Field strains of resistant to pyrethroids were collected from three areas in Hainan Province (Haikou, Ledong, and Sanya City), and two mutations, T929I and K1774N, were detected in the voltage-gated sodium channel. In this study, the sodium channel in was first subcloned and successfully expressed in oocytes.

The prevalence patterns of high myopia in children and adolescents in southern China are unclear. Early identification of high-risk individuals is critical for reducing the occurrence and development of high myopia and avoiding the resulting complications.

A systematic evaluation of MPXV evolutionary trajectory and genetic diversity could be a timely addition to the MPXV diagnostics and prophylaxis.

VGSC's L1014F substitution results in the classic mutation, which is found in many pest species. Other substitutions of the L1014 locus, such as L1014S, L1014C, L1014W, and L1014H, were also reported.

Both the realization of the "double carbon" goal and the low-carbon economy development requires a focus on transportation CO emissions. Calculating Chinese transportation CO emissions and exploring its principles are essential for achieving high-quality development of the transportation industry. Firstly, we use a "top-down" method to assess carbon emissions from transportation operations from 2003 to 2019.

In this paper, binary blends, mainly including varying contents of polyglycolic acid (PGA) and poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA), were prepared via a melt compounding strategy. The ethylene-methyl acrylate-glycidyl methacrylate (EMA-GMA) was employed as the compatibilizer to improve the compatibility between the PGA and PVA and the polyolefin elastomer (POE) was used as toughening agent.

However, resistance to sorafenib limits its use. Bortezomib-resistant MM cells were generated and their bortezomib-resistant properties were confirmed by cell viability and apoptosis assays.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFLipid droplets (LDs) are closely connected to many physiological processes and abnormal LDs are related to many diseases. Herein, a family of two-photon fluorescence compounds based on the aurone skeleton were developed as efficient LDs imaging probes. They exhibit the obvious solvatochromism effect from blue to orange emission (∼140 nm shift) in various solvents.

Herein, a simple and rapid fluorescent switchable methodology was developed for highly selective and sensitive determination of TBHQ by utilizing the competitive interaction between the photoinduced electron transfer (PET) effect of carbon dots (CDs)/Fe(III) ions and the complexation reaction of TBHQ/Fe(III) ions. This novel fluorescent switchable sensing platform allows determining TBHQ in a wider range from 0.
