DNA Methylation Characteristics for Recognizing Mowat-Wilson Syndrome Background Mowat-Wilson syndrome (MOWS) is a rare neurodevelopmental disorder caused by heterozygous deletions or loss-of-function mutations in the ZEB2 gene. This gene encodes a transcription factor involved in neural development. Individuals with MOWS often present with moderat...

Brain-Derived Exosomal Circular RNAs in Plasma as Diagnostic Biomarkers for Acute Ischemic Stroke Acute ischemic stroke (AIS), commonly known as stroke, is a serious condition characterized by interrupted blood flow to the brain, resulting in tissue damage and neurological deficits. Early diagnosis is crucial for effective intervention and manageme...

Association Study of Perioperative IL8 and IL18 Levels with Brain Basal Ganglia Atrophy Three Months After Surgery Background In recent years, an increasing number of studies have shown that surgical procedures may accelerate brain atrophy. Meanwhile, the relationship between systemic inflammation and neurodegenerative diseases has also received co...

Research Report: Neutrophils Disrupt B-1a Cell Homeostasis by Targeting Siglec-G, Exacerbating Sepsis Background Sepsis is a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated immune response to infection. The immune system dysfunction accompanying sepsis is primarily triggered by pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and damage-a...

Research Review: Treating Traumatic Brain Injury through Selective Inhibition of IL-6 Pathway Background Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is one of the leading causes of long-term neurological damage and death globally, with no effective disease-modifying treatments currently available. TBI patients often suffer from cognitive, behavioral, and sensory ...
