In a review article published in the journal Nature Reviews Cardiology, the authors provide a detailed overview of the global burden of heart failure, including the incidence and prevalence of heart failure, disease etiology, risk factors, and disease outcomes across geographical regions and populations.
The scalable synthesis of withanolides means that scientists can now produce these compounds in larger amounts, facilitating new research and accelerating the development of withanolide-based cancer treatments.
"We arrive at a solution of the high-resolution complex field in a closed-form fashion, as we now have a deeper understanding in what a microscope captures, what we already know, and what we need to truly figure out, so we don't need any iteration," says Ruizhi Cao (PhD '24), co-lead author on the paper, a former graduate student in Yang's lab, and now a postdoctoral scholar at UC Berkeley.
With the advent of new-generation information technologies such as artificial intelligence, big data and cloud computing, along with the support of government policies, the application scope of smart healthcare continues to expand.
"The neural circuit in the Alzheimer's disease animal model cannot release sufficient serotonin into the vCA1 region that would need to bind to its receptor in the downstream neurons to signal the changes required to consolidate a memory," Xu said.
"Other consequences may include caregivers' lower retirement savings or limited ability to send their children to college," said project advisor Maria Aranda, a professor at the USC Suzanne Dworak-Peck School of Social Work who studies the impact of Alzheimer's on Black and Latino families.
The new guidance, which will be implemented across every hospital and research institute in Europe that works with patients with bone cancer, are ultimately aimed at moving treatment away from untargeted chemotherapy and more towards precision medicine.

The research team identified a protein called colony stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF1R) as a reliable marker for monocytes and dendritic cells in blood and macrophages in tissues – allowing for the clear identification and separation of different sample types.
By the time of Hermida’s diagnosis, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services was about three years into a federal initiative to end the nation’s HIV epidemic by pumping hundreds of millions of dollars annually into certain states, counties, and U.S. territories with the highest infection rates.
