To enhance their regenerative properties, ASCs can be chemically stimulated using various in vitro protocols. However, unsatisfactory results persist, partly due to the relatively costly long-term methods. Furthermore, current culturing techniques often rely on the use of xenogenic fetal bovine serum that can be immunogenic, limiting clinical translations. To facilitate clinical translation of ASCs-derived therapeutics, the effect of different stimulation protocols on human ASCs cultured in a xeno-free medium (PRIME-XV MSC Expansion XSFM) is investigated. The xeno-free medium was supplemented with stimulants (forskolin (FSK), basic fibroblast growth factor, platelet-derived growth factor-AA, neuregulin-1) in combinations or individually. Stimulation for 72 h in FSK alone, or together with the growth factors, enhanced the production of urokinase plasminogen activator (uPA), a serine protease involved in tissue remodeling processes. Conditioned medium derived from stimulated ASCs enhanced in vitro angiogenesis and endothelial cells migration. This study shows that pro-angiogenic responses in human ASCs can be enhanced with a defined short stimulation protocol using a xeno-free medium. The protocol, using readily available manufacturing cell therapy grade molecules, may boost the regenerative properties of ASCs secretome which could enhance their efficacy in clinical treatments.","PeriodicalId":7234,"journal":{"name":"Advanced biology","volume":" ","pages":"e00466"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144590226","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Microcalcifications (<50 µm) have been shown, in computational models, to affect the biomechanical stability of the cap. The current study aims to develop a tissue-engineered model of the atherosclerotic fibrous cap with microcalcifications produced by mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs). Human MSCs are seeded in fibrin gels and cultured for 2 weeks in medium supplemented with TGF-β1 to induce smooth muscle cell differentiation and collagenous matrix formation. Afterward, mineralizing medium stimulates microcalcification formation for an additional 4 weeks. Tissue-engineered structures are imaged after culture with second harmonic generation microscopy with a hydroxyapatite probe, showing collagenous matrix with microcalcifications. Mechanical characterization shows the effect of microcalcifications on global tissue mechanics, as the ultimate stress at rupture of the tissue is significantly lower compared to control tissues. The amount of calcification, determined by histological analysis, is correlated to the decrease in ultimate tensile stress, with a higher amount of microcalcification resulting in weakened mechanical properties. The developed tissue-engineered plaque cap model with biologically formed collagenous matrix and microcalcifications offers valuable insight into the impact of microcalcifications on biomechanical stability.","PeriodicalId":7234,"journal":{"name":"Advanced biology","volume":" ","pages":"e00106"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144590227","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

C-di-GMP is synthesized by diguanylate cyclase harboring a GGDEF domain and degraded by phosphodiesterase harboring either an EAL or an HD-GYP domain. However, the roles of PdeN, encoding a CSS-EAL domain, are uncharacterized. In this study, it is demonstrated that lacking pdeN significantly promotes biofilm formation and reduces the motility of the clinically isolated APEC O2 serotype strain DE17. In addition, macrocolony morphotypes showed that the ΔpdeN strain exhibits increasing production of curli fibers and cellulose, which is consistent with the results of RNA-seq and qPCR. Further exploration shows that lactose permease LacY and mannose permease subunit ManZ interact with PdeN. Infection experiments show that lacking pdeN significantly reduced the release of LDH in HD-11 cells and adhesion capacity to DF-1 cells. In conclusion, c-di-GMP metabolic gene pdeN involves biofilm formation and pathogenicity of APEC. Besides, it interacts with LacY and ManZ.

