Identification of immunostimulatory activities and active compounds from sequentially extracted fractions of rhizosphere fungal fermentation broth of Koidz. rhizomes.

Introduction: Pharmacological studies have shown that the rhizome of Atractylodes macrocephala Koidz. (Compositae), commonly known as atractylodes macrocephala rhizome (AMR), can modulate immunity. Nevertheless, its resources have been largely depleted, and the pharmacological activity of artificial AMR is relatively modest.

Advanced reactivity-based sequencing methods for mRNA epitranscriptome profiling.

Currently, over 170 chemical modifications identified in RNA introduce an additional regulatory attribute to gene expression, known as the epitranscriptome. The development of detection methods to pinpoint the location and quantify these dynamic and reversible modifications has significantly expanded our understanding of their roles. This review goes deep into the latest progress in enzyme- and chemical-assisted sequencing methods, highlighting the opportunities presented by these reactivity-based techniques for detailed characterization of RNA modifications.

The Impact of Self-Esteem and Interpersonal Relationships on the Processing of Verbal Violence: Evidence from ERPs.

The perception of verbal violence is a critical component in the chain of its negative impacts. This study utilized event-related potentials (ERPs) to explore the impact of self-esteem and interpersonal relationships on the processing of verbal violence. Seventy-three participants completed the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale and a verbal violence ERP task.

Xinnaoxin capsule alleviates neuropathological changes and cognitive deficits in Alzheimer's disease mouse model induced by D-galactose and aluminum chloride via reducing neuroinflammation and protecting synaptic proteins.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Originally formulated to mitigate high-altitude sickness, Xinnaoxin capsules (XNX) are composed of three traditional Chinese medicines (Rhodiola rosea L., Lycium barbarum L. and Hippophae rhamnoides) with properties of anti-hypoxia, anti-fatigue, and anti-aging.

Interaction of inflammatory factors related to pulmonary infection and TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway in patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage.

Objective: To investigate the interaction of inflammatory factors related to pulmonary infection and the TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway in patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH).

Methods: A total of 325 critically ill ICH patients treated in our hospital from May 2021 to February 2024 were selected for this study. Based on whether the patient developed a pulmonary infection during treatment, they were divided into the infection group (n = 86) and the non-infection group (n = 239).
