Schulze J, Staecker H, Wedekind D, Lenarz T, Warnecke A (2022) Expression pattern of brain-derived neurotrophic factor and its associated receptors: Implications for exogenous neurotrophin application. Hear Res 413:108098. doi: 10.1016/j.heares.2020.108098 PMID: 33143996

Objective: To investigate the mechanisms of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in the inner ear, by analyzing the expression of mature BDNF (mBDNF), its proform proBDNF and their respective receptors the low affinity p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75NTR) and the neurotrophic receptor tyrosine kinase 2 (NTRK2).

Summary: Treatment with proBDNF is not toxic for spiral ganglion neuron (SGN) survival but simultaneously not protective. However, combined treatment of mBDNF and proBDNF maintained and perhaps slightly increased the protective effect of mBDNF.

Kim HS, Kim HY (2022) Hypertensive effects of transforming growth factor-β1 in vascular smooth muscles cells from spontaneously hypertensive rats are mediated by sulfatase 2. Cytokine 150:155754. doi: 10.1016/j.cyto.2021.155754 PMID: 34808537

Objective: To examine the role of extracellular sulfatases on TGF-β1-induced effects associated with the expression of mediators related to hypertension in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) from spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR).

Summary: The hypertensive effects of TGF-β1 through the AT1 R pathway were mainly dependent on Sulf2 activity in SHR VSMCs. Taken together, these results suggest that Sulf2, but not Sulf1, plays a major role in mediating the increased effects of TGF-β1 in hypertensive VSMCs.

Summary: Spaceflight affects SERCA function differently between the soleus and tibialis anterior.

Sci Transl Med 13(612):eabg3459. doi: 10.1126/scitranslmed.abg3459 PMID: 34550727

Objective: Hypothesized that enteric glia loss in the premature intestine could lead to dysmotility, exaggerated Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) signaling and necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) development.

Summary: TLR4-induced enteric glia loss leads to experimental NEC through Brain Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) loss, which can be treated with compound ‘J11.’

Objective: To evaluate the role and molecular mechanism of AT2R agonist CGP against Angiotensin II-induced astrocytic activation in primary astrocytes, and in a rat model of hypertension.

Summary: AT2R activation by CGP abrogated Ang II-induced astrocytic activation, by mitigating the ROS production, mitochondrial dysfunction, IκB-α degradation, NFκB nuclear translocation, and release of TNF-α in astrocytes.

Objective: To determine whether tracheal basal cells (BCs) from the dorso-ventral airways have intrinsic molecular and behavioural differences relevant to their in vivo function.

Summary: This study revealed the differences in the characteristics of BCs based on spatial distribution, and also indicated the role of epithelial-mesenchymal interactions in tissue homoeostasis in the trachea. The findings of this study suggest that careful observation is necessary in future research, as the influence of environment on the phenomenon should be considered.
