    A computational model predicts sex-specific responses to calcium channel blockers in mammalian mesenteric vascular smooth muscle

    Gonzalo Hernandez-Hernandez, Samantha C O'Dwyer ... Colleen E Clancy
    A computer model predicts different mechanisms of blood pressure regulation and effective hypertensive therapy for males and females, thereby serving as a foundational tool for improved treatment precision.

    Depletion of SMN protein in mesenchymal progenitors impairs the development of bone and neuromuscular junction in spinal muscular atrophy

    Sang-Hyeon Hann, Seon-Yong Kim ... Young-Yun Kong
    Fibro-adipogenic progenitors in skeletal muscle contribute to the neuromuscular pathogenesis of spinal muscular atrophy, and depletion of SMN in chondrocytes reduces local IGF sigaling in growth plate.

    Taste shaped the use of botanical drugs

    Marco Leonti, Joanna Baker ... Julie Hawkins
    Plant drugs used by ancient Graeco-Roman societies have tastes and flavours that predict how they were used therapeutically.

    Tmem263 deletion disrupts the GH/IGF-1 axis and causes dwarfism and impairs skeletal acquisition

    Dylan C Sarver, Jean Garcia-Diaz ... G William Wong
    Mice lacking Tmem263 are dwarfs, and this phenotype is associated with reduced hepatic growth hormone (GH) receptor expression, a deficit in GH-induced signaling, and low insulin-like growth factor 1 level.

    Resting-state alterations in behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia are related to the distribution of monoamine and GABA neurotransmitter systems

    Lisa Hahn, Simon B Eickhoff ... Matthias L Schroeter
    Local brain functional activity reductions in bvFTD follow the distribution of serotonergic, GABAergic, and norepinephrinergic neurotransmitter systems, indicating a selective vulnerability and providing novel insights into the underlying disease mechanisms.

    Proteomic analysis shows decreased type I fibers and ectopic fat accumulation in skeletal muscle from women with PCOS

    Elisabet Stener-Victorin, Gustaw Eriksson ... Anna Benrick
    Elevated levels of ectopic fat and a decreased number of oxidative insulin-sensitive type I muscle fibers in skeletal muscle could lead to insulin resistance in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.

    Iron chelation improves ineffective erythropoiesis and iron overload in myelodysplastic syndrome mice

    Wenbin An, Maria Feola ... Yelena Ginzburg
    Dysregulated erythroblast-specific iron trafficking and regulation of iron metabolism provides evidence of a novel potential therapeutic target to reverse ineffective erythropoiesis in MDS.
