Identification of effective diagnostic genes and immune cell infiltration characteristics in small cell lung cancer by integrating bioinformatics analysis and machine learning algorithms.

Objectives: To identify potential diagnostic markers for small cell lung cancer (SCLC) and investigate the correlation with immune cell infiltration.

Methods: GSE149507 and GSE6044 were used as the training group, while GSE108055 served as validation group A and GSE73160 served as validation group B. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified and analyzed for functional enrichment.

Bibliometric analysis of the association between drinking water pollution and bladder cancer.

Background: Bladder cancer has become an increasingly intractable health problem worldwide. Long-term drinking water pollution is known to promote its occurrence. This study aimed to analyze the research status, hot spots, and future trends of drinking water pollution and bladder cancer through extensive bibliometric examination to provide reference data for better prevention and management of bladder cancer.

Rational design cold-set interpenetrating network hydrogel based on wheat bran arabinoxylans and pea protein isolates for regulating the release of riboflavin in simulated digestion.

Cold-set interpenetrating polymer network gels as riboflavin (RF) delivery vehicles based on wheat bran arabinoxylans (AX) and pea protein isolate (PPI) were developed via enzymatic-crosslinking. The impact of AX concentrations on the physicochemical property, in vitro digestion property and microstructure of IPN gels was explored. Increased concentrations of AX enhanced the viscoelasticity of IPN gels and resulted in a more compact microstructure.

Design and structural characterization of edible double network gels based on wheat bran arabinoxylan and pea protein isolate.

Double network (DN) gels based on wheat bran arabinoxylan (WBAX) and pea protein isolate (PPI) were fabricated by a two-step sequential gelation method with laccase catalyzed cross-linking followed by heating. The rheological properties, water holding capacity, microstructure and molecular structure of WBAX/PPI DN gels were investigated. Increasing the concentrations of WBAX and PPI contributed to an enhanced viscoelastic modulus of DN gel, which exhibited an interconnected, bicontinuous and compact structure with smaller pore sizes, as a result of higher cross-linking intensity of WBAX molecules.

First Report of Flower Stalk Wilting Caused by on Chinese cabbage in China.

Chinese cabbage ( L. ssp. ) is one of the main biennial vegetables in China and its flowers can be produced in the second year.

Development and characterization of novel bigels based on monoglyceride-beeswax oleogel and high acyl gellan gum hydrogel for lycopene delivery.

The aim of present study was to develop novel bigels as a semi-solid vehicle for lycopene delivery. Bigels were prepared by using the mixture of glycerol monostearate (GMS)-beeswax based oleogel and high acyl gellan gum hydrogel in different proportions. The confocal microscopic observations showed that the obtained bigels were oleogel-in-hydrogel, and droplets became larger with increased contents of oleogel.

Genome-Wide Identification and Analysis of CC-NBS-LRR Family in Response to Downy Mildew and Black Rot in Chinese Cabbage.

The nucleotide-binding site-leucine-rich repeat (NBS-LRR) gene family is the largest group of plant disease resistance (R) genes widespread in response to viruses, bacteria, and fungi usually involved in effector triggered immunity (ETI). Forty members of the Chinese cabbage CC type NBS-LRR family were investigated in this study. Gene and protein characteristics, such as distributed locations on chromosomes and gene structures, were explored through comprehensive analysis.

A Sensitive Signal-on Supersandwich DNA Biosensor Based on the Enhancement of Poly(aniline-luminol) Nanowires Electrochemiluminescence by Ferrocene.

A signal-on supersandwich type of electrochemiluminescence (ECL) DNA biosensor was developed based on the poly(aniline-luminol) nanowires (PALNWs) modified electrode and enhancement of ferrocene (Fc) on ECL of luminol. Aminated capture DNA was covalently linked to the PALNWs on the electrode surface by the crosslinking of glutaraldehyde. In presence of target DNA, its 3' terminus hybridizes with the capture probe and the 5' terminus hybridizes with ferrocene labeled DNA (Fc-DNA) to form a long DNA concatamer supersandwich structure.

A label-free electrochemiluminescence immunosensor for carbohydrate antigen 153 based on polypyrrole-luminol-AuNPs nanocomposites with bi-catalysis.

Polypyrrole-luminol-AuNPs nanocomposites were prepared and used to develop a sensitive label-free electrochemiluminescence (ECL) immunosensor for carbohydrate antigen 153 (CA153) detection. Firstly, polypyrrole (PPY) nanoparticles were synthesized by a chemical oxidation method using FeCl as an oxidizing agent, then luminol and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) were combined with PPY nanoparticles through electrostatic interaction to form PPY-luminol-AuNPs nanocomposites. The nanocomposites were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), UV-Vis absorption spectra, atomic emission spectrometry (AES), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS).

Role of microRNA and long non-coding RNA in Marek's disease tumorigenesis in chicken.

Marek's disease virus (MDV), the causative agent of Marek's disease (MD), results in highly infectious phymatosis, lymphatic tissue hyperplasia, and neoplasia. MD is associated with high morbidity and mortality rate. Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) entails long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) and microRNA (miRNA).
