Integrated analysis of bulk transcriptomics and single-cell transcriptomics revealed the association characteristics between heart failure and β-hydroxybutyrylation-related genes

Background As a major cause of global mortality, heart failure (HF) has mechanisms that remain elusive. Recent studies suggest β-hydroxybutyrylation (Kbhb) may contribute to its pathogenesis, driving this investigation into Kbhb-associated HF biomarkers. Methods We collected HF-a...

DMH glutamatergic and GABAergic neurons differentially regulate post-anesthesia sleep disturbance through CB1R signaling

Abstract Purpose Post-operative sleep disturbance affects more than 60% of surgical patients and impedes recovery. Although general anesthesia itself may profoundly remodel brain function and contribute to this pathology, the underlying neural mechanisms remain unclear. We previo...
