Mutations in the ANXA11 gene, encoding an RNA-binding protein, have been implicated in the pathogenesis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), but the underlying in vivo mechanisms remain unclear. This study examines the clinical features of ALS patients harboring the ANXA11 hotspot mutation p.P36R, characterized by late-onset motor neuron disease and occasional multi-system involvement.

The oncoprotein c-Myc is expressed in all breast cancer subtypes, but its expression is higher in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) compared to estrogen receptor (ER+), progesterone receptor (PR+), or human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2+) positive tumors. The c-Myc gene is crucial for tumor progression and therapy resistance, impacting cell proliferation, differentiation, senescence, angiogenesis, immune evasion, metabolism, invasion, autophagy, apoptosis, chromosomal instability, and protein biosynthesis. Targeting c-Myc has emerged as a potential therapeutic strategy for TNBC, a highly aggressive and deadly breast cancer form.

Aging remains the foremost risk factor for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, surpassing traditional factors in epidemiological significance. This review elucidates the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying vascular aging, with an emphasis on sex differences that influence disease progression and clinical outcomes in older adults. We discuss the convergence of aging processes at the macro- and microvascular levels and their contributions to the pathogenesis of vascular diseases.
