The Impact of Super-Relaxed Myosin on Diaphragm Dysfunction in Ventilated Patients Background Weak diaphragm contraction is a common problem in patients receiving mechanical ventilation in intensive care units (ICUs). This leads to difficulties in weaning patients off ventilators, increases mortality rates, and imposes a significant economic burden...
“Revisiting Distinct Nerve Excitability Patterns in Patients with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis” Academic Background Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) is a devastating neurodegenerative disease characterized by the progressive loss of central and peripheral motor neurons. Although the disease is clinically and genetically heterogeneous, axonal hy...
CRISPR-Cas-Based Epigenome Editing in Alzheimer’s Disease: Engineered Exosomes with a Photoinducible Protein Delivery System Background Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) is a common neurodegenerative disorder characterized by progressive decline in cognitive function and memory, with currently limited treatment options. Genome editing technologies, such as ...
Reactivation of Insulin Receptors Can Restore Brain Function in Early Lepr-Deficient Mice Background Obesity is a chronic disease caused by excessive fat accumulation, affecting both body and brain health. Deficiency of the insulin receptor (Leptin receptor, Lepr) is considered an important factor in the pathogenesis of obesity. Insulin plays a cru...
Transcriptome Dynamics and Cell Dialogue Between Oocytes and Granulosa Cells During Mouse Follicle Development Overview Follicle development and maturation is a complex, multi-stage process. During this process, dynamic gene expression in oocytes and surrounding somatic cells, as well as the dialogue between them, play crucial roles. This study rev...
