Research Progress in Cancer Immunology: Tumor-derived Antigen Signals Induce CD8+ T-cell Exhaustion Localized to the Tumor Site Research Background and Purpose In recent years, immunotherapy has shown great potential in cancer treatment. However, tracking the behavior of immune cells after receiving antigen signals remains a challenge. Within tumor...
A Study on the Effect of YEATS2 Gene Knockdown on Dopaminergic Synaptic Integrity and Epileptic-like Behavior in Drosophila Background Introduction Epilepsy is a common neurological disorder characterized by abnormal electrical activities in the brain. These abnormal activities can lead to seizures and other neurological symptoms. Familial adult my...
Study Reveals Molecular Mechanisms of Enhanced Cocaine Craving in Rats During Withdrawal Background Introduction The issue of relapse in drug abuse poses a significant challenge in addiction treatment. According to related research, relapse behaviors in drug addiction are often triggered by environmental cues associated with drug use. This phenomen...
Academic Report on “Contralateral Delay Activity and Alpha Lateralization Reflect Retinotopic and Screen-Centered Reference Frames in Visual Memory” Introduction The visual system is organized in a lateralized manner, with the left and right visual fields processed by the contralateral cerebral cortex. This organization applies not only to percepti...
Mesoscale Organization of Ventral and Dorsal Visual Pathways in Macaque Monkey Revealed by 7T fMRI In the journal Progress in Neurobiology, a research team from the Interdisciplinary Institute of Neuroscience and Technology and the Department of Neurosurgery at the Second Hospital in Zhejiang University published a paper titled “Mesoscale organizat...
New Findings in Alzheimer’s Disease Research: The Regulatory Role of Signal Peptide Peptidase-Like 2b in the β-Amyloid Cascade Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) is a complex neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the abnormal accumulation of β-amyloid peptides (Aβ) in brain tissue and the formation of intracellular neurofibrillary tangles. The abnormal...
Analyzing the Gene Expression Network in Developing Hippocampus from the Perspective of NEIL3 Deficiency Background The hippocampus, a crucial region of the brain, is well-regarded for its key roles in memory consolidation, information processing, and emotional regulation. In the field of neuroscience research, the gene regulatory mechanisms of the...
APP/PS1 Mouse Study Reveals Link Between Chronic Induced Epilepsy and Alzheimer’s Disease Background Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) is the most common type of dementia globally, affecting over 55 million people. The typical pathological feature of AD is the deposition of amyloid-β (Aβ) in the brain. Although Aβ deposition and the mechanisms it triggers p...
The Regulatory Mechanism of Central Complement C3a Receptor on LPS-Induced Depressive-Like Behavior Introduction With the increasing number of depression patients globally, major depressive disorder (MDD) has become one of the leading causes of disability worldwide. The symptoms, treatment effects, and biological correlations of depression exhibit ...
Epilepsy is one of the most common neurological disorders, with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) being the most prevalent form of drug-resistant epilepsy in adults. Numerous studies have indicated that TLE involves not only pathological changes in the medial temporal lobe but also affects widespread brain structures and functions. In this scientific re...
