Abstract (original English)

In this issue, a special section is dedicated to the factors affecting senescence. It examines the interplay between immunosenescence and chronic kidney disease, probes into Peto's paradox, and explores how epigenetic switches can potentially mitigate senescence and inflammation. Additionally, insights are offered on understanding a specific Ras mechanism in yeast for potential therapeutic interventions against cancer and for longevity. Furthermore, the remarkable endurance of last year's Nobel Prize winner in Physiology or Medicine is also highlighted. Moreover, the discovery of potential biomarkers for hepatocellular carcinoma, the link between osteoarthritis and the circadian clock, and the multifaceted role of DNAJA3 in B cell lifecycle are discussed. Further, study findings shed light on the influence of extracellular matrix molecules on cleft palate formation, the renal protective effects of combination therapy in diabetic kidney disease, and novel approaches to detect developmental dysplasia of the hip. Finally, a correspondence delves into the role of autonomic regulation in cognitive decline.
