Oscillatory Contractile Forces Refine Endothelial Cell-Cell Interactions for Continuous Lumen Formation Governed by Heg1/CCM1

Academic Background The formation and maintenance of vascular networks are critical processes in embryonic development and tissue regeneration, involving the regulation of various biophysical forces. Endothelial cells (ECs) play a central role in angiogenesis and vasculogenesis, with the contractile forces of the cytoskeleton (actomyosin contractil...

The Influences of APOE Isoforms on Endothelial Adherens Junctions and Actin Cytoskeleton Responding to MCRP

Research Background Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) is a common neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the deposition of amyloid-beta (Aβ) plaques and abnormal phosphorylation of tau protein. Recent studies have increasingly highlighted the role of cerebrovascular alterations in the pathogenesis of AD. Specifically, endothelial cell damage and inflam...

FBXL16: A New Regulator of Neuroinflammation and Cognition in Alzheimer’s Disease through the Ubiquitination-Dependent Degradation of Amyloid Precursor Protein

FBXL16: A New Regulator of Neuroinflammation and Cognition in Alzheimer’s Disease through Ubiquitination-Dependent Degradation of Amyloid Precursor Protein Academic Background Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) is an age-related neurodegenerative disorder characterized by progressive cognitive decline. With the global aging population, the incidence of neuro...

BRD4 Inhibitor Reduces Exhaustion and Blocks Terminal Differentiation in CAR-T Cells by Modulating BATF and EGR1

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is the most common type of leukemia in adults. Although most AML patients achieve complete remission after standard chemotherapy, refractory and relapsed disease remain a significant challenge. Over the past decade, immunotherapy has been widely applied in cancer treatment, particularly chimeric antigen receptor T-cell ...

Single-Cell Analysis Reveals Alterations Between the Aged and Young Mice Prostates

Single-Cell Analysis Reveals Differences Between Aged and Young Mouse Prostates Academic Background The prostate is a vital component of the male reproductive system. As men age, the prostate undergoes hyperplasia, which can lead to urethral compression, resulting in voiding dysfunction and associated symptoms, as well as an increased risk of prost...
