Article Synopsis
  • A six-week trial assessed the potential of cottonseed oil (CSO) as a replacement for fish oil (FO) in swimming crab diets, using three diets with varying CSO proportions (0%, 50%, and 100%).
  • Crabs on the all-CSO diet (CSO-100) showed significantly lower growth and survival rates, alongside notable changes in blood chemistry and fatty acid profiles.
  • The study found that while dietary FO replacement with CSO altered muscle composition and gene expression related to lipid metabolism, increased CSO levels also led to changes in muscle volatile substances.

Infection with porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) results in enormous economic damage to the global swine industry. PEDV starts its life cycle by binding to the receptors of host cells and adsorbing onto the cellular surfaces. However, it is still unknown how PEDV adsorbs onto the surface of host cells and the mechanism beneath the interplay of host cell transmembrane protein with PEDV proteins.

The importance of CD4 T cells in cancer immunotherapy has gained increasing recognition. Particularly, a specific subset of CD4 T cells coexpressing the T helper type 1 (Th1) and Th17 markers has demonstrated remarkable antitumor potential. However, the underlying mechanisms governing the differentiation of these cells and their subsequent antitumor responses remain incompletely understood.

Background And Aims: Although numerous noninvasive diagnostic methods have been developed to predict liver fibrosis in metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), they lack markers for predicting lobular inflammation, hepatocellular ballooning, or changes related to metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH). We examined serum cytokeratin 18 fragment (CK18F) as a noninvasive marker for predicting treatment response and "at-risk MASH" and "MASH resolution" in patients with MASLD.

Methods: One-hundred-and-ten patients with MASLD who underwent repeated biopsy were enrolled (age, 4 [0.

  • Bendamustine-rituximab (BR) therapy shows effectiveness in treating elderly patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), especially when other treatments are unsuitable.
  • The study investigates the mechanisms of BR therapy through various methods, including RNA sequencing and Crispr technology, revealing that BR not only kills tumor cells by causing apoptosis but also activates the immune system via the cGAS-STING pathway.
  • The findings indicate that BR creates an inflammatory tumor environment, suggesting that combining BR with other therapies could enhance treatment outcomes for patients with DLBCL.

With the increasing use of high-fat diets (HFD), fatty liver disease has become common in fish, and fucoidan is of interest as a natural sulfated polysaccharide with lipid-lowering activity. To explore the molecular regulatory mechanisms of fucoidan's alleviation of HFD-induced lipid deposition in liver, black seabream (Acanthopagrus schlegelii) was used to construct in vivo and in vitro HFD models. In vivo HFD stimulated the protein kinase RNA-like endoplasmic reticulum kinase (Perk) pathway, and up-regulated proliferator-activated receptor gamma (Pparγ) nuclear translocation and expression of lipogenic genes, while it down-regulated Ppar alpha (Pparα) nuclear translocation and expression of lipolytic genes.

Article Synopsis
  • Treh is essential for ovarian development as it converts trehalose into glucose, impacting energy supply.
  • Juvenile hormone (JH) influences Treh2 activity, with research showing that peaks in Treh2 transcription and activity align with increased JH levels post-emergence.
  • JH activates Treh2 through phosphorylation and promotes its interaction with trehalose transporter HaTreT, thus regulating trehalose and glucose levels crucial for ovarian development.

Background: Silent information regulator protein 1 (Sirt1) is crucial in regulating lipid metabolism, but its specific role and mechanism in fish hepatic lipotoxic injury remain undefined.

Objectives: This study aimed to elucidate the regulatory role of Sirt1 and the underlying mechanisms in dietary lipid-induced hepatic lipotoxic injury in a marine teleost black seabream.

Methods: Black seabream were fed a control diet (12% lipid level), high-fat diet (HFD) [18% lipid level, oleic acid (OA)-rich], or HFD supplemented with 0.

OC-2 plays a vital role in tumor growth, metastasis and angiogenesis, but molecular mechanism how OC-2 regulates angiogenic factors is unclear. We found that OC-2 was highly expressed in HepG2, COLO, MCF-7, SKOV3 cells and rectum carcinoma tissues, and angiogenic factors levels were positively related to OC-2. Then OC-2 KD inhibited the tumor growth, metastasis and angiogenesis process in vitro and vivo.

In advanced batteries, interphases serve as the key component in stabilizing the electrolyte with reactive electrode materials far beyond thermodynamic equilibria. While an active interphase facilitates the transport of working ions, an inactive interphase obstructs ion flow, constituting the primary barrier to the realization of battery chemistries. Here, a successful transformation of a traditionally inactive passivating layer on Mg-metal anode, characteristic of Mg-metal batteries with typical carbonate electrolytes, into an active and robust interphase in the Li-metal scenario is presented.

Oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is a widely employed half-electrode reaction in oxygen electrochemistry, in applications such as hydrogen evolution, carbon dioxide reduction, ammonia synthesis, and electrocatalytic hydrogenation. Unfortunately, its slow kinetics limits the commercialization of such applications. It is therefore highly imperative to develop highly robust electrocatalysts with high activity, long-term durability, and low noble-metal contents.

The control incorporation of metals in silica hollow spheres (SHSs) may bring new functions to silica mesoporous structures for applications including catalysis, sensing, molecular delivery, adsorption filtration, and storage. However, the strategies for incorporating metals, whether through pre-loading in the hollow interior or post-encapsulation in the mesoporous shell, still face challenges in achieving quantitative doping of various metals and preventing metal aggregation or channel blockage during usage. In this study, we explored the doping of different metals into silica hollow spheres based on the dissolution-regrowth process of silica.
