Mechanism of DYRK1a in myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury by regulating ferroptosis of cardiomyocytes.

This study aimed to explore the role and mechanism of DYRK1a regulating ferroptosis of cardiomyocytes during myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI). H9c2 cells treated with oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R) were used as MIRI cell models and transfected with sh-DYRK1a or/and erastin. Cell viability, apoptosis, and DYRK1a mRNA/protein expression were measured accordingly.

HAND2-AS1 associates with outcomes of acute coronary syndrome and regulates cell viability of vascular endothelial cells.

Objective: Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is an emergency and severe disorder of the cardiovascular system. This paper assessed the expression of plasma HAND2-AS1 in patients with ACS, researched its diagnostic and prognostic significance, and studied its possible mechanism for participating in ACS.

Methods: The concentration of HAND2-AS1 of 101 included patients with ACS was certified by qRT-PCR and its possible diagnostic function was revealed by the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.

[Inhibitory effect and mechanism of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells on inflammation in rats with multiple organ dysfunction syndrome].

Objective To observe the anti-inflammatory effect and mechanism of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (BMSC) on multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) rats. Methods SD rats were randomly divided into control group, model group and BMSC group, with 10 rats in each group. Rats in model group and BMSC group were intraperitoneally injected with 7 mg/kg lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to establish MODS models.

Pathogens distribution and drug resistance in patients with acute cerebral infarction complicated with diabetes and nosocomial pulmonary infection.

Background: This study aims to investigate the pathogen distribution and drug resistance in patients with acute cerebral infarction complicated with diabetes mellitus and nosocomial pulmonary infection.

Methods: From August 2015 to December 2017, 172 pathogenic bacterial strains from patients with acute cerebral infarction complicated with diabetes mellitus and nosocomial pulmonary infection in our hospital were identified, and the drug sensitivity was analyzed.

Results: Among these 172 strains of pathogenic bacteria, gram negative bacteria was the main cause of pulmonary infection in hospitalized patients with acute cerebral infarction, accounting for 75.

Clg2p interacts with Clf and ClUrase to regulate appressorium formation, pathogenicity and conidial morphology in Curvularia lunata.

Ras is a small GTPase that regulates numerous processes in the cellular development and morphogenesis of many organisms. In this study, we identified and functionally characterized the Clg2p gene of Curvularia lunata, which is homologous with the Ras protein. The Clg2p deletion mutant (ΔClg2p) had altered appressorium formation and conidial morphology and produced fewer, smaller lesions compared with the wild-type strain.
