Alcohol consumption is believed to affect Alzheimer's disease (AD) risk, but the contributing mechanisms are not well understood. A potential mediator of the proposed alcohol-AD connection is autophagy, a degradation pathway that maintains organelle and protein homeostasis. Autophagy is regulated through the activity of Transcription factor EB (TFEB), which promotes lysosome and autophagy-related gene expression.

Purpose: The vocal folds (VFs) are among the most mechanically active connective tissues, vibrating between 80 and 250 hz during speech. Overall VF function is determined by the composition and structure of their extracellular matrix (ECM). During tissue maturation, the VFs remodel from a monolayer of collagen fibers to a tri-layered structure, affecting tissue biomechanics.

The present knowledge on hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell (HSPC) biology and aging is based largely on studies in mouse models. Although mouse models are invaluable, they are not without limitations for defining how physical properties of HSPCs and their niche change with age. The bone marrow (BM) niche is a complex, interactive environment with multiple cell types.

Semi-feral, free-roaming Konik polski horses are used in some European countries for preserving semi-open pasture landscapes. The estimation of their health status is still limited by insufficient data on various blood parameters. Therefore, our study aimed at the sex- and age-dependent analysis of haemogram and selected biochemistry parameters in healthy, semi-feral Koniks.

It is of critical importance to our understanding of Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology to determine how key pathological factors are interconnected and implicated in nerve cell death, clinical symptoms, and disease progression. The formation of extracellular beta-amyloid (Aβ) plaques is the major pathological hallmark of AD and Aβ has been suggested to be a critical inducer of AD, driving disease pathogenesis. Exactly how Aβ plaque formation begins and how ongoing plaque deposition proceeds and initiates subsequent neurotoxic mechanisms is not well understood.
