Fibroblast Growth Factor 23 Stimulates Cardiac Fibroblast Activity through Phospholipase C-Mediated Calcium Signaling

Ting-Wei Lee et al.

Summary: This study found that FGF-23 can promote the proliferation and migration abilities of cardiac fibroblasts, leading to excessive entry of Ca2+ and increased IP3 levels. In addition, FGF-23 can increase the expression levels of calcium release-activated calcium channel protein 1 and transient receptor potential canonical 1 channel. The study also found that FGF-23 regulates cardiac fibroblast activity by activating FGF receptor 1 and the phospholipase C/IP3 signaling pathway.

TGF-beta activates NLRP3 inflammasome by an autocrine production of TGF-beta in LX-2 human hepatic stellate cells

Hwansu Kang et al.

Summary: Inflammation contributes to liver disease, and inflammasome activation plays a major role in amplifying liver inflammation. This study investigated the involvement of transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) in inflammasome-mediated fibrosis in hepatic stellate cells. The results showed that TGF-beta increased the activation of NLRP3 inflammasome signaling and the expression of p-Smad2/3-NOX4, leading to increased ROS content and NLRP3 inflammasome activation. NEK7 and active caspase-1 expression were also elevated in TGF-beta-induced cells. Furthermore, TGF-beta secretion levels were significantly increased, and IL-1 beta receptor antagonist treatment inhibited its production. These findings suggest that TGF-beta may act as a danger signal to activate the NLRP3 inflammasome in an autocrine manner, and targeting the NLRP3 inflammasome could be a promising approach for treating TGF-beta-induced liver fibrosis.

Cardiac inducing colonies halt fibroblast activation and induce cardiac/endothelial cells to move and expand via paracrine signaling

Samiksha Mahapatra et al.

Summary: Myocardial fibrosis is a common event after myocardial infarction, leading to heart failure and sudden cardiac arrest. Recent studies have shown that cardiac-inducing colonies derived from human pluripotent stem cells can secrete paracrine factors that inhibit activation and excessive secretion of extracellular matrix proteins in cardiac fibroblasts, potentially helping to maintain a balance between fibrosis and tissue repair.

miR-181b targets semaphorin 3A to mediate TGF-β-induced endothelial-mesenchymal transition related to atrial fibrillation

Ying-Ju Lai et al.

Summary: This study reveals a mechanistic link between TGF-β-induced endothelial-mesenchymal transition (EndMT) and atrial fibrosis through the miR-181b/Sema3A/LIMK/p-cofilin signaling pathway, and suggests blocking miR-181b and increasing Sema3A as potential strategies for AF therapeutic intervention.

Pivotal Role of TGF-β/Smad Signaling in Cardiac Fibrosis: Non-coding RNAs as Effectual Players

Somayeh Saadat et al.

Summary: TGF-β induces cardiac fibrosis through activation of cytokines and growth factors, stimulating fibroblast proliferation and ECM protein production via canonical and non-canonical signaling pathways. Non-coding RNAs play crucial roles in regulating these processes, suggesting potential for new diagnostic and therapeutic approaches for cardiac disorders.

NLRP3 Inflammasome: A New Pharmacological Target for Reducing Testicular Damage Associated with Varicocele

Pietro Antonuccio et al.

Summary: In varicocele animals, lower testosterone levels, testes weight, NLRP3 inflammasome, IL-1 beta and caspase-1 increased gene expression were demonstrated, along with an increased number of apoptotic cells. PDRN alone significantly improved all considered parameters more than Se. The Se-PDRN association significantly improved all morphological parameters, significantly increased testosterone levels, and reduced NLRP3 inflammasome, caspase-1, and IL-1 beta expression, as well as TUNEL-positive cell numbers.

The Association of Myo-Inositol and Selenium Contrasts Cadmium-Induced Thyroid C Cell Hyperplasia and Hypertrophy in Mice

Salvatore Benvenga et al.

Summary: The combination of Myo-inositol (MI) and Seleno-L-methionine (Se) is effective in protecting mouse thyroid from cadmium-induced hyperplasia and hypertrophy of C cells. This combined treatment significantly improves all five indices related to thyroid health, surpassing the effects of MI or Se alone. Resveratrol also shows significant improvement in thyroid parameters, comparable to the effects of MI alone.

Caffeine Inhibits Choroidal Neovascularization Through Mitigation of Inflammatory and Angiogenesis Activities

Christine M. Sorenson et al.

Summary: Adenosine receptors (AR) are widely expressed in various tissues, including the retina and brain, and play a role in adenosine-mediated immune responses involved in neurodegenerative diseases. Caffeine, a commonly consumed AR antagonist, has known therapeutic effects on various diseases including neonatal sleep apnea, acute migraine, and neurodegenerative diseases. Recent studies have shown that AR antagonism with caffeine can protect against ischemic retinopathy and choroidal neovascularization, indicating a potential therapeutic target for ocular diseases.
