Research Background and Objective As individuals age, hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) progressively accumulate in the bone marrow, exhibiting metabolic resilience under various stress conditions. This metabolic resilience provides an aging advantage for HSCs, enabling them to maintain cell viability even under low metabolic conditions. Although agi...
Nynrin Protects Hematopoietic Stem Cell Function by Inhibiting Mitochondrial Permeability Transition Pore Opening Background and Research Motivation Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are core cells that maintain the function of the hematopoietic system, showing unique adaptability to stress environments such as radiation damage. However, while conven...
MGA Deletion Promotes Richter’s Transformation by Regulating Mitochondrial Oxidative Phosphorylation This article mainly focuses on the transformation of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) into aggressive lymphoma, known as Richter’s Transformation (RT), exploring the function and molecular mechanism of MGA (MAX Gene Associated). MGA is a functiona...
Research Background Severe alcoholic hepatitis (ALD) is a fatal form of alcohol-associated liver disease (AALD). The course of ALD is usually accompanied by neutrophil infiltration in the liver, which significantly affects the severity of the condition. However, the specific effects of alcohol on neutrophil function remain unclear. Based on this, i...
Comparison of SaCas9 and SpCas9 in High-Fidelity and Different Gene Editing Outcomes Research Background CRISPR systems based on Cas9 protein have become powerful tools for genome editing, widely used in basic research and clinical gene therapy. Currently, the most commonly used Cas9 variants are SpCas9 from Streptococcus pyogenes and SaCas9 from S...
Comprehensive Characterization and Transcriptome Analysis of Terminal Erythropoiesis in Human Fetal Liver Background and Research Question Erythropoiesis is the process of red blood cell production. Initially, “primitive” erythropoiesis occurs in the yolk sac, gradually replaced by “terminal” erythropoiesis in the fetal liver (FL) and postnatal bon...
Exploration of Anticoagulation Therapy Resumption Time After ICH in Mechanical Heart Valve Patients Background and Motivation For patients with mechanical heart valves, determining the appropriate time to resume oral anticoagulation therapy after experiencing an intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) remains a significant clinical challenge. These patients...
Elevated IL-6 Levels and Upregulation of Iron-Regulatory Biomarkers Promote Japanese Encephalitis Virus Infection In this research paper, the authors explore changes in inflammatory response and iron-regulatory biomarkers during Japanese Encephalitis Virus (JEV) infection. A comprehensive analysis of iron-regulatory biomarkers and inflammatory resp...
Blue Autofluorescence Generated by Aβ Aggregation Illuminates Senile Plaques and Complex Blood and Vascular Pathologies in Alzheimer’s Disease Research Background Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a widespread neurodegenerative disorder globally, with senile plaques being the main pathological hallmark of AD, primarily composed of β-amyloid protein (Aβ)....
Background Introduction Chimeric antigen receptor T cells (CAR-T cells) have shown great potential in immunotherapy for certain hematological malignancies. However, how the CD28 and 4-1BB costimulatory domains included in CAR molecules function in CAR-T cells is still not fully understood. Both CD28 and 4-1BB domains exhibit significantly different...
