We investigated the proteins of erythrocytes from stem cell transplantation patients and found decreased expression of band3 and C-terminal-truncated peroxiredoxin 2 (PRDX2) only during severe graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), using time-of-flight mass spectrometry (TOF-MS) analysis and Western blotting. During the same period, PRDX2 dimerization and calpain-1 activation were observed, indicating severe oxidative stress. We also found a putative cleavage site for calpain-1 in the C-terminal-truncated site of PRDX2. Decreased band3 expression impairs the plasticity and stability of erythrocytes, and C-terminal-truncated PRDX2 induces irreversible dysfunction of antioxidant activity. These effects may exacerbate microcirculation disorders and the progression of organ dysfunction.

Background: Androgenic anabolic steroids (AASs) are synthetic drugs structurally related to testosterone, with the ability to bind to androgen receptors. Their uncontrolled use by professional and recreational sportspeople is a widespread problem. AAS abuse is correlated with severe damage to the cardiovascular system, including changes in homeostasis and coagulation disorders.

Background: PRDX2 is significantly expressed in various cancers and is associated with the proliferation of tumor cells. Nonetheless, the precise mechanism of PRDX2 in tumor immunity remains incompletely understood. This study aims to investigate the impact of PRDX2, which is highly expressed in lung adenocarcinoma, on T cells in the tumor immune microenvironment, and its immune action target to promote the immune escape of lung cancer cells, to provide a theoretical basis for lung adenocarcinoma treatment with PRDX2 as the target.

Objective: The objective of this study was to explore the possibility of treating heart failure in rats by delivering mRNA of 24-dehydrocholesterol reductase (DHCR24) into the body through lipid nanoparticles (LNPs).
Methods: We established a heart failure rat model using doxorubicin. The experiment was divided into blank, model, mRNA stock solution cardiac injection, mRNA stock solution intravenous injection, LNP-mRNA stock solution cardiac injection, and LNP-mRNA stock solution intravenous injection groups.

Introduction: Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a complex condition characterized by metabolic dysfunction and myocardial lipotoxicity. The roles of PTEN-induced kinase 1 (PINK1) and peroxiredoxin-2 (Prdx2) in HFpEF pathogenesis remain unclear.
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the interaction between PINK1 and Prdx2 to mitigate cardiac diastolic dysfunction in HFpEF.
