Mesenteric adipose tissue B lymphocytes promote intestinal injury in severe acute pancreatitis by mediating enteric pyroptosis.

Background: Visceral adipose tissue (VAT) has been linked to the severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) prognosis, although the underlying mechanism remains unclear. It has been reported that pyroptosis worsens SAP. The present study aimed to verify whether mesenteric adipose tissue (MAT, a component of VAT) can cause secondary intestinal injury through the pyroptotic pathway.

Electroacupuncture attenuates chronic salpingitis transforming growth factor-β1/p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathway.

Objective: To explore the effect of electroacupuncture (EA) on rats with chronic fallopian tube inflammation and its potential mechanisms.

Methods: Thirty-six female Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into Control, Model and EA groups. The pathological morphology of the fallopian tubes was observed by hematoxylin-eosin (HE) and Masson staining.

Modified Gexiazhuyu decoction alleviates chronic salpingitis p38 signaling pathway.

Objective: To investigate pharmacodynamic effects of modified Gexiazhuyu decoction (MGXZYD) and explore the underlying mechanism in the treatment of chronic salpingitis METHODS: Chronic salpingitis model rats were firstly constructed and the blood was collected to detect the whole blood viscosity and plasma viscosity. Rat oviduct were collected to evaluate the macroscopic damage and the pathological injury and fibrosis of oviduct by hematoxylin-eosin (HE) and Masson staining. Elisa assay was to detect the production interleukin-1 β (IL-1β) in serum and collagen I (COL-1), matrix metalloprotein 9 (MMP-9), tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases 1 (TIMP-1) in oviduct tissue.

ZnVO/NC hybrid microspheres self-assembled by layered porous nanosheets as a superior anode material for lithium/sodium-ion batteries.

Zinc-vanadium oxides have been attracting increasing consideration as anode materials for lithium/sodium-ion batteries (LIBs and SIBs) recently. Present applications are hampered by issues, including their inferior electric conductivity and enormous volume variation. Herein, nitrogen-doped carbon wrapped ZnVO (ZnVO/NC) microspheres composed of abundant nanosheets were developed as an anode material by a self-assembly strategy and subsequent surface decoration.

Hierarchical NiCoSe nanoneedles/nanosheets with N-doped 3D porous graphene architecture as free-standing anode for superior sodium ion batteries.

In order to cope with the problem of insufficient lithium metal reserves, sodium ion batteries (SIBs) are proposed and extensively studied for the next-generation batteries. In our work, hierarchical NiCoSe nanoneedles/nanosheets are deposited on the skeleton of N-doped three dimensional porous graphene (NPG) by a convenient solvothermal method and subsequent gas-phase selenization process. Compared with NiCoSe powder, the optimized NiCoSe/N-doped porous graphene composite (denoted as NCS@NPG) as self-supporting anode exhibits the excellent electrode activity for SIBs, with a specific capacity of 500 mAh/g and 257 mAh/g at a current density of 0.

Controlled synthesis of N-doped carbon and TiO double-shelled nanospheres with encapsulated multi-layered MoO nanosheets as an anode for reversible lithium storage.

α-Phase molybdenum trioxide (α-MoO) is one of the promising anode materials for lithium storage due to its high theoretical capacity and unique intercalation reaction mechanism. Herein, through an efficient step-by-step solvothermal synthesis strategy, multi-layered MoO nanosheets are encapsulated by nitrogen-doped carbon (NC) and ultrathin TiO double-shells to obtain hierarchical core-shell nanospheres (MoO@TiO@NC). The unique nanostructure enables shortening the Li diffusion distance, buffer the volume change during the intercalation/deintercalation process, and increase the active sites for the electrochemical reaction.

Highly uniform nitrogen-doped carbon decorated MoO nanopopcorns as anode for high-performance lithium/sodium-ion storage.

Molybdenum dioxides (MoO) featuring low cost and high theoretical capacity endow them competitive anode materials for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs)/sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). However, the low electrical conductivity and severe volume expansion occurring during the ion insertion/extraction process hamper their practical application. Herein, a novel dual-annealing design has been developed for the synthesis of highly uniform MoO nanopopcorns decorated with nitrogen-doped carbon shell (MoO/NC).

Detection of gastritis-associated pathogens by culturing of gastric juice and mucosa.

It is well known that () is not the only indigenous bacterium in the stomach, as numerous studies have revealed that the gastric microbiota contributes to the pathogenesis of gastric disease. However, the correlation between the gastric bacterial flora and gastritis is unclear. By comparing differences in viable gastric bacteria between a gastritis group and a healthy group, we examined the potential species related to chronic gastritis.

Construction of Small-Diameter Vascular Graft by Shape-Memory and Self-Rolling Bacterial Cellulose Membrane.

Bacterial cellulose (BC) membranes with shape-memory properties allow the rapid preparation of artificial small-diameter blood vessels when combined with microfluidics-based patterning with multiple types of cells. Lyophilization of a wet multilayered rolled BC tube endows it with memory to recover its tubular shape after unrolling. The unrolling of the BC tube yields a flat membrane, and subsequent patterning with endothelial cells, smooth muscle cells, and fibroblast cells is carried out by microfluidics.

Multiple tumor-associated microRNAs modulate the survival and longevity of dendritic cells by targeting YWHAZ and Bcl2 signaling pathways.

Tumors use a wide array of immunosuppressive strategies, such as reducing the longevity and survival of dendritic cells (DCs), to diminish immune responses and limit the effect of immunotherapy. In this study, we found that tumors upregulate the expression of multiple microRNAs (miRNAs), such as miR-16-1, miR-22, miR-155, and miR-503. These tumor-associated miRNAs influenced the survival and longevity of DCs by affecting the expression of multiple molecules that are associated with apoptotic signaling pathways.
