Background/Objectives: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) severely hinders cognitive function in the hippocampus (HP) and subiculum (SUB), impacting the expression of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) such as the α7-subtype. To investigate...

Background: Detecting intracellular diffusion dynamics with high spatiotemporal resolution is critical for understanding the complex molecular mechanisms that govern viral infection, drug delivery, and sustained receptor signaling within cellular com...

The body’s physiology during physical injuries and diseases depends heavily on the function of acute inflammation. On the other hand, many variables, including iatrogenic, immune system deficiencies, lifestyle, and social and environmental fact...

The retinal network relies on glutamate, the primary excitatory neurotransmitter involved in the visual cycle. Glutamate transactions are carried out by an array of distinct receptors and transporters distributed across both pre- and post-synaptic ne...

Background: External guide sequences (EGSs) are small RNA molecules capable of hybridizing to a target mRNA and rendering the target RNA susceptible to degradation by ribonuclease P (RNase P), a tRNA processing enzyme. Methods: In this study, natural...

Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs), including dulaglutide, liraglutide, semaglutide, and exenatide, are effective treatments for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and obesity. These agents mimic the action of the endogenous incretin g...

The increased prevalence of electronic cigarettes, particularly among adolescents, has escalated concerns about nicotine addiction. Nicotine, a potent psychostimulant found in tobacco products, exerts its effects by interacting with nicotinic acetylc...
