Integrated Microbiome and Metabolome Analysis Reveals Correlations Between Gut Microbiota Components and Metabolic Profiles in Mice With Mitoxantrone-Induced Cardiotoxicity.

Purpose: Mitoxantrone (MTX) is largely restricted in clinical usage due to its significant cardiotoxicity. Multiple studies have shown that an imbalance in the gut-heart axis plays an important role in the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD). We aim to explore the possible correlations between gut microbiota (GM) compositions and cardiometabolic (CM) disorder in MTX-triggered cardiotoxicity mice.

Clinical outcomes and safety of CAR-T cells in treatment of T-Cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma.

Relapsed or refractory T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma (r/r T-ALL/LBL) are frequently aggressive and associated with unfavorable prognoses. Pan-targeted Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy have shown promising results in clinical trials. In recent years, CD7 CAR T-cell and CD5 CAR T-cell demonstrate effectiveness in treating r/r T-ALL/LBL patients with bone marrow infiltration.

Global research trends in CAR-T cell therapy for solid tumors: A comprehensive visualization and bibliometric study (2012-2023).

CAR-T cell therapy has emerged as a significant approach for the management of hematological malignancies. Over the past few years, the utilization of CAR-T cells in the investigation and treatment of solid tumors has gained momentum, thereby establishing itself as a prominent area of research. This descriptive study involved the retrieval of articles about CAR-T cell therapy for solid tumors from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) database.

Palmprint Phenotype Feature Extraction and Classification Based on Deep Learning.

Palmprints are of long practical and cultural interest. Palmprint principal lines, also called primary palmar lines, are one of the most dominant palmprint features and do not change over the lifespan. The existing methods utilize filters and edge detection operators to get the principal lines from the palm region of interest (ROI), but can not distinguish the principal lines from fine wrinkles.

Effect of regeneration method and ash deposition on diesel particulate filter performance: a review.

As countries around the world pay more attention to environmental protection, the corresponding emission regulations have become more stringent. Exhaust pollutants cause great harm to the environment and people, and diesel engines are one of the most important sources of pollution. Diesel particulate filter (DPF) technology has proven to be the most effective way to control and treat soot.

Limb development genes underlie variation in human fingerprint patterns.

Fingerprints are of long-standing practical and cultural interest, but little is known about the mechanisms that underlie their variation. Using genome-wide scans in Han Chinese cohorts, we identified 18 loci associated with fingerprint type across the digits, including a genetic basis for the long-recognized "pattern-block" correlations among the middle three digits. In particular, we identified a variant near EVI1 that alters regulatory activity and established a role for EVI1 in dermatoglyph patterning in mice.

Identification of DNA methylation prognostic signature of acute myelocytic leukemia.

Background: The aim of this study is to find the potential survival related DNA methylation signature capable of predicting survival time for acute myelocytic leukemia (AML) patients.

Methods: DNA methylation data were downloaded. DNA methylation signature was identified in the training group, and subsequently validated in an independent validation group.

CAT104 silence behaves as a tumor suppressor in human leukemia cells by down regulating miR-182 expression.

Background: LncRNAs and miRNAs are found to play crucial roles in the tumorigenesis of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). We aimed to investigate the functions and mechanisms of lncRNA-CAT104 and miR-182 in AML.

Methods: Expression of CAT104, miR-182, and ZEB1 in K562 and HL60 cell lines was respectively or synchronously altered by transfection.

Investigating the microRNA-mRNA regulatory network in acute myeloid leukemia.

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a common myelogenous malignancy in adults that is often characterized by disease relapse. The pathophysiological mechanism of AML has not yet been elucidated. The present study aimed to identify the crucial microRNAs (miRNAs/miRs) and target genes in AML, and to uncover the potential oncogenic mechanism of AML.

Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV)-BamHI-A Rightward Transcript (BART)-6 and Cellular MicroRNA-142 Synergistically Compromise Immune Defense of Host Cells in EBV-Positive Burkitt Lymphoma.

BACKGROUND This study was designed to explore the molecular mechanism underlying the effect of cellular miRNAs and EBV miRNA upon the expression of targets such as PTEN, and their involvement in the pathogenesis of Burkitt lymphoma. MATERIAL AND METHODS In this study, we examined several differentially expressed cellular miRNAs in EBV-positive versus EBV-negative Burkett lymphoma tissue samples, and confirmed PTEN as targets of cellular miR-142 by using a bioinformatics tool, luciferase reporter system, oligo transfection, real-time PCR, and Western blot analysis. RESULTS We further confirmed the binding site of miR-142 in the 3'UTR of the target genes, and established the negative regulatory relationship between miRNA and mRNAs with luciferase activity assay.

[An epidemiological study of bronchial asthma in Qinghai Province].

Objective: To study the prevalence of asthma in Qinghai Province between 2006 to 2007.

Methods: According to the geographical location and the altitude (1920 - 4500 m), stratified-cluster-random sampling was use for this study. A total of 27 851 individuals were investigated by household survey at 49 locations in 4 autonomous prefectures, Xining Municipal City and Haidong Administrative District.

Dermatoglyphics from all Chinese ethnic groups reveal geographic patterning.

Completion of a survey of dermatoglyphic variables for all ethnic groups in an ethnically diverse country like China is a huge research project, and an achievement that anthropological and dermatoglyphic scholars in the country could once only dream of. However, through the endeavors of scientists in China over the last 30 years, the dream has become reality. This paper reports the results of a comprehensive analysis of dermatoglyphics from all ethnic groups in China.

A dermatoglyphic study of the Amis aboriginal population of Taiwan.

Amis is the largest aboriginal population in Taiwan. The previous dermatoglyphic studies of the Amis only reported limited data. In this study, we collected and analyzed the dermatoglyphs of 200 Amis individuals, and we reported a wide range of dermatoglyphic variables including total finger ridge count, a-b ridge count, atd angle, axial triradius percent distance, and frequencies of fingerprint pattern, palmar thenar pattern, palmar interdigital pattern, and simian line.

A dermatoglyphic study of the Kavalan aboriginal population of Taiwan.

By the 1970s, a number of dermatoglyphic studies of Taiwan aborigines (Gaoshan nationality) had been published, however in each only a few dermatoglyphic variables were addressed. Since that time, little new research has been conducted. In this study, we collected and analyzed the dermatoglyphs of 100 individuals of Kavalan, a Taiwan aboriginal population, and we reported a wide range of dermatoglyphic variables including total finger ridge count (TFRC), a-b total ridge count (a-b RC), atd angle and axial triradius percent distance (tPD), and frequencies of fingerprint pattern, palmar thenar pattern, palmar interdigital pattern, palmar hypothenar pattern, and simian line.
