Proteomic analysis of human follicular fluid-derived exosomes reveals that insufficient folliculogenesis in aging women is associated with infertility.

Although the risk of female infertility increases with advancing age, the underlying mechanisms remain unknown. Exosomes in follicular fluid are suggested to regulate folliculogenesis and influence oocyte quality, potentially playing a critical role in age-related infertility. Elucidating their content could enhance the understanding of the molecular mechanisms associated with female aging-induced infertility.

Individuals with homozygous laminA/C p.R527C mutations manifest a severe form of Mandibuloacral dysplasia-(MAD) and exhibit overlapping progeroid symptoms, for which the underlying molecular pathology remains unknown. Herein, it is shown that MAD patients achieved inflammaging with different pro-inflammatory cytokines compared to progeria-(HGPS) patient.

Morphology-based deep learning enables accurate detection of senescence in mesenchymal stem cell cultures.

Background: Cell senescence is a sign of aging and plays a significant role in the pathogenesis of age-related disorders. For cell therapy, senescence may compromise the quality and efficacy of cells, posing potential safety risks. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are currently undergoing extensive research for cell therapy, thus necessitating the development of effective methods to evaluate senescence.

UNC93B1 facilitates the localization and signaling of TLR5M in Epinephelus coioides.

Toll-like receptor 5 (TLR5), serving as a sensor of bacterial flagellin, mediates the innate immune response to actively engage in the host's immune processes against pathogen invasion. However, the mechanism underlying TLR5-mediated immune response in fish remains unclear. Despite the presumed cell surface expression of TLR5 member form (TLR5M), its trafficking dynamics remain elusive.

Integrative Analysis of Machine Learning and Molecule Docking Simulations for Ischemic Stroke Diagnosis and Therapy.

Due to the narrow therapeutic window and high mortality of ischemic stroke, it is of great significance to investigate its diagnosis and therapy. We employed weighted gene coexpression network analysis (WGCNA) to ascertain gene modules related to stroke and used the maSigPro R package to seek the time-dependent genes in the progression of stroke. Three machine learning algorithms were further employed to identify the feature genes of stroke.

TLR5S negatively regulates the TLR5M-mediated NF-κB signaling pathway in Epinephelus coioides.

Nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB) pathway is a key mediator of inflammation response that plays a role in host defense for pathogen elimination, but excessive activation may lead to tissue damage or pathogen transmission. The negative regulation of NF-κB in lower vertebrates is largely unknown, hindering further understanding of immune signaling evolution. Here, we provided evidence that Epinephelus coioides soluble toll-like receptor 5 (TLR5S), a member of the TLR5 subfamily, has been newly identified as a negative regulator of NF-κB signaling.

Multi-omic analysis of mandibuloacral dysplasia type A patient iPSC-derived MSC senescence reveals miR-311 as a novel biomarker for MSC senescence.

Mandibuloacral dysplasia type A (MADA) is a rare genetic progeroid syndrome associated with lamin A/C (LMNA) mutations. Pathogenic mutations of LMNA result in nuclear structural abnormalities, mesenchymal tissue damage and progeria phenotypes. However, it remains elusive how LMNA mutations cause mesenchymal-derived cell senescence and disease development.

Stem Cell-Based Therapeutic Strategies for Premature Ovarian Insufficiency and Infertility: A Focus on Aging.

Reproductive aging is on the rise globally and inseparable from the entire aging process. An extreme form of reproductive aging is premature ovarian insufficiency (POI), which to date has mostly been of idiopathic etiology, thus hampering further clinical applications and associated with enormous socioeconomic and personal costs. In the field of reproduction, the important functional role of inflammation-induced ovarian deterioration and therapeutic strategies to prevent ovarian aging and increase its function are current research hotspots.

Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells Detection via Ensemble Yolo Network.

Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) have huge potential in regenerative medicine research and industrial applications. However, building automatic method without using cell staining technique for iPSCs identification is an important challenge. To improve the efficiency of producing iPSCs, we build an accurate and noninvasive iPSCs colonies detection method via ensemble Yolo network based on the self-collected bright-field microscopy images.

Quality evaluation of induced pluripotent stem cell colonies by fusing multi-source features.

Background And Objective: Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) have great potential as the basis of regenerative medicine. In this paper, we propose an automatic quality evaluation model based on multi-source feature ensemble learning to divide the iPSC colonies into three categories: good, medium and bad.

Methods: First, we obtained iPSCs samples using a Sendai virus reprogramming method.

23S rRNA from Vibrio parahaemolyticus regulates the innate immune response via recognition by TLR13 in orange-spotted grouper (Epinephelus coioides).

Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are major pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) that recognize multiple pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) through the leucine-rich repeat (LRR) domain and mount effective immune responses. Vibrio parahaemolyticus is the main pathogen that causes vibriosis in aquatic animals, yet the mechanisms of its recognition by innate immune system in teleost fish remain unknown. Here, the results reveal that TLR13 in orange-spotted grouper (Epinephelus coioides) (EcTLR13) recognizes a conserved 23S ribosomal RNA (23S rRNA) sequence in V.

MicroRNA-29b modulates the innate immune response by suppressing IFNγs production in orange-spotted grouper (Epinephelus coioides).

Interferon-γ (IFNγ), a type II interferon, is essential to host resistance against various infections. Unlike other vertebrates, fish have two types of IFNγs, IFNγ1 (also named IFNγ-rel) and IFNγ2. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) regulate multiple biological processes by suppressing mRNA translation or inducing mRNA degradation.

Unc93b1 is essential for cytokine activation of five PAMPs in the orange-spotted grouper (Epinephelus coioides).

Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are important innate immune receptors that recognize multiple pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and activate the immune responses to resist the invasion of pathogens. Many TLRs need assistance from trafficking chaperones to transport to the specific cell compartments and then are processed before they are activated. In this study, we identified an important trafficking chaperone, Unc-93 homolog B1 (unc93b1), from the Epinephelus coioides (orange-spotted grouper).
