|
| Investigators examined the effects of vitamin D deficiency and supplementation on whole-body energy expenditure and muscle mitochondrial function in old rats, old mice, and human subjects. [Communications Biology] |

|
| The impact of Huntingtin (HTT) deficiency was studied in human skeletal muscle cell lines and in a mouse model with inducible and muscle-specific HTT deletion. [Journal of General Physiology] |
|
|
|
| Scientists determined to what extent PCM1 was a specific marker of myonuclei in vitro and in vivo. [American Journal of Physiology-Cell Physiology] |

|
|
| To determine the mechanisms of aortic medial amyloid formation, investigators explored the impact of vascular smooth muscle cell senescence, extracellular vesicle secretion, and extracellular matrix remodeling on medin accumulation. [Aging Cell] |

|
|
| Researchers generated proof that plasma-derived exosomes confer pulmonary hypertension by delivering lipoprotein receptor-1 (LOX-1) into pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells. [Biochemical Pharmacology] |

|
|
|
| Investigators focus on phenotypic characteristics, molecular profile, the functional role of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) phenotype landscape, and the molecular mechanism regulating VSMCs phenotype switching. [Cell Communication and Signaling] |
