TRα1 mutant suppresses KLF9 to cause endometrial metaplasia with ectopic IL-33 expression leading to uterine fibrosis and infertility by Elijah Edmondson, Takahito Kimura, Eunmi Hwang, Minjun Kim, Andrew Warner, Yuelin Zhu, Li Zhao, Yanlin Yu, Xuguang Zhu, Maria Hernandez, Noemi Kedei, Sheue-yann Cheng

“…Further, we showed that this metaplastic endometrial mucosa was the source of ectopic IL-33, which was associated with increased T-cell infiltrates, destruction of glands, and endometrial fibrosis. Our studies provide new insights to understand uterine epithelial morphogenesis and how thyroid dysfunction could lead to female infertility.…”

Differential Effects of Angelicin Analogues on NF-κB Activity and IL-8 Gene Expression in Cystic Fibrosis IB3-1 Cells by Ilaria Lampronti, Maria Giulia Manzione, Gianni Sacchetti, Davide Ferrari, Susanna Spisani, Valentino Bezzerri, Alessia Finotti, Monica Borgatti, Maria Cristina Dechecchi, Giorgia Miolo, Giovanni Marzaro, Giulio Cabrini, Roberto Gambari, Adriana Chilin

“…Other analogues displayed higher activities; in particular, the most interesting compounds showing relevant anti-inflammatory effects were found to cause 56–83% reduction of IL-8 mRNA expression at low concentrations (1–10 μM), without changes in cell proliferation pattern, demonstrating their potential interest for a possible development of anti-inflammatory therapy of cystic fibrosis.…”

miRNAs in Extracellular Vesicles from iPS-Derived Cardiac Progenitor Cells Effectively Reduce Fibrosis and Promote Angiogenesis in Infarcted Heart by Wanling Xuan, Lei Wang, Meifeng Xu, Neal L. Weintraub, Muhammad Ashraf

“…These EV contain a distinct repertoire of biologically active miRNAs that promoted angiogenesis and proliferation of cardiomyocytes while ameliorating fibrosis in the infarcted heart. Amongst the highly enriched miRNAs, miR-373 was strongly antifibrotic, targeting 2 key fibrogenic genes, GDF-11 and ROCK-2. miR-373 mimic itself was highly efficacious in preventing scar formation in the infarcted myocardium. …”
