Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most prevalent and deadly malignancies worldwide. Recently, ferroptosis, a novel form of regulated cell death characterized by iron dependency and lipid peroxidation, has garnered significant attention from researchers. The mechanisms underlying ferroptosis, including intracellular iron levels, lipid peroxidation, and antioxidant system regulation, offer new insights into cancer treatment strategies.

Background: Leukocytes play an important role in inflammatory response after a traumatic brain injury (TBI). We designed this study to identify TBI phenotypes by clustering blood levels of various leukocytes.
Methods: TBI patients from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care-III (MIMIC-III) database were included.

Background: Macrophages play a dual role in the tumor microenvironment(TME), capable of secreting pro-inflammatory factors to combat tumors while also promoting tumor growth through angiogenesis and immune suppression. This study aims to explore the characteristics of macrophages in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) and establish a prognostic model based on macrophage-related genes.
Method: We performed scRNA-seq analysis to investigate macrophage heterogeneity and their potential pseudotime evolutionary processes.

CCL2, a pivotal cytokine within the chemokine family, functions by binding to its receptor CCR2. The CCL2/CCR2 signaling pathway plays a crucial role in the development of fibrosis across multiple organ systems by modulating the recruitment and activation of immune cells, which in turn influences the progression of fibrotic diseases in the liver, intestines, pancreas, heart, lungs, kidneys, and other organs. This paper introduces the biological functions of CCL2 and CCR2, highlighting their similarities and differences concerning fibrotic disorders in various organ systems, and reviews recent progress in the diagnosis and treatment of clinical fibrotic diseases linked to the CCL2/CCR2 signaling pathway.

Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most prevalent causes of cancer-related morbidity and mortality worldwide. Late-stage detection and the complex molecular mechanisms driving tumor progression contribute significantly to its poor prognosis. Dysregulated R-loops, three-stranded nucleic acid structures associated with genome instability, play a key role in the malignant characteristics of various tumors.
