Recommendations for Implementing the HEvolution Alliance for Aging Biomarkers Initiative

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...

Serum NfL and Neuropsychological Performance over ∼8 Years in Women with and without HIV: A Longitudinal Repeated Measures Study

Serum Neurofilament Light Chain and Cognitive Performance in Women with and without HIV: A Longitudinal Study Over Approximately 8 Years Research Background With the widespread use of highly active antiretroviral therapy (ART), the life expectancy of individuals infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) has significantly increased. However, ...

Homeostasis and Metabolism of Iron and Other Metal Ions in Neurodegenerative Diseases

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, ...

FBXO31-mediated ubiquitination of OGT maintains O-GlcNAcylation homeostasis to restrain endometrial malignancy

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...

Cancer Cells Avoid Ferroptosis Induced by Immune Cells via Fatty Acid Binding Proteins

Cancer Cells Evade Immune Cell-Induced Ferroptosis via Fatty Acid Binding Protein 7 Background Introduction Cancer creates an immunosuppressive environment that hinders immune responses, allowing tumors to grow and resist treatment. The immune system combats this by inducing ferroptosis in tumor cells through CD8+ T cells. Ferroptosis is a type of ...

5-HT Orchestrates Histone Serotonylation and Citrullination to Drive Neutrophil Extracellular Traps and Liver Metastasis

5-HT Orchestrates Histone Serotonylation and Citrullination to Drive Neutrophil Extracellular Traps and Liver Metastasis

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...
