Intra-arterial tenecteplase after successful endovascular recanalisation in patients with acute posterior circulation arterial occlusion (ATTENTION-IA): multicentre randomised controlled trial.

Objective: To assess whether intra-arterial tenecteplase administered after successful endovascular recanalisation improves outcomes in patients with acute arterial occlusion of the posterior circulation.

Design: Multicentre randomised controlled trial.

Setting: 31 hospitals in China, 24 January 2023 to 24 August 2023.

Genetically predict the association between 91 human blood cell perturbation phenotypes and IBD: A Mendelian randomization study.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), encompassing Crohn disease and ulcerative colitis, is a group of persistent and recurrent gastrointestinal disorders. Despite the prevalence of these conditions, no studies have been conducted to examine the connection between altered human blood cell phenotypes and the underlying mechanisms of IBD pathogenesis. By utilizing summary statistics from genome-wide association studies, we executed a systematic two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) investigation on 91 genetically determined blood cell perturbation traits in relation to 3 separate IBD phenotypes.

CISD2-mediated mitochondrial dysfunction and iron redistribution contributes to ferroptosis in arsenic-induced nonalcoholic steatohepatitis.

Arsenic in the environment, such as sodium arsenic (NaAsO), is a frequently occurring hazard that has been linked to nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Our prior research established the involvement of ferroptosis in arsenic-induced NASH, but the precise underlying mechanisms remain elusive. Here, we found that exposure to NaAsO had a suppressive effect on the expression of CDGSH iron-sulfur domain-containing protein 2 (CISD2) at the protein and gene levels, and overexpression of CISD2 inhibited NaAsO-induced ferroptosis and NASH.

Standard: Human gastric organoids.

Organoid technology provides a transformative approach to understand human physiology and pathology, offering valuable insights for scientific research and therapeutic development. Human gastric organoids, in particular, have gained significant interest for applications in disease modeling, drug discovery, and studies of tissue regeneration and homeostasis. However, the lack of standardized quality control has limited their extensive clinical applications.

Identification of Lauric Acid as a Potent Sodium Channel Na1.5 Blocker from Compound Chinese Medicine Wenxin Keli.

Purpose: The major cardiac voltage-gated sodium channel Na1.5 (I) is essential for cardiac action potential initiation and subsequent propagation. Compound Chinese medicine Wenxin Keli (WXKL) has been shown to suppress arrhythmias and heart failure.
