αvβ5 Integrin/FAK/PGC-1α Pathway Confers Protective Effects on Retinal Pigment Epithelium. [PDF]
To elucidate the mechanism of the induction of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ coactivator-1α (PGC-1α) by photoreceptor outer segments (POS) and its effects on retinal pigment epithelium (RPE).PGC-1α upregulation by POS was confirmed in ARPE-

Biomarkers of Sarcopenia: Current Status and Future Perspectives
In this review, we summarize the various biomarkers discovered in recent years, including biochemical, imaging, and physical testing markers. We analyze their advantages and disadvantages and propose potential ways to improve the diagnostic accuracy of biomarkers, as well as future research directions.

Composition‐Aware Cross‐Sectional Integration for Spatial Transcriptomics
Multi‐section spatial transcriptomics demands coherent cell‐type deconvolution, domain detection, and batch correction, yet existing pipelines treat these tasks separately. FUSION unifies them within a composition‐aware latent framework, modeling reads as cell‐type–specific topics and clustering in embedding space.

PPARGC1A regulates transcriptional control of mitochondrial biogenesis in early bovine embryos
Extensive mitochondrial replication during oogenesis and its role in oocyte maturation and fertilization indicate that the amount of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) may play a significant role in early embryonic development.

ABSTRACT Fanconi Anemia (FA) is the most frequent inherited bone marrow failure syndrome. A role for the XRCC2 gene in FA was suspected in 2012 and confirmed in 2016, but only two affected individuals have been described thus far, and no long‐term follow‐up is available.

Skeletal muscle-specific expression of PGC-1α-b, an exercise-responsive isoform, increases exercise capacity and peak oxygen uptake. [PDF]
Maximal oxygen uptake (VO(2max)) predicts mortality and is associated with endurance performance. Trained subjects have a high VO(2max) due to a high cardiac output and high metabolic capacity of skeletal muscles.

ErZhi formula (EZF) is composed of Ligustri Lucidi Fructus (LLF) and Ecliptae herba (EH). Ovariectomized (OVX) and sham rats received 12‐week intragastric treatment with EZF, alendronate, and vehicle saline. Gastrocnemius tissues were harvested to systematically evaluate pharmacodynamic changes in skeletal muscle morphology, mitochondrial ...

Suppression of PGC-1α Is Critical for Reprogramming Oxidative Metabolism in Renal Cell Carcinoma
Long believed to be a byproduct of malignant transformation, reprogramming of cellular metabolism is now recognized as a driving force in tumorigenesis. In clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), frequent activation of HIF signaling induces a metabolic ...

Alzheimer's Disease Co‐Pathology and Cognitive Impairment in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
Objectives Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and Alzheimer's disease (AD) share neuropathological features, including tau, amyloid, and TDP‐43 pathology. This study investigated whether AD‐related pathological changes are associated with cognitive impairment ALS. Methods Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF total‐tau, phosphorylated‐tau, beta‐amyloid) and plasma

Gonadal development in scorpion mud‐turtles, Kinosternon scorpioides, in a controlled environment
Stage 20 was identified as the critical point for gonadal differentiation in Kinosternon scorpioides, providing key insights into sex determination. These findings enhance conservation strategies by supporting reproductive management and population viability in both in situ and ex situ programs. Abstract Research on gonadal development including sexual
