Measuring protein turnover is essential for understanding cellular biological processes and advancing drug discovery. The multiplex DIA mass spectrometry (DIA-MS) approach, combined with dynamic SILAC labeling (pulse-SILAC, or pSILAC), has proven to be a reliable method for analyzing protein turnover and degradation kinetics. Previous multiplex DIA-MS workflows have employed various strategies, including leveraging the highest isotopic labeling channels of peptides to enhance the detection of isotopic MS signal pairs or clusters.

Article Synopsis
  • Osteoporosis is uncommon in young individuals but can occur due to causes like endocrine diseases, malnutrition, and pregnancy-related factors; the latter, known as Pregnancy and Lactation-Associated Osteoporosis (PLO), is often misdiagnosed due to limited diagnostic practices during pregnancy.
  • A case study of a 24-year-old new mother with severe back pain revealed multiple vertebral fractures linked to PLO after ruling out other causes, leading to targeted treatment that effectively resolved her symptoms.
  • It is crucial for healthcare providers to consider PLO in young women experiencing unexplained fragility fractures around the time of pregnancy, as early diagnosis can prevent long-term complications.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) poses a significant and growing health burden among aging populations, marked by increasing prevalence and complex management challenges specific to elderly patients. This review explores the multifaceted interplay between COPD and aging, highlighting overlapping pathophysiological processes and comorbidities that complicate diagnosis and treatment. We examine age-specific management strategies, emphasizing the need for tailored approaches that account for the unique physical, cognitive, and health-related quality of life impacts on older adults.

Background: Gallbladder cancer (GBC) is associated with a high mortality rate. Asian American (AsA) are among the fastest-growing populations in the United States, yet little is known about the disparity of GBC within this cohort. This study identified trends in treatment and outcomes for GBC in a disaggregated fashion, specifically for this population.
