Waterlogging stress is a serious problem all over the world, which inhibits plant growth and development, and even leads to plant death in severe circumstances. Ethylene-responsive VII transcription factor (ERFVII) is a key factor regulating plant waterlogging tolerance. In this study, a major QTL conferring chlorophyll content under waterlogging stress was detected on chromosome 4H through GWAS using a natural population.

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a significant global health concern that often results in death or disability, and effective pharmacological treatments are lacking. G protein-coupled receptor 56 (GPR56), a potential drug target, is crucial for neuronal and glial cell function and therefore plays important roles in various neurological diseases. Here, we investigated the potential role and mechanism of GPR56 in TBI-related damage to gain new insights into the pharmacological treatment of TBI.

The slight acidic pH changes during food storage and transportation are often difficult to detect in a timely and accurate manner. There is also an urgent need to establish a portable, accurate, and low interference detection method for real-time monitoring of the quality changes of fresh juice that already has its own color. In this paper, a self-ratiometric fluorescent sensor (DCCA/SA bead) was prepared by combining a modified coumarin and sodium alginate (SA), and was used for the extreme pH monitoring of fluorescent by naked eye colorimetry.

Based on the urgent need for environmental protection, traditional petroleum-based packaging materials are gradually being replaced by non-toxic and biodegradable biopolymer packaging materials such as proteins, polysaccharides and lipids. Among them, egg white protein (EWP) has been widely concerned because of its excellent gel film forming properties and high nutritional value. EWP film has the advantages of high mechanical strength, good stability, high transparency, controllable cost, good compatibility with human tissue, etc.

Liver cancer refers to malignant tumors that form in the liver and is usually divided into several types, the most common of which is hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), which originates in liver cells. Other rare types of liver cancer include intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA). m6A modification is a chemical modification of RNA that usually manifests as the addition of a methyl group to adenine in the RNA molecule to form N6-methyladenosine.

Chemotherapy remains a vital component of cancer treatment, with combination therapy widely used in clinical practice to overcome the limitations of single-drug administration. However, challenges persist including pharmacokinetic discrepancies among different pharmaceutical agents, and insufficient synergistic efficiency in small-molecule drug combinations. There is an urgent need to develop more efficient combination therapy strategies.

The capture and utilization of CO are critical for protecting the environment and ensuring the sustainable development of society. Given the challenges in separating multiple C1 products (CO, CH etc.) with similar reduction potentials, achieving high selectivity for a single reduction product while maintaining high conversion efficiency is essential.

Multifunctional Prussian blue analogs (PBAs) have received extensive attention in the detection and degradation of food hazards. However, the development of new structural adjustment strategies to further improve their performance remains a huge challenge. Herein, the "interface recombination" post-processing approach was established to regulate the structure of PBAs using a microwave-assisted solvothermal method combined with acid etching.

Introduction: The TOR signaling pathway regulator-like (TIPRL) gene plays a multifaceted role in cancer, yet its pan-cancer profile remains underexplored. This study investigates TIPRL expression across multiple cancers and its associations with survival, genetic alterations, immune infiltration, and functional pathways, providing insights into TIPRL's role as a potential prognostic and therapeutic target.

Methods: TIPRL expression and prognostic significance across tumor types were analyzed using TCGA_GTEx and CPTAC data in R software and platforms like GEPIA2 and UALCAN.

Titanium dioxide (TiO) has the disadvantages of being difficult to excite and easily agglomerating in use. The imine-linked covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have shown various excellent properties in diverse fields, but the drawbacks such as monofunctionality and poor light-corrosion resistance are the problems that need to be improved in photocatalytic applications. In this paper, the imine-linked COF (COF-Im) was prepared and then transformed into a quinoline-based COF (COF-Qui) by an aza-Diels-Alder reaction, which successfully improved the light absorption and stability of the COFs.

Background: Gastric cancer is a prevalent malignancy worldwide, with early detection and treatment being vital to improving patient outcomes. Amino acids (AAs), as essential regulators in cancer cell metabolism, are implicated in the progression and response to treatment.

Methods: This study aimed to investigate the dynamics of plasma AA levels in gastric cancer patients preoperatively, postoperatively, and following nutritional intervention, comparing them to healthy controls.

Background: Maternal hypertension and hyperglycemia are closely related but have distinct impacts on fetal growth and are managed independently. How the interdependence of blood pressure (BP) and glucose levels quantitatively influences risk patterns for abnormal fetal growth and neonatal complications remains unexplored.

Methods: Maternal BP and fasting plasma glucose (FPG) levels were measured between 20 and 28 weeks of gestation in a cohort including 56,881 singleton pregnancies.

Objective: In order to explore the differences in gut microbiota and their metabolites between patients with H-type hypertension and non-H-type hypertension.

Method: Our study included 100 hypertensive patients from the Department of Cardiology at Shaoxing Second Hospital, with 51 patients having H-type hypertension (H group) and 49 having non-H-type hypertension (non-H group). Blood samples were collected for clinical and metabolite testing, and fecal samples were collected for 16 S rRNA sequencing and metabolite testing.

Maternal exposure to a Western-type diet (WD) increases the susceptibility of adult offspring to atherosclerosis, partly because fetal endothelial cells (ECs) become dysfunctional and inflamed due to risk factors transmitted via maternal-fetal blood exchange. However, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Here we show that maternal WD accelerates atherogenesis in adult offspring mice by regulating chromatin dynamics through activator protein-1 (AP-1) in aortic ECs, inducing inflammatory memory at the chromatin level.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of non-coding RNAs involved in a variety of pathophysiological processes. We have previously reported that the abnormally high expression of miR-99a is associated with drug resistance and poor prognosis in acute myeloid leukemia. However, the impact of miR-99a on normal hematopoiesis is not well understood.

Accurate identification of programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression is crucial for anti-tumor immunotherapy. However, the heterogeneity of PD-L1 expression in tumors makes it challenging to detect by immunohistochemistry. In this study, we developed two novel PD-L1 small-molecule PET tracers, [F]LGT-1 and [F]LGT-2, to enable the non-invasive and precise measurement of PD-L1 expression in tumors through PET imaging.
