The present study investigated the 8‐year association between beta amyloid (Aβ) and cognitive decline to weigh in on the validity of the amyloid cascade hypothesis, which posits that Aβ drives the downstream processes leading to cognitive decline in Alzheimer's disease (AD).

Cooperative stimulation of mechanical stress and osteoinductive factor, such as BMP‐2, enhances BMP signaling via the upregulation of BMP receptors. As a result, CCN1 production is increased and is secreted to the extracellular environment. Secreted CCN1 promotes Runx2 expression through interaction with integrin, leading to early osteogenic ...

Ganoderic Acid A Ameliorates Pentylenetetrazol‐Induced Epilepsy in Mice via Activating KCNQ2
GA‐A binds and activates KCNQ2, thereby reducing epileptic‐like EEG discharges, the loss and apoptosis of hippocampal neurons, and improving anxiety and depression‐like behavioral changes. In addition, GA‐A inhibits neuroinflammation and alleviates oxidative stress independent of activating KCNQ2.

CYP2D6 metabolizes about 20% of commonly used drugs, including tamoxifen, a major hormone therapy for breast cancer. Although the relationship between tamoxifen pharmacokinetics and CYP2D6 genotype has been demonstrated, residual variability in drug exposure remains unexplained.

Abstract Alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) is an important perennial forage crop and a highly heterozygous autotetraploid species (2n = 4x = 32), making high‐density linkage mapping challenging. This study evaluated the effects of reference genome choice and population size on the development of genetic linkage maps using genotyping‐by‐sequencing‐derived ...
