Introduction Tree shrews (Tupaia belangeri) have emerged as a valuable translational model in scientific research, bridging the gap between rodent and non-human primate models and exhibit a closer genetic affinity to primates than to rodents. The thymus is crucial for T-cell development, requiring precise organization to regulate T lymphocyte maturation and selection through various signaling pathways.

Introduction Sarcopenia, a geriatric syndrome marked by progressive and generalized loss of skeletal muscle mass and function, arises from a complex, multifactorial pathogenesis that encompasses anabolic resistance, mitochondrial dysfunction, and chronic inflammation, yet its precise etiology remains incompletely delineated.1 Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN), the most prevalent chronic complication of diabetes, affects up to 50% of diabetic patients.2 Intriguingly, our study revealed a...

Sarcopenia, significantly influenced by diabetes mellitus, is characterized by muscle atrophy, muscle strength, and function decline. (1) Diabetic sarcopenia (DS), considered as a complication of diabetes, leads to an increased risk of falls, fractures, physical disabilities, and even mortality. The condition severely impacts the quality of life for those diabetic patients and escalates the economic burden on the country, society, and families.
