Mycosporine-glycine (M-Gly), a member of the mycosporine-like amino acid (MAA) family, is known for its potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. However, its in vivo efficacy in alleviating acute skin photodamage, primarily caused by oxidative stress, has not been well explored. In this investigation, 30 female ICR mice were divided into four groups: a control group and three Ultraviolet B (UVB)-exposed groups treated with saline or M-Gly via intraperitoneal injection for 30 days.

Various prognostic scoring systems in myelofibrosis (MF) have been developed to guide clinical decision-making in MF. However, discrepancies between different scoring systems for individual patients remain poorly understood, which can result in conflicting treatment recommendations. Moreover, data regarding there applicability in Asian populations remain scarce.

Central nervous system hemangioblastoma (CNS-HB) is the most common manifestation of von Hippel-Lindau disease (VHL). The main axis of the CNS-HB pathway is the VHL-HIF signaling pathway. Recently, we proposed an alternative VHL-JAK-STAT pathway in CNS-HB.

Low fracture toughness, low-temperature degradation (LTD) susceptibility, and inadequate soft tissue integration greatly limit the application of zirconia ceramic abutment. Integrating the "surface" of hard all-ceramic materials into the gingival soft tissue and simultaneously promoting the "inner" LTD resistance and fracture toughness is challenging. Composite ceramics are effective in improving the comprehensive properties of materials.

Background: Oxidative stress is a crucial pathophysiological mechanism in chronic diseases and mortality. While individual oxidative markers have been studied, the comprehensive impact of oxidative balance on mortality risks remains unclear, particularly among cancer survivors. We aimed to investigate the associations of Oxidative Balance Score (OBS) with mortality in both the general population and cancer survivors.
