Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most significant oncological threats to human health globally. Patients often exhibit a high propensity for tumor recurrence and metastasis post-surgery, resulting in suboptimal prognoses. One of the underlying reasons for the metastatic potential of CRC is the sustained abnormal state of the tumor immune microenvironment, particularly characterized by the atypical death of critical immune cells.

However, the underlying pathogenesis of lung cancer caused by senescence is not clear. In this study, we try to explain the potential pathogenesis between senescence and lung cancer through proteomics and metabonomics.

However, it is unclear whether this correlation is causally or violated by confounding or backward causality. Therefore, this study explored the potential causal relationship between intestinal metabolites and dependent metabolites on ASD.

In this study, an ultrafine magnetic activated carbon (MAC) consisting of FeO and PAC was prepared by ball milling to remove PFCs from water efficiently. Increasing the percentage of FeO and balling milling time decreased its adsorption capacity for perfluoroctane sulfonate (PFOS), whereas increased the magnetic separation property to some degree.

Glioblastoma, the most common primary brain tumor of adults, is characterized by poor survival rates. Programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1, CD274) has been implicated in the immune escape of glioblastoma. The presence of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) in glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) has sparked considerable interest and controversy.
