Abstract Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1α (PGC-1α) is a master transcriptional coactivator responsible for regulating cellular energy metabolism and mitochondrial biogenesis across high-energy tissues such as the heart, skeletal muscle, and brown adipose tissue. To orchestrate its regulatory functions, PGC-1α interacts with a diverse array of transcription factors s…
Abstract Pancreatic β-cell differentiation and regenerative capacity differ markedly between developmental stages, with the neonatal pancreas exhibiting high plasticity that enables ongoing progenitor- and ductal-derived β-cell formation, whereas the adult pancreas demonstrates limited neogenic potential. Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) promotes β-cell survival, proliferation, and differentiation…
Abstract The FDA’s approval of the Lumipulse G p-tau217/Aβ 1−42 plasma ratio enhances access to Alzheimer’s diagnostics but risks confusing convenience with biological accuracy. The assay is scalable and non-invasive, yet it relies on a ratio of two markers that are unstable and only partly specific to the disease, raising concerns about reproducibility and interpretation. The reported performanc…
Abstract Primary failure of eruption (PFE) is a rare autosomal disorder provoked by heterozygous mutations in the parathyroid hormone receptor 1 ( PTH1R ) gene. PTH1R is a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) which regulates intracellular signaling molecules like cAMP. By using CRISPR/Cas9, the pathogenic PTH1R variant, c.1050-3C>G, was introduced into the periodontal ligament (PDL-hTERT) cell li…
