Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how Astragaloside IV (AS IV) protects against lung injury and pulmonary fibrosis caused by PM2.5 in a rat model.
- Results show that AS IV reduces lung tissue damage, inflammation, and cell death in both the rat model and alveolar epithelial cells exposed to PM2.5.
- The mechanism involves AS IV upregulating miR-362-3p, which inhibits RUNX1 expression, enhancing the protective effects of AS IV against PM2.5-induced lung injury.

Article Synopsis
- Cattle and water buffalo share a close genetic relationship, but this study used SNP analysis to explore their differences at the genome level.
- The research analyzed 91 DNA samples from various water buffalo breeds, identifying a large number of SNPs, out of which only 935 were polymorphic and useful for further analysis.
- It was found that certain SNPs are significantly linked to fertility and milk production traits in water buffalo, indicating potential areas for breeding research, but more extensive studies are needed to confirm these findings.
