The impact of age on the effect of treadmill exercise on cell proliferation in the dentate gyrus of rats was investigated via 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine immunohistochemistry. Animals of different ages were used: 4-week-old, 8-week-old, and 62-week-old. Based upon the present study, the most prominent cell proliferation in the dentate gyrus was observed in the 4-week-old rats, and decreased in direct relation to the age of the animals. In addition, although treadmill exercise increased cell proliferation in the dentate gyrus of animals in all age groups, the most potent enhancing effect appeared in the 8-week-old rats. The present results demonstrate that age is an important factor in the regulation of cell proliferation in the dentate gyrus and that the enhancing effect of the treadmill exercise on cell proliferation also depends on age status.

Bone serves as a fundamental structural component in the body, playing pivotal roles in support, protection, mineral supply, and hormonal regulation. However, critical-sized bone injuries have become increasingly prevalent, necessitating extensive medical interventions due to limitations in the body's capacity for self-repair. Traditional approaches, such as autografts, allografts, and xenografts, have yielded unsatisfactory results.

Background: Endometriosis (EMS) is a difficult gynecological disease to cure. Frizzled-7 (FZD7) has been shown to be associated with the development of EMS, but its specific mechanism remains unclarified. This study aims to explore the role of FZD7 in EMS.

Limited treatment options are available for bladder cancer (BCa) resulting in extremely high mortality rates. Cyclovirobuxine D (CVB-D), a naturally alkaloid, reportedly exhibits notable antitumor activity against diverse tumor types. However, its impact on CVB-D on BCa and its precise molecular targets remain unexplored.

Reduction of glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1), even deletion, may results in cartilage fibrosis and osteoarthritis. This study aims to investigate the SUMOylation of GLUT1 in osteoarthritis through small ubiquitin-like modifier 1(SUMO1), and explore the role of SUMOylated GLUT1 in glycometabolism, proliferation and apoptosis in chondrocytes. Human chondrocytes were incubated with 10 ng/mL of IL-1β to mimic osteoarthritis in vitro.

IL-27 is structurally an immune-enhancing and pleiotropic two-chain cytokine associated with IL-12 and IL-6 families. IL-27 contains two subunits, namely IL-27p28 and EBI3. A heterodimer receptor of IL-27, composed of IL27Rα (WSX1) and IL6ST (gp130) chains, mediates the IL-27 function following the activation of STAT1 and STAT3 signaling pathways.
