Avian influenza virus (AIV) infection and vaccination against live attenuated infectious bronchitis virus (aIBV) are frequent in poultry worldwide. Here, we evaluated the clinical effect of H9N2 subtype AIV and QX genotype aIBV co-infection in specific-pathogen-free (SPF) white leghorn chickens and explored the potential mechanisms underlying the observed effects using by 4D-FastDIA-based proteomics. The results showed that co-infection of H9N2 AIV and QX aIBV increased mortality and suppressed the growth of SPF chickens.

In recent years, clinical cases of inclusion body hepatitis (IBH) and hydropericardium syndrome (HPS) have been emerging and increasing in chicken flocks worldwide. Mixed infections with 2 or more fowl adenovirus (FAdV) serotypes were common in these cases. Herein, we collected a clinical sample that was positive for FAdV from 40-day-old broilers with IBH and HPS symptoms in Shandong province of China and determined the complete genome of FAdVs on the Illumina HiSeq4000 platform.

The process of swine manure and wheat straw aerobic composting was examined, with exogenous microbial agents being added in treatment group. The physicochemical properties were measured by conventional methods, and bacterial community characteristics were investigated by high throughput sequencing analysis. Exogenous microbial agents increased high-temperature duration, reduced pH value at the end of fermentation stage, augmented total nitrogen content, reduced C/N ratio.

Nitrogen-rich transition-metal nitrides hold great promise to be the next-generation catalysts for clean and renewable energy applications. However, incorporation of nitrogen into the crystalline lattices of transition metals is thermodynamically unfavorable at atmospheric pressure; most of the known transition metal nitrides are nitrogen-deficient with molar ratios of N:metal less than a unity. In this work, we have formulated a high-pressure route for the synthesis of a nitrogen-rich molybdenum nitride through a solid-state ion-exchange reaction.

The T42 peptide, generated from two active fragments of tumstatin, has been shown to have anti‑tumor activity. The adenoviral vector is the most frequently used vector in research and clinical trials for gene therapy. In the present study, the anti‑tumor activity of the T42 peptide and quadruple T42 (4xT42) peptide adenoviral vectors were elucidated for the first time, to the best of our knowledge.

The effective treatment of central nervous system diseases is a major challenge due to the presence of the blood-brain barrier (BBB). P-aminophenyl-α-d-mannopyranoside (MAN), a kind of mannose analog, was conjugated onto the surface of liposomes (MAN-LIP) to enhance the brain delivery. In this study, we investigated the brain distribution of MAN-LIP based on our previous studies and tried to explore the relationship between the distribution of MAN-LIP and glucose transporters (GLUTs) on the cells.

MicroRNA-1 (miR-1) has been found in cardiac and skeletal tissues. It is overexpressed in ischemic cardiac tissues. Down-regulation of miR-1 could relieve arrhythmogenesis by the anti-miR-1 antisense oligonucleotides (AMO-1).

The aim of this study was to stabilize all-trans-retinol (RE) by complexification with chitosan derivatives through H-bonding. Succinated chitosan (CHI-succ) with three different degrees (5, 10, 20 mol%) of succinylation were synthesized to form complexes with RE. Various weight ratios (w/w) of CHI-succ/RE complexes were prepared and characterized to produce stable complexes in nanometer size.

Article Synopsis
  • Puerarin can help reduce brain damage from ischemia-reperfusion injury, but it struggles to cross the blood-brain barrier due to its properties.
  • Researchers created puerarin-loaded nanoparticles with the help of HP-β-CD and gelatin to enhance its solubility and entrapment in the brain.
  • The study found that these nanoparticles significantly reduced brain infarction and improved brain function recovery compared to traditional puerarin treatments.

The synergistic effects of tamoxifen on the sensitivity of MCF-7 cells to daunorubicin have been reported. Whether the effects of daunorubicin on MCF-7/adr cells can be improved by tamoxifen in liposomes and how tamoxifen changes daunorubicin's behavior in vivo remains unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of tamoxifen on the uptake and biodistribution of daunorubicin liposomes by breast-cancer-resistant MCF-7/adr cells in vitro and in vivo.

As an alternative to the partial oxidation of methane to synthesis gas followed by methanol synthesis and the subsequent generation of olefins, we have studied the production of light olefins (ethylene and propylene) from the reaction of methyl bromide over various modified microporous silico-aluminophosphate molecular-sieve catalysts with an emphasis on SAPO-34. Some comparisons of methyl halides and methanol as reaction intermediates in their conversion to olefins are presented. Increasing the ratio of Si/Al and incorporation of Co into the catalyst framework improved the methyl bromide yield of light olefins over that obtained using standard SAPO-34.

Objective: We cloned and expressed chicken interferon-gamma gene (chIFN-gamma), and detected the bioactivity of chIFN-gamma expressed in Escherichia coli (E. coli).

Methods: The chIFN-gamma mature protein gene was amplified by RT-PCR from spleen lymphocytes of chicken which were stimulated with concanavalin A (ConA) and then cloned into the prokaryotic expression vector pET-32a ( + ).

The reaction of methane and bromine is a mildly exothermic and exergonic example of free radical alkane activation. We show here that the reaction of methane and bromine (CH4:Br2 > or = 1) may yield either a kinetically or a thermodynamically determined bromomethane product distribution and proceeds in two main phases between 450 and 550 degrees C under ambient pressure on the laboratory time scale. This is in contrast to the highly exothermic methane fluorination or chlorination reactions, which give kinetic product distributions, and to the endergonic iodination of methane, which yields an equilibrium distribution of iodomethanes.
