|
|
| Researchers performed RNA-seq and reduced representation bisulfite sequencing to profile the landscapes of bisphenol-induced cardiotoxicity and to determine the key roles of DNA methylation in the transcription. [Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety] |
|
|
|
| Scientists investigated the effects of the kisspeptin receptor antagonist peptide-234 on the development of uremic cardiomyopathy. [Scientific Reports] |
|
|
|
| Researchers investigated the effects of repeated exposure to witness social defeat stress on cardiomyocyte contractile function and intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis in young adult wild-type Groningen female rats. [Physiology & Behavior] |
| |
|
|
| The authors investigated the differences in SSC lineage tree and differentiation potential in neonatal and adult Tet1+/+ and Tet1-/- mice, with and without injury and upon osteoarthritis induction and progression. [Arthritis & Rheumatology] |
|
|
|
| Scientists explored the role of the endocannabinoid system during muscle toxicity induced by simvastatin. [Cell Death & Disease] |
|
|
|
| Investigators used skeletal muscle tissues from five patients with ryanodine receptor 1 (RYR1)-related congenital myopathy and compared those with five controls and five patients with RYR1-related rhabdomyolysis/myalgia. [Acta Physiologica] |
|
|
|
| Skeletal muscle satellite cells (SMSCs) were generated with stable knockdown and overexpression of circLRRFIP1, and the results showed that circLRRFIP1 exerted a stimulatory effect on the proliferation and differentiation of SMSCs. [Poultry Science] |
|
|
|
| | Researchers engineered a tubular decellularized extracellular matrix with an intact internal layer and bidirectional aligned microchannels in the tubular wall, which was realized by the subcutaneous implantation of a template, followed by the removal of the template, and decellularization. [Advanced Healthcare Materials] |
|
|
|
| Investigators showed that lurasidone inhibited the vascular voltage-gated K+ channels of rabbit coronary arterial smooth muscle cells in a dose-dependent manner with an IC50 of 1.88 ± 0.21 μM and a Hill coefficient of 0.98 ± 0.09. [European Journal of Pharmacology] |
|
|
|
| Scientists investigated the potential effect of Nemopilema nomurai jellyfish venom on cell migration, proliferation, and differentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells. [Toxicon] |
|
|
|
| Pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells were incubated with different concentrations of GW501516 under the hypoxic condition. The proliferation was determined by a CCK-8 assay. [Current Medical Science] |
| |
|
|
|
| Skeletal muscle and adipose tissues are secretory organs that release secretory factors including cytokines and exosomes. These factors mediate muscle–adipose crosstalk to regulate systemic metabolism via paracrine and endocrine pathways. [Trends In Endocrinology And Metabolism] |
|
|
|
| The authors summarize fibro-adipogenic progenitors’ role in fibrosis in terms of their activation, heterogeneity, contributions to fibrotic degeneration, and role across musculoskeletal diseases. [American Journal Of Physiology-Cell Physiology] |

|
| Curi Bio announced two recent SBIR grants worth $4.4 million from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to support its pioneering work on implementing human models to advance the discovery of the next generation of medicines. [Curi Bio] |
