A novel label-free biosensor for myocardial ischemia biomarker detection via CRISPR/12a.

Myocardial infarction (MI) is the leading cause of death worldwide. Here, we present a novel, label-free biosensor for detecting myocardial ischemia biomarkers via CRISPR/Cas12a. This system utilizes the unique properties of CRISPR/Cas12a and G-quadruplex-ThT-based biosensors, enabling sensitive and specific detection of ATP, a crucial biomarker in cardiovascular diseases, at concentrations as low as 23 nM.

The pathogenic mechanism of monosodium urate crystal-induced kidney injury in a rat model.

Objective: (MSU) crystals usually in the kidney tubules especially collecting ducts in the medulla. Previous animal models have not fully reproduced the impact of MSU on kidneys under non-hyperuricemic conditions.

Methods: In the group treated with MSU, the upper pole of the rat kidney was injected intrarenally with 50 mg/kg of MSU, while the lower pole was injected with an equivalent volume of PBS solution.

Psoriasis comorbid with atherosclerosis meets in lipid metabolism.

Psoriasis (PSO) is a common skin disease affecting approximately 1%-3% of the population, and the incidence rate is increasing yearly. PSO is associated with a dramatically increased risk of cardiovascular disease, the most common of which is atherosclerosis (AS). In the past, inflammation was considered to be the triggering factor of the two comorbidities, but in recent years, studies have found that lipid metabolism disorders increase the probability of atherosclerosis in patients with psoriasis.

Anti-breast cancer-induced cardiomyopathy: Mechanisms and future directions.

With the progression of tumor treatment, the 5-year survival rate of breast cancer is close to 90%. Cardiovascular toxicity caused by chemotherapy has become a vital factor affecting the survival of patients with breast cancer. Anthracyclines, such as doxorubicin, are still some of the most effective chemotherapeutic agents, but their resulting cardiotoxicity is generally considered to be progressive and irreversible.

[Functional evaluation of anterolateral thigh flap and forearm flap for repairing defects after oropharyngeal cancer].

To investigate the oropharyngeal function recovery of oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma repaired by anterolateral thigh flap and forearm flap. Retrospective study between September 2016 and September 2020 complete line 37 cases of oropharyngeal cancer postoperative soft tissue defect of femoral anterolateral flap or forearm flap to repair the patient data, in which 22 cases, using the forearm skin flap to repair 15 cases with femoral anterolateral flap, flap survival rate of preparation, compare the two groups, the incidence of vascular crisis, The functions of swallowing, speech, and velopharyngeal closure were evaluated. 21 cases of forearm flaps survived, and 1 case had vascular crisis.
