[Salidroside alleviates high glucose and ethanol-induced pyroptosis in insulinoma cells].

This study established a pyroptosis injury model by stimulating insulinoma cells(INS-1) of rats with high glucose(HG) and observed the impact of additional ethanol(ET) exposure on cell pyroptosis, as well as the intervention effect of salidroside(SAL). INS-1 cells were cultured and divided into a normal control group(NG), an HG group, an HG + ET(100 mmol·L~(-1)) group, and an HG + ET + SAL(1-100 μmol·L~(-1)) group. After 72 hours of treatment, cell viability was assessed using the cell counting kit-8(CCK-8) assay.

Dibromomethane-Triggered Electrochemical Cyclization of Enaminones with Amidines for the Synthesis of 5-Acylimidazoles.

An electrochemical tandem cyclization of enaminones with amidines has been reported for the first time using dibromomethane as an initiating agent in an undivided cell. Following this protocol, a vast variety of polysubstituted 5-acylimidazoles were obtained in moderate to good yields without the use of external oxidants. Mechanistic studies indicate that the bromide anion, electroreductively generated from dibromomethane, acts as a redox mediator to complete the catalytic cycle.

Enhancing the viscoelastic properties of bacterial cellulose hydrogels through ultrasonic and enzymatic modification of xyloglucan.

Bacterial cellulose (BC) hydrogels exhibit nanofibril porous network with good viscoelasticity for use as food ingredients and medical materials. Xyloglucan (XG), a hemicellulose with branching residues, can hybridize with BC to improve the hydrogel's extensibility. Thus, modifying the molecular structure of XG can fine-tune the viscoelastic properties of BC hydrogels.

[Diagnosis and management of work related musculoskeletal disorders as occupational diseases in Germany].

This article introduces the occupational disease diagnosis of work-related musculoskeletal disorders such as lumbar and spinal injuries in Germany, and focuses on the research and standard values of the maximum pressure tolerance of intervertebral discs. This article mainly introduces the dose model limits and their applications proposed by the Mainz Dortmund Dosis model (MDD), the judgment of the German Social Court (Bundessozialgericht, BSG), and the German Spinal Research Re evaluation (Deutsche Wirbels ulentudieⅡ, DWSⅡ) ; X-ray manifestations and measurements of intervertebral disc injury; Problems in actual cases and diagnosis. In order to provide reference and inspiration for the occupational diseases diagnosis of work related musculoskeletal disorders in China.

Innovative strategies for the discovery of new drugs against alopecia areata: taking aim at the immune system.

Introduction: The autoimmune hair loss condition alopecia areata (AA) exacts a substantial psychological and socioeconomic toll on patients. Biotechnology companies, dermatology clinics, and research institutions are dedicated to understanding AA pathogenesis and developing new therapeutic approaches. Despite recent efforts, many knowledge gaps persist, and multiple treatment development avenues remain unexplored.

Targeted aggregation of PETase towards surface of Stenotrophomonas pavanii for degradation of PET microplastics.

Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is one of the most widely used plastics, but its fragmentation into microplastics poses significant environmental challenges. The recycling of PET microplastics is hindered by their low solubility and widespread dispersion in the environment, making microbial in-situ degradation a promising solution. However, existing PET-degrading strains exhibited the limited effectiveness, primarily due to the diffusion of secreted hydrolases away from the PET surface.

Efficacy and safety of BF839 for pediatric autism spectrum disorder: a randomized clinical trial.

Background: The clinical utility of in treating autism spectrum disorder (ASD) remains unclear. Therefore, this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study aimed to explore the therapeutic effects and safety of BF839 in the treatment of pediatric ASD.

Methods: We examined 60 children aged 2-10 years diagnosed with ASD, and participants received either BF839 powder (10 g/bar with ≥10 CFU/bar of viable bacteria, two bars/day) or placebo for 16 weeks.

Decoding the genomic enigma: Approaches to studying extrachromosomal circular DNA.

Extrachromosomal circular DNA (eccDNA), a pervasive yet enigmatic component of the eukaryotic genome, exists autonomously from its chromosomal counterparts. Ubiquitous in eukaryotes, eccDNA plays a critical role in the orchestration of cellular processes and the etiology of diseases, particularly cancers. However, the full scope of its influence on health and disease remains elusive, presenting a rich vein of research yet to be mined.
