Anti-inflammatory and pro-proliferative effects of fasudil in human trisomy 21 neural progenitor cells.
(PubMed, bioRxiv)
- "The Rho-associated coiled-coil kinase (ROCK) inhibitor fasudil increased proliferation of T21 NPCs, reduced expression of inflammatory pathway genes in T21 NPCs, and reduced markers of inflammation in LPS-stimulated microglia model systems. These results demonstrate that fasudil can alter multiple T21-associated abnormalities in a beneficial manner, suggesting that fasudil warrants further study as a candidate prenatal pharmacotherapy for DS."

DISTINCT TRANSCRIPTOMIC RESPONSES REVEAL A REGULATORY ROLE OF PIEZO1 IN PODOCYTE ADAPTATION TO MECHANICAL STRESS
(ISN-WCN 2026)
- "Podocyte injury in AII/HS-treated pPiezo1 KO mice was prevented by losartan and hydralazine, and partially ameliorated by the Rho kinase inhibitor fasudil.Conclusion Piezo1 is dispensable for podocyte maintenance under basal conditions but is essential for adaptation to mechanical stress. Its absence leads to severe podocyte injury, albuminuria, and glomerulosclerosis under both short- and long-term hypertensive stress. These findings highlight Piezo1 as a key mechanosensor in podocytes, with both insufficient and excessive activity potentially driving injury through distinct signaling pathways."

Research progress on regulatory mechanisms of mucosal barriers and their applications in allergic diseases.
(PubMed, Front Immunol)
- "In allergic diseases, this network exhibits organ-specific imbalances: respiratory barrier damage is primarily characterized by RhoA/ROCK-mediated abnormal mucus secretion (asthma) and JAK-STAT-driven Th2 inflammation (rhinitis), whereas the intestinal barrier relies more on the epithelial regenerative capacity of the Wnt pathway.We innovatively propose a "phased-organ-targeting strategy": during the acute inflammatory phase (0-72 hours), JAK inhibitors (such as CYT387 nasal spray) are utilized to block STAT6 phosphorylation and control the immune storm; in the repair phase (72 hours to 2 weeks), Wnt agonists (WNT2b-pH microspheres) are employed to promote epithelial regeneration, or RhoA regulators (fasudil inhalation) are used to reconstruct the mucus layer; in the chronic remodeling phase, a temporally regulated dual-pathway therapy (such as JAK-STAT inhibition combined with Wnt activation hydrogels) is applied. The current challenges lie in overcoming..."

Oxidative Stress and PRKN-Mediated Senescence Link RhoA/ROCK Signaling to Epithelial Remodeling in Allergic Rhinitis.
(PubMed, Antioxidants (Basel))
- "Using epithelial-specific RhoA-deficient mice (RhoAcKO) and fasudil, a RhoA/ROCK inhibitor, we found that loss of RhoA/ROCK signaling markedly attenuated nasal Th2 inflammation, oxidative stress, and epithelial remodeling following allergen challenge...Functional studies showed that PRKN overexpression mitigated IL-13-induced mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, and epithelial senescence in human nasal epithelial cells. Together, these findings reveal that RhoA-driven epithelial senescence contributes to allergic inflammation and epithelial remodeling in AR and identify PRKN as a potential therapeutic target to restore epithelial homeostasis."

Genomic and Transcriptomic Landscapes of MEN1-Wild-Type Low-Grade Metastatic Pancreatic NETs Uncover Key Oncogenic Drivers and Targetable Pathways.
(PubMed, bioRxiv)
- "Finally, upstream-regulator analysis (iPathwayGuide) and gene-centric perturbation mapping (Gene2Drug) nominated candidate targeted and repurposable agents predicted to reverse the metastatic expression phenotype and flagged drugs unlikely to provide benefit, yielding a prioritized, testable therapeutic shortlist which includes fasudil and spaglumic acid. Convergent, domain-specific mutational patterns in highly mutated genes such as ZNF273 and CLCA1 define a molecular signature that could stratify metastatic risk in low-grade pNETs. Collectively, our data reframe metastasis in MEN1-wild-type low-grade pNETs as a property of pathway state rather than mutation quantity and provide a translational blueprint for biomarker-guided therapy development focused on Calcium, WNT, and KRAS/PI3K hubs."
