Improvement of Cognitive Impairment Induced by Hearing Loss Background Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) is a common dementia characterized by extracellular amyloid plaques formed by aggregation of amyloid-β (Aβ) and intracellular neurofibrillary tangles formed by aggregated tau protein. Epidemiological studies indicate a close correlation between hearing l...
Research Background and Objectives With over 50 million people worldwide affected by cognitive impairment disorders, this number is expected to double by 2050. Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia, characterized by extracellular amyloid-beta (Aβ) plaques and intracellular tau protein aggregates in the brain. Over the past tw...
Research on the Impact of Nutritional Signals on the Lifespan of Mice Background and Motivation In recent years, the intensification of global aging has posed unprecedented challenges to medicine, socio-economics, and philosophy. By 2050, the global population aged 65 and above is expected to grow from 5% at the beginning of the 20th century to 17%...
Inhibition of S6K Reduces Age-Related Inflammation and Extends Lifespan through the Endosomal-Lysosomal System Research Background and Problem Description As organisms age, chronic low-grade inflammation (inflammaging) and declined immune function (immunosenescence) become important pathological foundations of many diseases in the elderly, such as ...
Research on the Essence of Epigenetic Aging from a Single-Cell Perspective Research Background As biological research progresses, scientists have discovered that changes in DNA methylation (DNAm) constitute one of the most reliable predictors of age—known as the epigenetic clock. However, the mechanisms underlying what these clocks precisely measur...
Plasma Proteomics Predicts the Future Risk of Dementia in Healthy Adults Background and Significance Predicting dementia has always been a significant challenge in the medical field. With the development of proteomics, biomarkers in the blood offer new opportunities for predicting the onset of dementia. This study focuses on data from the UK Bioban...
Tumor Cell-Intrinsic PD-L1 Signaling Induces Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition (EMT) Predicting Poor Response to Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors in PD-L1 High-Expressing Lung Cancer Research Background and Motivation In cancer immunotherapy, Programmed Death Ligand-1 (PD-L1) inhibits immune responses by binding to Programmed Death-1 (PD-1) receptors o...
Achieving Synergistic Antitumor Activity by Dual Blocking of CCR1 and CXCR2 Expression in Myeloid Cells Background Introduction Colorectal Cancer (CRC) poses a global health crisis, with its incidence and mortality rates rapidly rising in recent years. Over the past 15 years, the mortality rate of CRC has increased by more than 30%, and it is expec...
Contribution of HMHA1/ARHGAP45 Expression Induced by Hypoxia and Post-Radiation Reoxygenation to Cancer Cell Invasion: An HIF-Dependent Mechanism Background and Motivation Prior studies have extensively demonstrated that cancer cells in solid tumors acquire malignant characteristics such as invasiveness and treatment resistance under hypoxic condit...
Overview of Genomics in Small Bowel Adenocarcinoma: A Data Integration Analysis Based on Three Major Databases Background and Significance of the Study Small Bowel Adenocarcinoma (SBA) is a rare tumor, but its incidence has increased in recent years, especially in duodenal adenocarcinoma. Approximately 20% of SBA patients have certain susceptibilit...
