Hu'po Anshen decoction promotes fracture healing in mice with traumatic brain injury through BMP2-COX2-ATF4 signaling pathway.

Hu'po Anshen decoction (HPASD), a traditional Chinese medicine used to treat concussion and fracture, could regulate the expression of bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2). However, whether HPASD affects the fracture healing of traumatic brain injury (TBI) combined with a fracture through BMP2 and its downstream signals remains obscure. The chondrocyte-specific BMP2 conditional knockout mice and chondrocyte-specific cyclooxygenase-2 (COX2) overexpression mice were generated.

TYRO protein tyrosine kinase-binding protein predicts favorable overall survival in osteosarcoma and correlates with antitumor immunity.

To explore the prognostic significance and underlying mechanism of TYRO protein tyrosine kinase-binding protein (TYROBP) in osteosarcoma. Firstly, the expression of TYROBP was analyzed using the t test. The Kaplan-Meier plotter analysis and a receiver operating characteristic curve were performed to evaluate the influence of TYROBP on overall survival (OS).

Database Study on the Expression and Purification of Membrane Proteins.

Membrane proteins are crucial for biological processes, and many of them are important to drug targets. Understanding the three-dimensional structures of membrane proteins are essential to evaluate their bio-function and drug design. High-purity membrane proteins are important for structural determination.

Persistent luminescence-polypyrrole nanocomposite for dual-modal imaging and photothermal therapy of mammary cancer.

Multifunctional nanocomposites that possess imaging and high-performance therapeutic features are experiencing a surge in interest in the precision clinical anticancer treatment. In this work, we reported the fabrication and bio-application of a novel persistent luminescence-polypyrrole nanocomposite (LPLNP@SPP) for photoacoustic/persistent luminescence (PA/PL) dual-modal imaging guided photothermal therapy (PTT). The construction of LPLNP@SPP avoids the PL quenching of LPLNP-OH by the polypyrrole-coating, and thus enables the combination of PL and PTT.

Recent Advances of Persistent Luminescence Nanoparticles in Bioapplications.

Persistent luminescence phosphors are a novel group of promising luminescent materials with afterglow properties after the stoppage of excitation. In the past decade, persistent luminescence nanoparticles (PLNPs) with intriguing optical properties have attracted a wide range of attention in various areas. Especially in recent years, the development and applications in biomedical fields have been widely explored.

Naringin protects against steroid‑induced avascular necrosis of the femoral head through upregulation of PPARγ and activation of the Notch signaling pathway.

Naringin, a flavonoid, is the effective pharmaceutical ingredient of drynaria, with the effects of healing fractures, strengthening bones and promoting kidney function. The aim of the present study was to investigate the potential effect of naringin on steroid‑induced avascular necrosis of the femoral head (SANFH). Treatment with naringin markedly protected against the steroid‑induced decrease in serum osteocalcin levels, and the rate of osteonecrosis in a model of SANFH.

[Larix gmelinii tree-ring width chronology and its responses to climate change in Kuduer, Great Xing' an Mountains].

Based on the established tree-ring width chronology of Larix gmelinii in Kuduer, Great Xing' an Mountains, this paper analyzed the relationships between L. gmelinii tree-ring width chronology and related climatic variables, including air temperature, precipitation, and PDSI. In the study area, the L.

[Three-tunnels core decompression with implantation of bone marrow stromal cells (bMSCs) and decalcified bone matrix (DBM) for the treatment of early femoral head necrosis].

Objective: To analyse retrospectively 3-tunnels core decompression with implantation of bone marrow stromal cells(bMSCs) and decalcified bone matrix (DBM) for treatment of femoral head necrosis in early stages, and to study its therapeutic results and indications.

Methods: According to the University of Pennsyvania system of classification and staging,to treat the patients with 3-tunnels core decompression with implantation of bone marrow stromal cells (bMSCs) and decalcified bone matrix (DBM) for treatment of early femoral head necrosis. Among the total 87 patients (103 hips), the male was 71 (86 hips) and the female 16 (17 hips) with the average age of 47 years old.
