1. Causal effects of gut microbiota on functional gastrointestinal disorders: a bidirectional Mendelian randomization study.
PMID:日期:2026-01-01Emerging evidence suggests that gut microbiota is associated with functional gastrointestinal disorders (FGIDs). However, findings regarding microbial alterations in FGIDs have been inconsistent across observational studies, and the direction and causality of these associations remain unclear. We conducted a bidirectional two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) study to investigate potential causal associations between gut microbiota and two common FGIDs, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and functional dyspepsia (FD). Genome-wide association study (GWAS) summary statistics of gut microbiota, IBS, and FD were obtained from public databases and applied to our MR analysis. The inverse-variance-weighted method was used as the primary analysis, with weighted median and complementary sensitivity analyses used to assess the consistency and robustness of the findings. Higher genetically predicted abundances of (OR: 0.741, 95% CI: 0.570 to 0.963, = 0.025) and (OR: 0.684, 95% CI: 0.524 to 0.893, = 0.005) were associated with a lower risk of IBS. (OR: 1.368, 95% CI: 1.086 to 1.722, = 0.008) correlated to a high risk of FD while and (OR: 0.649, 95% CI: 0.471 to 0.893, = 0.008) were protective for FD. In the reverse MR analysis, genetically predicted IBS risk was associated with lower abundances of and , whereas no robust reverse associations were observed for FD. These findings identify several microbial taxa as candidates for further mechanistic and clinical validation rather than established risk factors or therapeutic targets. Further experimental research to investigate the underlying mechanisms is warranted.

2. Maternal high-fat diet and risk of cardiovascular disease in offspring: a review of mechanisms, controversies, and interventions.
PMID:日期:2026-01-01A high-fat diet (HFD) is a well-established risk factor for coronary artery disease (CAD). Accumulating evidence indicates that maternal nutritional status before and during pregnancy critically influences long-term cardiovascular outcomes in offspring. This review systematically synthesizes current mechanistic, epidemiological, and clinical evidence regarding the impact of HFD on CAD while also examining its effects on broader cardiovascular phenotypes that are integral to CAD pathogenesis, such as endothelial dysfunction, cardiac remodeling, and metabolic derangements. A particular focus is placed on the potential effects of maternal pre-pregnancy HFD exposure on offspring CAD risk in adulthood. Existing studies suggest that HFD induces coronary injury primarily through metabolic dysregulation, endothelial dysfunction, and epigenetic reprogramming. Notably, maternal exposure to HFD during the perinatal period may predispose offspring to coronary artery disease via these mechanisms. Conversely, appropriate maternal nutritional interventions during pregnancy have shown promise in mitigating these adverse effects, although their long-term efficacy and underlying molecular mechanisms remain to be fully elucidated. Future research should prioritize large-scale prospective cohort studies with extended follow-up to determine the optimal timing, mechanisms, and efficacy of dietary interventions. Such evidence would provide a scientific foundation for developing preventive and therapeutic strategies aimed at reducing cardiovascular disease risk from the earliest developmental stages.

3. Extracellular vesicles for abdominal aortic aneurysm: mechanisms, therapeutic potential, and translational challenges.
PMID:日期:2026-01-01Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a progressive and potentially fatal vascular disease for which no effective pharmacological therapy is currently available. While surgical repair remains the only definitive treatment for advanced aneurysms, patients with small AAAs are mainly managed by surveillance, highlighting the need for disease-modifying strategies. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have emerged as promising cell-free therapeutic tools because of their biocompatibility, ability to transfer bioactive cargo, and capacity to regulate multiple pathological processes involved in AAA progression. This review summarizes recent advances in EV-based therapies for AAA, focusing on mesenchymal stromal cell-derived EVs, immune cell-derived EVs, and engineered EV platforms. Preclinical studies suggest that therapeutic EVs can attenuate aneurysm formation by suppressing macrophage-driven inflammation, regulating macrophage polarization, inhibiting neutrophil extracellular trap-associated injury, protecting vascular smooth muscle cells from senescence, ferroptosis, apoptosis, and mitochondrial dysfunction, and limiting extracellular matrix degradation. Engineered EVs, including cargo-enriched, peptide-targeted, magnetically guided, chemotaxis-enabled, and biomaterial-assisted systems, may further improve lesion targeting, vascular retention, and therapeutic potency. However, EV-based AAA therapy remains at an early preclinical stage. Key barriers include unclear biodistribution and clearance, insufficient evidence of lesion-specific target engagement, heterogeneous EV isolation and characterization methods, uncertain dosing strategies, and the need for standardized potency, safety, manufacturing, and regulatory frameworks. Overall, EVs offer a biologically rational platform for non-surgical AAA therapy, but clinical translation requires rigorous standardization and robust evidence linking EV delivery to vascular repair.

