Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is associated with the acceleration of lung aging, and the accumulation of senescent cells in lung tissue. MicroRNA (miR)-34a induces senescence by suppressing the anti-aging molecule, sirtuin-1 (SIRT1). Senescent cells spread senescence to neighbouring and distant cells, favouring COPD progression and its comorbidities.

Background: Menopause can be seen as a complex phenomenon influenced by an individual's cultural norms, belief systems, and lifestyle choices. In conservative societies such as Saudi Arabia, some women silently struggle with menopause due to cultural taboos and social stigma, making their experiences invisible and lowering their quality of life. The aim of this study was to explore in-depth the knowledge, attitudes, and experiences of middle-aged Saudi women with menopause.

Traditional activated sludge-based technologies have significant drawbacks, including high energy requirements and greenhouse gas emissions. Microalgae-based processes offer a promising, low-cost, and environmentally friendly alternative. However, the knowledge of treatment systems based on microalgae-bacteria consortia is limited, and even more so is their microbial composition and its relationship with operational parameters.

Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) has been a primary method in menopausal women and patients with ablated ovaries, but safety has been a concern. Cell-based HRT has emerged as an alternative approach without side effects causing pharmaceutical HRT via 3-dimensionally engineered constructs layering ovarian hormone-producing cells. In this study, we applied micro-sized ovarian cell-laden hydrogel beads as an approach to cell-based HRT using a minimally invasive method in the menopausal rat model.
