Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic nonspecific inflammatory bowel disease characterized mainly by inflammatory changes in the intestinal mucosa. While the specific etiology of UC remains unclear, it is generally believed that it is related to many factors, among which the imbalance in the expression of molecules involved in pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory processes can lead to UC. CCL5 (C-C chemokine ligand 5) is one of the key pro-inflammatory factors and plays an indispensable role in various inflammatory diseases, including UC.

Cognitive decline is a critical hallmark of brain aging. Although aging is a natural process, there is significant heterogeneity in cognition levels among individuals; however, the underlying mechanisms remain uncertain. In our study, we classified aged male Sprague‒Dawley rats into aged cognition-unimpaired (AU) group and aged cognition-impaired (AI) group by using an attentional set-shifting task.

Purpose Of Review: Tension-type headaches (TTH) significantly diminish patients' quality of life and increase absenteeism, thereby imposing a substantial economic burden. Animal models are essential tools for studying disease mechanisms and drug development. However, until now, little focus has been placed on summarizing the animal models of TTH and associated mechanistic studies.

Article Synopsis
  • The study reviews the use of outcome indicators in randomized controlled trials (RCT) for traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) in treating microvascular angina (MVA), identifying current problems and proposing solutions for high-quality trial design.
  • A total of 69 RCTs were analyzed, extracting 100 outcome indicators across 8 domains, with a notable emphasis on physical and chemical examinations, response rates, and symptoms.
  • Key issues identified include inconsistent reporting of adverse reactions, a variety of low-frequency indicators, lack of endpoint focus, and a need for standardized evaluation criteria tailored to TCM practices.

Nowadays, lung cancer is one of the most dangerous cancers threatening human life all over the world. As a crucial biomarker, cytokeratin 19 fragment 21-1 (CYFRA 21-1) is extraordinary important for diagnosis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). In this work, we synthesized hollow SnO/CdS QDs/CdCO heterostructured nanocubes with high and stable photocurrents, which applied to construction of a sandwich-typed photoelectrochemical (PEC) immunosensor for detection of CYFRA 21-1, integrated by in-situ catalytic precipitation strategy with home-built PtPd alloy anchored MnCo-CeO (PtPd/MnCo-CeO) nanozyme for synergistic amplification.

Vascular endothelial growth factor 165 (VEGF) is a crucial regulator of angiogenesis and works as a major protein biomarker of cancer metastasis. Therefore, its quantitative detection is pivotal in clinic. In this work, CuS/ZnInS flower-like heterojunctions had strong and stable photocurrents, which behaved as photoactive material to construct a photoelectrochemical (PEC) aptasensor for detecting VEGF, combined by home-prepared (MnCo)FeO nanozyme-mediated signal amplification.

Breast cancer is the most common malignant tumor in women, which seriously threatens the life and health of patients. Therefore, facile and sensitive detection of human breast cancer cells is crucial for cancer diagnosis. In this work, plum-branched CdS/BiS heterostructures (CdS/BiS HSs) were synthesized under hydrothermal condition, whose photoelectrochemical (PEC) property and biocompatibility were scrutinously investigated.

Fumonisin B1 (FB1), the most prevalent and highest toxicity mycotoxins among fumonisins family, poses threats to human especially children and infants even at a trace level. Therefore, its facile and sensitive detection is of importance. Herein, Z-scheme CuMoS/CdS/InS nanocage-like heterojunctions (labeled CuMoS/CdS/InS) were synthesized, whose photoelectrochemical (PEC) property and electron transfer mechanism were strictly investigated.

Article Synopsis
  • The gut microbiota significantly influences human health and immunity, and its composition changes with aging, leading to inflammation and increased risk of diseases.* -
  • Plant polysaccharides, specifically Eucommiae polysaccharides (EPs), have shown potential in improving gut health by reducing harmful bacteria and promoting beneficial ones, but their effects on aging-related microbiota changes are not well understood.* -
  • Research on Drosophila indicates that EPs can extend lifespan, reduce age-related reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, and help prevent gut dysfunction associated with aging, suggesting their potential as prebiotics for improved gut health in older populations.*

Hepatocellular carcinoma is a life-threatening malignant tumor found around the world for its high morbidity and mortality. Therefore, it is of great importance for sensitive analysis of liver cancer cells (HepG2 cells) in clinical diagnosis and biomedical research. To fulfill this demand, hollow CdInS/InS heterostructured microspheres (termed CdInS/InS for clarity) were prepared by a two-step hydrothermal strategy and applied for building a novel photoelectrochemical (PEC) cytosensor for ultrasensitive and accurate detection of HepG2 cells through specific recognition of CD133 protein on the cell surface with the respective aptamer.

Article Synopsis
  • This study compared the pull and introducer techniques for percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) in 103 inpatients, focusing on their indications, success rates, and complications.
  • The pull technique had a significantly lower tube replacement rate (1.5%) compared to the introducer technique (11.1%), and patients with esophageal cancer were less represented in the pull group.
  • While both techniques showed high success rates, the introducer method is recommended for patients with esophageal stricture due to fewer minor complications, although it requires more tube replacements than the pull method.
