NH600001 is a new general anaesthetic drug with a structure similar to etomidate. The objective of this study was to investigate the relationship between concentrations of NH600001 and sedation efficacy based on data from phase I-II studies and factors influencing the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of NH600001. The dataset consisted of 2 phase I studies in healthy subjects and 1 phase II study in patients undergoing gastroscopy.

To mitigate these challenges, the development of engineered implants with spatiotemporal regulation capabilities, designed to inhibit bacterial survival and modulate immune responses in the early stage, while promoting bone defect healing in the late stage is proposed. The implants are functionalized with ε-poly-l-lysine-phenylboronic acid (PP) via dynamic boronic ester bonds, which facilitate its release through a reactive oxygen species (ROS) and pH-responsive strategy, thereby establishing an antibacterial microenvironment on and around the implants.

Mining for genes associated with ripening periods and fruit color traits is crucial for plant genetics and for the improvement of external fruit quality traits. The present study identified a novel navel orange accession, designated as Ganhong, with early ripening and deep red fruit traits.

However, most current research focuses on one or two breeds, and lacks a comprehensive representation of the genetic diversity across multiple Tibetan sheep breeds. This study aims to fill this gap by investigating the genetic structure, diversity and high-altitude adaptation of 6 Tibetan sheep breeds using whole-genome resequencing data.
