Background And Aim: Bile acid metabolism plays a crucial role in maintaining the delicate balance between coagulation and anticoagulation processes. However, there is a paucity of research exploring the relationship between serum total bile acids (TBA) levels and the risk of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) in Chinese individuals. The primary objective of this study is to investigate the association between TBA levels and DVT occurrence in this population.

Inflammation stimulates the hypothalamic-pituitary adrenal (HPA) axis and triggers glial neuroinflammatory phenotypes, which reduces monoamine neurotransmitters by activating indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase enzyme. These changes can induce psychiatric diseases, including anxiety. Corticotropin releasing hormone receptor 2 (CRHR2) in the HPA axis is involved in the etiology of anxiety.

Neuroinflammation induced by microglial and astrocyte polarizations may contribute to neurodegeneration and cognitive impairment. Omega (n)-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) have anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective effects, but conflicting results were reported after different n-3 PUFA treatments. This study examined both the change in glial polarizations in ageing rats and the differential effects of two omega-3 PUFAs.

Apoptosis proteins play an important role in the process of cell apoptosis, which makes the rate of cell proliferation and death reach a relative balance. The function of apoptosis protein is closely related to its subcellular location, it is of great significance to study the subcellular locations of apoptosis proteins. Many efforts in bioinformatics research have been aimed at predicting their subcellular location.

The management of human and organizational factors (HOFs) within the public sector directly concerns the efficacy of epidemic prevention and control (EPC). Insufficient examination of such HOFs has led to defective countermeasures. This study attempts to comprehensively identify the HOFs within the public sector critical to EPC and investigate their interactions with the weighted network theory.

Lithium-sulfur batteries (LSBs) hold great promise as one of the next-generation power supplies for portable electronics and electric vehicles due to their ultrahigh energy density, cost effectiveness, and environmental benignity. However, their practical application has been impeded owing to the electronic insulation of sulfur and its intermediates, serious shuttle effect, large volume variation, and uncontrollable formation of lithium dendrites. Over the past decades, many pioneering strategies have been developed to address these issues via improving electrodes, electrolytes, separators and binders.

Mobilizing the public to take anti-pandemic behavior (APB) by strengthening informational support has been recognized as an effective strategy to combat the COVID-19 pandemic. However, it remains unclear how health-related informational support from different channels affects individual factors and, thus, the adoption of different types of APB as the pandemic situation changes. To resolve this issue, we build a multiple mediation model to investigate the associations among informational support from three different channels, two individual internal factors, and two kinds of APB.

Two trinuclear copper(II) complexes with linear or triangular metal-binding pendants, [Cu(3)(L(1))](6+) (1) and [Cu(3)(L(2))](6+) (2), have been synthesized and characterized, where L(1)=N,N,N',N'-tetra[(2-pyridyl)methyl]-5,5'-bis(aminomethyl)-2,2'-dipyridyl, L(2)=N,N,N',N',N'',N''-hexa[(2-pyridyl)methyl]-1,3,5-tris(aminomethyl)-benzene. Interactions of them with calf thymus DNA have been investigated by measuring the changes in the melting temperature. The obtained DeltaT(m) values indicated that both 1 and 2 exhibited very high affinities towards DNA and strong destabilization of DNA, and were far better than their mononuclear analogues.
