Aims: Previous studies have demonstrated a significant upregulation of Integrin Beta 1 (ITGB1) in Telocytes. This study aims to explore the roles and underlying mechanisms of ITGB1 in inflammation and oxidative stress following Lipo-polysaccharide (LPS) administration in Telocytes.
Methods: We observed an increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, accompanied by a reduction in ITGB1 levels post-LPS treatment.
Results: Notably, inhibiting ROS synthesis markedly reduced LPS-induced ITGB1 expression. Additionally, ectopic ITGB1 expression mitigated LPS-induced inflammation and oxidative stress, evident through decreased levels of pro-inflammatory markers such as Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha (TNF-α), Interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, and Monocyte Chemoattractant Protein (MCP)-1. Depletion of endothelial Yes-Associated Protein 1 (YAP1) notably diminished the levels of inflammatory markers and ROS production. Furthermore, exosomes secreted by ITGB1-modified Telocytes promoted Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells (HUVECs) proliferation and inhibited apoptosis. In vivo experiments revealed that exosomes from ITGB1-modified Telocytes modulated functional and structural changes, as well as inflammatory responses in Acute Lung Injury (ALI).
Conclusion: These findings highlight the critical role of the YAP1/ROS axis in LPS-induced Telocyte injuries, underlining the therapeutic potential of targeting ITGB1 for mitigating inflammation and oxidative stress in these cells.

Background: Cows that develop metritis experience dysbiosis of their uterine microbiome, where opportunistic pathogens overtake uterine commensals. An effective immune response is critical for maintaining uterine health. Nonetheless, periparturient cows experience immune dysregulation, which seems to be intensified by prepartum over-condition.

Background: Polo-like kinase 2 (PLK2) is associated with cardiac fibrosis in patients with atrial fibrillation. However, the role of PLK2 in sepsis-induced cardiac injury has not been fully elucidated. We hypothesize that PLK2 may participate in the progression of sepsis-induced cardiac injury.

Brain microvascular endothelial cells are connected by tight junction (TJ) proteins and interacted by adhesion molecules, which participate in the selective permeability of the blood-brain barrier (BBB). The disruption of BBB is associated with the progression of cerebral diseases. Pterostilbene is a natural compound found in blueberries and grapes with a wide range of biological activities, including anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-diabetic effects.

Postpartum depression (PPD) profoundly impacts the mental and physical health of women globally and is an incurable psychological disorder. Traditional pharmacological treatments often have strong side effects and may adversely affect infant health through breastfeeding, underscoring the critical need for natural and gentle treatment strategies. Sugemule-7, a traditional Chinese medicine comprising multiple natural plant ingredients, represents a potentially safer and more effective alternative.

Cellular senescence, a complex biological process resulting in permanent cell-cycle arrest, is central to aging and age-related diseases. A key concept in understanding cellular senescence is the Hayflick Limit, which refers to the limited capacity of normal human cells to divide, after which they become senescent. Senescent cells (SC) accumulate with age, releasing pro-inflammatory and tissue-remodeling factors collectively known as the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP).
