The NACHT, leucine-rich repeat, and pyrin domain-containing protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome plays an essential role in myocardial infarction (MI) development. Up to now, no bibliometric analyses of NLRP3 in MI have been performed.

Forgiveness in the HPA axis: The roles of cumulative genetic effects and cortisol reactivity in trait and situational forgiveness.

Trait and situational forgiveness are vital coping mechanisms and stress responses in the face of interpersonal transgressions. The hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis plays a key role in regulating these strategies in response to such transgressions. Building on this foundation, Study 1 examined the impact of cumulative genetic effects of the HPA axis (i.

Programmed cardiomyocyte death in myocardial infarction.

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a leading cause of human mortality worldwide, with patients often at high risk of heart failure (HF) in myocardial infarction (MI), a common form of CVD that results in cardiomyocyte death and myocardial necrosis due to inadequate myocardial perfusion. As terminally differentiated cells, cardiomyocytes possess a severely limited capacity for regeneration, and an excess of dead cardiomyocytes will further stress surviving cells, potentially exacerbating to more extensive heart disease. The article focuses on the relationship between programmed cell death (PCD) of cardiomyocytes, including different forms of apoptosis, necrosis, and autophagy, and MI, as well as the potential application of these mechanisms in the treatment of MI.

OCT as both a shape sensor and a tomographic imager for large-scale freeform robotic scanning.

To overcome the limitations of optical coherence tomography (OCT) in imaging large-scale freeform objects, we propose a methodological framework that utilizes OCT as both a shape sensor and a tomographic imager in robotic scanning. Our approach integrates a deep-learning-based surface detection algorithm to counter OCT artifacts and an adaptive robotic arm pose adjustment algorithm for sensing and imaging uneven objects. We demonstrate the effectiveness and superiority of our method on various objects, achieving high-resolution, large-scale tomographic imaging that adeptly manages OCT artifacts and surface irregularities.

A two-sample study on the relationship between polygenic risk score of serotonergic polymorphisms and social phobia: Interpersonal adaptability as a mediator.

Backgrounds: The influence of serotonin function on social phobia has been well-documented, yet the polygenic risk score of serotonergic polymorphisms for social phobia remains unclear.

Methods: We assessed two aspects of social phobia (i.e.

Computer-generated holography enables high-uniformity, high-efficiency depth-of-focus extension in endoscopic OCT.

Fiber-form optics extends the high-resolution tomographic imaging capabilities of optical coherence tomography (OCT) to the inside of the human body, i.e., endoscopic OCT.

Macrophages after myocardial infarction: Mechanisms for repairing and potential as therapeutic approaches.

Macrophages - one of the crucial immune cells, are recruited to the cardiac tissue by chemokines, cytokines and upregulated endothelial adhesion molecules after myocardial infarction (MI). During the course of inflammation in the cardiac tissue, necrotic cells and matrix debris is phagocytosed by M1 macrophages. During the resolution phase of cardiac inflammation, M2 macrophages promote cardiac recovery.

Hierarchical Controlled Joint Remote Implementation of the Partially Unknown Operations of m Qudits via m High-Dimensional Entangled States.

We present a protocol for the hierarchical controlled joint remote implementation of the partially unknown operations of m qudits belonging to some restricted sets by using m multiparticle high-dimensional entangled states as the quantum channel. All the senders share the information of the partially unknown operations and cooperate with each other to implement the partially unknown operations on the remote receiver's quantum system. The receivers are hierarchized in accordance with their abilities to reconstruct the desired state.

The Multifaceted Roles of Hippo-YAP in Cardiovascular Diseases.

The Hippo-yes-associated protein (YAP) signaling pathway plays a crucial role in cell proliferation, differentiation, and death. It is known to have impact on the progression and development of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) as well as in the regeneration of cardiomyocytes (CMs). However, further research is needed to understand the molecular mechanisms by which the Hippo-YAP pathway affects the pathological processes of CVDs in order to evaluate its potential clinical applications.

Learning-based distortion correction enables proximal-scanning endoscopic OCT elastography.

Proximal rotary scanning is predominantly used in the clinical practice of endoscopic and intravascular OCT, mainly because of the much lower manufacturing cost of the probe compared to distal scanning. However, proximal scanning causes severe beam stability issues (also known as non-uniform rotational distortion, NURD), which hinders the extension of its applications to functional imaging, such as OCT elastography (OCE). In this work, we demonstrate the abilities of learning-based NURD correction methods to enable the imaging stability required for intensity-based OCE.

Rejuvenation of young blood on aging organs: Effects, circulating factors, and mechanisms.

Aging causes degenerative changes in organs, leading to a decline in physical function. Over the past two decades, researchers have made significant progress in understanding the rejuvenating effects of young blood on aging organs, benefiting from heterochronic parabiosis models that connect the blood circulation of aged and young rodents. It has been discovered that young blood can partially rejuvenate organs in old animals by regulating important aging-related signaling pathways.

Serum vitamin E levels and chronic inflammatory skin diseases: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: Vitamin E has long been linked to skin health, including all of its possible functions in cosmetic products, to its roles in membrane integrity and even the aging process. However, reports on the relationship between serum vitamin E levels and the risk of chronic inflammatory skin diseases have been inconsistent. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the association between serum vitamin E levels and chronic inflammatory skin diseases.

Chromosome-scale genome assembly of areca palm (Areca catechu).

Areca palm (Areca catechu L.; family Arecaceae) is an important tropical medicinal crop and is also used for masticatory and religious purposes in Asia. Improvements to areca properties made by traditional breeding tools have been very slow, and further advances in its cultivation and practical use require genomic information, which is still unavailable.

Soluble microbial products from the white-rot fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium as the bioflocculant for municipal wastewater treatment.

Soluble microbial products (SMP), a type of polymers released from microbial metabolism and decay, show great potential for wastewater treatment as bioflocculants; however, biogenic flocculant utilization is currently limited to bacterial SMP. In this study, SMP produced by Phanerochaete chrysosporium BKMF-1767 (SMP-P) was investigated to determine the application potential of fungal SMP. SMP-P exhibited high flocculation activity in kaolin suspension at a dosage range of 0.

Taurine ameliorates axonal damage in sciatic nerve of diabetic rats and high glucose exposed DRG neuron by PI3K/Akt/mTOR-dependent pathway.

Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is a common complication of diabetes and axonopathy is its main pathological feature. Previous studies suggested an advantage of taurine against diabetes. However, there are few reports which study the effect of taurine against axonopathy.
