[Role of the nuclear factor-kappa B signaling pathway in the repair of white matter injury in neonatal rats through human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell transplantation].

Objectives: To observe the reparative effects of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell (hUC-MSC) transplantation on white matter injury (WMI) in neonatal rats and explore its mechanism through the nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) signaling pathway mediated by microglial cells.

Methods: Sprague-Dawley rats, aged 2 days, were randomly divided into three groups: sham-operation,WMI, and hUC-MSC (=18 each). Fourteen days after modeling, hematoxylin-eosin staining was used to observe pathological changes in the white matter, and immunofluorescence staining was used to measure the expression level of ionized calcium-binding adapter molecule 1 (Iba1).

Bioinformatics analysis was conducted to explore the role of LAMP2A in the development and progression of colorectal cancer. Western blot(WB) was used to detect the expression of LAMP2A protein in colorectal cancer cell lines.

Actin-bundling protein fimbrin serves as a new auxin biosynthesis orchestrator in Arabidopsis root tips.

Plants delicately regulate endogenous auxin levels through the coordination of transport, biosynthesis, and inactivation, which is crucial for growth and development. While it is well-established that the actin cytoskeleton can regulate auxin levels by affecting polar transport, its potential role in auxin biosynthesis has remained largely unexplored. Using LC-MS/MS-based methods combined with fluorescent auxin marker detection, we observed a significant increase in root auxin levels upon deletion of the actin bundling proteins AtFIM4 and AtFIM5.

[Repair effect of different doses of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells on white matter injury in neonatal rats].

Objectives: To compare the repair effects of different doses of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUC-MSCs) on white matter injury (WMI) in neonatal rats.

Methods: Two-day-old Sprague-Dawley neonatal rats were randomly divided into five groups: sham operation group, WMI group, and hUC-MSCs groups (low dose, medium dose, and high dose), with 24 rats in each group. Twenty-four hours after successful establishment of the neonatal rat white matter injury model, the WMI group was injected with sterile PBS via the lateral ventricle, while the hUC-MSCs groups received injections of hUC-MSCs at different doses.

All mice were fed in a barrier environment for 1 week.

High-mobility spin-polarized two-dimensional electron gas at the interface of EuTiO/SrTiOheterostructures.

Spin polarization of two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) at the interface of EuTiO/SrTiO(STO) heterostructures has been theoretical predicted and experimentally observed via x-ray magnetic circular dichroism and polarized x-ray absorption spectroscopy, which, however, is lack of magnetotransport evidence. Here, we report the fabrication of high-quality EuTiO/STO heterostructures by depositing antiferromagnetic insulating EuTiOthin films onto STO substrates. Shubnikov-de Haas oscillation, Hall, and magnetoresistance (MR) measurements show that the interface is not only highly conducting, with electron mobility up to5.

Bioinformatic analysis of the S protein of human respiratory coronavirus.

The present study aimed to apply bioinformatic methods to analyze the structure of the S protein of human respiratory coronaviruses, including severe respiratory disease syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV), Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV), human coronavirus HKU1 (HCoV-HKU1), and severe respiratory disease syndrome coronavirus type 2 (SARS-CoV-2). We predicted and analyzed the physicochemical properties, hydrophilicity and hydrophobicity, transmembrane regions, signal peptides, phosphorylation and glycosylation sites, epitopes, functional domains, and motifs of the S proteins of human respiratory coronaviruses. All four S proteins contain a transmembrane region, which enables them to bind to host cell surface receptors.

Principle and progress of radical treatment for locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.

Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma is one of the most common malignant tumors in the digestive system in China and the world. Most patients are diagnosed as locally advanced or advanced stage. Concurrent chemoradiotherapy is the standard treatment for locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.

Transmissible Gastroenteritis Virus Nucleocapsid Protein Interacts with Na/H Exchanger 3 To Reduce Na/H Exchanger Activity and Promote Piglet Diarrhea.

Transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV) is member of the family and mainly causes acute diarrhea. TGEV infection is characterized by vomiting, watery diarrhea, and severe dehydration, resulting in high mortality rates in neonatal piglets. TGEV infection symptoms are related to an imbalance of sodium absorption in small intestinal epithelial cells; however, the etiology of sodium imbalance diarrhea caused by TGEV remains unclear.

N6-methyladenine-modified DNA was decreased in Alzheimer's disease patients.

Background: In recent years, the prevalence of Alzheimer's disease (AD) has increased, which places a great burden on society and families and creates considerable challenges for medical services. N6-methyladenine (m6A) deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) adenine methylation is a novel biomarker and is abundant in the brain, but less common in AD. We support to analyze the relationship between DNA m6A and cognition in patients with AD and normal controls (NCs) in China.

Decreased NHE3 activity in intestinal epithelial cells in TGEV and PEDV-induced piglet diarrhea.

Transmissible gastroenteritis (TGE) and porcine epidemic diarrhea (PED) are highly transmissible intestinal infections caused by transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV) and porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV), respectively. They are clinically associated with vomiting, diarrhea, and dehydration in piglets. An imbalance in Na uptake by intestinal epithelial cells causes TGEV/PEDV-induced diarrhea.

[Fabrication of Supported Titanium Xerogel Adsorbent and Performance Evaluation for Arsenite Removal].

Although the adsorption capacity of titanium xerogel(TAX) for arsenite(As(Ⅲ)) is high(254 mg·g), the adsorption rate is slow. Therefore, TAX was loaded onto activated carbon, sponge, and resin to fabricate a supported adsorbent, and the arsenite removal performance was evaluated. Except sponge, activated carbon and resin could successfully load TAX.

[Prediction of Q-markers of Astragali Radix based on network pharmacology and fingerprint].

Astragali Radix is one of the most commonly used medicinal materials. In recent years, its cultivated varieties and a variety of adulterants have flooded the market, which makes its quality uneven, and the development of quality control methods has become a research hotspot. Therefore, figuring out the quality markers of Astragali Radix is of great significance for its comprehensive evaluation.

Actin-Binding Proteins as Potential Biomarkers for Chronic Inflammation-Induced Cancer Diagnosis and Therapy.

Actin-binding proteins (ABPs), by interacting with actin, regulate the polymerization, depolymerization, bundling, and cross-linking of actin filaments, directly or indirectly, thereby mediating the maintenance of cell morphology, cell movement, and many other biological functions. Consequently, these functions of ABPs help regulate cancer cell invasion and metastasis when cancer occurs. In recent years, a variety of ABPs have been found to be abnormally expressed in various cancers, indicating that the detection and interventions of unusual ABP expression to alter this are available for the treatment of cancer.
