Open AccessTet2 Controls the Responses of β cells to Inflammation in Autoimmune Diabetes
β cells may participate and contribute to their own demise during Type 1 diabetes (T1D). Here we report a role of their expression of Tet2 in regulating immune killing. Tet2 is induced in murine and human β ce...

Open AccessEnhanced astrocyte responses are driven by a genetic risk allele associated with multiple sclerosis
Epigenetic annotation studies of genetic risk variants for multiple sclerosis (MS) implicate dysfunctional lymphocytes in MS susceptibility; however, the role of central nervous system (CNS) cells remains uncl...

Activated β-catenin in Foxp3+ regulatory T cells links inflammatory environments to autoimmunity
Foxp3+ regulatory T cells (Treg cells) are the central component of peripheral immune tolerance. Whereas a dysregulated Treg cytokine signature has been observed in autoimmune diseases, the regulatory mechanisms ...

Open AccessCardiomyocyte gene programs encoding morphological and functional signatures in cardiac hypertrophy and failure
Pressure overload induces a transition from cardiac hypertrophy to heart failure, but its underlying mechanisms remain elusive. Here we reconstruct a trajectory of cardiomyocyte remodeling and clarify distinct...

Open AccessDNA single-strand break-induced DNA damage response causes heart failure
The DNA damage response (DDR) plays a pivotal role in maintaining genome integrity. DNA damage and DDR activation are observed in the failing heart, however, the type of DNA damage and its role in the pathogen...

Open AccessActivation of endothelial β-catenin signaling induces heart failure
Activation of β-catenin-dependent canonical Wnt signaling in endothelial cells plays a key role in angiogenesis during development and ischemic diseases, however, other roles of Wnt/β-catenin signaling in endo...

Open AccessAngiotensin II receptor blockade promotes repair of skeletal muscle through down-regulation of aging-promoting C1q expression
Disruption of angiotensin II type 1 (AT1) receptor prolonged life span in mice. Since aging-related decline in skeletal muscle function was retarded in Atgr1a−/− mice, we examined the role of AT1 receptor in musc...

Open AccessComplement C1q-induced activation of β-catenin signalling causes hypertensive arterial remodelling
Hypertension induces structural remodelling of arteries, which leads to arteriosclerosis and end-organ damage. Hyperplasia of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) and infiltration of immune cells are the hallm...
