September 2024
Article Synopsis
- - The ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) is crucial for cell regulation, impacting processes like cell signaling and determining cell fate by managing protein degradation through ubiquitination and deubiquitination.
- - This review focuses on the UPS's involvement in fibrotic diseases, highlighting how imbalances in UPS component expression can influence the fibrosis process.
- - The article specifically examines the UPS's role in renal fibrosis, detailing how it affects various biological processes—like inflammation and oxidative stress—and suggests that further research could lead to new prevention strategies for renal fibrosis.
Background: Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) is a severe traumatic event for women of childbearing age. However, the association between RPL and female sexual dysfunction was unknown.
Aim: The study sought to investigate the association between RPL and sexual dysfunction, and to explore the risk factors of sexual dysfunction for RPL patients.
Article Synopsis
- - This study investigates how body mass index (BMI) affects bone turnover markers in girls with idiopathic central precocious puberty (ICPP), focusing on their weight status at diagnosis.
- - Three groups were formed based on weight status: normal weight, overweight, and obese. Results showed significant differences in serum propeptide levels among these groups, with BMI being inversely related to bone formation markers.
- - The conclusions highlight that higher BMI is linked to reduced bone formation in overweight and obese girls with ICPP, suggesting that monitoring body weight and bone health is crucial during their diagnosis and treatment.
Objective: To establish serological biomarker models composed of bone turnover markers (BTMs), vitamin D (Vit D), and estradiol (E2) and to explore their auxiliary diagnostic value in girls with idiopathic central precocious puberty (ICPP).
Methods: Ninety-three girls with ICPP and 93 healthy girls were included in the ICPP group and the control group, respectively. The serum levels of total procollagen type 1 N-terminal propeptide (P1NP), N-terminal midfragment of osteocalcin (N-MID), β-C-terminal telopeptide of type 1 collagen (β-CTX), Vit D, E2, and other biochemical parameters were detected in all participants.
The central flower integrator PsSOC1 was isolated and its expression profiles were analyzed; then the potential function of PsSOC1 in tree peony was postulated. The six flowering genes PrSOC1, PdSOC1, PsSOC1, PsSOC1-1, PsSOC1-2, and PsSOC1-3 were isolated from Paeonia rockii, Paeonia delavayi, and Paeonia suffruticosa, respectively. Sequence comparison analysis showed that the six genes were highly conserved and shared 99.

Methods: The levels of iodine in drinking water, edible salt of household and urine of school-age children and child-beard age women were investigated at four villages A, B, C and D which iodine concentrations of 50-100, 100-150, 150-300 and more than 300microg/L. The results of iodine in water, edible salt, urine and thyroid goiter were observed before stopping iodized salt.
