This study examined PSAP expression in the mouse pituitary gland, which is one of the principal sources of circulating hormones innervated by dopaminergic neurons. In situ hybridization showed that PSAP mRNA expression was high in the intermediate lobe (IL), whereas the expression was relatively low and sparse in the anterior (AL) and posterior lobes (PL). Immunohistochemical analyses showed that PSAP immunoreactivity was detected as fine, granular structures in the AL and IL. PSAP immunoreactivity was also observed in glial cells and the Herring bodies of the PL.

This review consolidates current insights into the roles of EVs derived from motor neurons, muscle fibers, and Schwann cells in regulating NMJ integrity. In healthy states, EVs deliver trophic factors, structural proteins, and regulatory RNAs that promote the clustering of acetylcholine receptors, presynaptic stability, and axonal growth. Motor neuron EVs carry Wnt7a, synaptophysin, and PGC-1α, while muscle-derived EVs deliver miR-206, agrin, and caveolin-3. Schwann cell EVs contribute neurotrophic support via NRG1 and GDNF. In contrast, diseased or aged NMJs exhibit EV cargo dysregulation, marked by the presence of misfolded proteins (e.g., SOD1, TDP-43), pro-inflammatory cytokines, and reduced regenerative miRNAs. These changes contribute to synaptic dismantling, neuroinflammation, and impaired repair in conditions such as ALS, SMA, MG, and sarcopenia. The review highlights the bidirectional nature of EV signalling and its dynamic regulation by neuronal activity and stress. Emerging therapeutic strategies include engineering EVs to deliver protective cargo, targeting them to NMJ components, and designing biomaterial-based depots for sustained release. Furthermore, EV signatures in blood and muscle hold promise as non-invasive biomarkers for early detection of NMJ decline in ALS, SMA, MG, and sarcopenia. Despite promising preclinical data, challenges remain in EV characterization, targeting specificity, and clinical translation. This review underscores a paradigm shift: EVs are not passive byproducts but active messengers of neuromuscular health and disease, with realistic applications in diagnostics, regenerative therapy, and personalized medicine.</p>","PeriodicalId":9712,"journal":{"name":"Cell and Tissue Research","volume":"403 2","pages":"20"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2026-02-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146178083","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}

Our aim was to investigate potential toxic effects of a novel antibiotic-loaded hydrogel on osteogenic cells and its antibacterial effect against staphylococci. A covalently cross-linked hyaluronic acid (HA)-based hydrogel was loaded with increasing concentrations of cefuroxime and vancomycin and their release was examined by UV spectrometry. Primary human (HoBs), mouse (MoBs) osteoblasts, or SaoS-2 cells were either exposed to the drug-loaded hydrogel or to antibiotics alone, followed by assessment of cell metabolism and proliferation. Antibacterial effects were evaluated against Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and Staphylococcus epidermidis (S. epidermidis). Increasing concentrations of antibiotics did not affect cell metabolism in any osteogenic cell type, whereas cell proliferation remained unaltered in MoBs, was significantly reduced in SaoS-2, and was stimulated in HoBs. Cultures of MoBs and HoBs tolerated higher concentrations of vancomycin than SaoS-2. Antibiotic-loaded hydrogels did not exert toxic effects on HoBs. After 24 h, 16.8% of vancomycin and 70.8% of cefuroxime were released from the hydrogel. Cefuroxime-loaded hydrogels significantly inhibited growth of S. aureus but not of S. epidermidis, while vancomycin-loaded hydrogel had scarce effects on S. epidermidis. Loading HA-based hydrogel with antibiotics does not harm osteoblasts at clinically relevant concentrations but inhibits bacterial growth. Higher loading of vancomycin may be required due to its slow release while cefuroxime is released more rapidly.

Among the transcription factors expressed in taste buds, Prox1, a homeobox transcription factor, is the only factor expressed in all taste bud cells including precursor cells.

EdU pulse-labeling experiments revealed a biphasic decline in EdU(+) taste bud cells in Prox1 cKO mice, indicating that Prox1 knockout increases the fraction of cells that die shortly after differentiating into taste bud cells. The surviving cells still exhibited a shorter lifespan than that of wild-type mice.

In adult mice, the highest protein levels were found in the brain followed by the kidney, whereas lower levels were detected in the pancreas, spleen, liver, lung, heart, and skeletal muscle. Dynamic changes in Rab24 levels were observed during early postnatal development, with a sharp increase in the brain at postnatal day 14, after which the level remained high into adulthood. In the heart, skeletal muscle, pancreas and liver, higher Rab24 levels were observed during the first two postnatal weeks, after which the levels dropped and stayed low until adulthood. The age-dependent changes suggest age- and organ-specific regulation of Rab24 protein levels and possible organ-specific roles for Rab24 in development and maturation. Immunohistochemistry of the brain revealed that Rab24 was mostly present in neuronal cells in 1-month-old and older mice. Also, epithelial cells in several tissues showed high Rab24 levels. These results suggest possible roles for Rab24 in neuronal and epithelial maintenance. We further analysed immunohistochemical staining for RAB24 in human cancers and normal tissues. RAB24 staining in cancers of the breast and skin was higher than in the corresponding normal tissues, while it was reduced in cancers of the digestive system and the urinary tract.
