The mechanism of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α enhancing the transcriptional activity of transferrin ferroportin 1 and regulating the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway in ferroptosis after cerebral ischemic injury.

Cerebral ischemic/reperfusion (I/R) injury has high disability and morbidity. Hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) may enhance the transcriptional activity of transferrin ferroportin 1 (FPN1) in regulating ferroptosis after cerebral ischemia injury (CII). In this study, cerebral I/R injury rat models were established and treated with pcDNA3.

Association of anion gap and albumin corrected anion gap with acute kidney injury in patients with acute ischemic stroke.

Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) has become a common complication of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) and may have a significant impact on clinical outcomes. Anion gap (AG)/albumin corrected anion gap (ACAG) are used to assess acid-base balance status and help identify the severity of metabolic acidosis.

Objectives: To explore the association of AG and ACAG with the risk of AKI in AIS patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU).

Extracellular vesicles from bone marrow stromal cells reduce the impact of stroke on glial cell activation and blood brain-barrier permeability via a putative miR-124/PRX1 signalling pathway.

Ischaemic stroke (IS) is a cerebrovascular disease caused by cerebral infarction and cerebral artery occlusion. In this study, we proposed that EVs from bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) could reduce the impact of stroke by reducing the resultant glial cell activation and blood-brain barrier (BBB) leak. We furthermore investigated some of the signalling mechanisms.

Amino-functionalized NH-MIL-125(Ti)-decorated hierarchical flowerlike ZnlnS for boosted visible-light photocatalytic degradation.

Developing novel heterojunction photocatalysts with visible-light response and remarkable photocatalytic activity have been verified to applying for the photodegradation of antibiotics in water environment. Herein, NH-MIL-125(Ti) was integrated with flowerlike ZnInS to construct NH-MIL-125(Ti)@ZnInS heterostructure using a one-pot solvothermal method. The photocatalytic performance was evaluated by the degradation of tetracycline (TC) under visible light illumination.

Mismatch negativity as a potential neurobiological marker of early-stage Alzheimer disease and vascular dementia.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) and vascular dementia (VD) are serious, irreversible forms of cognitive impairment, which means that an early diagnosis is essential to slow down their progression. One potential neurophysiological biomarker of these diseases is the mismatch negativity (MMN) event-related potentials (ERP) component, which reflects an automatic detection mechanism at the pre-attentive stages of information processing. We evaluated the auditory MMN response in individuals from two patient groups: those in the prodromal stages of AD (P-AD) and those in the prodromal stages of VD (P-VD).
