Evaluation of the digestion protocol of mouse neonatal epidermis for single-cell RNA sequencing.

The skin is primarily composed of keratinocytes and forms an effective barrier between the organism and external environment. Neonatal skin analysis is essential for understanding developmental processes and rare skin diseases. However, efficient single-cell dissociation methods for the neonatal mouse epidermis remain underexplored.

Segmentation of the general public according to differences in knowledge and beliefs about radiation-cluster analysis by attitude, knowledge, belief and anxiety.

Following the 2011 Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident, public behaviors have been marked by excessive avoidance and stigma, driven by fear and uncertainty regarding radiation exposure and its health implications. Despite extensive media dissemination of information on radiation, the precise nature of the public's knowledge, beliefs and the resultant behavioral responses remain unclear. This study aimed to segment the population based on their attitudes, knowledge, beliefs and anxiety levels about radiation, correlating these factors with their cognitive and behavioral responses to radiation exposure.

Long-Range Halogen Dance Reaction in 4,5-Dihalogeno-2-(Sulfur-Containing Heterocyclyl)thiazole.

We have investigated the base-induced long-range halogen dance reactions of 4,5-dibromo- or 4-bromo-5-iodothiazoles bearing sulfur-containing aromatic heterocycles at the C2-position. We have found that the reaction occurs in bithiazole regioisomers or (thiophenyl)thiazole derivatives, in which the C-5 halo group on the thiazole halogen donor regioselectively migrates to a halogen acceptor ring after treatment with lithium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide. The substrate with a thiophen-2-yl substituent required highly basic P4-t-Bu to induce the halogen dance reaction.

Clonal Hematopoiesis in Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension.

Background: The cause of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) remains largely unknown. Recently, clonal hematopoiesis (CH) has been reported to be associated with cardiovascular and thromboembolic diseases. Here, we investigated the prevalence and clinical impact of CH in patients with CTEPH.
