    Abstract Aims: Stanniocalcin-2 (STC2) has recently been implicated in human muscle mass variability by genetic analysis. Biochemically, STC2 inhibits the proteolytic activity of the metalloproteinase PAPP-A, which promotes muscle growth by upregulating the insulin-like growth factor (IGF) axis. The aim was to examine if STC2 affects skeletal muscle mass and to assess how the IGF axis mediates muscle hypertrophy induced by functional overload.
    Methods: We compared muscle mass and muscle fiber morphology between Stc2
    Results: Stc2
    Conclusion: Here we provide evidence that STC2 is an inhibitor of muscle growth upregulated, along with other components of the IGF axis, during overload-induced muscle hypertrophy.

    Abstract Capacitation is a series of physiological, biochemical, and metabolic changes experienced by mammalian spermatozoa. These changes enable them to fertilize eggs. The capacitation prepares the spermatozoa to undergo the acrosomal reaction and hyperactivated motility. Several mechanisms that regulate capacitation are known, although they have not been fully disclosed; among them, reactive oxygen species (ROS) play an essential role in the normal development of capacitation. NADPH oxidases (NOXs) are a family of enzymes responsible for ROS production. Although their presence in mammalian sperm is known, little is known about their participation in sperm physiology. This work aimed to identify the NOXs related to the production of ROS in guinea pig and mouse spermatozoa and define their participation in capacitation, acrosomal reaction, and motility. Additionally, a mechanism for NOXs' activation during capacitation was established. The results show that guinea pig and mouse spermatozoa express NOX2 and NOX4, which initiate ROS production during capacitation. NOXs inhibition by VAS2870 led to an early increase in the capacitation and intracellular concentration of Ca

    Abstract One key feature of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is that its prevalence increases exponentially with age. DNA methylation clocks have become powerful biomarkers to detect accelerated aging in a variety of diseases and can help prognose outcomes in severe COPD. This study investigated which DNA methylation clock could best reflect airway epigenetic age when used in more accessible blood samples. Our analyses showed that out of six DNA methylation clocks investigated, DNAmGrimAge demonstrated the strongest correlation and the smallest difference between the airway epithelium and blood. Our findings suggests that blood DNAmGrimAge accurately reflects airway epigenetic age of individuals and that its elevation is highly associated with COPD.
