Danggui Buxue Decoction Regulates Autophagy to Improve Renal Fibrosis in diabetes through miR-27a /PI3K/AKT pathway.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Danggui Buxue Decoction (DBD) is a classic traditional Chinese herbal formulation, composed of Astragali Radix (AR) and Angelica Sinensis Radix (ASR) in a ratio of 5:1. It is a traditional Chinese medicine classic prescription for nourishing Qi and Yin (vital energy and body fluids), and it is effective in treating various clinical diseases. Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is categorized under "thirsting," "edema," and "turbid urine" in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM).

5-Methylcytosine-modified circRNA-CCNL2 regulates vascular remdeling in hypoxic pulmonary hypertension through binding to FXR2.

Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a malignant cardiovascular disease with a complex etiology. 5-Methylcytosine (m5C) is a post-transcriptional RNA modification identified in both stable and highly abundant RNAs, with a lower frequency of occurrence in circular RNAs (circRNAs). Nevertheless, the function of m5C-modified circRNAs in the pathogenesis of PH remains uncertain.

CO driven tunable syngas synthesis via CO photoreduction using a novel NiCo bimetallic metal-organic frameworks.

Syngas has important industrial applications, and converting CO to CO is critical for syngas production. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have demonstrated significant potential in photocatalytic syngas conversion, although the impact of catalytic reactions on tunable H/CO ratios remains unclear. Herein, we present a novel bimetallic NiCo-MOF catalyst, NiCo, exhibiting high catalytic activity in syngas conversion due to the CO product self-driven effect.

Mitochondrial Porin Is Required for Versatile Biocontrol Trait-Involved Biological Processes in a Filamentous Insect Pathogenic Fungus.

The mitochondrial voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC) is the major channel in the mitochondrial outer membrane for metabolites and ions. VDACs also regulate a variety of biological processes, which vary in the number of VDAC isoforms across different eukaryotes. However, little is known about VDAC-mediated biocontrol traits in biocontrol fungi.

Design and Testing of MEMS Component for Electromagnetic Pulse Protection.

With the demand for high-safety, high-integration, and lightweight micro- and nano-electronic components, an MEMS electromagnetic energy-releasing component was innovatively designed based on the corona discharge theory. The device subverted the traditional device-level protection method for electromagnetic energy, realizing the innovation of adding a complex circuit system to the integrated chip through micro-nanometer processing technology and enhancing the chip's size from the centimeter level to the micron level. In this paper, the working performance of the MEMS electromagnetic energy-releasing component was verified through a combination of a simulation, a static experiment, and a dynamic test, and a characterization test of the tested MEMS electromagnetic energy-releasing component was carried out to thoroughly analyze the effect of the MEMS electromagnetic energy-releasing component.
