Fasting reduces chemotherapy toxicity, enhances immunogenic tumor cell death and increases CD8+ T cell infiltration in tumors, particularly when combined with chemotherapy or immunotherapy. Moreover, fasting exhibits a sexual dimorphism in the immune system . The aim of our study was to elucidate the role of sex in the beneficial anti‐tumoral effects of combining fasting and

Pathological vascular remodeling is the underlying cause of atherosclerosis and abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). Here, we analyzed the role of galectin-1 (Gal-1), a -galactoside–binding protein, as a therapeutic target for atherosclerosis and AAA. Mice lacking Gal-1 (Lgals1−/−) developed severe atherosclerosis induced by pAAV/D377Y-mPCSK9 adenovirus and displayed higher lipid levels and lower expression of contractile markers

Background: The goal of this study was to determine whether boosting mitochondrial respiration prevents the development of fatal aortic ruptures triggered by atherosclerosis and hypertension. Methods: Ang-II (angiotensin-II) was infused in ApoE (Apolipoprotein E)-deficient mice fed with a western diet to induce acute aortic aneurysms and lethal ruptures. Results: We found decreased mitochondrial respiration and
