Obesity is a complex disease marked by increased adiposity and impaired metabolic function. While diet and lifestyle are primary causes, endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs), such as bisphenol A (BPA), significantly contribute to obesity. BPA, found in plastic consumer products, accumulates in the hypothalamus and dysregulates energy homeostasis by disrupting the neuropeptide Y (NPY)/agouti-related peptide (AgRP) and pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) neurons.

The challenge of soil salinization and alkalization, with its significant impact on crop productivity, has raised growing concerns with global population growth and enhanced environmental degradation. Although arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and calcium ions (Ca) are known to enhance plant resistance to stress, their combined effects on perennial ryegrass' tolerance to salt and alkali stress and the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. This study aimed to elucidate the roles of Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungus Rhizophagus irregularis and exogenous Ca application in molecular and physiological responses to salt-alkali stress.

Previous studies demonstrated that EV71-infected cells secrete extracellular vesicles (EVs), facilitating the transfer of viral components to recipient cells and thereby promoting virus spread. Considering lipid signaling plays a crucial role in EVs-mediated cell-to-cell communication, we compared the lipid profile of EVs secreted from uninfected and EV71-infected cells (EVs-Mock and EVs-EV71) using the human rhabdomyosarcoma (RD) cell model. These two groups of EVs were purified by using size exclusion chromatography (SEC), respectively, and evaluated by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), nanoparticle tracking technology (NTA), and Western blotting (WB).

This article focuses on the issue of novel dynamic event-triggered consensus control of multiagent systems (MASs) with denial-of-service (DoS) attacks. Different from the conventional Markovian switching topologies, the generally uncertain semi-Markovian (GUSM) switching topologies with partially unknown elements and time-dependent uncertainties are constructed for the leader-following MASs by considering the equipment performance and external uncertain environment influence. To save communication resources, the novel dynamic memory event-triggered strategy (DMETS) is presented to decrease the frequency of communication between agents.

Cellular microRNAs (miRNAs) can be selectively secreted or retained, adding another layer to their critical role in regulating human health and disease. To date, select RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) have been proposed to be a mechanism underlying miRNA localization, but the overall relevance of RBPs in systematic miRNA sorting remains unclear. This study profiles intracellular and small extracellular vesicles' (sEVs) miRNAs in NPY-expressing hypothalamic neurons.

Neuropeptide Y (Npy) is an abundant neuropeptide expressed in the central and peripheral nervous systems. NPY-secreting neurons in the hypothalamic arcuate nucleus regulate energy homeostasis, and Npy mRNA expression is regulated by peripheral nutrient and hormonal signals like leptin, interleukin-6 (IL-6), and fatty acids. This study demonstrates that IL-6, which phosphorylates tyrosine 705 (Y705) of STAT3, decreased Npy mRNA in arcuate immortalized hypothalamic neurons.

The hypothalamus is a vital regulator of energy homeostasis. Orexigenic neuropeptide Y (NPY) neurons within the hypothalamus can stimulate feeding and suppress energy expenditure, and dysregulation of these neurons may contribute to obesity. We previously reported that bisphenol A (BPA), an endocrine disruptor with obesogenic properties, alters transcription in hypothalamic neurons by inducing oxidative stress.

In order to avoid the complicated control and fussy procedure associated with foreign species and templates in conventional synthesis strategies, a simple reactant conversion-intercalation strategy is developed to synthesize interlayer-expanded MoS (E-MoS) by employing ammonium thiocyanate converted from a thiourea reactant as intercalator. In this strategy, the thiourea plays a bifunctionality role as reactant and intercalator precursor to ensure embedding into the interlayers of MoS to expand the interlayer spacing. The optimal E-MoS obtained presents superior supercapacitor performance with a specific capacity of 246.
