Targeting Dysregulated Phago-/Auto-Lysosomes in Sertoli Cells to Ameliorate Late-Onset Hypogonadism

Research Background This study focuses on late-onset hypogonadism (LOH), aiming to uncover the mechanisms associated with age-related testicular function deviations, such as LOH, which are not yet fully understood. Utilizing single-cell RNA sequencing technology, the study analyzed the testicles of humans with LOH to identify supporting cells (SCs)...

Revealing Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress-Related CAF Subpopulations Associated with Chordoma Progression

Introduction Chordoma is a rare and locally aggressive mesenchymal tumor, believed to originate from the remnant tissues of the primitive notochord. The incidence of chordoma is approximately 0.8 per million, with a predilection for the sacral and skull base regions. Currently, the optimal treatment strategy is maximal safe surgical resection follo...
