Immune cell-enriched single-cell RNA sequencing unveils the interplay between infiltrated CD8 T resident memory cells and choroid plexus epithelial cells in Alzheimer's disease.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurological disorder and the leading cause of dementia. Despite significant efforts, treatment strategies targeting amyloid-β have been less successful than anticipated. Recently, the role of neuroinflammation and adaptive immune response in AD pathogenesis has gained attention.

Current and emerging nanotechnology for sustainable development of agriculture: Implementation design strategy and application.

Nanotechnology and nanomaterials have emerged as powerful tools in agriculture applications that provide alternatives or support traditional methods. This review aims to address and highlight the current overarching issue and various implementation strategies of nanotechnology for sustainable agriculture development.

Classification and application of metal-based nanoantioxidants in medicine and healthcare.

Antioxidants play an important role in the prevention of oxidative stress and have been widely used in medicine and healthcare. However, natural antioxidants have several limitations such as low stability, difficult long-term storage, and high cost of large-scale production. Along with significant advances in nanotechnology, nanomaterials have emerged as a promising solution to improve the limitations of natural antioxidants because of their high stability, easy storage, time effectiveness, and low cost.

Evaluation of routine practices of dispensing pattern among community pharmacists in Can Tho city, Vietnam: A cross-sectional simulated patient approach.

Background: Drugstores are preferred patients' channels of contact when getting minor ailments. Given the hike in both the prevalence and severity of influenza and acute childhood diarrhea, the role, and performances of pharmacy staff should be examined.

Design And Methods: A team of pharmacy students was voluntarily recruited and trained to play the role of simulated customer visiting 228 chosen community pharmacies in six districts in Can Tho city.

Isolation and purification of potential weed inhibitors from L.

The diversity in structure and herbicidal properties detected in natural phytotoxic compounds could bring about advantages for development bio-herbicides. The present study was carried out search for potential weed inhibitors from the parts of L. The ethyl acetate (EtOAc) extract of leaf of showed inhibitory activity during the time that (barnyardgrass) germinates and grows, which is greater than that of other extracts.

Estimating Crestal Thickness of Alveolar Bones on Intra-oral Ultrasonograms.

Objective: Alveolar crestal bone thickness and level provide important diagnostic and prognostic information for orthodontic treatment, periodontal disease management and dental implants. Ionizing radiation-free ultrasound has emerged as a promising clinical tool in imaging oral tissues. However, the ultrasound image is distorted when the wave speed of the tissue of interest is different from the mapping speed of the scanner and, therefore, the subsequent dimension measurements are not accurate.

Acetyl-CoA carboxylase-1/2 blockade locks dendritic cells in the semimature state associated with FA deprivation by favoring FAO.

Immunometabolism is rising as an intriguing topic that reveals the connection between immune cell function and metabolic processes. Especially, fatty acid metabolism plays an essential role in the dendritic cells (DCs) during the differentiation and maturation period. We questioned whether regulation of acetyl-CoA carboxylases 1 and 2-(ACC1/2), the core enzymes of fatty acid synthesis (FAS), would control DC function.

Statistical Physics Approach to Liquid Crystals: Dynamics of Mobile Potts Model Leading to Smectic Phase, Phase Transition by Wang-Landau Method.

We study the nature of the smectic-isotropic phase transition using a mobile 6-state Potts model. Each Potts state represents a molecular orientation. We show that with the choice of an appropriate microscopic Hamiltonian describing the interaction between individual molecules modeled by a mobile 6-state Potts spins, we observe the smectic phase dynamically formed when we cool the molecules from the isotropic phase to low temperatures ().

The blockade of cytoplasmic HMGB1 modulates the autophagy/apoptosis checkpoint in stressed islet beta cells.

High mobility group (HMGB1) is an alarmin known to be harmful to pancreatic beta cells and associated with diabetes mellitus pathogenesis and pancreatic islet graft failure. It has been long thought that the suppression of HMGB1 molecule is beneficial to the beta cells. However, recent studies have indicated that cytoplasmic HMGB1 (cHMGB1) could function as a modulator to relieve cells from apoptotic stress by autophagy induction.

A closed-form solution to propagation of guided waves in a layered half-space under a time-harmonic load: An application of elastodynamic reciprocity.

This article is concerned with the application of reciprocity in computing guided wave motions generated by a time-harmonic load in a layer of uniform thickness joined to a half-space. Explicit expressions for free Rayleigh waves and Love waves propagating in the layered half-space are introduced. Exact solutions of Rayleigh waves and Love waves are derived from reciprocity relations between an actual state - guided waves generated by a time-harmonic line load and a virtual state - an appropriately chosen free wave traveling in the structure.

Strengthening Public Health Management Capacity in Vietnam: Preparing Local Public Health Workers for New Roles in a Decentralized Health System.

Health sector decentralization has created an urgent need to strengthen public health management capacity in many countries throughout the developing world. This article describes the establishment of a national management training network in Vietnam that used Project-Based Learning to strengthen management competencies of HIV program workers and linked training to measurable improvement in HIV/AIDS public health program outcomes. Skills were taught using a combination of classroom learning and mentored fieldwork.

Overview of Pharmacovigilance System in Vietnam: Lessons Learned in a Resource-Restricted Country.

Drug safety issues in developing countries are complex and sensitive, and health authorities cannot always simply implement decisions from developed countries because the health system, disease patterns, and lists of marketed drugs all differ. A system for proactive and effective surveillance of drugs in each nation is needed to identify and manage the exact drug-related problems faced by patients in these countries. Vietnam launched its university-based National Drug Information and Adverse Drug Reaction Monitoring Centre (NDIADRMC) in 2009, a significant step towards catching up with international trends.

Can Fishing Pressure Invert the Outcome of Interspecific Competition? The Case of the Thiof and of the Octopus Along the Senegalese Coast.

We present a mathematical model of two competing marine species that are harvested. We consider three models according to different levels of complexity, without and with species refuge and density-independent and density-dependent species movement between fishing area and refuge. We particularly study the effects of the fishing pressure on the outcome of the competition.

Effects of Behavioural Strategy on the Exploitative Competition Dynamics.

We investigate a system of two species exploiting a common resource. We consider both abiotic (i.e.

Tacrolimus associated posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome - a case series and review.

Tacrolimus is an immunosuppressive drug mainly used to lower the risk of transplant rejection in individuals who are post solid organ or hematopoietic transplantation. It is a macrolide which reduces peptidyl-propyl isomerase activity and inhibits calcineurin, thus inhibiting T-lymphocyte signal transduction and interleukin-2 (IL-2) transcription. It has been associated with Posterior Reversible Encephalopathy Syndrome (PRES), a disease of sudden onset that can present as a host of different symptoms, depending on the affected area of the brain.
