Sargassum horneri is a seaweed species with diverse bioactivities. However, its antifibrotic effects during nasal polyp (NP) formation are not clearly understood. Therefore, we investigated the inhibitory effect of S. horneri on fibrosis progression...

Neurodegeneration leads to multiple early changes in cognitive, emotional, and social behaviours and ultimately progresses to dementia. The dysregulation of calcium is one of the earliest potentially initiating events in the development of neurodegen...

Metabolic dysregulation of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) has been implicated in age-related macular degeneration (AMD). However, the molecular regulation of RPE metabolism remains unclear. RIP140 is known to affect oxidative metabolism and mit...

Mycoviruses are viruses that specifically infect and replicate in fungi. Several mycoviruses have been previously reported in Pleurotus ostreatus, including the oyster mushroom spherical virus (OMSV), oyster mushroom isometric virus (OMIV), Pleurotus...

Background and purpose: With the emergence of linear accelerators in radiotherapy, it becomes necessary to accurately select new dosing regimens. The purpose of this study was to assess the morphological changes of spermatogenesis after radiation exp...

Although most people are infected with Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) during their lifetime, only a minority of them develop an EBV-associated malignancy. EBV acts in both direct and indirect ways to transform infected cells into tumor cells. There are mul...

Obesity is characterized by an expansion of adipose tissue due to excessive accumulation of triglycerides in adipocytes, causing hypertrophy and hyperplasia, followed by hypoxia, alterations in adipocyte functionality, and chronic inflammation. Howev...

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a demyelinating autoimmune disorder of the central nervous system (CNS). Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) has been widely used to determine the pathogenesis of the disease and evaluate new treatment strategie...

The luteinizing hormone receptor (LHR) is a glycoprotein member of the G protein-coupled receptors superfamily. It participates in corpus luteum formation and ovulation in females and acts in testosterone synthesis and spermatogenesis in males. In th...

As we know, with continuous medical progress, the treatment of many diseases can be conducted via surgery, which often relies on general anaesthesia for its satisfactory performance. With the widespread use of general anaesthetics, people are beginni...
