Introduction: Advanced age is a primary risk factor for many chronic diseases and conditions; however, age-related immune dysregulation is not well understood. Animal models, particularly those that resemble human age-related physiological changes, are needed to better understand immunosenescence and to improve health outcomes. Here, we explore the utility of the olive baboon (Papio anubis) in studying age-related changes to the immune system and understanding mechanisms of immunosenescence.

Background: The combination therapy of the B-Raf proto-oncogene (BRAF) inhibitor dabrafenib and the mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MEK) inhibitor Trametinib has shown favorable outcomes in patients initially identified with BRAF mutations. However, there are currently no large-scale study data focusing on the use of a triple therapy regimen of epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI) plus dabrafenib and trametinib in patients with newly concomitant BRAF mutations after acquiring resistance to EGFR-TKIs. Our study aimed to explore the efficacy and safety of the triple therapy regimen through a multi-center real-world experience.

This study investigated time-dependent changes in intracellular Ca⁺ levels in T cells, regulatory mechanisms, and functional effects after acute exercise. Male C57BL/6 mice were assigned to control and exercise groups, with the latter sacrificed at different intervals post-exercise. Murine splenic lymphocytes were isolated, and cytosolic Ca⁺ levels were measured using Fluo-3/AM.

Introduction: Nakaseomyces glabratus is considered a high priority of attention according to WHO, and also is an important yeast species due to its high rate of intrinsic/acquired resistance against fluconazole. This study aimed at the possible mechanisms of action of thymol, as the promising new antifungal agent, in N. glabratus.

The proliferative effects of angiotensin (Ang) II in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) through its ability to stimulate extracellular signal-regulated kinases 1 and 2 (ERK1/2) pathway have been established. The main goal of this study was to explore whether Ang III induces ERK1/2 MAPK and VSMC proliferation in cultured Wistar VSMCs. Further, the Ang III actions were compared to those observed in VSMCs derived from the spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR).
