Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy shows promise for various diseases. Our studies in humanized mice and nonhuman primates demonstrate that hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) modified with anti-HIV CAR achieve lifelong engraftment, providing functional antiviral CAR-T cells that reduce viral rebound after antiretroviral therapy (ART) withdrawal.
Lysyl hydroxylase 2 (LH2) is highly expressed in multiple tumor types and accelerates disease progression by hydroxylating lysine residues on fibrillar collagen telopeptides to generate stable collagen cross links in tumor stroma. Here, we show that a galactosylhydroxylysyl glucosyltransferase (GGT) domain on LH2-modified type-VI collagen (Col6) to promote lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) growth and metastasis.
Telocytes (TCs), a newly identified type of mesenchymal cell since 2010, possess substantial potential in maintaining tissue homeostasis, orchestrating organ development, and facilitating tissue regeneration. Their distribution in blood, the adventitia of blood vessels, and the intima implies a close association with vascular function. Ischemic heart disease (IHD), a significant challenge in cardiovascular disease, is characterized by the occlusion of major vessels, obstruction of collateral cir

AI is transforming clinical trials—accelerating drug discovery, optimizing patient recruitment, and improving data analysis. But its impact goes far beyond research. As AI-driven innovation reshapes the clinical trial process, it’s also influencing broader healthcare trends, from personalized medicine to patient outcomes. Join this new webinar featuring Simran Kaur for an insightful discussion on what all of this means for the future of healthcare!
Metabolic dysfunctionassociated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is a major cause of liver disease worldwide, and our understanding of its pathogenesis continues to evolve. MASLD progresses from steatosis to steatohepatitis, fibrosis, and cirrhosis, and this Review explores how the gut microbiome and their metabolites contribute to MASLD pathogenesis.
IntroductionDepression is a significant comorbidity linked to poor subjective and objective health outcomes in cardiac patients. The paucity of data necessitates further research to elucidate the pathophysiological connection between depression and cardiac diseases in the presence of N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP). Therefore, the current systematic review investigated the clinical significance of NT-proBNP as a predictive biomarker in cardiac patients with depressive sympto
Sleep disturbance is bidirectionally associated with an increased risk of Alzheimers disease and other tauopathies. While the sleep-wake cycle regulates interstitial and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) tau levels, the underlying mechanisms remain unknown. Understanding these mechanisms is crucial, given the evidence that tau pathology spreads through neuron-to-neuron transfer, involving the secretion and internalization of pathological tau forms.

Sleep disturbance is bidirectionally associated with an increased risk of Alzheimers disease and other tauopathies.

Understanding these mechanisms is crucial, given the evidence that tau pathology spreads through neuron-to-neuron transfer, involving the secretion and internalization of pathological tau forms.
Mitochondrial dysfunction fuels vascular inflammation and atherosclerosis. Mitochondrial calcium uptake 1 (MICU1) maintains mitochondrial Ca2+ homeostasis. However, the role of MICU1 in vascular inflammation and atherosclerosis remains unknown. Here, we report that endothelial MICU1 prevents vascular inflammation and atherosclerosis by maintaining mitochondrial homeostasis.
Neuroretinal degenerations including retinitis pigmentosa (RP) comprise a heterogeneous collection of pathogenic mutations that ultimately result in blindness. Despite recent advances in precision medicine, therapies for rarer mutations are hindered by burdensome developmental costs. To this end, Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) is an attractive therapeutic target to treat RP.
Nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC), the most common type of lung cancer, remains a leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have emerged as a promising therapy for NSCLC but only benefit a subset of patients. In this issue of the JCI, Jiao et al. revealed that acetyl-CoA acetyltransferase 1 (ACAT1) limited the efficacy of ICIs in NSCLC by impeding tertiary lymphoid structures (TLS) in the tumor microenvironment (TME).
Daniel Judge, MD, discusses data from a prespecified analysis of ATTRibute-CM examining the effects of acoramidis with and without concomitant tafamidis use.
Nucleoporin 98 (NUP98) fusion oncogenes are known to promote aggressive pediatric leukemia by disrupting chromatin structure and modulating the expression of homeobox (HOX) genes, yet the precise molecular events are unclear. In this issue of the JCI, K. Hamamoto et al. explore the mechanistic underpinnings of NUP98 fusiondriven pediatric leukemia, with a focus on aberrant activation of the Hoxb-associated long, noncoding RNA (lncRNA) HoxBlinc.
People with heart failure are often advised to limit their fluid intake. However, a large study led by Radboud University Medical Center now shows that this practice does not provide any health benefits. Researchers writing in Nature Medicine found that it is safe when patients with heart failure regulate their own fluid intake.
Nature Reviews Cardiology, Published online: 02 April 2025; doi:10.1038/s41569-025-01148-9 In this Review, Schuermans and Honigberg highlight the involvement of clonal haematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) in cardiovascular diseases, such as atherosclerosis and heart failure, and discuss the emerging role of CHIP as a potential prognostic marker and therapeutic target for these diseases.
The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index is recognized as an indicator of insulin resistance and is linked to cardiovascular disease (CVD) in patients with type 2 diabetes. However, its utility in patients with Ty.
DALLAS, April 1, 2025 A New York City-based physician scientist who explores ways to improve health by looking at the ways in which cells and molecules impact disease and an epidemiologist from Baltimore who has devoted her career to identifying ways.
Stroke, Ahead of Print. BACKGROUND:Lp(a) (lipoprotein[a]) is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease; however, its association with cerebrovascular disease is not as well established.METHODS:Data from a population-based cohort of Hispanics/Latinos included 16 333 individuals with baseline Lp(a) levels (nmol/L) and self-reported prevalent stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA).
Using intravascular imaging (IVI) to guide stent implantation during complex stenting procedures is safer and more effective for patients with severely calcified coronary artery disease than conventional angiography, the more commonly used technique.
A new study has for the first time tested the use of an artificial intelligencepowered eye scan in general practice clinics to screen patients for cardiovascular disease.
The goal of the phase 2 PROLONG-ANG3 trial was to assess the durability and efficacy of different doses of solbinsiran in reducing concentrations of atherogenic lipoproteins in adults with mixed dyslipidemia. Mixed dyslipidemia is characterized by elevated concentrations of circulating triglycerides and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol [LDL-C]).
