Iron (Ferric Ion, Fe3+)-Dependent Telomerase Reactivation Drives Colorectal Cancer Development I. Research Background Colorectal Cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer globally, involving both genetic and non-genetic factors in its pathogenesis. Existing research shows a significant association between high iron content, hereditary iron overl...

High-Throughput Discovery of MHC Class I and II Restricted T Cell Epitopes Using a Novel Synthetic Cellular Circuit Research Background and Issues In recent years, antigen discovery technologies have made remarkable progress, especially in the application of human T-cell receptors (TCRs) in the recognition of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) ...

Spatially Isolated Macrophage Populations Predict Different Outcomes in Colon Cancer Introduction Macrophages are sentinel immune cells in tissues, performing a variety of functions including pathogen defense, antigen presentation, phagocytosis of dead cells, and the secretion of signals that drive tissue repair. In tumors, macrophage infiltration ...

Study on the Impact of Poverty on Mental Illness: A Mendelian Randomization Analysis Based on the UK Biobank This article aims to explore the causal relationship between poverty and mental illness. Although many studies have shown an association between low socioeconomic status and mental illnesses, most studies have failed to determine whether pov...

Comprehensive Analysis of the Joint Impact of Polygenic Risk Scores and Lifestyle on Cardiovascular Disease Incidence: A Report from the China Kadoorie Biobank Introduction Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is one of the major global health threats.

Archaeological Evidence Reveals the Continuity of Ice Age Rituals Among Australian Indigenous Peoples Research Background This study aims to explore the possibility of tracing traditional rituals in Indigenous societies through archaeological means. In societies without written records, ethnographic knowledge spanning more than a few hundred years ...

Bidirectional Epigenetic Editing Reveals Hierarchies in Gene Regulation Background and Research Motivation In the human genome, the role of non-coding elements such as enhancers in gene regulation is widely recognized. However, current CRISPR interference methods still have some limitations in studying non-coding elements and genetic interactions. ...

In this report, we present a detailed evaluation of a research paper published in the journal Nature Human Behaviour, titled “Principled Refinement of UK Biobank Phenotypic Data Reveals the Latent Structure of Human Variation.” The study, conducted by Caitlin E. Carey, Rebecca Shafee, Robbee Wedow, among others, was published online on XX XX, XXXX....

Cerebrospinal Fluid Proteomics Study for Diagnosis and Prediction of Alzheimer’s Disease Background and Research Objectives Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease that leads to memory loss and cognitive decline, and currently, there is no effective cure globally. Traditionally, the pathological features of AD include β-amyloid (Aβ)...
