Open AccessBilateral gene therapy in children with autosomal recessive deafness 9: single-arm trial results
Gene therapy is a promising approach for hereditary deafness. We recently showed that unilateral AAV1-hOTOF gene therapy with dual adeno-associated virus (AAV) serotype 1 carrying human OTOF transgene is safe and...

Cross-ancestry genome-wide association studies of brain imaging phenotypes
Genome-wide association studies of brain imaging phenotypes are mainly performed in European populations, but other populations are severely under-represented. Here, we conducted Chinese-alone and cross-ancest...

Proteomics analysis of histone deacetylase inhibitor-resistant solid tumors reveals resistant signatures and potential drug combinations
Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACis) are important drugs for cancer therapy, but the indistinct resistant mechanisms of solid tumor therapy greatly limit their clinical application. In this study we conduct...

Open AccessRole of gut microbiota in doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity: from pathogenesis to related interventions
Doxorubicin (DOX) is a broad-spectrum and highly efficient anticancer agent, but its clinical implication is limited by lethal cardiotoxicity. Growing evidences have shown that alterations in intestinal microb...

Phenethyl isothiocyanate inhibits metastasis potential of non-small cell lung cancer cells through FTO mediated TLE1 m6A modification
N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification is a prevalent RNA epigenetic modification, which plays a crucial role in tumor progression including metastasis. Isothiocyanates (ITCs) are natural compounds and inhibit the...

Role of thrombospondin-1 in high-salt–induced mesenteric artery endothelial impairment in rats
The matrix glycoprotein thrombospondin-1 (THBS1) modulates nitric oxide (NO) signaling in endothelial cells. A high-salt diet induces deficiencies of NO production and bioavailability, thereby leading to endot...

Open AccessPreoperative supine time for adrenal venous sampling: a prospective randomized controlled trial
Primary aldosteronism (P.A.) is the most common form of secondary hypertension, accounting for 5% of hypertensive patients and 17–23% of patients with resistant hypertension. Compared to primary hypertension, ...

Open AccessRegulation of CD8+ T memory and exhaustion by the mTOR signals
CD8+ T cells are the key executioners of the adaptive immune arm, which mediates antitumor and antiviral immunity. Naïve CD8+ T cells develop in the thymus and are quickly activated in the periphery after encount...

Themis suppresses the effector function of CD8+ T cells in acute viral infection
CD8+ T cells play a central role in antiviral immune responses. Upon infection, naive CD8+ T cells differentiate into effector cells to eliminate virus-infected cells, and some of these effector cells further dif...
