High entropy alloys (HEAs) are promising heterocatalysts because of their unique physicochemical properties, but research on HEA-catalyzed tandem reactions is lacking. Moreover, limited research on HEAs for molecular transformation has hindered their development. Herein, an unsupported nanoporous HEA Al-Pt-Pd-Ru (HEANPore) prepared using a top-down dealloying method is reported.

We report a case of a 54-year-old female patient who presented with multiple nodules in the right lung discovered during a routine examination, persisting for six months. The patient had three central lesions in the right lung's upper, middle, and lower lobes.

Chaperonin-containing tailless complex polypeptide 1 subunit 3 (CCT3) acts as an oncogene in various tumors, whereas its effect on BCa remains unknown. We identified the ferroptosis-associated differentially expressed genes through bioinformatic analysis and selected CCT3 for further verification.

Selinexor treats lung cancer, particularly non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and small cell lung cancer (SCLC). This review summarizes the prevalence and types of lung cancer and emphasizes the challenges associated with current treatments like resistance and limited effectiveness. Selinexor is a selective inhibitor of nuclear export (SINE) that has emerged as a potential therapy that targets the nuclear export of tumor suppressor proteins.

However, whether HOXC6 performs oncogenic effects in PCa via METTL3-mediated N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification is not yet reported. The Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8), 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EdU), flow cytometry, transwell, scratch, sphere formation assays were applied for cell growth, invasion, migration and stemness analyses.

Radiation-induced kidney injury is a common side effect of radiotherapy, as the pelvic region is in close proximity to the kidneys, posing a risk of inducing radiation-induced kidney injury when treating any pelvic malignancies with radiotherapy. This type of injury typically manifests as chronic kidney disease a few months after radiotherapy, with the potential to progress to end-stage renal disease. Radiation-induced damage involves various components of the kidney, including glomeruli, tubules, interstitium, and extracellular matrix.

TCP family as plant specific transcription factor, plays an important role in different aspects of plant development. In order to screen TCP family members in tobacco, the homologous sequences of tobacco and TCP family were identified by genome-wide homologous alignment. The physicochemical properties, phylogenetic relationships and -acting elements were analyzed by bioinformatics.

This study grouped patients with stage III-N2 lung adenocarcinoma by propensity score matching (PSM) to evaluate the impact of SKN2 on the prognosis of these patients.
Methods: The clinical data for patients who underwent radical lobectomy and had a postoperative pathological diagnosis of stage III-N2 lung adenocarcinoma at our centre from 2016 to 2018 were collected, and PSM was performed at a ratio of 1:1.
Background: It is still unclear whether stage I lung adenocarcinoma patients with tumour spread through air spaces (STAS) can benefit from postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy (ACT) after lobectomy. This study investigated the effect of ACT on the postoperative survival of patients with stage I (STAS) lung adenocarcinoma.
Methods: We retrospectively analysed the clinical data of stage I (STAS) invasive lung adenocarcinoma patients who underwent lobectomy in the Department of Thoracic Surgery of our hospital from January 1, 2013 to January 1, 2016.
Fluoride is capable of inducing immunotoxicity, but its molecular mechanisms remain elusive. This study aimed to explore the roles of Protein kinase receptor-like ER kinase (PERK) and inositol requiring enzyme 1 (IRE1) signaling pathways in excessive fluoride-induced immunotoxicity, focusing on the regulatory roles of these two pathways in cell division and apoptosis. Firstly, we assessed the changes in cell division and apoptosis in rats exposed to 0, 50, or 100 mg/L fluoride, and detected the expression of PERK and IRE1 signaling-related proteins in spleen.

A new model is multiple nonlinear equation systems by comprehensive consideration of axial load of tubular string, internal and external fluid pressure, normal pressure between the tubular and well wall, and friction and viscous friction of fluid flowing. The varied temperature and pressure fields were researched by the coupled differential equations concerning mass, momentum, and energy equations instead of traditional methods.
