Mechanical Ventilation Guided by Driving Pressure Optimizes Local Pulmonary Biomechanics in an Ovine Model

Optimization of Respiratory Pressure Under Mechanical Ventilation Guidance - A Study on Improving Local Lung Biomechanics Mechanical ventilation is commonly used in clinical practice to treat acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and prevent pulmonary complications after general anesthesia. However, mechanical ventilation can cause harmful str...

Targeting the Transferrin Receptor to Transport Antisense Oligonucleotides Across the Mammalian Blood-Brain Barrier

Introduction In recent years, oligonucleotide-based therapeutic technologies, such as antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) and small interfering RNAs (siRNAs), have been widely applied in the treatment of various neurological disorders. The basis for their application is that these technologies can selectively regulate target RNA molecules, which are ...

MGA Deletion Leads to Richter’s Transformation by Modulating Mitochondrial OXPHOS

MGA Deletion Promotes Richter’s Transformation by Regulating Mitochondrial Oxidative Phosphorylation This article mainly focuses on the transformation of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) into aggressive lymphoma, known as Richter’s Transformation (RT), exploring the function and molecular mechanism of MGA (MAX Gene Associated). MGA is a functiona...

Super-relaxed Myosins Contribute to Respiratory Muscle Hibernation in Mechanically Ventilated Patients

The Impact of Super-Relaxed Myosin on Diaphragm Dysfunction in Ventilated Patients Background Weak diaphragm contraction is a common problem in patients receiving mechanical ventilation in intensive care units (ICUs). This leads to difficulties in weaning patients off ventilators, increases mortality rates, and imposes a significant economic burden...