4. The interaction between oxidative stress and Schwann cells.
4. 氧化应激与雪旺细胞之间的相互作用PMID:日期:2026-01-01After peripheral nerve injury (PNI), a moderate increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels can promote the proliferation and differentiation of Schwann cells (SCs) and participate in signal transduction. However, excessive ROS can trigger oxidative stress, and its harmful effects can overshadow the beneficial ones, such as inducing apoptosis, activating inflammation, disrupting environmental stability, and severely hindering neural processes. Therefore, if the damage caused by oxidative stress to SCs can be effectively alleviated, it will provide a new approach for the precise regeneration between peripheral nerves and target organs, thereby reducing the complications of PNI. With the advancements in materials science and neural tissue engineering, functional and precisely designed neural scaffolds and conduits have emerged as highly promising therapeutic strategies. This article focuses on revealing the interaction between SCs and oxidative stress during nerve injury, as well as the innovative tissue engineering technologies and new paradigms for damage repair that have emerged based on this interaction. It aims to provide effective new methods for addressing temporary or permanent functional impairments of PNI/peripheral neuropathies.

5. Altered serum interleukin-4 and monocyte chemoattractant protein-3 levels are associated with generalized anxiety disorder: a case-control study.
PMID:日期:2026-01-01Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) is a long-term mental health condition often associated with immune system dysregulation. While pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines are known to influence neuroinflammation, their specific roles in GAD remain less understood. This study investigates the relationship between serum levels of IL-4 and MCP-3 and GAD in a Bangladeshi population. This case-control study included 44 patients with GAD and 44 healthy controls (HCs). Participants were examined using the GAD-7 scale. Serum IL-4 and MCP-3 levels were measured using ELISA. Data were analyzed using t-tests, Spearman's correlation, and Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve analysis to assess diagnostic performance. GAD patients had significantly lower serum IL-4 levels (11.82 ± 10.91 pg/mL) and higher MCP-3 levels (57.80 ± 19.85 pg/mL) compared to HCs (IL-4: 24.51 ± 15.36 pg/mL; MCP-3: 34.01 ± 15.75 pg/mL; p < 0.001). IL-4 levels showed a significant negative correlation with GAD-7 scores (r = -0.496, p < 0.001), while MCP-3 showed a positive correlation (r = 0.544, p < 0.001). ROC analysis indicated that MCP-3 had higher diagnostic accuracy (AUC = 0.848, sensitivity = 87.6%, specificity = 84.3%) compared to IL-4 (AUC = 0.782, sensitivity = 80.2%, specificity = 78.5%). Moreover, decreased IL-4 and elevated MCP-3 levels were found to be significantly associated with GAD severity, suggesting an immune imbalance. These cytokines may serve as promising diagnostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets for GAD. Further longitudinal studies are recommended to investigate this causal relationship and its underlying mechanisms.

6. XPA confers ability of endonucleases to act processively and to incise damaged nucleosomal DNA.
PMID:日期:2026-01-01Repair of damaged DNA is a complex process, particularly when it is compacted into nucleosomes. There are a number of genetic disorders with deficiencies in DNA repair. Knowledge of the genes and proteins involved in these repair deficiencies is critical in developing an understanding of the molecular mechanisms utilized by proteins in the DNA repair pathways. One of these genetic disorders is xeroderma pigmentosum (XP), which is defective in nucleotide excision repair (NER). Patients in XP complementation group A (XP-A) are among the most severely affected with the lowest levels of DNA repair. The XPA protein, which is defective in these patients, plays a number of roles in the DNA repair process. One particularly important role proposed is acting as a processivity factor enabling endonucleases (XPF and XPG) and the XPB/TFIIH translocase to localize to damage sites using a processive mechanism of action. Another proposed role is in interacting with chromatin-remodeling proteins so as to enhance accessibility of lesions in nucleosomal DNA to endonucleolytic incision and other DNA repair activities. In XP-A cells, the XPA protein is proposed to be defective in ability to act as a processivity factor; endonucleases localize damage sites by a distributive mechanism and are also defective in incision of damaged nucleosomal DNA. This defect is corrected by recombinant normal human XPA. Mutations in exons 3 and 5 in the DNA binding domain of the gene lead to loss of ability of XPA to act as a processivity factor. The mutation in exon 5 was found in two XP-A patients with severe XP. These studies emphasize the importance of correlating specific mutations in an XP gene and the resulting defect in a particular repair protein with the clinical severity of XP and could lead to development of novel therapeutic approaches for this disorder.

