Salmonella is a common foodborne zoonotic pathogen that poses a great threat to human health and breeding industry. The rapid detection of Salmonella is necessary for early prevention and control. In this study, a subtractive inhibition assay (SIA) based on surface plasmon resonance (SPR) for the rapid detection of Salmonella was developed.

This study aims to analyze the role of X-inactive specific transcript (XIST), a possible interactive long non-coding RNA of EZH2, in UC and to explore the mechanisms.
Methods: C57BL/6N mice were treated with dextran sulfate sodium (DSS), and mouse colonic mucosal epithelial cells were treated with DSS and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) for UC modeling.
The inflammasome is a pivotal component of the innate immune system, acting as a multiprotein complex that plays an essential role in detecting and responding to microbial infections. Enteritidis have evolved multiple mechanisms to regulate inflammasome activation and evade host immune system clearance. Through screening .

Methods: A total of 145 patients with CRC diagnosed by pathology and admitted to our hospital for surgery between June 2020 and June 2022 were included in the study. All patients were divided into two groups: the triple-modal pre-rehabilitation group (pre-rehabilitation group) and the common treatment group.
High-value metabolites, such as carotenoids, lipids, and proteins, are synthesized by microalgae and find applications in various fields, including food, health supplements, and cosmetics. However, the potential of the microalgal industry to serve these sectors is constrained by low productivity and high energy consumption. Environmental stressors can not only stimulate the accumulation of secondary metabolites in microalgae but also induce oxidative stress, suppressing cell growth and activity, thereby resulting in a decrease in overall productivity.

Salmonella has developed multiple strategies to avoid or delay inflammasome activation, which may be required for long-term bacterial persistence. However, the mechanisms by which Salmonella evades host immune defenses are still not well understood.

Salmonella enterica serovar Pullorum uses IpaJ to inhibit the NF-κB pathway and the subsequent inflammatory response, resulting in bacterial survival in host macrophages. In the present study, we performed a DNA pull-down assay and EMSA and identified ItrA, a new DeoR family transcriptional regulator that could control the expression of IpaJ by directly binding to the promoter of ipaJ.
