AgeMeta: Quantitative Gene Expression Database of Mammalian Aging.

AgeMeta is a database that provides systemic and quantitative description of mammalian aging at the level of gene expression. It encompasses transcriptomic changes with age across various tissues of humans, mice, and rats, based on a comprehensive meta-analysis of 122 publicly available gene expression datasets from 26 studies. AgeMeta provides an intuitive visual interface for quantification of aging-associated transcriptomics at the level of individual genes and functional groups of genes, allowing easy comparison among various species and tissues.

Open Genes-a new comprehensive database of human genes associated with aging and longevity.

The Open Genes database was created to enhance and simplify the search for potential aging therapy targets. We collected data on 2402 genes associated with aging and developed convenient tools for searching and comparing gene features. A comprehensive description of genes has been provided, including lifespan-extending interventions, age-related changes, longevity associations, gene evolution, associations with diseases and hallmarks of aging, and functions of gene products.

Distinct longevity mechanisms across and within species and their association with aging.

Lifespan varies within and across species, but the general principles of its control remain unclear. Here, we conducted multi-tissue RNA-seq analyses across 41 mammalian species, identifying longevity signatures and examining their relationship with transcriptomic biomarkers of aging and established lifespan-extending interventions. An integrative analysis uncovered shared longevity mechanisms within and across species, including downregulated Igf1 and upregulated mitochondrial translation genes, and unique features, such as distinct regulation of the innate immune response and cellular respiration.

[Pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of rebamipide. New possibilities of therapy: A review].

The MedLine database contains 570 publications, including 71 randomized clinical trials and 6 meta-analyses on the rebamipide molecule in 2022. Indications for the use of rebamipide are gastric ulcer, chronic gastritis with hyperacidityin the acute stage, erosive gastritis, prevention of damage to the gastrointestinal mucosa while taking non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, eradication of . Currently trials are studying the efficacy and safety of the drug in gouty and rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, Sjögren's syndrome, bronchial asthma, vitiligo, atherosclerosis, diseases of the kidneys and liver; using in traumatology to accelerate bone regeneration; in ophthalmology to improve the regeneration of corneal epithelium; in oncology to reduce inflammatory changes in the oral mucosa after chemoradiotherapy.

Effect of Au Nanoparticle Agglomeration on SERS Signal Amplification.

An analyzed substance's signal intensity and detection sensitivity in surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) significantly depend on the size and agglomeration degree of nanoparticles (NPs) forming the enhancing structure. Structures were manufactured by aerosol dry printing (ADP), where NPs' agglomeration depends on printing conditions and additional particle modification techniques. The influence of agglomeration degree on SERS signal enhancement was studied in three types of printed structures using the methylene blue model molecule as an analyte.
