Objective: Adipose tissue remodeling plays a critical role in obesity-induced metabolic dysfunction, but the underlying molecular mechanisms remain incompletely understood. This study investigates the role of miR-10a-5p in adipose tissue inflammation and metabolic dysfunction induced by a high-fat diet (HFD).
Methods: Male miR-10a knockout (KO) mice were fed a HFD to induce obesity for up to 16 weeks.

Apoptosis plays prominent roles during organ development, maturation and homeostasis. In the retina, Bcl-2 family members function through the intrinsic cell death pathway with vital roles during vascular development and hyperoxia-mediated vessel obliteration during oxygen induced ischemic retinopathy (OIR). Bim, a BH3 only protein Bcl-2 family member, binds and activates Bax and/or Bak to facilitate apoptosis.

Gibel carp (Carassius auratus gibelio) is an important economically farmed fish in China. Chilodonella hexasticha parasitizes on the gills and fins of host fish, causing disruption to their normal respiration and movement, ultimately resulting in death of the fish. In this study, a combination of histopathological, immunohistochemical, transferase dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL), multi-omics, and molecular approaches were employed to identify the immune reaction and cell apoptosis in gill tissue in response to C.

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), a severe autoimmune disorder, is characterized by systemic inflammatory response, autoantibody accumulation and damage to organs. The dysregulation of double-negative (DN) T cells is considered as a crucial commander during SLE. Neddylation, a significant type of protein post-translational modification (PTM), has been well-proved to regulate T cell-mediated immune response.

Mitophagy, a form of selective autophagy, plays an essential role to maintain a population of healthy and functional mitochondria for normal cellular metabolism. Acting mainly as one of the B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2) family pro-apoptotic members, Bim (also known as BCL2L11) was identified to be a co-chaperone of Hsp70 to promote mitophagy in mammalian cells. Herein, with the help of a specific Hsp70/Bim disruptor and Om45-GFP processing assay, we illustrated that ectopic BimEL is able to promote mitophagy through Hsp70/Bim interaction in yeast, where Bax/Bak is absent.
