ABSTRACT Background Klinefelter syndrome (KS) is characterized by marked phenotypic heterogeneity that might be influenced by genetic modifiers, including androgen receptor (AR) repeat length (CAGn and GGCn). The clinical relevance of these repeat lengths in patients with KS before testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) remains unclear.

ABSTRACT Background Genetic variability within the follicle‐stimulating hormone (FSH)‐related genes might contribute to phenotypic heterogeneity in patients with Klinefelter syndrome (KS), yet its clinical impact on sperm retrieval remains unclear. Objectives To investigate the association between FSHB c.211 G > T and FSHR polymorphisms (c.2039 A > G ...

Dual acellular subnormothermic machine perfusion for enhanced uterus preservation in a swine model
In a porcine uterus transplantation model, subnormothermic machine perfusion reduced graft edema and better‐preserved post‐reperfusion contractility than static cold storage, highlighting its potential for uterus preservation, assessment, and future graft‐conditioning applications.

Non‐Alzheimer Aβ deposits in the human CNS: Implications with hypoxia and related conditions
An Aβ deposit in a non‐Alzheimer's brain from an individual who experienced hypoxia/energy failure. Abstract We recently reported the deposition of Aβ in the frontal cortex of individuals who died of acute coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19), or who did not have COVID‐19 but had respiratory distress, or infants with severe cardiac malformations.

Phloroglucinol inhibits human ureteral contractions via activation of cAMP‐PKA pathway
Abstract Background and Purpose Phloroglucinol is used to treat renal colic, especially when non‐steroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs are contraindicated. This study aimed to clarify its mechanism by examining effects on human ureteral contractility and underlying signalling pathways. Experimental Approach Urinary levels of neurokinin A (NKA), substance P

Abstract Background and Purpose Kininase I, comprising carboxypeptidase N (CPN) and carboxypeptidase M, regulates kinin activity and is up‐regulated during injury, inflammation and immune activation. Under these conditions, kininase I converts bradykinin and kallidin into des‐Arg kinins, primary endogenous agonists of the bradykinin B1 receptor (R ...

PCSK9 aggravates AAA by promoting ferroptosis in VSMCs. In the pathological AAA environment, PCSK9 upregulation triggers ferritinophagy‐dependent degradation of FTH1, leading to Fe2+ release, triggering lipid peroxidation and ferroptosis, exacerbating AAA.

Human embryonic stem cell‐derived Immunity‐and‐Matrix‐Regulatory Cells (IMRCs) effectively attenuate pulmonary fibrosis by secreting Matrix Metalloproteinase‐1 (MMP1), which directly degrades excess collagen I in the extracellular matrix. By directly degrading collagen I, IMRCs reverse ECM stiffness, suppress myofibroblast activation, and promote a ...
