The June issue of Research Spotlight highlights research advancements from scientists whom we have served.
Read about new studies outlining potential treatments to promote tissue repair and regeneration. For example, one study demonstrated the significance of EE for cardiac repair.
Scientists also investigated the promising roles of ROS-scavenging hydrogel, responsive Mn3O4 nanoplatform, and a novel 3D-printed porous bioactive ceramic scaffold for spinal cord injury, gastric cancer, and bone injury, respectively.
Other papers uncovered the molecular mechanisms of SIRT1, Neat1, cathepsin B/NLRP3, and FASN in different diseases and cancer.
Scroll down to learn more about these 10 research discoveries.

Journal: Science Advances
Macrophages play a vital role in cardiac repair following myocardial infarction (MI). An enriched environment (EE) is involved in the regulation of macrophage-related activities and disease progression; however, whether EE affects the phenotype and function of macrophages to improve postinfarction cardiac repair remains unknown...

Random-pattern skin flap necrosis limits its application in the clinic. It is still a challenge for plastic surgeons. Catalpol is an effective ingredient extracted from Rehmannia glutinosa, which is reported to promote angiogenesis and protect against ischemic cerebral disease. The aim of our experiment is to assess whether catalpol...

The bacterium Helicobacter pylori induces gastric inflammation and predisposes to cancer. H. pylori-infected epithelial cells secrete cytokines and chemokines and undergo DNA-damage. We show that the host cell’s mitochondrial apoptosis system contributes to cytokine secretion and DNA-damage in the absence of cell death. H. pylori...

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is increasingly identified as a crucial risk factor for progression to CKD. However, the factors governing AKI to CKD progression remain largely unknown. By high-throughput RNA sequencing, we found that Neat1_2, a transcript variant of Neat1, was upregulated in 40-min ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI), which...

Combined exposure of chronic stress and alumina nanoparticles (AlNPs) aggravates hippocampal injury, but the pathogenesis is unevaluated. This study aimed to investigate the effect and mechanism of co-exposure to chronic stress and AlNPs on hippocampal microglia pyroptosis. In this study, chronic restraint stress (CRS) alone caused...

3D-printed porous bioactive ceramic scaffolds have been widely used in bone defect repair. However, material implantation is often accompanied by a foreign body response (FBR), which may affect host tissue regeneration. The physical properties of biomaterials, including shape, pore size, and porosity, control the relevant immune...

Cervical cancer (CC) patients with lymph node metastasis (LNM) have a poor prognosis. Clarification of the detailed mechanisms underlying LNM may provide potential clinical therapeutic targets for CC patients with LNM. However, the molecular mechanism of LNM in CC is unclear. In the present study, we demonstrated that fatty acid...

Norepinephrine exerts powerful influences on the metabolic, neuroprotective and immunoregulatory functions of astrocytes. Until recently, all effects of norepinephrine were believed to be mediated by receptors localized exclusively to the plasma membrane. However, recent studies in cardiomyocytes have identified adrenergic receptors...
