Academic Background The formation and maintenance of vascular networks are critical processes in embryonic development and tissue regeneration, involving the regulation of various biophysical forces. Endothelial cells (ECs) play a central role in angiogenesis and vasculogenesis, with the contractile forces of the cytoskeleton (actomyosin contractil...
Research Background Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) is a common neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the deposition of amyloid-beta (Aβ) plaques and abnormal phosphorylation of tau protein. Recent studies have increasingly highlighted the role of cerebrovascular alterations in the pathogenesis of AD. Specifically, endothelial cell damage and inflam...

FBXL16: A New Regulator of Neuroinflammation and Cognition in Alzheimer’s Disease through Ubiquitination-Dependent Degradation of Amyloid Precursor Protein Academic Background Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) is an age-related neurodegenerative disorder characterized by progressive cognitive decline. With the global aging population, the incidence of neuro...
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is the most common type of leukemia in adults. Although most AML patients achieve complete remission after standard chemotherapy, refractory and relapsed disease remain a significant challenge. Over the past decade, immunotherapy has been widely applied in cancer treatment, particularly chimeric antigen receptor T-cell ...
Single-Cell Analysis Reveals Differences Between Aged and Young Mouse Prostates Academic Background The prostate is a vital component of the male reproductive system. As men age, the prostate undergoes hyperplasia, which can lead to urethral compression, resulting in voiding dysfunction and associated symptoms, as well as an increased risk of prost...
The Spatial Impact of a Western Diet in Enriching Galectin-1-Regulated Rho, ECM, and SASP Signaling in a Novel MASH-HCC Mouse Model Academic Background Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide, and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) is one of the primary triggers of HCC. With ...
Combined Single-Cell and Spatial Transcriptome Analysis Reveals Cellular Heterogeneity of the Hedgehog Pathway in Gastric Cancer Academic Background Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most common and deadly malignancies worldwide, with high incidence and mortality rates. Despite advancements in chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and targeted therapy, the t...
Academic Background Liver regeneration is a complex biological process involving the coordinated action of various cell types and signaling pathways. Following partial liver resection, the remaining liver tissue restores its function and mass through a series of precisely regulated cell proliferation and immune responses. Although extensive researc...
Automated Analysis of Ultrastructure: A Study Based on Large-Scale Hyperspectral Electron Microscopy Academic Background Electron Microscopy (EM) is a key technique for studying biological ultrastructure, revealing the fine details of cells at biomolecular resolution. In recent years, advancements in automation and digitization have enabled EM to c...
