In recent years, the introduction of mRNA vaccines for SARS-CoV2 and RSV has highlighted the success of the mRNA technology platform. Designing mRNA sequences involves multiple components and requires balancing several parameters, including enhancing transcriptional efficiency, boosting antigenicity, and minimizing immunogenicity. Moreover, changes in the composition and properties of delivery vehicles can also affect vaccine performance.

Messenger RNA (mRNA) therapeutics have garnered considerable attention due to their remarkable efficacy in the treatment of various diseases. The COVID-19 mRNA vaccine and RSV mRNA vaccine have been approved on the market. Due to the inherent nuclease-instability and negative charge of mRNA, delivery systems are developed to protect the mRNA from degradation and facilitate its crossing cell membrane to express functional proteins or peptides in the cytoplasm.

Background: The aim of this study is to explore the mediation effect of family support on the relationship between SES and postpartum depressive symptoms.

Methods: A total of 1887 mothers of newborn babies under 6 months of age in selected community health service centers in Shanghai were included in the analysis. A multi-stage probability sampling method was applied to select the sample.

The maintenance of genomic integrity in rapidly proliferating cells is a substantial challenge during embryonic development. Although numerous cell-intrinsic mechanisms have been revealed, little is known about genome-protective effects and influences of developmental tissue microenvironments on tissue-forming cells. Here we show that fetal liver hepatocytes provide protection to haematopoietic stem and progenitor cell (HSPC) genomes.

The regulation of chromatin structure and gene transcription in eukaryotic cells is an involved process mediated by histone modifications, chromatin-binding proteins, and transcription factors. Studying the distribution of histone modifications and transcription factors at the whole-genome level is crucial for understanding the mechanisms of gene transcription. Cleavage under targets and tagmentation (CUT&Tag) is a novel chromatin analysis method that has rapidly gained popularity in the field of epigenetics since its introduction.

This study explores the effect of the transformation of paediatric healthcare through the implementation of the Family Mutual Aid System (FMAS) for personal medical insurance accounts among paediatric patients at a children's hospital (Hospital A in Shanghai, China). We conducted a cohort study in the endocrinology department of Hospital A from August 2021 to July 2023 to assess the impact of FMAS enrolment on patients' annual outpatient visits, annual outpatient expenditures, and the allocation of these costs among the basic medical insurance pooling fund and patients' out-of-pocket expenses, with a further subdivision into online and offline consultations. Analysis employed a weighted difference-in-differences approach within a fixed-effects model following propensity score matching.

The minichromosome maintenance complex (MCM) DNA helicase is an important replicative factor during DNA replication. The proper chromatin loading of MCM is a key step to ensure replication initiation during S phase. Because replication initiation is regulated by multiple biological cues, additional changes to MCM may provide better understanding towards this event.

During the development of eukaryote, faithful inheritance of chromatin states is central to the maintenance of cell fate. DNA replication poses a significant challenge for chromatin state inheritance because every nucleosome in the genome is disrupted as the replication fork passes. It has been found that many factors including DNA polymerases, histone chaperones, as well as, RNA Pol II and histone modifying enzymes coordinate spatially and temporally to maintain the epigenome during this progress.

Article Synopsis
  • The study examines how extreme climate events influence forest pests and diseases in China, focusing on the relationship between climate fluctuations and pest dynamics over recent decades.
  • Results show that while the frequency of certain climate disasters has decreased, forest pests, particularly in the southwestern regions, have actually increased.
  • Key climate factors like the Multivariate ENSO index and Sunspot activity significantly correlate with pest occurrences, with notable cycles of 2-4 years being the main variation period for disasters in various regions of China.

The proximity-effect, whereby materials in contact appropriate each other's electronic-properties, is widely used to induce correlated states, such as superconductivity or magnetism, at heterostructure interfaces. Thus far however, demonstrating the existence of proximity-induced charge-density-waves (PI-CDW) proved challenging. This is due to competing effects, such as screening or co-tunneling into the parent material, that obscured its presence.

Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is recognized as a crucial contributor to the progression of traumatic brain injury (TBI) and represents a potential target for therapeutic intervention. This study aimed to assess the potential of J147, a novel neurotrophic compound, in alleviating ER stress by modulating related signaling pathways, thereby promoting functional recovery in TBI. To this end, adult mice underwent controlled cortical impact (CCI) injury to induce TBI, followed by oral administration of J147 one-hour post-injury, with daily dosing for 3 to 7 days.

One of the daunting challenges in modern low temperature scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) is the difficulty of combining atomic resolution with cryogen-free cooling. Further functionality needs, such as ultra-high vacuum (UHV), high magnetic field (HF), and compatibility with μm-sized samples, pose additional challenges to an already ambitious build. We present the design, construction, and performance of a cryogen-free, UHV, low temperature, and high magnetic field system for modular STM operation.

Article Synopsis
  • Chromatin fibers are organized hierarchically, with the 30-nm fibers serving as a key structure that helps regulate gene expression and maintains a dormant state for transcription.
  • The study presents a detailed structure of the chromatin fiber, specifically the H5-bound dodecanucleosome, revealing a double helical arrangement and how linker histone H5 interacts with nucleosomes.
  • The research also investigates the interactions within tetranucleosomal units and identifies structural asymmetries in histone tails that influence the overall organization of chromatin both in lab settings (in vitro) and in living organisms (in vivo).

  • - This study employs theoretical modeling, finite element simulations, and experiments to understand how a stagnant region forms during mechanical scratching with a diamond wedge tool.
  • - A theoretical model relating to the contact friction and slip-line field theory is developed to identify key geometric parameters of the stagnant region, which is affected by the tool's design and excessive material extrusion.
  • - Experimental results show that the stagnant region displays unique microstructural characteristics and surface properties, with findings suggesting that specific scratching parameters significantly influence its evolution.
