelial cells and eosinophil survival by short‐chain fatty acids (SCFAs) as a potential new strategy to reduce nasal polyps ...

ABSTRACT Introduction Pediatric plastic bronchitis (PB) is a rare complication of surgically palliated congenital heart disease (CHD). Fibrin casts obstruct airways and can cause respiratory distress. There are no therapeutics approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration to treat PB, but inhaled tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) has been

The Roles of Fibrinolytic Factors in Bone Destruction Caused by Inflammation
Chronic inflammatory diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis, spondyloarthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, Crohn’s disease, periodontitis, and carcinoma metastasis frequently result in bone destruction.

ABSTRACT Epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a fundamental, dynamic cellular process involved in embryonic development, metastasis, organ fibrosis, and tissue regeneration. To define the molecular landscape of secreted midbody remnants (MBRs) to the EMT process, a proteome analysis of MBRs released from Madin–Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells and

Harnessing synthetic key receptor modulators, this study presents a breakthrough in Wnt/β‐catenin regulation. The FZD agonist RRP‐pbFn bypasses LRP5/6 to drive organoid expansion and tissue regeneration, while the LRP antagonist RRP‐Dkk1c eradicates tumors. These tools enable precise pathway control, advancing regenerative and cancer therapies.
