Computational modelling of cardiac fibroblast signalling reveals a key role for Ca2+ in driving atrial fibrillation‐associated fibrosis

open access: yesThe 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 ...

Efficacy and Safety of Duodenal Stenting for Malignant Gastric Outlet Obstruction: Insights From a 15‐year Single‐Center Experience

open access: yesDEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives Endoscopic duodenal stent (DS) placement has become a primary palliative approach for malignant gastric outlet obstruction (MGOO), offering minimally invasive symptom relief. However, complications and risk factors for stent dysfunction and prognostic indicators of survival are not fully elucidated.

Fibroblast‐derived neuropilin 1 alleviates renal fibrosis progression

open access: yesThe Journal of Pathology, Volume 268, Issue 2, Page 127-134, February 2026.
Abstract Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a major global health challenge affecting over 10% of the adult population. A hallmark of CKD progression is the transdifferentiation of kidney fibroblasts into extracellular matrix‐producing myofibroblasts, a key mechanism involved in the decline of kidney function and the development of kidney failure ...

COX-2 activity transiently contributes to increased water and NaCl excretion in the polyuric phase after release of ureteral obstruction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
  Udgivelsesdato: 2007-MayRelease of bilateral ureteral obstruction (BUO) is associated with reduced expression of renal aquaporins (AQPs), polyuria, and impairment of urine-concentrating capacity. Recently, we demonstrated that 24 h of BUO is associated
