HES1 revitalizes the functionality of aged adipose-derived stem cells by inhibiting the transcription of STAT1.

Background: The effectiveness of adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) in therapy diminishes with age. It has been reported that transcription factors (TFs) play a crucial role in the aging and functionality of stem cells. Nevertheless, there is limited understanding regarding the involvement of TFs in the aging mechanism of ADSCs.

The landscape of RNA binding proteins in mammalian spermatogenesis.

Despite continuous expansion of the RNA binding protein (RBP) world, there is a lack of systematic understanding of RBPs in the mammalian testis, which harbors one of the most complex tissue transcriptomes. We adapted RNA interactome capture to mouse male germ cells, building an RBP atlas characterized by multiple layers of dynamics along spermatogenesis. Trapping of RNA-cross-linked peptides showed that the glutamic acid-arginine (ER) patch, a residue-coevolved polyampholytic element present in coiled coils, enhances RNA binding of its host RBPs.

Social risk to infant: The role of kin for maternal visual monitoring in Tibetan macaques.

Maternal monitoring of conspecifics is a crucial anti-predator strategy that also protects infants against risks within the social group. This study examines how maternal characteristics, infant characteristics, mother-infant distance, and the social environment affect maternal monitoring behaviors in free-ranging Tibetan macaques (). We observed 12 females with infants and analyzed their visual monitoring patterns.

Consistent Individual Differences Drive Collective Movements in a Tibetan Macaque Group.

Collective movement has emerged as a key area of interest in animal behavior. While individual differences are often viewed as a potential threat to group cohesion, growing evidence suggests that these differences can actually influence an animal's behavior as an initiator or follower during collective movements, thereby driving the group's movement and decision-making processes. To resolve the divergence, we asked how personality can affect the dynamics of collective movements in one group of free-ranging Tibetan macaques () in Huangshan, China.

The Rejuvenation and Functional Restoration of Aged Adipose Stem Cells by DUXAP10 Knockdown via the Regulation of the miR-214-3p/RASSF5 Axis.

Adipose stem cell (ASC)-based therapies provide an encouraging option for tissue repair and regeneration. However, the function of these cells declines with aging, which limits their clinical transformation. Recent studies have outlined the involvement of long non-coding RNAs in stem cell aging.

HDAC3 promotes Sertoli cell maturation and maintains the blood-testis barrier dynamics.

Germ cell development depends on the capacity of somatic Sertoli cells to undergo differentiation into a mature state and establish a germ cell-specific blood-testis barrier (BTB). The BTB structure confers an immunological barrier for meiotic and postmeiotic germ cells, and its dynamic permeability facilitates a transient movement of preleptotene spermatocytes through BTB to enter meiosis. However, the regulatory factors involved in Sertoli cell maturation and how BTB dynamics coordinate germ cell development remain unclear.

MiR-145-5p overexpression rejuvenates aged adipose stem cells and accelerates wound healing.

Knockdown of long noncoding RNA SAN rejuvenates aged adipose-derived stem cells via miR-143-3p/ADD3 axis.

Background: Senescent adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) exhibit reduced therapeutic efficacy during wound healing. Transcriptional regulation factors including long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) reportedly have essential roles in stem cell aging. However, the mechanisms of which lncRNAs influence mesenchymal stem cell aging and how it works need further investigation.

GRB10 is a novel factor associated with gastric cancer proliferation and prognosis.

GRB10 and its family members GRB7 and GRB14 were important adaptor proteins. They regulated many cellular functions by interacting with various tyrosine kinase receptors and other phosphorus-containing amino acid proteins. More and more studies have shown that the abnormal expression of GRB10 is closely related to the occurrence and development of cancer.

Here, we performed protein profiling and circRNA sequencing of sural nerves in patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy and controls.

Construction and analysis of a lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA competing endogenous RNA network from inflamed and normal synovial tissues after anterior cruciate ligament and/or meniscus injuries.

Despite ample evidence demonstrating that anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and meniscus tears are associated with posttraumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA) development, the contributing factors remain unknown. Synovial inflammation has recently been recognized as a pivotal factor in the pathogenesis of OA. However, there is a lack of data on synovial profiles after ACL or meniscus injuries, which may contribute to PTOA.

Exosomes from Adipose Stem Cells Promote Diabetic Wound Healing through the eHSP90/LRP1/AKT Axis.

Oxidative damage is a critical cause of diabetic wounds. Exosomes from various stem cells could promote wound repair. Here, we investigated the potential mechanism by which exosomes from adipose-derived stem cells (ADSC-EXOs) promote diabetic wound healing through the modulation of oxidative stress.

RNA binding protein RBM46 regulates mitotic-to-meiotic transition in spermatogenesis.

Meiosis entry during spermatogenesis requires reprogramming from mitotic to meiotic gene expression profiles. Transcriptional regulation has been extensively studied in meiosis entry, but gain of function for master transcription factors is insufficient to down-regulate mitotic genes. RNA helicase YTHDC2 and its partner MEIOC emerge as essential posttranscriptional regulators of meiotic entry.
