Comprehensive Analysis of : Inorganic Elements, Amino Acids, and Bioactive Compounds and Their Anticancer, Antioxidant, and Neuroprotective Properties.

The Compendium of Materia Medica highlights the therapeutic properties of (). In this study, the species and content of volatile components, inorganic elements, and amino acids were measured, and the activity of crude extracts of ethanol and water was studied. GC-MS analysis revealed 37-53 components across different life stages, excluding excessive heavy metals and containing essential trace elements.

Drug Advances in NAFLD: Individual and Combination Treatment Strategies of Natural Products and Small-Synthetic-Molecule Drugs.

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has become the most common chronic liver disease and is closely associated with metabolic diseases such as obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and metabolic syndrome. However, effective treatment strategies for NAFLD are still lacking. In recent years, progress has been made in understanding the pathogenesis of NAFLD, identifying multiple therapeutic targets and providing new directions for drug development.

Genome Sequencing Reveals the Adaptation of Chickens to High Altitudes in Different Regions.

Altitudinal adaptation is a key factor in species formation and leads to increased species diversity. Chickens are one of the most widely distributed and important domesticated species, making them ideal models for studying the evolution of altitudinal adaptation. Therefore, we downloaded and analyzed the total genome data of 160 individual chickens from seven sampling regions at two different altitudes (>3000 m and <600 m).

Genome-Wide Genomic Analysis and Evolutionary Insights into Bovine Coronavirus Strains in Southwest China.

The global epidemic of bovine coronavirus (BCoV) has caused enormous economic losses. The characterisation and genetic composition of endemic strains in Southwest China remain elusive. This study aimed to fill this gap by isolating three BCoV strains from this region and sequencing their whole genomes.

Enhanced mRNA delivery via incorporating hydrophobic amines into lipid nanoparticles.

Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) have shown promising performance in mRNA delivery. Nevertheless, a thorough understanding of the relationship between mRNA delivery efficacy and the structure of LNPs remains imperative. In this study, we systematically investigated the effects of additional hydrophobic amines on the physicochemical properties of mRNA LNPs and their delivery efficacy.
