The Influences of APOE Isoforms on Endothelial Adherens Junctions and Actin Cytoskeleton Responding to MCRP

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...

GDF15 Propeptide Promotes Bone Metastasis of Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer by Augmenting the Bone Microenvironment

Research Objective This study aims to identify specific proteins secreted by prostate cancer cells through comprehensive proteomic analysis and explore their role in bone metastasis, with the goal of discovering blood biomarkers that can improve the prognosis of patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Research Team an...

FBXL16: A New Regulator of Neuroinflammation and Cognition in Alzheimer’s Disease through the Ubiquitination-Dependent Degradation of Amyloid Precursor Protein

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...

BRD4 Inhibitor Reduces Exhaustion and Blocks Terminal Differentiation in CAR-T Cells by Modulating BATF and EGR1

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 ...

The Spatial Impact of a Western Diet in Enriching Galectin-1-Regulated Rho, ECM, and SASP Signaling in a Novel MASH-HCC Mouse Model

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 ...

Nucleosome Fibre Topology Guides Transcription Factor Binding to Enhancers

Nucleosome Fibre Topology Guides Transcription Factor Binding to Enhancers Academic Background The establishment of cellular identity relies on the concerted action of multiple transcription factors (TFs) bound to enhancers of cell-type-specific genes. Although TFs recognize specific DNA motifs within accessible chromatin, this information alone is...

Diatom Phytochromes Integrate the Underwater Light Spectrum to Sense Depth

Report on the Study of Diatom Phytochromes Integrating Underwater Light Spectrum to Sense Depth Academic Background The distribution of light in marine ecosystems profoundly influences aquatic life. Light not only attenuates with depth but also undergoes significant spectral changes. However, research on how phytoplankton perceive these light chang...

The Conformational Space of RNase P RNA in Solution

The Conformational Space of RNase P RNA in Solution Academic Background The conformational diversity of RNA plays a crucial role in biology, particularly in processes such as RNA splicing, packaging, cellular transcriptional activation, and responses to environmental stimuli. However, traditional biophysical techniques have been unable to directly ...

Spatial Transcriptomic Clocks Reveal Cell Proximity Effects in Brain Ageing

Spatial Transcriptomic Clocks Reveal Cell Proximity Effects in Brain Aging Academic Background With aging, cognitive function declines, and the risk of neurodegenerative diseases significantly increases. Brain aging is a complex process accompanied by numerous cellular changes. However, how aging cells affect neighboring cells and how this contribu...
