Targeting SRSF10 Might Inhibit M2 Macrophage Polarization and Potentiate Anti-PD-1 Therapy in Hepatocellular Carcinoma

The Role of SRSF10 in Immunotherapy for Hepatocellular Carcinoma Academic Background Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) ranks sixth in global cancer incidence and third in mortality. Although surgical resection is the primary treatment for HCC, the high postoperative recurrence rate significantly impacts patient prognosis. In recent years, immunotherap...

Tryptophan 2,3-Dioxygenase-Positive Matrix Fibroblasts Fuel Breast Cancer Lung Metastasis via Kynurenine-Mediated Ferroptosis Resistance of Metastatic Cells and T Cell Dysfunction

Mechanism of Stromal Fibroblasts in Breast Cancer Lung Metastasis Background Introduction Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers among women worldwide, and metastasis is the leading cause of death in breast cancer patients. The lung is one of the most common sites of breast cancer metastasis, yet the mechanisms underlying this process rema...

Local TSH/TSHR Signaling Promotes CD8+ T Cell Exhaustion and Immune Evasion in Colorectal Carcinoma

TSH/TSHR Signaling Promotes CD8+ T Cell Exhaustion and Immune Evasion in Colorectal Cancer Background Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common malignancies worldwide with high morbidity and mortality rates. Although immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy has shown significant efficacy in some patients, the majority of CRC patients, parti...

Microglia and Macrophages in Glioblastoma: Landscapes and Treatment Directions

Microglia and Macrophages in Glioblastoma Academic Background Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common primary malignant tumor of the central nervous system, characterized by high invasiveness and lethality. Despite standard treatments such as surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy, the survival rate of patients remains extremely limited, with a medi...

From Bedside to Bench: New Insights in Epilepsy-Associated Tumors Based on Recent Classification Updates and Animal Models on Brain Tumor Networks

Latest Research on Epilepsy-Associated Tumors: Classification and Animal Models Background Epilepsy is a common neurological disorder, and some patients are accompanied by brain tumors, particularly low-grade neuroepithelial tumors (LGNTs). These tumors typically grow slowly but are highly associated with drug-resistant epilepsy. Although research ...

The Multifaceted Therapeutical Role of Low-Density Lipoprotein Receptor Family in High-Grade Glioma

The Multifaceted Therapeutic Role of the Low-Density Lipoprotein Receptor Family in High-Grade Glioma Academic Background High-grade gliomas (HGG) are the most aggressive and prevalent primary brain tumors in the central nervous system (CNS), accounting for approximately 80% of all malignant brain tumors. Among them, glioblastoma (GBM) is the most ...

In Vivo Brain Delivery of BBB-Enabled Iduronate 2-Sulfatase in Rats

Delivery of Enzyme Replacement Therapy Across the Blood-Brain Barrier for Hunter Syndrome Background Hunter syndrome (Mucopolysaccharidosis II, MPS II) is a rare inherited metabolic disorder caused by a deficiency of the iduronate-2-sulfatase (IDS) enzyme. This enzyme deficiency leads to the accumulation of glycosaminoglycans (such as heparan sulfa...

Relaxin-2 Attenuates Oxidative Stress and Neuronal Apoptosis via the ERK-nNOS-NO Pathway After Germinal Matrix Hemorrhage in Rats

rh-relaxin-2 Attenuates Oxidative Stress and Neuronal Apoptosis via the ERK-nNOS-NO Pathway After Germinal Matrix Hemorrhage in Rats Academic Background Germinal Matrix Hemorrhage (GMH) is one of the most common neurological disorders in newborns, particularly in preterm infants, and is a major cause of brain injury. GMH not only triggers acute inf...

Cerebrospinal Fluid Dynamics and Subarachnoid Space Occlusion Following Traumatic Spinal Cord Injury in the Pig: An Investigation Using Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Study on Cerebrospinal Fluid Dynamics Following Traumatic Spinal Cord Injury in a Porcine Model Background Traumatic Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) is a severe neurological disorder that often leads to permanent neurological dysfunction. Despite years of efforts by scientists to develop treatments, progress has been limited due to the complex pathophysio...

Plasma S100β as a Predictor for Pathology and Cognitive Decline in Alzheimer’s Disease

Plasma S100β as a Predictor for Pathology and Cognitive Decline in Alzheimer’s Disease Academic Background Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia, characterized by the deposition of β-amyloid (Aβ) plaques and the aggregation of hyperphosphorylated microtubule-associated protein tau (tau). These pathological changes lead to gra...
