Unlabelled: Obesity is a major contributor to metabolic and cardiovascular disease. Although senescent cells have been shown to accumulate in adipose tissue, the role of senescence in obesity-induced metabolic disorders and in cardiac dysfunction is not yet clear; therefore, the therapeutic potential of managing senescence in obesity-related metabolic and cardiac disorders remains to be fully defined.

Objective: We investigated the beneficial effects of a senolytic cocktail (dasatinib and quercetin) on senescence and its influence on obesity-related parameters.

Background: Trastuzumab is commonly utilized in the management of metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer. Our main goal was to examine the clinical outcomes and immune markers of patients who received trastuzumab and chemotherapy treatment.

Methods: Between 1995 and 2012, a total of 98 patients diagnosed with metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer were retrospectively analyzed at Ege University Hospital and Tepecik Training and Research Hospital.

Introduction: The fungus significantly threatens maize crops in tropical soils. In light of this, biological control has emerged as a promising strategy to reduce fungicide costs and environmental risks. In this study, we aimed to test the antifungal activity of cell-free supernatant (CFS) from three (CT02, IM14, and LIS05) and one (LIS04) against , thereby contributing to the development of effective biocontrol measures.

Introduction: The understanding of the pathological events in Alzheimer's disease (AD) has advanced dramatically, but the successful translation from rodent models into efficient human therapies is still problematic.

Methods: To examine how tau pathology can develop in the primate brain, we injected 12 macaques with a dual tau mutation (P301L/S320F) into the entorhinal cortex (ERC). An investigation was performed using high-resolution microscopy, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), positron emission tomography (PET), and fluid biomarkers to determine the temporal progression of the pathology 3 and 6 months after the injection.

Multi-target drug treatment has become popular as a substitute for traditional monotherapy. Monotherapy can lead to resistance and side effects. Multi-target drug discovery is gaining importance as data on bioactivity becomes more abundant.
