This review discusses multiple aspects of follicular lymphoma (FL), including etiology, treatment challenges, and future perspectives. First, we delve into the etiology of FL, which involves a variety of pathogenic mechanisms such as gene mutations, chromosomal abnormalities, immune escape, immune system dysregulation, familial inheritance, and environmental factors. These mechanisms provide the context for understanding the diversity and complexity of FL.

Unlabelled: The centromere is a part of the chromosome that is essential for the even segregation of duplicated chromosomes during cell division. It is epigenetically defined by the presence of the histone H3 variant CENP-A. CENP-A associates specifically with a group of 16 proteins that form the centromere-associated network of proteins (CCAN).

Human genomic studies have identified protein-truncating variants in associated with both bipolar disorder and schizophrenia, implicating a shared disease mechanism driven by loss-of-function. AKAP11, a protein kinase A (PKA) adaptor, plays a key role in degrading the PKA-RI complex through selective autophagy. However, the neuronal functions of AKAP11 and the impact of its loss-of-function remains largely uncharacterized.

Neurons located in the layer II of the entorhinal cortex (ECII) are the primary site of pathological tau accumulation and neurodegeneration at preclinical stages of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Exploring the alterations that underlie the early degeneration of these cells is essential to develop therapies that delay disease onset. Here we performed cell-type specific profiling of the EC at the onset of human AD neuropathology.

has been identified in human and mouse HD brain as the pathogenic exon 1 mRNA generated from aberrant splicing between exon 1 and 2 that contributes to aggregate formation and neuronal dysfunction (Sathasivam et al., 2013). Detection of the HTT exon 1 protein (HTTex1p) has been accomplished with surrogate antibodies in fluorescence-based reporter assays (MSD, HTRF), and immunoprecipitation assays, in HD postmortem cerebellum and knock-in mice but direct detection by SDS-PAGE and western blot assay has been lacking.
