Hepatic Stellate Cell Membrane-Camouflaged Nanoparticles for Targeted Delivery of an Antifibrotic Agent to Hepatic Stellate Cells with Enhanced Antifibrosis Efficacy.

Liver fibrosis is characterized by the excessive accumulation of extracellular matrix proteins primarily produced by activated hepatic stellate cells (HSCs). The activation of HSCs plays a pivotal role in driving the progression of liver fibrosis. Achieving specific targeted delivery of antifibrotic agents toward activated HSCs remains a formidable challenge.

Response to the CO concentrating mechanisms and transcriptional time series analysis of Ulva prolifera under inorganic carbon limitation.

Ulva prolifera is a dominant species in green tides and has been affecting marine ecosystem for many years. Due to the low availability of CO in the environment, U. prolifera utilizes the CO concentrating mechanisms (CCMs) to increase intracellular inorganic carbon concentration.

Interoception primes negative emotion processing during cognitive reappraisal: Electroencephalographical evidence.

Interoception, which refers to sensing, interpreting, and integrating internal bodily signals, has been suggested to be associated with emotion regulation. Previous research has demonstrated individual differences in interoception and its impact on emotion regulation. However, the priming effect of interoception on emotion regulation and the underlying neural mechanisms remain unknown.

The Situation of Counterfeited and Mislabeled Commercialized Edible Mushrooms in China and the Development of Possible Controls.

Edible mushroom products, encompassing both cultivated and wild varieties, are highly favored by consumers due to their rich nutritional profiles, including significant levels of proteins and amino acids. These mushrooms have extensive applications across the food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries, making the edible mushroom industry a vital component of global poverty alleviation efforts. Taking China as an example, the country produces over 45 million tons of edible mushrooms annually, accounting for 94.

Bisphenol S Promotes the Transfer of Antibiotic Resistance Genes via Transformation.

The antibiotic resistance crisis has seriously jeopardized public health and human safety. As one of the ways of horizontal transfer, transformation enables bacteria to acquire exogenous genes naturally. Bisphenol compounds are now widely used in plastics, food, and beverage packaging, and have become a new environmental pollutant.

In vivo assembly in tobacco cells to elucidate and engineer the biosynthesis of 4-hydroxydihydrocinnamaldehyde from Gloriosa superba.

The precursor, 4-hydroxydihydrocinnamaldehyde (4-HDCA), participates in the biosynthesis of the carbon skeleton of colchicine, which is derived from L-phenylalanine.

Exposure to bisphenol compounds accelerates the conjugative transfer of antibiotic resistance plasmid.

Antimicrobial resistance poses the most formidable challenge to public health, with plasmid-mediated horizontal gene transfer playing a pivotal role in its global spread. Bisphenol compounds (BPs), a group of environmental contaminants with endocrine-disrupting properties, are extensively used in various plastic products and can be transmitted to food. However, the impact of BPs on the plasmid-mediated horizontal transfer of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) has not yet been elucidated.

Prognostic significance of a 3-gene ferroptosis-related signature in lung cancer via LASSO analysis and cellular functions of UBE2Z.
