The Curcuma genus is extensively used in food, traditional medicine, and spice, however, nine closely related varieties are frequently misidentified, leading to mislabeling and adulteration. This study presents an innovative and practical strategy for precise differentiation of nine Curcumae varieties-eight authentic and one counterfeit. For the first time, comprehensive characterizations were conducted using LC-Orbitrap MS, and 702 non-volatiles were annotated, laying a groundwork for marker selection and identification.

Lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries have attracted significant attention due to their high theoretical energy density, low cost and environmental friendliness, which are considered one of the most promising candidates for next-generation energy storage devices. However, the sluggish kinetics associated with sulfur oxidation-reduction reactions and the detrimental shuttle effect caused by lithium polysulfides (LiPSs) significantly impacts the electrochemical performance of Li-S batteries. In this work, Co single-atom catalyst (Co-NC) on an ordered macro-microporous structure are designed, and the catalyst are coated onto 2325 separator.

Chromosomal rearrangements (CR) initiate leukemogenesis in approximately 50 % of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients; however, limited targeted therapies exist due to a lack of accurate molecular and genetic biomarkers of refractory mechanisms during treatment. Here, we investigated the pathological landscape of treatment resistance and relapse in 16 CR-AML patients by monitoring cytogenetic, RNAseq, and genome-wide changes among newly diagnosed, refractory, and relapsed AML. First, in FISH-diagnosed KMT2A (MLL gene, 11q23)/AFDN (AF6, 6q27)-rearrangement, RNA-sequencing identified an unknown CCDC32 (15q15.

Silencers, the yin to enhancers' yang, play a pivotal role in fine-tuning gene expression throughout the genome. However, despite their recognized importance, comprehensive identification of these regulatory elements in the genome is still in its early stages. We developed a method called Ss-STARR-seq to directly determine the activity of silencers in the whole genome.

The chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is easily diagnosed by laboratory examination, however, rare BCR-ABL1 mRNA transcripts variants, such as e1a3 present diagnosis and therapeutic challenges. This case report details the diagnosis and management of a CML patient with the e1a3 transcript by FISH and RT-PCR. Following initial diagnosis, the patient was treated with the tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) Flumatinib.
