However, the specific mechanisms by which hype…
Open article record in new tab ↗Synthetic cannabinoids, particularly 5F-MDMB-PICA, have emerged as potent psychoactive substances, exhibiting a binding affinity to the CB1 receptor approximately 380 times greater than that of Δ9-THC, the principal psychoactive compound in cannabis.

Background: Kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) have an increased risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD) and cerebrovascular disease (CBD). This study investigated the risks of CVD and CBD following kidney transplantation. Materials and methods: This retrospective cohort study enrolled 3596 KTRs between 2003 and 2017. Propensity Score Matching (PSM) was performed to select patients without a kidney transplant, who…
The inhibitor of DNA binding (Id) proteins are regulators of cell cycle and cell differentiation. Of all Id family proteins, Id1 is mostly linked to tumorigenesis, cellular senescence as well as cell proliferation and survival. Id1 is a stem cell-like gene more than a classical oncogene. Id1 is overexpressed in numerous types of cancers and exerts its promotion effect to these tumors through different pathways. Br…
