This study was carried out to systematically review and evaluate the influence of exercise with and without curcumin on body fat composition, glucose, and lipid metabolism in obese adults. Search for eligible studies through four databases, and then proceed with screening. The inclusion criteria are as follows: (1) obese adults; (2) randomized controlled trial (RCT); (3) classified the exercise intervention with curcumin supplementation as the exercise with curcumin (CU) group and without curcumin supplementation as the exercise without curcumin (EX) group; (4) Conducted pre- and post-training assessments, which include body fat composition, glucose and lipid metabolism parameters.

We localized a novel active aggregation peptide HlyA60 from the hemolysin A secretion system, which can effectively induce aggregate formation with satisfactory protein activities in after fusion expression with the protein of interest. Based on structural prediction and surface properties, the process of active aggregation of HlyA60 through electrostatic interactions and hydrophobic interactions was analyzed.

Here, we report a STING-dependent anti-tumor immune mechanism responsible for tumor suppression by CDK4/6 blockade. Clinical datasets show that in human tissues, CDK4 and CDK6 are over-expressed and their expressions are negatively correlated with patients' overall survival and T cell infiltration.

Task sharing is an alternative delivery strategy to implement PND services. However, the exploration of influencing factors for task sharing in PND services is poor.

To better understand the formation of cocrystals on a molecular level, the effects of disposition of functional groups on the formation of cocrystals were systematically and comprehensively investigated using cresol isomers (-, -, -cresol) as model compounds. Consistency and variability in these cocrystals containing positional isomers were found and analyzed.
