Duck Tembusu virus (DTMUV), a novel positive-sense RNA virus, has caused significant economic losses in the poultry industry of Eastern and Southeast Asia since its outbreak in 2010. Furthermore, the rapid transmission and potential zoonotic nature of DTMUV pose a threat to public health safety. In this study, a 4D-DIA quantitative proteomics approach was employed to identify differentially expressed cellular proteins in DTMUV-infected DF-1 cells, which are routinely used for virus isolation and identification for DTMUV, as well as the development of vaccines against other poultry viruses.

Duck Tembusu virus (DTMUV) is an emerging flavivirus that has inflicted significant economic losses on China's poultry industry. Rapid and accurate detection of DTMUV is crucial for effective prevention and control measures. In this study, we developed a novel, rapid visual detection assay that combines reverse transcriptase loop-mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP) with the CRISPR/Cas12a system for on-site detection of DTMUV.

The assessment of population genetic structure is the basis for understanding the genetic information of indigenous breeds and is important for the protection and management of indigenous breeds. However, the population genetic differentiation of many local breeds still remains unclear. Here, we performed a genome-wide comparative analysis of Jinding, Liancheng white, Putian black, and Shanma ducks based on the genomic sequences using RAD sequencing to understand their population structure and genetic diversity.

Animal evolution is characterized by frequent turnover of sexually dimorphic traits-new sex-specific characters are gained, and some ancestral sex-specific characters are lost, in many lineages. In insects, sexual differentiation is predominantly cell autonomous and depends on the expression of the doublesex (dsx) transcription factor. In most cases, cells that transcribe dsx have the potential to undergo sex-specific differentiation, while those that lack dsx expression do not.

This study aimed to explore the role and mechanism of circ_0014359 in the OSCC. We firstly investigated the expression levels of circ_0014359 in OSCC tissues and cell lines. Then, the effects of knocking down circ_0014359 on cellular viability, apoptosis, migration, and invasion of OSCC cell lines were observed by cell counting kit-8 assay, flow cytometry, and transwell assay.

Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is a common complication with adverse outcome after iodinated-contrast injection, yet still lacking effective medication. Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) has been reported to play an important role against renal injuries. Hemin, a HO-1 inducer and anti-porphyria medicine, may have a promising effect against CIN.

  • Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) is a rare type of tumor that usually appears in the lungs but can also occur in other areas like the brain.
  • A 55-year-old patient was treated for nasopharyngeal IMT that recurred in the skull base and underwent surgery, but imaging revealed further metastasis.
  • After receiving a combination of immunotherapies, the patient showed significant improvement, highlighting the potential effectiveness of immune-targeted treatments for rare intracranial IMT.

An implant template with great precision is significantly critical for clinical application. Currently, the application of an immediate implant remains limited by the deviations between the planned and actual achieved positions and long periods required for preparation of implant templates. Material Extrusion (MEX), as one kind of 3D printing method, is well known for its low cost and easy operation.

Excellent biocompatibility and corrosion resistance of implants are essential for Ti6Al4V parts fabricated by selective laser melting (SLM) for biomedical applications. To achieve better corrosion resistance and biocompatibility of Ti6Al4V parts, the effects of SLM processing parameters on the corrosion resistance and the biocompatibility of Ti6Al4V parts are investigated by changing the scanning speeds and laser powers. The detailed influence mechanism of processing parameters on the properties of Ti6Al4V parts is studied from two aspects, including microstructure and defects.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to compare the effectiveness and safety of diode laser enucleation (DiLEP) versus holmium laser enucleation (HoLEP) for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in 126 patients.
  • Both treatments resulted in similar improvements in urinary symptoms and quality of life after surgery, with no significant differences in baseline characteristics or perioperative outcomes like operative time and hospital stay.
  • DiLEP had the advantage of less blood loss and better hemostasis compared to HoLEP, but both methods were found to be effective and safe for BPH treatment.

Flood has an important effect on plant growth by affecting their physiologic and biochemical properties. Soybean is one of the main cultivated crops in the world and the United States is one of the largest soybean producers. However, soybean plant is sensitive to flood stress that may cause slow growth, low yield, small crop production and result in significant economic loss.
