Background: The repair of osteoporotic bone defects remains challenging due to excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS), persistent inflammation, and an imbalance between osteogenesis and osteoclastogenesis. Methods: Here, an injectable H2-releasing …

Developmental causes of the most common arrhythmia, atrial fibrillation (AF), are poorly defined, with compensation potentially masking arrhythmic risk. Here, we delete 9 amino acids (Δ9) within a conserved domain of the giant protein titin's A-band in …

Purpose: To address the problem of suboptimal reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in Radiation therapy (RT) which was resulted from exacerbated tumor hypoxia and the heterogeneous distribution of radiation sensitizers. Materials and Methods: In this …

Background: The inadequate perfusion, frequently resulting from abnormal vascular configuration, gives rise to tumor hypoxia. The presence of this condition hinders the effective delivery of therapeutic drugs and the infiltration of immune cells into the …

ANKRD11 (Ankyrin Repeat Domain 11) is a chromatin regulator and a causative gene for KBG syndrome, a rare developmental disorder characterized by multiple organ abnormalities, including cardiac defects. However, the role of ANKRD11 in heart development is …

Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) represents a critical cardiovascular condition characterized by localized dilation of the abdominal aorta, carrying a significant risk of rupture and mortality. Current treatment options are limited, necessitating novel …

Aim: To investigate the clinical feasibility of ultra-high-frequency abdominal ultrasound (UHFUS) scans of preterm and term infants. Methods: Prospectively, 19 healthy term newborn infants were examined with conventional ultrasound (CUS) (Toshiba, Aplio …

Background and Aim: Lung cancer remains a leading cause of global mortality, necessitating robust animal models for research into its mechanisms and therapeutic options. This study aimed to develop and validate a novel lung cancer mouse model using the …

Background: Phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (PHGDH) is the rate-limiting enzyme in the de novo Serine synthesis pathway (SSP), a highly regulated pathway overexpressed in several tumors. Specifically, PHGDH expression is dynamically regulated during …

Echocardiography is the most primary clinical modality for dynamic cardiac imaging. However, the vigorous motion of myocardial tissue inherently causes inevitable signal aliasing between blood flow and myocardial tissue in traditional Doppler ultrasound …
