Neurochemical signals like dopamine (DA) play a crucial role in a variety of brain functions through intricate interactions with other neuromodulators and intracellular signaling pathways. However, studying these complex networks has been hindered by the challenge of detecting multiple neurochemicals simultaneously. To overcome this limitation, we developed a single-protein chemigenetic DA sensor, HaloDA1.

Agriculture is a major contributor to global greenhouse gas emissions, highlighting the urgent need for effective carbon reduction strategies. This study presents an innovative integrated model that employs Fermatean Neutrosophic Set in conjunction with the Weighted Influence Nonlinear Gauge System and the Analytic Hierarchy Process combined with the Entropy Weight Method to assess key factors influencing agricultural carbon reduction. Our study delineates the hierarchical importance of factors influencing carbon emissions, with carbon emission reduction policy (τ4) emerging as the paramount factor, attributed a value of 0.

Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) nanomachines have been widely exploited in enzyme activity regulation, protein crystallization, protein assembly, and control of the protein-protein interaction (PPI). Yet, the fundamental biophysical framework of DNA nanomachines in the case of regulating protein-protein interactions remains elusive. Here, we established a DNA nanospring-mCherry model with mCherry homodimers of different .

This paper identifies nine factors affecting agricultural sustainable development by reading extensive literature and invites five experts to assess these factors using the pythagorean neutrosophic linguistic variable. Some of these factors can directly reduce the environmental footprint of agriculture, improve soil health, and promote biodiversity, while others can indirectly integrate to support the adoption of sustainable practices, further mitigating environmental degradation. Collectively, these factors reinforce ecological balance and play a critical role in advancing agricultural sustainable development.

The novel multivalued neutrosophic aggregation operators are proposed in this paper to handle the complicated decision-making situations with correlation between specific information and partitioned parameters at the same time, which are based on weighted power partitioned Hamy mean (WMNPPHAM) operators for multivalued neutrosophic sets (MNS) proposed by combining the Power Average and Hamy operators. Firstly, the power partitioned Hamy mean (PPHAM) is capable of capture the correlation between aggregation parameters and the relationship among attributes dividing several parts, where the attributes are dependent definitely within the interchangeable fragment, other attributes in divergent sections are irrelevant. Secondly, because MNS can effectively represent imprecise, insufficient, and uncertain information, we proposed the multivalued neutrosophic PMHAM (WMNPHAM) operator for MNS and its partitioned variant (WMNPPHAM) with the characteristics and examples.

Diffuse-type gastric cancer (DGC) and intestinal-type gastric cancer (IGC) are the major histological types of gastric cancer (GC). The molecular mechanism underlying DGC and IGC differences are poorly understood. In this research, we carry out multilevel proteomic analyses, including proteome, phospho-proteome, and transcription factor (TF) activity profiles, of 196 cases covering DGC and IGC in Chinese patients.

Background: Totally laparoscopic gastrectomy (TLG) entails both gastrectomy and gastrointestinal reconstruction under laparoscopy. Compared with laparoscopic assisted gastrectomy (LAG), TLG has been demonstrated in many studies to require a smaller surgical incision, result in a faster postoperative recovery and less pain and have comparable long-term efficacy, which has been a research hotspot in recent years. Whether TLG is equally safe and feasible for elderly patients remains unclear.

Gastric cancer is a one of the most common malignant tumors with poor prognosis worldwide. Leucine-rich G-protein-coupled receptor 5 (LGR5) is determined as a modulator of Wnt signaling cascade and R-spondins are a family of secretory agonists in the Wnt signaling and act as ligands to interact with LGR5. However, the function of Rspondin-1 in GC remains obscure.
