Cognitive improvement by non-pharmacological electrical stimulation modalities in mild cognitive impairment: a protocol for systematic review and network meta-analysis

1 week 6 days ago
CONCLUSION: This study will synthesize evidence from multiple studies on various electrical stimulation therapies for improving cognitive function in patients with mild cognitive impairment, thereby providing a diverse body of evidence to support clinical decision-making by physicians and optimization of treatment strategies for patients.

Senescence-Driven Remodeling Defines an Aggressive and Immunomodulatory Subtype of Endometriosis

1 week 6 days ago
Endometriosis is a benign yet invasive disease characterized by ectopic endometrial growth and immune remodeling. While emerging evidence implicates cellular senescence in disease progression, the underlying mechanisms remain largely undefined. In this study, we identified marked heterogeneity in senescence across ectopic lesions and observed that P21-activated kinase 4 (PAK4) was consistently upregulated in senescent cells. Mechanistically, senescence induced PAK4 expression, which in turn...

Myeloid cell nuclear differentiation antigen (MNDA) is an interferon-inducible regulator of myelopoiesis. Potential role in the myeloid-biased aging process

2 weeks ago
Aging is a myeloid-biased process, i.e., the differentiation of myeloid cells increases, while the lymphoid lineage declines. Cellular senescence increases the secretion of inflammatory mediators which skew hematopoiesis toward myeloid cell generation. Myeloid cell nuclear differentiation antigen (MNDA) is a type-1 interferon (IFN)-inducible factor which is mainly expressed in the cells of the granulocyte-monocyte lineage, especially it is enriched in M2 macrophages and myeloid-derived...

Testicular aging revisited: Current understanding of mechanisms and emerging interventions

2 weeks ago
Male reproductive aging is a complex physiological process characterized by progressive deterioration in spermatogenesis, hormonal imbalance, and increased susceptibility to infertility and genetic disorders. This review comprehensively summarizes the pivotal molecular mechanisms underlying testicular aging, with emphasis on mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, DNA damage, autophagy impairment, chronic inflammation, cellular senescence, and dysregulated apoptosis. Accumulating evidence...

Gut Luminal Exosomes in Young and Old Mice: Multi-Omic Characteristics and Regulation of Gut Permeability

2 weeks ago
Aging is a multifaceted process impacting physiological, genomic, metabolic, and immune functions. This study investigates the role of luminal fecal exosomes (LFEs) in age-associated metabolic dysfunction. We analyzed LFEs from young (3-month) and old (24-month) male and female C57BL/6 mice to characterize age-related differences in exosomal proteomic and miRNA cargos. To explore interactions between LFEs and the gut microbiome, naïve young mice were gavage fed with LFEs from old donors,...
