Unraveling the Stoichiometric Interactions and Synergism between Ligand-Protected Gold Nanoparticles and Proteins.

Nanomaterials that engage in well-defined and tunable interactions with proteins are pivotal for the development of advanced applications. Achieving a precise molecular-level understanding of nano-bio interactions is essential for establishing these interactions. However, such an understanding remains challenging and elusive.

Neural underpinnings of a two-phase memory suppression process in the neural response to self-related and observed perspective views.

Individuals often actively suppress intrusive memories to alleviate the distress they cause and maintain mental well-being. However, those with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) often exhibit difficulties particularly in inhibiting or suppressing negative memories compared to individuals without PTSD. These memories can involve a physical threat either to the individual themselves or to others.

Association between type 2 diabetes mellitus and Klebsiella pneumoniae colonization: construction of nomogram model.

Objective: To investigate the association between the basic and clinical characteristics of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and their susceptibility to Klebsiella pneumoniae colonization (KPC). Additionally, a clinical prediction model was developed to identify high-risk patients for KPC.

Methods: Data from 486 T2DM patients who visited Shanghai Fifth People's Hospital from December 2020 to December 2022 were retrospectively collected.

GILT stabilizes cofilin to promote the metastasis of prostate cancer.

Gamma-interferon-induced lysosomal thiol reductase (GILT), known for catalyzing disulfide bond reduction, is involved in various physiological processes. While the involvement of GILT in the development of various tumors has been demonstrated, the mechanisms underlying its regulation in prostate cancer (PCa) are not fully understood. In the present study, we confirmed that GILT was significantly upregulated in PCa and facilitated tumor metastasis.
