Fat infiltration (FI) in the rotator cuff muscle is associated with poor clinical outcomes and failed repair of rotator cuff tears (RCTs) in patients. In this study, we aimed to investigate the function of ginsenoside Rb1 in inhibiting FI in muscles after RCT and its underlying molecular mechanism. After TT modeling, mice treated with Rb1 for 6 weeks showed lower FI in the SS muscle compared with mice in the control groups and those treated with other ginsenoside components.

Aims: Rotator cuff muscle atrophy and fatty infiltration affect the clinical outcomes of rotator cuff tear patients. However, there is no effective treatment for fatty infiltration at this time. High-intensity interval training (HIIT) helps to activate beige adipose tissue.

Background: Fatty infiltration (FI) of the rotator cuff muscles is correlated with shoulder function and retear rates after rotator cuff repair. High-intensity interval training (HIIT) induces beige adipose tissue to express more uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) to consume lipids. The beta-3 adrenergic receptor (β3AR) is located on adipocyte membrane and induces thermogenesis.

Osteosarcoma (OS) is a cancer that is frequently found in children and adolescents and has made little improvement in terms of prognosis in recent years. A recently discovered type of programmed cell death called cuproptosis is mediated by copper ions and the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle. The expression patterns, roles, and prognostic and predictive capabilities of the cuproptosis regulating genes were investigated in this work.

Immune-related adverse events following treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) can occur at any time during therapy, with onset occurring most frequently during the first 3 months of treatment. However, they rarely occur after treatment cessation. An awareness of delayed immune-related events following the termination of immunotherapy is paramount for optimal tumour management.

Background: Osteosarcoma remains to be the most devastating malignant tumor in children and teenagers. Mitochondria have also been proven to play critical roles in osteosarcoma. However, a mitochondria-related signature has been established in osteosarcoma to comprehensively evaluate the pathogenic roles and regulatory roles of mitochondria in osteosarcoma.

Background: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a disease of joint degeneration and impaired function. Muscle atrophy, fatty infiltration, and fibrosis are degenerative features of muscle injury and predict poor outcomes in some degenerative and exercise-related injuries. Patients with glenohumeral joint OA usually have rotator cuff muscle degeneration, even though the rotator cuff is intact.

Claudins are essential for the formation and maintenance of tight junctions (TJ). The altered expression of claudin proteins has been described in a variety of malignancies. However, the alteration of these proteins in lung adenocarcinoma (ADC) are poorly understood.

Purpose: Cytokeratin 18 (CK18) is a structural protein that is normally expressed in many single-layer epithelia. Previous studies have indicated that aberrant CK18 expression is associated with cancer progression. However, the functions of CK18 in lung cancer have not been fully elucidated.

As shortened telomeres inhibit tumor formation and prolong life span in a KrasG12D mouse lung cancer model, we investigated the implications of telomerase in Kras-mutant NSCLC. We found that Kras mutations increased TERT (telomerase reverse transcriptase) mRNA expression and telomerase activity and telomere length in both immortalized bronchial epithelial cells (BEAS-2B) and lung adenocarcinoma cells (Calu-3). MEK inhibition led to reduced TERT expression and telomerase activity.

Introduction: The aim of this study was to investigate the prognostic significance of the combination of the preoperative platelet count and neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (COP-NLR) for predicting postoperative survival of patients undergoing complete resection for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

Methods: The preoperative COP-NLR was calculated on the basis of data obtained.Patients with both an increased platelet count (>30.

Background: Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) are a major component of leukocyte infiltration in the tumor microenvironment. Osteopontin is related to tumor metastasis and proliferation. Osteopontin is expressed not only by tumor cells but also by TAMs.

Introduction: Targeting activating oncogenic driver mutations in lung adenocarcinoma has led to prolonged survival in patients harboring these specific genetic alterations. The prognostic value of these mutations has not yet been elucidated. The prevalence of recently uncovered non-coding somatic mutation in promoter region of TERT gene is also to be validated in lung cancer.
