December 2016 This computational study developed a regulatory model linking key genes and miRNAs to cardiac senescence, validated by connecting 94% of these elements to existing cardiac aging research.
April 2026 in “International Journal of Molecular Sciences” This study reviews evidence that in keloid development, transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) drives fibroblast proliferation and fibrosis not only through the classical Smad-dependent pathway but also via equally important Smad-independent signaling cascades, suggesting these pathways as possible targets for more effective keloid therapies.
