CTB6 Confers Cold Tolerance at the Booting Stage by Maintaining Tapetum Development in Rice.

Rice is highly sensitive to cold stress, particularly at the booting stage, which significantly threatens rice production. In this study, we cloned a gene, CTB6, encoding a lipid transfer protein involved in cold tolerance at the booting stage in rice, based on our previous fine-mapped quantitative trait locus (QTL) qCTB10-2. CTB6 is mainly expressed in the tapetum and young microspores of the anther.

Identification of Key Genes and Pathways in Lenvatinib-resistant Hepatocellular Carcinoma using Bioinformatic Analysis and Experimental Validation.

Background: Resistance to lenvatinib poses a serious threat to the therapy of patients with Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC). The mechanism by which HCC develops resistance to lenvatinib is currently unknown.

Objective: The aim of this study was to identify key genes and pathways involved in lenvatinib resistance in HCC using bioinformatic analysis and experimental validation.

Photoinitiated Thiol-Ene Click Reaction for Preparation of Highly Adhesive and Mechanically Stable Silicone Coatings for Marine Antifouling and Anticorrosion.

Marine biofouling and corrosion have become the main problems affecting the development of the marine industry. Silicone-based coatings have been widely used for antifouling and anticorrosion due to their low surface energy. However, the poor adhesion and low mechanical stability of these materials limit their application in complex marine environments.

[Progress in research of incidence of co-infection of HIV and and influencing factors].

The co-infection of HIV and (MTB) poses a severe challenge for the prevention and control of infectious disease, resulting in poor clinical outcomes of the patients and risk for wide spread. As steady progress in global health, the co-infection of HIV/MTB has been basically controlled, and the new cases are generally declining. However, its incidence remained high in resource-limited areas.

CT-based Machine Learning Radiomics Modeling: Survival Prediction and Mechanism Exploration in Ovarian Cancer Patients.

Rationale And Objectives: To create a radiomics model based on computed tomography (CT) to predict overall survival in ovarian cancer patients. To combine Rad-score with genomic data to explore the association between gene expression and Rad-score.

Materials And Methods: Imaging and clinical data from 455 patients with ovarian cancer were retrospectively analyzed.
