Chronic kidney disease(CKD)associated with cancer and its treatment affects life after cancer treatment. There is inconclusive opinion on whether CKD treatment in survivors after cancer treatment needs special care differently than in the general population with CKD. Several topics were discussed by nephrologists, urologists and medical oncologists, pediatricians, pharmaceutical specialists, and others based on the results of a literature search, and the consensus was documented in the "Clinical Practice Guidelines for the Management for Kidney Injury During Anticancer Drug Therapy, 2022". The prevalence of CKD among adult cancer survivors is reported to be 4-7%. The characteristics include(1)elderly and physically impaired patients(, 2)a high risk of cancer recurrence, and(3)frequently cancer treatment-related CKD. Although there are no cancer survivor-specific indications or contraindications in the selection of renal replacement therapy, renal transplantation is often preferred in pediatric cancer survivors. It was determined that it is not appropriate to recommend or not recommend the administration of erythropoietin stimulating agents for renal anemia in cancer survivors based on a systematic review and discussion between panelists. When used in individual cases, its application should be well examined and consideration should be given to avoiding high hemoglobin level and to monitoring for cancer development.

Background: Cognitive dysfunction emerges as a manifestation of reduced estrogen levels following ovariectomy in an individual. However, the conventional use of estrogen replacement therapy could increase the risk of breast cancer and thromboembolism. Icariin is a natural compound that has been reported to be a neuroprotective agent against dementia.

Background: Global epidemiological studies involving over nine million participants have shown a 35% lower incidence of Alzheimer's Disease (AD) in older cancer survivors compared to those without a history of cancer. This inverse relationship, consistent across recent studies with methodological controls, suggests that cancer itself, rather than cancer treatments, may offer protective factors against AD. This insight opens avenues for novel therapeutic strategies targeting early AD by harnessing cancer-associated protective factors.

Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common cause of age-related dementia, and the presence of amyloid-β (Aβ) plaques and tau-containing neurofibrillary tangles is associated with the neurodegeneration and cognitive impairment in this incurable disease. Growing evidence shows that epigenetic dysregulation through histone deacetylases (HDACs) plays a critical role in synaptic dysfunction and memory loss in AD, and HDACs have been highlighted as a novel class of anti-Alzheimer targets. Moreover, restoring Wnt/β-catenin signaling, which is greatly suppressed in AD brains, is a promising therapeutic strategy for AD.

Background: Understanding the fundamental differences between the human and pre-human brain is a prerequisite for designing meaningful models and therapies for AD. Expressed CHRFAM7A, a human restricted gene with carrier frequency of 75% in the human population predicts profound translational significance.

Method: The physiological role of CHRFAM7A in human brain is explored using multiomics approach on 600 post mortem human brain tissue samples (ROSMAP).
