Article Title: Tongfu-Xingshen Capsule ameliorates ischemic stroke by inhibiting pyroptosis-mediated neuroinflammation.
Article Snippet: Ethnopharmacological relevance: Ischemic stroke (IS) represents a highly prevalent acute cerebrovascular disorder in clinical practice, featured by ischemic-hypoxic brain damage secondary to inadequate cerebral perfusion.. This devastating condition is associated with substantial disability and recurrence rates, imposing a severe burden on patients’ survival and quality of life.. Tongfu-Xingshen Capsule (TXC), a conventional Chinese medicinal agent clinically indicated for intracerebral hemorrhage and IS management, exerts favorable effects in mitigating stroke-associated pneumonia and preserving the structural integrity of the blood-brain barrier.

Article Title: In vitro axotomy models regulated by ROCK inhibitor for studying neuroregeneration and growth cone morphology.
Article Snippet: Equal amounts of protein (20 μg) were separated by 10% sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel and transferred onto a polyvinylidene difluoride membrane (Millipore, Massachusetts, USA). .. After incubation with blocking buffer for 2 h at room temperature, the membrane was incubated with primary antibodies against SPRR1a (1:1,000, Invitrogen, PA5-110423), ATF3 (1:1,000, Beyotime, AF6240), c-JUN (1:1,000, Beyotime, AF1612) and GAP43 (1:1,000, Beyotime, AF0153), Rho A (1:1000, BOSTER, BM4479), ROCK2 (1:1,000, Jo urn al Pr e-p r o f Proteintech, 20248-1-AP) and beta-actin (1:1,000, Beyotime, AF2811) overnight at 4°C. ..

Article Title: Endothelial SMAD1-MCAM axis facilitates sunitinib resistance and progression of clear cell renal cell carcinoma via LAMB1-ITGB1 signaling.
Article Snippet: Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is characterized by high metastatic potential and frequent resistance to conventional therapies, highlighting the need for a deeper understanding of its tumor microenvironment.. Here, we integrated single-cell RNA sequencing and spatial transcriptomics from large ccRCC cohorts to map the cellular landscape of ccRCC.. We identified a distinct stromal cell subpopulation, Melanoma Cell Adhesion Molecule, MCAM endothelial cells (MCAM ECs), which spatially associates with EMT-like tumor cells and promotes disease progression.

(E) Body weight change, (F) adipose depot mass to body weight ratio, (G) oral glucose tolerance test, ∗ p < 0.05, and (H) total area under curve of (G) in 8- to 10-week-old male control ( n = 5 mice) and AdcaRK ( n = 6 mice) mice housed at 4 °C for 3 days. (I) Body weight of control, AdR2KO, and AdcaRK mice fed on a high-fat diet (HFD) for 19 weeks starting at 14 weeks of age ( n = 5 mice per group). ∗ p < 0.05 compared to week 1 in the same genotype. † p < 0.05 compared to control mice. p values were determined by two-tailed unpaired t tests (A to I). All data are presented as the mean ± SEM of at least three independent biological replicates.
