The epigenetic-metabolic axis of trained immunity: dual roles in disease pathogenesis and intervention
As early as 1931, bacillus Calmette–Guérin (BCG) vaccination was hypothesized to reduce neonatal mortality through nonspecific immune stimulation. The concept of trained immunity was formally proposed in the 21st century, and clinical ob...

Copper-induced suppression of the PPARα–FABP1 axis sensitizes hepatocytes to ferroptosis in Wilson disease
Wilson disease (WD) is characterized by hepatic copper accumulation and progressive liver injury, yet the mechanisms linking copper overload to hepatocellular damage remain incompletely understood. Here, we identify suppression of the PP...

Vascular smooth muscle-specific NLRP3 hyperactivation exacerbates arterial intimal hyperplasia in mice
Intimal hyperplasia is a major contributor to restenosis after vascular interventions and to atherosclerotic lesion progression, involving vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) inflammatory activation, phenotypic switching, and maladaptive ...

The orofacial cleft risk gene IRF6 is a target gene of SOX9 in cranial neural crest cells
Orofacial clefts represent the most prevalent congenital anomalies affecting the craniofacial region. They can be evoked by a disturbed development of either oral epithelium or cranial neural crest-derived mesenchyme, or by disruptions o...
