Specific Tumor Structures and Microenvironment of Breast Cancer Metastasis to the Brain: A Research Review Research Background Brain metastasis is one of the severe complications faced by breast cancer patients, leading to complex neurological complications and low survival rates, with very limited treatment options. Among the various subtypes of b...
The Role of the Novel Circular RNA circZEB1 in the Malignant Phenotype of Glioblastoma Stem Cells and Its Molecular Mechanism Research Background Glioblastoma (GBM) is one of the most aggressive and fatal primary tumors in the central nervous system, with a very poor prognosis for patients. Even with surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy, the ave...
Cancer Cell International - Review Report Background and Motivation In recent decades, research into cancer evolution has gradually revealed that the evolutionary patterns of cancer cells share many similarities with species evolution. This notion has changed our understanding of tumor evolution and heterogeneity. Cancer is initiated by the mutatio...
Research Report: Validation and Analysis of a Prognostic Model for Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma Constructed with TLS-Related Genes Background and Research Motivation Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma (OSCC) is the most common subtype of Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma (HNSCC), exhibiting a high tendency for lymph node metastasis, especially to the...
Background and Research Motivation Obesity has been identified as an important risk factor for various malignancies. It not only promotes the growth and spread of tumor cells but also leads to generally poorer prognosis in patients. However, recent research has found that obese patients receiving immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) therapy, especial...
Clinical and Genetic Spectrum Study of Inherited Glycosylphosphatidylinositol Deficiency Disorders (IGDs) Background Introduction The glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchoring pathway is crucial for post-translational modification of many important proteins in eukaryotes, which are fundamental for cell signaling and early human neurogenesis and ...
Research Background With global population aging, the number of lung resection surgeries has increased significantly, including primary lung cancer resection, removal of lung metastases, and surgeries to treat lung infections or emphysema. However, little is known about the systemic stress response after thoracic surgery and interventions to improv...
A2A Adenosine Receptor Exacerbates Synaptic Loss and Memory Deficits in APP/PS1 Mice Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder associated with progressive cognitive decline, characterized by the deposition of extracellular β-amyloid (Aβ) plaques and the accumulation of hyperphosphorylated tau protein in neurons. Some epidemiological ...
Parkinson’s Disease Mouse Model: IL-10 Gene Delivery Inhibits Neuroinflammation and Neurodegeneration As research into the pathogenesis of Parkinson’s Disease (PD) deepens, the role of neuroinflammation in PD is gradually being revealed. This study by Simone Bido and his team, published in “Science Translational Medicine”, explores the effects of t...
Academic Report The incidence of global Invasive Fungal Infections (IFIs) has increased over the past few decades, primarily affecting immunocompromised patients, and these infections are often associated with high mortality and morbidity rates. Aspergillus fumigatus is one of the most common and deadly IFI pathogens. The main obstacles to effectiv...