7. The value of serum exosomal miRNA signature profiles for the early diagnosis of feline infectious peritonitis.
PMID:日期:2026-01-01Feline Infectious Peritonitis (FIP) is a highly lethal disease in cats, and early differential diagnosis remains a significant clinical challenge. In this study, we analyzed differences in serum exosomal miRNA expression between FIP-affected cats and healthy control cats via high-throughput sequencing and identified five significantly differentially expressed miRNAs (miR-21-5p, miR-155-5p, miR-200c-3p, miR-486-5p, and miR-423-5p). A combined diagnostic model was constructed based on three key miRNAs (miR-21-5p, miR-155-5p, and miR-423-5p). ROC curve analysis showed that a combined model of these three key miRNAs had an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.93, with a sensitivity and specificity of 88.6% and 91.2%, respectively. These results indicate that the serum exosomal miRNA signature could be used as a novel biomarker for the early diagnosis of FIP, providing a non-invasive diagnostic tool in clinical practice.

8. The role and mechanism of neutrophils in oncolytic virus therapy.
8. 中性粒细胞在溶瘤病毒治疗中的作用和机制PMID:日期:2026-01-01Oncolytic viruses (OVs) are a class of viruses capable of specifically infecting and killing tumor cells. They exert antitumor effects through direct lysis of tumor cells, activation of the immune system, and disruption of tumor vasculature. Neutrophils, which originate from the bone marrow, are the most abundant leukocytes in peripheral blood and the immune system and play a dual regulatory role in oncolytic virotherapy. In different TME, neutrophils can polarize into two phenotypes: N1 and N2. N1 neutrophils, owing to their chemotaxis and tumor-homing capabilities, can serve as delivery vehicles for OVs, enhance the therapeutic efficacy of oncolytic virotherapy, and activate host immune responses. In contrast, N2 neutrophils impair the efficacy of OVs through their antiviral activity and immunosuppressive functions. Therefore, an in-depth understanding of the mechanisms underlying the role of neutrophils in oncolytic virotherapy is of great significance for optimizing OV-based therapies and improving their clinical application outcomes.

10. Causal association between clonal hematopoiesis indeterminate potential and cancer: a Mendelian randomization study.
PMID:日期:2026-01-01Clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) causes the expansion of mutated hematopoietic stem cells and produces immunophenotypically altered leukocytes, which induce a tumor-promoting inflammatory condition. However, the causal effect of CHIP on cancer remains unclear. We assessed the relationship of genetically predicted CHIP with the risk of 18 cancer types involving 612,576 cases using two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR). Genetic instruments for overall and sub-types of CHIP were obtained from the a large-scale genome-wide association study using independent (r < 0.001) SNPs at genome-wide significance (p < 5.0 × 10). Summary statistics for 18 cancers were obtained from the FinnGen, MVP, PLCO study, and large consortia. Inverse-variance weighted random-effects models were used as the primary method for estimating causal effects. Findings from independent datasets were combined using the fixed-effect model and Bonferroni corrections were applied for multiple testing. We found genetic predicted overall and DNMT3A CHIP was significantly associated with an increased risk of thyroid cancer, lung cancer, kidney cancer, brain cancer, basal cell carcinoma, and malignant melanoma after corrections. In addition, we found the causal estimate of CHIP varied across histological sub-types of cancer. Sensitivity analyses confirmed that these findings were robust. Strong associations were found between genetic predicted CHIP and an increased risk of a broad range of cancers, highlighting the importance of timely screening for CHIP in cancer early detection and prevention.
