Antibody-mediated neutralisation of Gremlin-1 was ineffective in treating fibrosis in metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitits, likely due to low hepatic expression in a subset of myofibroblasts and redundant Gremlin-1 signalling.
The anti-cancer or lifespan extension properties of a novel genetically engineered hematopoietic blood system could be transferred horizontally in mice, which suggests a new direction of biomedical research for anti-aging/antidisease.

Stellate cell lactate transporter MCT1 significantly contributes to liver fibrosis through increased collagen 1 protein expression in vitro and in vivo.
A novel antibody recognizing receptor-binding region of MARV glycoprotein was developed and displays broad-spectrum neutralizing activity to filovirus species when NPC2 was fused to the N-terminus of the mAb.
