Cellotype-phenotype associations using 'organoid villages'
Trends Endocrinol Metab. 2024 Apr 3:S1043-2760(24)00063-8. doi: 10.1016/j.tem.2024.03.001. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTEn masse phenotyping technology, using massively mosaic donor-derived cells and organoids, can offer enriched insights for cellotype-phenotype association in a cell-type-specific regulatory context. This emerging approach will help to discover biomarkers, inform genetic-epigenetic interactions and identify personalized therapeutic targets, offering hope for precision medicine against highly heterogeneous metabolic diseases.PMID:38575442 | DOI:10.1016/j.tem.2024.03.001 (Source: Trends in Endocrinology and Metabolism: TEM)

A perspective on muscle phenotyping in musculoskeletal research
Trends Endocrinol Metab. 2024 Mar 28:S1043-2760(24)00018-3. doi: 10.1016/j.tem.2024.01.004. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMusculoskeletal research should synergistically investigate bone and muscle to inform approaches for maintaining mobility and to avoid bone fractures. The relationship between sarcopenia and osteoporosis, integrated in the term 'osteosarcopenia', is underscored by the close association shown between these two conditions in many studies, whereby one entity emerges as a predictor of the other. In a recent workshop of Working Group (WG) 2 of the EU Cooperation in Science and Technology (COST) Action 'Genom...

Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSteatotic liver, characterized by the accumulation of fat in the liver, poses significant health risks including metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and an elevated risk of primary liver cancer. Emerging evidence indicates a robust association between steatotic liver and increased susceptibility to extrahepatic primary cancers and their metastases. The deposition of fat induces dynamic changes in hepatic microenvironments, thereby fostering inflammation and immune responses ...

A unified model for regulating lipoprotein lipase activity
Trends Endocrinol Metab. 2024 Mar 23:S1043-2760(24)00045-6. doi: 10.1016/j.tem.2024.02.016. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe regulation of triglyceride (TG) tissue distribution, storage, and utilization, a fundamental process of energy homeostasis, critically depends on lipoprotein lipase (LPL). We review the intricate mechanisms by which LPL activity is regulated by angiopoietin-like proteins (ANGPTL3, 4, 8), apolipoproteins (APOA5, APOC3, APOC2), and the cAMP-responsive element-binding protein H (CREBH). ANGPTL8 functions as a molecular switch, through complex formation, activating ANGPTL3 while deactivating ANGPTL4 in ...

Circadian medicine improves cardiovascular care by aligning treatments with our body's daily rhythms and their underlying cellular circadian mechanisms. Time-based therapies, or chronotherapies, show special promise in clinical cardiology.
