Article Synopsis
  • - The study found that patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) due to influenza A virus (IAV) showed significant increases in resting energy expenditure and earlier energy depletion in affected cells.
  • - Researchers identified that mitochondrial dysfunction and impaired oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) occurred in IAV-infected bronchial epithelial cells from COPD patients, with these issues being pronounced before ATP levels dropped.
  • - Treatment with melatonin was shown to rescue the energy exhaustion and mitochondrial damage linked to IAV infection, suggesting that it could be a potential therapy for improving outcomes in AECOPD patients caused by IAV.

Introduction: Light-harvesting chlorophyll a/b-binding (LHCB) protein complexes of photosystem II are integral to the formation of thylakoid structure and the photosynthetic process. They play an important role in photoprotection, a crucial process in leaf development under low-temperature stress. Nonetheless, potential key genes directly related to low-temperature response and albino phenotype have not been precisely identified in tea plant.

Background: Mythimna loreyi is an important agricultural pest with a sensitive sex pheromone communication system. To clarify the pheromone binding proteins (PBPs) and pheromone receptors (PRs) involved in sex pheromone perception is important for both understanding the molecular olfactory mechanism and developing a new pest control strategy in M. loreyi.

Background: The gefitinib resistance mechanism in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains unclear, albeit exosomal circular RNA (circRNA) is known to possibly play a vital role in it.

Methods: We employed high-throughput sequencing techniques to detect the expressions of exosomal circRNA both in gefitinib-resistant and gefitinib-sensitive cells in this study. The circKIF20B expression was determined in serum exosomes and tissues of patients by qRT-PCR.

The light-sensitive albino tea plant can produce pale-yellow shoots with high levels of amino acids which are suitable to process high-quality tea. In order to understand the mechanism of the albino phenotype formation, the changes in the physio-chemical characteristics, chloroplast ultrastructure, chlorophyll-binding proteins, and the relevant gene expression were comprehensively investigated in the leaves of the light-sensitive albino cultivar 'Huangjinya' ('HJY') during short-term shading treatment. In the content of photosynthetic pigments, the ultrastructure of the chloroplast, and parameters of the photosynthesis in the leaves of 'HJY' could be gradually normalized along with the extension of the shading time, resulting in the leaf color transformed from pale yellow to green.

Mangrove rhizosphere soils host diverse Actinobacteria tolerant to numerous stresses and are inevitably capable of exhibiting excellent biological activity by producing impressive numbers of bioactive natural products, including those with potential medicinal applications. In this study, we applied an integrated strategy of combining phylogenetic diversity, biological activities, and biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) screening approach to investigate the biotechnological importance of Actinobacteria isolated from mangrove rhizosphere soils from Hainan Island. The actinobacterial isolates were identifified using a combination of colony morphological characteristics and 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis.

Influenza virus infection is one of the strongest pathogenic factors for the development of acute lung injury (ALI)/ acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). However, the underlying cellular and molecular mechanisms have not been clarified. In this study, we aim to investigate whether melatonin modulates macrophage polarization, oxidative stress, and pyroptosis via activating Apolipoprotein E/low-density lipoprotein receptor (ApoE/LDLR) pathway in influenza A-induced ALI.

Raf kinase inhibitor protein (RKIP) is an inflammation‑inhibiting mediator that is involved in several diseases; however, the potential mechanism of action of RKIP on the inflammatory response induced by influenza A virus (IAV) remains unclear. The present study aimed to investigate whether RKIP regulated the inflammatory response via the ERK/MAPK pathway. The present study detected the expression levels of RKIP and alterations in the inflammatory response in human normal bronchial epithelial BEAS‑2B cells, diseased human bronchial epithelial cells and primary human bronchial epithelial cells infected with IAV.

It is of great importance to treat a bacterial-infected wound by a smart dressing capable of delivering antibiotics in a smart manner without causing drug resistance. The construction of smart release nanocontainers responsive to near-infrared (NIR) laser irradiation in an on-demand and stepwise way is a promising strategy for avoiding the emergence of multidrug-resistant bacteria. Here, we develop a hydrogel composite made of alginate and nanotubes with an efficient NIR-triggered release of rifampicin and outstanding antibacterial ability.

Airway mucus hypersecretion is a vital pathophysiologic feature in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients in which airflow limitation result, and it is key to strategizing in the management of COPD. To investigate the mechanisms underlying the action of interleukin-6 neutralizing antibody (IL-6 Ab) in attenuating airway mucus hypersecretion in COPD, human and mouse primary bronchial epithelial cells from COPD patients and mice were isolated, human organoid model of trachea was established and all treated with IL-6 and/or IL-6 Ab. The differential expression of Muc5ac and Nrf2 were determined in pDHBE compared to pNHBE cells via high-throughput sequencing of transcriptome.

Objectives: To study the application of three-dimensional speckle-tracking imaging in evaluating left ventricular systolic function and its correlation with peripheral arterial elasticity in children with simple obesity.

Methods: Random sampling combined with convenience sampling was used to obtain research samples, and then the samples were divided into an obesity group (23 cases), an overweight group (21 cases), and a normal group (24 cases). Three-dimensional speckle-tracking imaging was used to measure the global longitudinal strain (GLS), global radial strain (GRS), and global circumferential strain (GCS) of the left ventricle.

To investigate whether tendon reconstruction during mitral valve repair can be effectively guided by transesophageal echocardiography (TEE), using the mid-esophageal bi-commissure view, bicaval view and the aortic valve-mitral valve transition short-axis view. A total of 40 patients that underwent mitral valve repair with artificial tendineae were recruited. Before the operation, conventional transthoracic echocardiography was used to determine whether mitral valve repair would be possible.

Phosphine ligands with up to six chiral sites were prepared, starting from 2-phenylphenol, via - and -alkylation, cyclization, and coupling. The chirality was transferred from ()-menthyl to phosphorus, α-carbon, and axis, to achieve excellent diastereoselectivities. During an intramolecular SAr reaction with alkoxyl as the leaving groups, the C-O bond was converted to a C-C bond.

P,C-Stereogenic propargyl alcohols RC-3/SC-3' were prepared by the addition of (L)-menthyl-derived SPOs to propynals, which were converted to P,axial-stereogenic allenyl bisphosphine oxides. The chirality transfer was controlled by α-carbon via syn [2,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement. For SC-3' linking weak WDG on the alkynyl moiety, the chirality on the axis depended on stereogenic phosphorus.
