Objective: This study examined the correlation of cerebral tissue oxygen saturation (SctO) and cerebral tissue fractional oxygen extraction (cFTOE) with gestational age (GA) and postnatal age over the first 28 days of life.
Study Design: Preterm infants with birth weight (BW) <1500 g were monitored with near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) during the first 28 days of life. SctO and cFTOE measurements were analyzed using a linear mixed model.
Results: A total of 70 preterm infants were included. Mean SctO decreased with increasing GA; SctO was 76.4% and 74.6% in the first 24 h for infants 24 and 28-week GA, respectively. For infants born at 24 and 28 it decreased to 52.9% and 58.4% at 28 days of life, respectively. cFTOE increased with increasing GA and postnatal age.
Conclusions: There is an inverse relationship between SctO and gestational age and postnatal age but a direct relationship between cFTOE with GA and postnatal age.

Trehalose has neuroprotective effects in neurodegenerative diseases. This study aimed to explore the impact of trehalose on traumatic brain injury (TBI) by investigating its role in neuroprotection. The TBI mice model was established utilizing the cortical impact technique followed by trehalose treatment.

Microglial polarization and ferroptosis are important pathological features in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Ghrelin, a brain-gut hormone, has potential neuroprotective effects in AD. This study aimed to explore the potential mechanisms by which ghrelin regulates the progression of AD, as well as the crosstalk between microglial polarization and ferroptosis.

Non-communicable diseases (NCD) are associated with inflammation and oxidative stress which is further associated with omega-6 (ω6) and omega-3 (ω3) fatty acid (FA) imbalance favoring ω6 FA. By improving ω3 FA consumption, this imbalance can be altered to control NCD. Previously we have reported blends of flaxseed oil (FSO, ω3 FA) with palm olein (PO) or coconut oil (CO) were thermo-oxidatively stable with good storage stability and could improve ω6:ω3 ratio in cell lines.

Background: Immunosenescence is the aging of the immune system, which is closely related to the development and prognosis of lung cancer. Targeting immunosenescence is considered a promising therapeutic approach.
Methods: We defined an immunosenescence gene set (ISGS) and examined it across 33 TCGA tumor types and 29 GTEx normal tissues.

Glioblastoma IDH wild type (GB), the most common malignant primary brain tumor, is characterized by rapid proliferation, extensive infiltration into surrounding brain tissue, and significant resistance to current therapies. Median survival is only 15 months despite extensive clinical efforts. The tumor microenvironment (TME) in GB is highly specialized, supporting the tumor's aggressive behavior and its ability to evade conventional treatments.
