Integrin and focal adhesion can regulate cytoskeleton distribution to govern actin-related force remodeling and play an important role in nuclear configuration and force-sensing mechanotransduction of stem cells. However, further exploration of the interaction between actinin complex and myosin, kinetics, and molecular mechanism of cytoskeleton structures to nucleate within the engineered stem cells is vague. An extensive comprehension of cell morphogenesis, force remodeling, and nuclear force-sensing mechanotransduction is essential to reveal the basic physical principles of cytoskeleton polymerization and force-related signaling delivery. Advanced microarrays are designed to determine heterogeneous cell morphology and cell adhesion behaviors in stem cells. The heterogeneity from the engineered microarrays is transferred into nuclei to regulate nuclear configuration and force-sensing mechanotransduction by the evaluation of Lamins, YAP, and BrdU expression. Tuning the activation of adhesion proteins and cytoskeleton nucleators to adjust heterogeneous cell mechanics may be the underlying mechanism to change nuclear force-sensing configuration in response to its physiological mechanotransduction in microarrayed stem cells.

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.

X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is a rare and progressive disease, due to inactivating mutations in the phosphate-regulating endopeptidase homolog X-linked (PHEX) gene. These pathogenic variants result in elevated circulating levels of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), responsible for the main clinical manifestations of XLH, such as hypophosphatemia, skeletal deformities, and mineralization defects. However, XLH also involves muscular disorders (muscle weakness, pain, reduced muscle density, peak strength, and power).

The global surge in the population of people 60 years and older, including that in China, challenges healthcare systems with rising age-related diseases. To address this demographic change, the Aging Biomarker Consortium (ABC) has launched the X-Age Project to develop a comprehensive aging evaluation system tailored to the Chinese population. Our goal is to identify robust biomarkers and construct composite aging clocks that capture biological age, defined as an individual's physiological and molecular state, across diverse Chinese cohorts.

Primary microcephaly, a rare congenital condition characterized by reduced brain size, occurs due to impaired neurogenesis during brain development. Through whole-exome sequencing, we identified compound heterozygous loss-of-function mutations in CENTRIN 3 (CETN3) in a 5-year-old patient with primary microcephaly. As CETN3 has not been previously linked to microcephaly, we investigated its potential function in neurodevelopment in human pluripotent stem cell-derived cerebral organoids.

Immune cells are increasingly recognized as nutrient sensors; however, their developmental role in regulating growth under homeostasis or dietary stress remains elusive. Here, we show that Drosophila larval macrophages, in response to excessive dietary sugar (HSD), reprogram their metabolic state by activating glycolysis, thereby enhancing TCA-cycle flux, and increasing lipogenesis-while concurrently maintaining a lipolytic state. Although this immune-metabolic configuration correlates with growth retardation under HSD, our genetic analyses reveal that enhanced lipogenesis supports growth, whereas glycolysis and lipolysis are growth-inhibitory.
