A disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs 1 (ADAMTS1) plays crucial roles in various biological processes, including myogenesis, by modulating the neurogenic locus notch homolog protein 1 (NOTCH1) signaling pathway. However, the mechanisms through which ADAMTS1 regulates myogenesis remain unclear. In this study, we generated recombinant ADAMTS1 mutants and determined their effects on muscle cell differentiation, focusing on the regulation of NOTCH1 signaling. Treatment of C2C12 cells with recombinant ADAMTS1 protein enhanced muscle cell differentiation. Meanwhile, ADAM10 treatment inhibited muscle differentiation through the activation of NOTCH1 cleavage. Recombinant ADAMTS1 reversed ADAM10-induced muscle cell atrophy by suppressing NOTCH1 activation and downregulating its target gene. Recombinant ADAMTS1 also alleviated dexamethasoneinduced muscle atrophy in a mouse model. In summary, our findings suggest that recombinant ADAMTS1 promotes muscle regeneration by suppressing NOTCH1 and highlight the potential of recombinant ADAMTS1 proteins in the treatment of muscle wasting disease.

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a highly prevalent joint disease, affecting millions of people worldwide and characterized by degradation of articular cartilage, subchondral bone remodeling and low-grade inflammation, leading to pain, stiffness and disability. Cartilage Oligomeric Matrix Protein (COMP) is a major structural component of cartilage and its degradation has been proposed as a marker of OA severity/progression. Several proteases cleave COMP in vitro, however, it is unclear which of these COMPase activities is prevalent in an osteoarthritic joint.

Study Question: Does medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) exposure in progestin-primed ovarian stimulation (PPOS) cycles cause molecular perturbations in the steroidogenic function and gonadotropin responsiveness of the granulosa cells?
Summary Answer: PPOS cycles are identical to traditional GnRH antagonist cycles not only for clinical IVF characteristics but also for gonadotropin receptor expression, response to gonadotropins, and steroidogenic function at the molecular level.
What Is Known Already: PPOS is increasingly used as an alternative to GnRH antagonists due to the inhibitory effect of progesterone on LH release by reducing GnRH pulsatility at the hypothalamic level. Although a growing body of evidence from clinical studies did not indicate significant differences between PPOS and antagonist protocols for IVF cycle characteristics and obstetrical outcomes, it is still unknown whether exposure of the antral follicle cohort to progesterone or its synthetic derivatives during ovarian stimulation causes any subtle molecular aberrations in terms of steroidogenesis and gonadotropin responsiveness.
Fibrillin-1 is an extracellular matrix protein that assembles into microfibrils which provide critical functions in large blood vessels and other tissues. Mutations in the fibrillin-1 gene are associated with cardiovascular, ocular, and skeletal abnormalities in Marfan syndrome. Here, we reveal that fibrillin-1 is critical for angiogenesis which is compromised by a typical Marfan mutation.

Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease and a leading cause of mortality. It is characterized by arterial wall plaques that contain high levels of cholesterol and other lipids and activated leukocytes covered by a fibrous cap of extracellular matrix (ECM). The ECM undergoes remodelling during atherogenesis, with increased expression of aggrecan, a proteoglycan that binds low-density-lipoproteins (LDL).
