Article Abstract
We aimed to identify serum exosomal microRNAs (miRNAs) associated with the transition from atrial fibrillation (AF) to sinus rhythm (SR) and investigate their potential as biomarkers for the early recurrence of AF within three months post-treatment. We collected blood samples from eight AF patients at Chang Gung Memorial Hospital in Taiwan both immediately before and within 14 days following rhythm control treatment. Exosomes were isolated from these samples, and small RNA sequencing was performed. Using DESeq2 analysis, we identified nine miRNAs (16-2-3p, 22-3p, 23a-3p, 23b-3p, 125a-5p, 328-3p, 423-5p, 504-5p, and 582-3p) associated with restoration to SR. Further analysis using the DIABLO model revealed a correlation between the decreased expression of miR-125a-5p and miR-328-3p and the early recurrence of AF. Furthermore, early recurrence is associated with a longer duration of AF, presumably indicating a more extensive state of underlying cardiac remodeling. In addition, the reads were mapped to mRNA sequences, leading to the identification of 14 mRNAs (, , , , , , , , , , , , , and ) associated with restoration to SR. Monitoring these serum exosomal miRNA and mRNA expression patterns may be beneficial for optimizing treatment outcomes in AF patients.

Rescue of ciliogenesis and hyperglutamylation mutant phenotype in AGBL5 cell model of retinitis pigmentosa.

Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) affects around 1 in 4000 individuals and represents approximately 25% of cases of vision loss in adults, through death of retinal rod and cone photoreceptor cells. It remains a largely untreatable disease, and research is needed to identify potential targets for therapy. Mutations in 94 different genes have been identified as causing RP, including AGBL5 which encodes the main deglutamylase that regulates and maintains functional levels of cilia tubulin glutamylation, which is essential to initiate ciliogenesis, maintain cilia stability and motility.

The stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is a difficulty in urology and current sub-urethral sling treatments are associated with inflamation and recurrence. In this study, we developed a novel tissue-engineered sling with myogenic induced adiposederived stem cells (MI-ADSCs) sheets induced by 5-Aza and combined with electrospun scaffolds of silk fibroin and poly(lactide-co-glycolide) (SF/PLGA) for the treatment of stress urinary incontinence. MI-ADSCs increased α-SMA, MyoD and Desmin the mRNA and protein expression.

A variety of stressors, including environmental insults, pathological conditions, and transition states, constantly challenge cells that, in turn, activate adaptive responses to maintain homeostasis. Mitochondria have pivotal roles in orchestrating these responses that influence not only cellular energy production but also broader physiological processes. Mitochondria contribute to stress adaptation through mechanisms including induction of the mitochondrial unfolded protein response (UPR) and the integrated stress response (ISR).

The global shortage of suitable donor kidneys is the primary challenge in kidney transplantation, and it is exacerbated by ageing donors with increased numbers of health issues. Improving organ assessment, preservation and conditioning could enhance organ utilization and patient outcomes. Hypothermic machine perfusion (HMP) is associated with better results than static cold storage by reducing delayed graft function and improving short-term graft survival, especially in kidneys recovered from marginal-quality donors.

Sleep is a complex behavior regulated by various brain cell types. However, the roles of brain-resident macrophages, including microglia and CNS-associated macrophages (CAMs), particularly those derived postnatally, in sleep regulation remain poorly understood. Here, we investigated the effects of resident (embryo-derived) and repopulated (postnatally derived) brain-resident macrophages on the regulation of vigilance states in mice.
