AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
This essay shows that the development of nephrology in recent years has been basically in dialysis and kidney transplantation, but access to the entire population that requires it is insufficient and limited, which is a universal phenomenon. In addition, the fragmentation of the specialty into other subspecialities has been generated. Among other reasons that prevent decision makers from deciding to expand tertiary nephrology care to a larger population, 12 intrinsic factors and four extrinsic factors are identified, together with limited resources dedicated to research; therefore, national societies of nephrology are encouraged to act and try to modify those factors that are obstacles to the development of the specialty and the expansion of nephrological care.

Motivators and Barriers to Seeking Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery Among Adolescents: A Qualitative Study.
Obes Sci Pract
February 2025
Background: The prevalence of severe obesity among adolescents has increased the use of metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) as a therapeutic option. Understanding factors influencing adolescent MBS choice and the support needed to undergo MBS is crucial for improving health outcomes. This study examines the motivations and support needs of a diverse sample of adolescents seeking MBS via the patient voice.

The rapid advance of large-scale atlas-level single cell RNA sequences and single-cell chromatin accessibility data provide extraordinary avenues to broad and deep insight into complex biological mechanism. Leveraging the datasets and transfering labels from scRNA-seq to scATAC-seq will empower the exploration of single-cell omics data. However, the current label transfer methods have limited performance, largely due to the lower capable of preserving fine-grained cell populations and intrinsic or extrinsic heterogeneity between datasets.

Breast cancer remission after treatment is sometimes long-lasting, but in about 30% of cases, there is a relapse after a so-called dormant state. Cellular cancer dormancy, the propensity of disseminated tumor cells (DTCs) to remain in a nonproliferative state for an extended period, presents an opportunity for therapeutic intervention that may prevent reawakening and the lethal consequences of metastatic outgrowth. Therefore, identification of dormant DTCs and detailed characterization of cancer cell-intrinsic and niche-specific [i.

RANK pathway has attracted increasing interest as a promising target in breast cancer, given the availability of denosumab, an anti-RANKL drug. RANK signaling mediates progesterone-driven regulation of mammary gland development and favors breast cancer initiation by controlling mammary cell proliferation and stem cell fate. RANK activation promotes luminal mammary epithelial cell senescence, acting as an initial barrier to tumorigenesis but ultimately facilitating tumor progression and metastasis.

Both intrinsic and extrinsic mechanisms underpin the profound intertumoral heterogeneity in breast cancer. Increasing evidence suggests that the intrinsic characteristics of breast epithelial precursor cells may influence tumour phenotype. These "cells-of-origin" of cancer preside in normal breast tissue and are uniquely susceptible to mutagenesis upon exposure to distinct oncogenic stimuli.
