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.

Article Synopsis
  • Low-intensity training with blood flow restriction (BFR) could enhance endurance adaptations, but its effects on myocardial markers need more examination compared to regular training methods.
  • The study involved 12 active males who completed three different exercise protocols, including low-intensity cycling with and without BFR, and high-intensity cycling, while measuring various physiological markers.
  • Results showed that low-intensity cycling with BFR and high-intensity cycling significantly elevated cardiac troponin T levels, indicating potential heart strain, compared to low-intensity cycling without BFR.

Article Synopsis
  • Researchers aim to create nanodevices that target specific organs or cells, which is a key goal in synthetic biology.
  • Recent advancements in DNA nanotechnology, particularly DNA origami, have enabled the construction of robust nanodevices for delivering drugs to tumors, despite challenges like structural fragility and targeting.
  • The study highlights the successful encapsulation of DNA origami in lipid-based nanoparticles, enhancing the delivery and effectiveness of genetic material (like mRNA and siRNA) in mouse organs, paving the way for better organ-specific gene expression control.

The strategy of active aggregation tag fusion expression with target proteins can solve the problems of restricted expression, inefficient purification, and laborious immobilization faced in the production of recombinant proteins in . 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.

CDK4/6 are important regulators of cell cycle and their inhibitors have been approved as anti-cancer drugs. 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.

Background The vast majority of women with perinatal depression (PND) live in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). 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.

The disposition of functional groups can induce variations in the nature and type of interactions and hence affect the molecular recognition and self-assembly mechanism in cocrystals. 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.
