Exploring the Research Focus of RNA-Binding Proteins in Trauma and Burns.

Trauma and burns are leading causes of death and significant global health concerns. RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) play a crucial role in post-transcriptional gene regulation, influencing various biological processes of cellular RNAs. This study aims to review the emerging trends and key areas of research on RBPs in the context of trauma and burns.

Fluorine-expedited nitridation of layered perovskite SrTiO for visible-light-driven photocatalytic overall water splitting.

Photocatalytic overall water splitting is a promising approach for a sustainable hydrogen provision using solar energy. For sufficient solar energy utilization, this reaction ought to be operated based on visible-light-active semiconductors, which is very challenging. In this work, an F-expedited nitridation strategy is applied to modify the wide-bandgap semiconductor SrTiO for visible-light-driven photocatalytic overall water splitting.

Development of dual aptamers-functionalized c-MET PROTAC degraders for targeted therapy of osteosarcoma.

Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most common bone malignancy. c-MET is recognized as a therapeutic target. However, traditional c-MET inhibitors show compromised efficacy due to the acquired resistance and side effects.

Discovery of a Natural Ent-Kaurene Diterpenoid Oridonin as an E3 Ligase Recruiter for PROTACs.

PROTACs have emerged as a therapeutic modality for the targeted degradation of proteins of interest (POIs). Central to PROTAC technology are the E3 ligase recruiters, yet only a few of them have been identified due to the lack of ligandable pockets in ligases, especially among single-subunit ligases. We propose that binders of partner proteins of single-subunit ligases could be repurposed as new ligase recruiters.

Exogenous acetate attenuates inflammatory responses through HIF-1α-dependent glycolysis regulation in macrophage.

Cytokine storm is a hallmark for acute systemic inflammatory disease like sepsis. Intrinsic microbiome-derived short-chain fatty acid (SCFAs) like acetate modulates immune cell function and metabolism has been well studied. However, it remains poorly investigated about the effects and the underlying mechanism of exogenous acetate in acute inflammation like sepsis.

LncRNA EGFR‑AS1 promotes lung cancer cell proliferation, invasion and metastasis via regulation of miR‑449a/HDAC1.

There is increasing evidence that long non-coding (lnc)RNA EGFR-AS1 is involved in the development of numerous types of cancer, including non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) demonstrates that EGFR-AS1 is highly expressed in NSCLC. Downregulation of EGFR-AS1 in A549 and PC9 NSCLC cells demonstrates inhibition of NSCLC proliferation, invasion and metastasis.

Revealing the Therapeutic Potential of Stem Cells in Burn Healing: A Deeper Understanding of the Therapeutic Mechanisms of Epidermal Stem Cells and Mesenchymal Stem Cells.

Burns are a global public health issue and a major cause of disability and death around the world. Stem cells, which are the undifferentiated cells with the potential for indefinite proliferation and multilineage differentiation, have the ability to replace injured skin and facilitate the wound repair process through paracrine mechanisms. In light of this, the present study aims to conduct a bibliometric analysis in order to identify research hotspots of stem cell-related burns and assess global research tendencies.

Association between depression and anxiety disorders with euthyroid Hashimoto's thyroiditis: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT) affects up to 10 % of the population and is a common cause of hypothyroidism, which can lead to depression and anxiety. However, it remains unclear whether HT directly causes these conditions or if they arise due to HT-induced hypothyroidism. The present review aims to offer meta-analytic insights into the relationship between depression and anxiety in patients with euthyroid HT.

Lc-ms-based untargeted metabolomics reveals potential mechanisms of histologic chronic inflammation promoting prostate hyperplasia.

Background: Chronic prostatitis may be a risk factor for developing proliferative changes in the prostate, although the underlying mechanisms are not entirely comprehended.

Materials And Methods: Fifty individual prostate tissues were examined in this study, consisting of 25 patients diagnosed with prostatic hyperplasia combined with histologic chronic inflammation and 25 patients diagnosed with prostatic hyperplasia alone. We employed UPLC-Q-TOF-MS-based untargeted metabolomics using ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled with quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry to identify differential metabolites that can reveal the mechanisms that underlie the promotion of prostate hyperplasia by histologic chronic inflammation.

Reduction of nicotine content in tobacco through microbial degradation: research progress and potential applications.

Originally native to South America, tobacco and is now distributed worldwide as a major cash crop. Nicotine is the main harmful component of tobacco leaves, cigarette smoke and tobacco waste, which severely affects not only the flavor of the tobacco leaf, but also causes great damage to human health. As the anti-smoking movement continued to grow since the 1950s, and consumers become more aware of their health and environmental protection, the world tobacco industry has been committed to research, develop and produce low nicotine cigarette products with relatively low risk to human health.

Synthesis and Characterization of Polyimide with High Blackness and Low Thermal Expansion by Introducing 3,6-bis(thiophen-2-yl)diketopyrrolopyrrole-Based Chromophores.

The market demand for black polyimide (BPI) has grown hugely in the field of flexible copper-clad laminates (FCCLs) as a replacement for transparent yellow polyimide. The 3,6-bis(thiophen-2-yl)diketopyrrolopyrroles (TDPP) derivative is recognized for its high molar extinction coefficient. In this research, we have synthesized a diamine monomer named 3,6-bis[5-(4-amino-3-fluorophenyl)thiophen-2-yl]-2,5-bis(2-ethylhexyl)pyrrolo[4,3-c]pyrrole-1,4-dione (DPPTENFPDA), featuring a TDPP unit attached by fluorinated benzene rings.

A scalable, robust, and highly oriented flexible composite film inspired by a "brick-mortar" pillared structure for lithium ion batteries.

Macro-assembled silicon-based films can be taken into account as a possible anode material for the lithium ion batteries (LIBs) in portable electronics. However, most previously proposed preparation strategies are labor-intensive, intricate, and not appropriate for large-scale manufacturing. Herein, a multifunctional flexible silicon/carbon nanotube/reduced graphene oxide (Si/CNT/rGO) film was fabricated by one-step coating method based on the lyotropic nematic liquid crystals of graphene oxide (GO).

Sustained yet non-curative response to lenalidomide in relapsed angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma with acquired chidamide resistance: a case report with 10-year follow-up, genetic insights and literature review.

Angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL) is an aggressive subtype of peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) characterized by its T-follicular helper (TFH) phenotype. Relapsed and refractory disease is common in AITL and often associated with a poor prognosis. The presence of epigenetic abnormalities, immune dysregulation, hyperinflammation and active angiogenesis in AITL offers potential targets for histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors and immunomodulatory drugs (IMiDs).

Co-delivery of retinoic acid and miRNA by functional Au nanoparticles for improved survival and CT imaging tracking of MSCs in pulmonary fibrosis therapy.

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have emerged as promising candidates for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) therapy. Increasing the MSC survival rate and deepening the understanding of the behavior of transplanted MSCs are of great significance for improving the efficacy of MSC-based IPF treatment. Therefore, dual-functional Au-based nanoparticles (Au@PEG@PEI@TAT NPs, AuPPT) were fabricated by sequential modification of cationic polymer polyetherimide (PEI), polyethylene glycol (PEG), and transactivator of transcription (TAT) penetration peptide on AuNPs, to co-deliver retinoic acid (RA) and microRNA (miRNA) for simultaneously enhancing MSC survive and real-time imaging tracking of MSCs during IPF treatment.
