Review

[Advanced Biology] Investigators look into the interrelationship between COVID-19 and diabetes mellitus with the aim to provide mechanistic insights into the process by which SARS-CoV-2 infects the pancreas and mediates dysfunction and death of endocrine islets.

[International Journal Of Antimicrobial Agents] The authors review the most recent management strategies for Cytomegalovirus infection in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients.

[Nature Reviews molecular cell biology] The authors provide a contemporary view of the metabolic flexibility and functional plasticity of skeletal muscle in response to exercise.

[Nature Reviews Cardiology] The authors discuss the emerging concept of disturbed-flow-induced reprogramming of endothelial cells as a potential pro-atherogenic mechanism.

[Cancer Medicine] The authors focus on the role of chemokines in melanoma and possible therapeutic strategies to alter chemokine activation and subsequently inhibit the activation of signaling cascades that may promote metastasis.

[Cell Proliferation] Scientists provide evidence of the role of TGF-β and fibroblast growth factor (FGF) signaling pathways in the development of different skin layers, especially the disparate dermis of different body regions.