Central to kidney function is the glomerular filtration barrier (GFB), which selectively filters waste while retaining essential proteins. Traditional models, including animal studies and 2D cell cultures, fail to fully replicate the GFB's complexity, limiting CKD research. Recent developments in microphysiological systems (MPS), particularly microphysiological glomerular filtration barriers (MPGFB), provide more accurate in vitro models for studying kidney diseases and evaluating therapies. MPGFB systems use organ-on-chip technology to integrate podocytes and glomerular endothelial cells within confined microfluidic environments, closely mimicking GFB's dynamic in vivo conditions. This setup enables detailed permeability analysis, aiding in research on disease mechanisms and drug toxicity. Furthermore, using human-induced pluripotent stem cells in MPGFB platforms allows patient-specific studies, enhancing insights into genetic kidney disorders. This review first examines the GFB's structure and function, focusing on its cellular and extracellular matrix components. It then discusses biological and engineering approaches to MPGFB fabrication, covering materials, 3D design, and flow control. The review concludes with MPGFB applications in disease modeling and drug testing, and addresses improvements needed for refining MPGFB as a key tool in kidney disease research and treatment.","PeriodicalId":7234,"journal":{"name":"Advanced biology","volume":" ","pages":"e00108"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-07-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144574630","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is caused by mutations in the galactosylceramidase (GALC) gene, leading to the accumulation of psychosine, a neurotoxic metabolite. This study presents an optimized workflow for the production and characterization of recombinant murine GALC (rm-GALC) from HEK293T cells, aiming to improve the feasibility of enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) for KD. An affinity chromatography protocol is refined to purify His-tagged rm-GALC, followed by buffer exchange and concentration steps to produce a stable and active enzyme suitable for subsequent in vitro applications. The purified rm-GALC is characterized for enzymatic activity, purity, and stability using SDS-PAGE, immunoblotting, and dynamic light scattering (DLS). In vitro assays reveal dose-dependent enzymatic activity recovery in KD primary cells upon rm-GALC administration, with no adverse effects on cell viability up to the physiological GALC dose. Additionally, GALC treatment at the physiological dose restored autophagic function in KD cells, as shown by LC3 and p62 marker analyses, confirming its compatibility with lysosomal-autophagic pathways. Conversely, supra-physiological GALC administration resulted in decreased viability and autophagy impairment. Finally, the feasibility of loading GALC into a polymeric nanovector based on stabilized reverse micelles is investigated. These findings highlight the critical importance of precise GALC dose regulation in developing a safe and effective enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) strategy for Krabbe disease (KD), further supporting the potential of a nanovector-mediated ERT approach.","PeriodicalId":7234,"journal":{"name":"Advanced biology","volume":" ","pages":"e00147"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144537687","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study established a rat ARDS model using intranasal LPS instillation, administering interventions such as FMT, Treg cell depletion, and JAK inhibitors. Assessments included histopathological examination of lung and intestinal tissues, flow cytometry for Th17 and Treg cell proportions, qPCR and Western blot for gene and protein expression, ELISA for inflammatory cytokines, and correlation analysis using Spearman's method for cytokine-immune cell interactions. Results indicated that FMT and JAK inhibitors significantly reduce lung damage induced by LPS, reduced alveolar destruction and inflammation, restored Th17/Treg balance, and inhibited JAK/STAT pathway activity. Notably, FMT decreased pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-2, IL-6, IL-8, IL-17A, IL-23, TGF-β1) and increased anti-inflammatory cytokines (IL-10, IL-35) in serum. Spearman correlation analysis indicated that FMT restored immune balance by modulating the interactions between cytokines and immune cells.

Thus, it is important to study the biochemical mechanisms involved in aging to understand how to treat and prevent these health conditions. The discovery that calorie restriction (CR) promoted longevity in various organisms is a major breakthrough for aging research. Molecular studies of CR have revealed that it mediates its anti-aging effects by activating key signaling pathways, including the AMPK pathway. This pathway is important for regulating various processes, including energy homeostasis, metabolism, and proteostasis. Despite the advantages associated with CR, this practice can have detrimental effects, including decreased liver, body, and muscle mass. Additionally, CR is difficult to track and maintain, limiting its long-term potential. Interestingly, direct activation of the AMPK pathway offers a potential approach to increase longevity and quality of life without dietary restrictions. Remarkably, a recent discovery revealed that lithocholic acid (LCA), a metabolite from bile acid, could directly activate the AMPK pathway. Activation of the AMPK pathway by LCA leads to the beneficial effects of CR without the negative effects. These recent findings point to the possibility that supplementation of specific doses of LCA could offer a novel approach to induce anti-aging pathways that lead to increased longevity and improved quality of life.","PeriodicalId":7234,"journal":{"name":"Advanced biology","volume":" ","pages":"e00110"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144482869","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
