The evolution process between the earthquake swarm beneath the Noto Peninsula, central Japan and the 2024 M 7.6 Noto Hanto earthquake sequence by Zhigang Peng, Xinglin Lei, Qing-Yu Wang, Dun Wang, Phuc Mach, Dongdong Yao, Aitaro Kato, Kazushige Obara, Michel Campillo

“…Our results suggest a complex evolution process linking the earthquake swarm to the nucleation of the M 7.6 mainshock at a region of complex structures associated with the bend of a mapped large-scale reverse fault. A combination of fluid migration, aseismic slip and elastic stress triggering likely work in concert to drive both the prolonged earthquake swarm and the nucleation of the M7.6 mainshock.…”

Targeting adipocyte ESRRA promotes osteogenesis and vascular formation in adipocyte-rich bone marrow by Tongling Huang, Zhaocheng Lu, Zihui Wang, Lixin Cheng, Lu Gao, Jun Gao, Ning Zhang, Chang-An Geng, Xiaoli Zhao, Huaiyu Wang, Chi-Wai Wong, Kelvin W. K. Yeung, Haobo Pan, William Weijia Lu, Min Guan

“…Mechanistically, adipocyte ESRRA interferes with E2/ESR1 signaling resulting in transcriptional repression of secreted phosphoprotein 1 (Spp1); yet positively modulates leptin expression by binding to its promoter. ESRRA abrogation results in enhanced SPP1 and decreased leptin secretion from both visceral adipocytes and BMAds, concertedly dictating bone marrow stromal stem cell fate commitment and restoring type H vessel formation, constituting a feed-forward loop for bone formation. …”
