Research Background Severe alcoholic hepatitis (ALD) is a fatal form of alcohol-associated liver disease (AALD). The course of ALD is usually accompanied by neutrophil infiltration in the liver, which significantly affects the severity of the condition. However, the specific effects of alcohol on neutrophil function remain unclear. Based on this, i...
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 ...
Proteomic Subtyping of Small Cell Lung Cancer: Analysis of Prognosis and Treatment Strategies Research Background Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC) is a highly malignant and heterogeneous cancer characterized by rapid growth, early metastasis, and drug resistance, which limits treatment options and challenges prognostic prediction models. Current genom...
Comprehensive Characterization and Transcriptome Analysis of Terminal Erythropoiesis in Human Fetal Liver Background and Research Question Erythropoiesis is the process of red blood cell production. Initially, “primitive” erythropoiesis occurs in the yolk sac, gradually replaced by “terminal” erythropoiesis in the fetal liver (FL) and postnatal bon...
Decoding Human Biology and Disease with Single-Cell Omics Technologies Background Introduction Cells are the fundamental units of life. A single fertilized egg can develop into an entire complex human body, composed of approximately 37 trillion cells organized into various tissues, organs, and systems. Traditional cell classification methods primar...
Background Introduction In modern society, metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD, previously NAFLD) is a common and serious chronic liver disease. However, the current understanding of its pathological mechanisms is not complete, including its progression to metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), liver fi...
