This study aimed to classify cancers based on molecular characteristics to determine those in which SIRT5 displays beneficial effects versus those in which it displays harmful effects. Additionally, the feasibility of employing this protein as a therapeutic target, whether through activation or inhibition...
These microorganisms play a vital role in breaking down food, absorbing nutrients, and keeping harmful bacteria in check.

Infections by viruses including severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 could cause organ inflammations such as myocarditis, pneumonia and encephalitis. Innate immunity to viral nucleic acids mediates antiviral immunity as well as inflammatory or
Liver mitochondria are frequently exposed to harmful materials such as reactive species and adducts from food and drug metabolism. Therefore, maintaining functional mitochondria under stressful environment will be a key to the long-term preservation of liver function. Mitohormesis is a re-equilibration pr...
