Laminopathies are a group of rare disorders due to mutation in gene. Depending on the mutation, they may affect striated muscles, adipose tissues, nerves or are multisystemic with various accelerated ageing syndromes. Although the diverse pathomechanisms responsible for laminopathies are not fully understood, several therapeutic approaches have been evaluated in patient cells or animal models, ranging from gene therapies to cell and drug therapies. This review is focused on these therapies with a strong focus on striated muscle laminopathies and premature ageing syndromes.

Background And Objectives: Depression often results in premature aging, which increases the risk of other chronic diseases, but very few studies have analyzed the association between epigenetic biomarkers of aging and depressive symptoms. Similarly, limited research has examined the joint effects of adherence to the Mediterranean diet (MedDiet) and chronotype on depressive symptoms, accounting for sex differences. Therefore, these are the objectives of our investigation in a Mediterranean population at high cardiovascular risk.

COVID-19, caused by the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus, has spread to more than 200 countries, affecting millions, costing billions, and claiming nearly 2 million lives since late 2019. This highly contagious disease can easily overwhelm healthcare systems if not managed promptly. The current diagnostic method, Molecular diagnosis, is slow and has low sensitivity.

Background: This study aimed to examine the associations of cystatin C, cystatin C estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFRcys), and the difference between eGFRs (eGFRdiff) using cystatin C and creatinine levels with incident motoric cognitive risk syndrome (MCR).
Methods: We utilized data from two nationally representative cohort studies, the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS, 2011-2015) and the US Health and Retirement Study (HRS, 2010-2018). Baseline serum cystatin C and creatinine levels were measured, and eGFRcys and creatinine estimated GFR (eGFRcr) were calculated.

The oral-gut microbiota axis plays a crucial role in cardiometabolic health. This review explores the interactions between these microbiomes through enteric, hematogenous, and immune pathways, resulting in disruptions in microbial balance and metabolic processes. These disruptions contribute to systemic inflammation, metabolic disorders, and endothelial dysfunction, which are closely associated with cardiometabolic diseases.

Chronic pain is a pervasive and debilitating condition with increasing implications for public health, affecting millions of individuals worldwide. Despite its high prevalence, the underlying neural mechanisms and pathophysiology remain only partly understood. Since its introduction 35 years ago, brain diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has emerged as a powerful tool to investigate changes in white matter microstructure and connectivity associated with chronic pain.
