Piezo1 Upregulation in Monocyte‐Derived Macrophages Impairs Post‐Myocardial Infarction Cardiac Repair via Defective Efferocytosis and Enhanced Ferroptosis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reports early Piezo1 activation in bone marrow monocyte‐derived macrophages (MoMs) during myocardial infarction (MI), which governs the fate and function of recruited macrophages. The recruited MoMs with increased Piezo1 expression exhibit increased ferroptosis and defective efferocytosis, delayed clearance of dead cells and resolution of ...

Disrupting Lipid Raft Microdomains to Block Polyploid Giant Cancer Cell Budding and Enhance Radiotherapy Response

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Radiation induces polyploid giant cancer cells (PGCCs) that regenerate tumors through virus‐like budding. This process depends on a SNCG–FLOT2–CHMP4B signaling axis functioning in lipid raft microdomains. Disrupting these domains using statins or anti‐PCSK9 antibodies blocks PGCC budding, suppresses tumor repopulation, and enhances radiotherapy ...
