Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) and porcine rotavirus (PoRV) are the two main pathogens causing porcine diarrhea, which are characterized by high morbidity and mortality. Most of the diagnostic methods available are limited to the laboratory or fail to highlight their advantages in terms of target species, detection time, sensitivity, and stability. To meet the demand for rapid on-site diagnosis of PEDV and PoRV co-infection, a surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) immunochromatographic sensor based on gold magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) was developed.

MYB transcription factors exert crucial functions in enhancing plant stress tolerance, which is impacted by soil drought and salinity. In our study, the R2R3-type MYB transcription factor gene LcMYB5 from blue honeysuckle (Lonicera caerulea L.) was successfully cloned and identified, and confirmed its nuclear localization.

Background: Ruxolitinib cream, a topical Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor, is a widely used treatment for various dermatological diseases. This study employs the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database to examine adverse events (AEs) associated with ruxolitinib cream.

Methods: This study employed disproportionate analysis methods, including reported odds ratio and proportional reporting ratio, to collate AEs reported from the fourth quarter of 2021 to the first quarter of 2024.
