Swine pseudorabies virus attenuated vaccine reprograms the kidney cancer tumor microenvironment and synergizes with PD-1 blockade.

The global incidence rate of kidney cancer (KC) has been steadily increasing over the past 30 years. With the aging global population, kidney cancer has become an escalating concern that necessitates vigilant surveillance. Nowadays, surgical intervention remains the optimal therapeutic approach for kidney cancer, while the availability of efficacious treatments for advanced tumors remains limited.

A novel approach for diabetic foot diagnosis: Deep learning-based detection of lower extremity arterial stenosis.

Purpose Of The Study: Assessing the lower extremity arterial stenosis scores (LEASS) in patients with diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) is a challenging task that requires considerable time and efforts from physicians, and it may yield varying results. The presence of vascular wall calcification and other irrelevant tissue information surrounding the vessel can further compound the difficulties of this evaluation. Automatic detection of lower extremity arterial stenosis (LEAS) is expected to help doctors develop treatment plans for patients faster.

Microglial Piezo1 senses Aβ fibril stiffness to restrict Alzheimer's disease.

The pathology of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is featured with extracellular amyloid-β (Aβ) plaques, whose impact on the mechanical properties of the surrounding brain tissues is unclear. Microglia sense and integrate biochemical cues of the microenvironment. However, whether the microglial mechanosensing pathways influence AD pathogenesis is unknown.
