Differential Effects of Exercise Timing on Skeletal Growth in Mice Introduction Skeletal growth is crucial for adult height and bone health. Studies have shown that exercise can effectively increase bone density, but the optimal exercise timing remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the optimal exercise timing by comparing the effects of ...
Layer-Dependent Effects of Chronic Neural Electrode Implants on Neural Functional Connectivity in Mice Introduction This study explores the long-term effects of chronically implanted microelectrodes on neural functional connectivity within the brains of C57BL6 wild-type mice. Implanted intracerebral electrodes enable the recording and electrical st...
Comprehensive Academic Report on Scientific Paper Research Background Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory and degenerative disease of the central nervous system (CNS), affecting approximately 2.8 million people worldwide. The pathological mechanisms of this disease are mainly related to autoimmune-mediated demyelination and axonal transectio...
Characteristics, Quantity, and Spatial Distribution of Human Cervical Vagus Nerve and its Cardiac Superior Branch Nerve Fibers Introduction In modern medicine, Vagus Nerve Stimulation (VNS) is widely used to treat various diseases such as epilepsy, obesity, depression, and heart diseases. Although the overall Vagus nerve stimulation method has prov...
Whole-Brain Mapping of Specific Orbitofrontal Cortex Neuron Inputs and Outputs in Mice Research on the mouse brain has always been an important topic in neuroscience, especially studies on the orbitofrontal cortex (ORB). The ORB plays a key role in reward processing, decision making, behavioral flexibility, and emotional regulation. In recent years...
Background Introduction The brain is composed of different subtypes of neurons, which form complex neural networks through local and long-range synaptic connections. Understanding the functions of these neural networks requires knowledge of their connection patterns (projectome) and neuronal dynamics. Although advancements in mesoscale connectomics...
Single-Cell Analysis of Anti-BCMA CAR-T Cell Therapy in Patients with Central Nervous System Autoimmune Diseases Introduction Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy has shown potential long-term control in treating central nervous system (CNS) autoimmune diseases. This paper investigates the effects of anti-BCMA (B-cell maturation antigen) ...
Scientific Paper Report Discoveries in the field of science often have significant implications for understanding natural phenomena and improving practical applications. Recently, a research paper published in Science Immunology titled “Serine enrichment in tumors promotes regulatory T cell accumulation through sphinganine-mediated regulation of c-...
TH17 Endogenous IL-1β–STAT5 Axis Drives Steroid Resistance in Autoimmune Neuroinflammation Academic Background Steroid resistance is a major challenge in managing various inflammatory diseases, including autoimmune neuroinflammation. T helper 17 (TH17) cells are widely believed to be associated with steroid resistance. However, the specific mechani...
Nucleotide Adduct Binding MR1 and Activation of MR1-Restricted T Cells Academic Background MR1T cells, a recently discovered class of T cells, can recognize antigens presented by MHC class I-related molecule MR1 without microbial infection. These cells exhibit both helper and cytotoxic properties in vitro, but the endogenous antigens they recognize...
