Promoting Healthy Longevity: Implementation Recommendations for the Hevolution Alliance for Aging Biomarkers Initiative Academic Background and Research Motivation With the intensification of global population aging, human life expectancy has significantly increased, but the growth in healthy life expectancy (i.e., years lived in good health) has b...
Homeostasis and Metabolism of Iron and Other Metal Ions in Neurodegenerative Diseases Academic Background Neurodegenerative diseases (such as Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and Huntington’s disease) are characterized by neuronal death and gradual loss of function, leading to the deterioration of cognitive, ...
Research Background and Problem Introduction Protein O-GlcNAc glycosylation is an important post-translational modification that plays a critical role in cellular metabolic plasticity. Aberrant O-GlcNAc glycosylation levels have been observed in various cancers, including endometrial cancer (EC), a common malignancy in women. However, clinical char...
Mechanism Study on 5-Hydroxytryptamine Regulating Histone Modifications to Drive Liver Metastasis Academic Background Cancer metastasis is one of the leading causes of cancer patient mortality, especially visceral organ metastases such as liver metastasis (liver metastasis). Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) are a class of highly metastatic tumors, amon...
In recent years, with the global increase in drug abuse, particularly opioids, scientists have become increasingly focused on the neurobehavioral effects of such substances. Among them, buprenorphine, an opioid, is widely used for medication-assisted treatment of opioid addiction. However, beyond its analgesic and addiction treatment effects, bupre...
Adiporon Ameliorates the Progression of Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction (HFpEF) by Reducing Lipid Accumulation and Fibrosis Research Background Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is the most common type of heart failure, often coexisting with metabolic disorders such as obesity, diabetes, and hypertension. Althoug...
Academic Background Pathological Myocardial Hypertrophy (PMH) is an adaptive response of the heart under various pathological stimuli, but its long-term development ultimately leads to Heart Failure (HF). Although some understanding of the pathogenesis of PMH has been established, its mortality rate remains high, and there is an urgent need for new...
Collecting Duct NCOR1 Regulates Blood Pressure by Controlling Mineralocorticoid Receptor Academic Background Hypertension is one of the major risk factors for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases globally, with complex and not fully elucidated mechanisms. The kidney plays a critical role in blood pressure regulation, particularly in the proc...
