Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a rapidly recurring and highly metastatic malignancy with high heterogeneity and chemoradiotherapy resistance. Chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) can induce the occurrence of tumors and enhance lymphatic infiltration and distant metastasis through direct interaction with the sympathetic nervous system; however, its relevance in TNBC is yet to be clarified. In this study, DARS-AS1, a newly reported CUMS-responsive lncRNA, was found to be enriched in TNBC clinical tumors and cells and positively correlated with late clinical stage in patients with TNBC. DARS-AS1 overexpression significantly enhanced the migration and invasion of TNBC tumors by inhibiting miR-129-2-3p and upregulated CDK1 to activate the NF-κB/STAT3 signaling pathway both in vitro and in vivo. Treatment with DARS-AS1 siRNA-loaded exosomes (EXOs) substantially slowed CUMS-induced TNBC cell growth and liver metastasis. Therefore, DARS-AS1 represents a potential therapeutic target for metastatic TNBC, and EXOs may serve as siRNA delivery carriers in clinical therapy.

Experimental studies of major depressive disorder (MDD) and stress reveal connectivity disturbances of the prefrontal cortex (PFC) that may involve molecular and morphological changes in myelin and the axons it enwraps. These alterations may also affect the nodes of Ranvier (NR), myelin-bare axon stretches along myelin sheaths necessary for action potential propagation, as well as the paranodes, specialized regions of the myelin sheath flanking NRs. Thus, we investigated whether paranode length and the labeling of paranode marker CASPR in PFC white matter (WM) differed in MDD subjects and chronic stress-exposed rats, as compared to their respective controls.

Introduction: () infection is highly prevalent globally and poses a significant public health challenge due to its link with chronic gastritis, peptic ulcers, and gastric malignancies. 's persistence within the gastric environment, particularly in case of infection with virulent strains, triggers chronic inflammatory responses and mucosal damage. Antibiotic therapy is the primary approach for eradication, but antibiotic resistance and adverse effects hinder treatment efficacy.

Air quality is a major concern for human health, with pollutants linked to respiratory problems and chronic illnesses. Air quality monitoring systems are essential for measuring and tracking pollutants in indoor and outdoor environments. In the various disciplines of fuzzy environments, the aggregation operators are indispensable components of the decision-making process and possess a significant capacity to manage unpredictable and ambiguous data.

Psychological distress, including anxiety or mood disorders, emanates from the onset of chronic/unpredictable stressful events. Symptoms in the form of maladaptive behaviors are learned and difficult to treat. While the origin of stress-induced disorders seems to be where learning and stress intersect, this relationship and molecular pathways involved remain largely unresolved.

Depression is a prevalent mental illness that significantly impairs individuals' overall quality of life and physical well-being. However, the pathological mechanisms of depression remain unclear, and effective treatment strategies are urgently needed. Pentraxin 3 (PTX3), a long pentraxin protein, plays a significant role in various pathological conditions, including infections, immune responses, and tissue repair.
