MARVELD1 Promotes the Invasiveness in Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma through the Activation of Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition.

Background: MARVEL domain-containing 1 (MARVELD1) has been implicated in the progression of several cancers, but its role in pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD) remains poorly understood.

Methods: RNA-seq data from the TCGA-PAAD and GTEx-Pancreas cohorts were analyzed to assess MARVELD1 expression. Stable MARVELD1 knockdown and overexpression were conducted in BxPC3 and PANC-1 cells.

A bionic palladium metal-organic framework based on a fluorescence sensing enhancement mechanism for sensitive detection of phorate.

We have developed a biomimetic fluorescent nanoprobe (Pd-MOF) that can accurately identify phorate at a fixed wavelength for rapid, sensitive and selective detection. Pd-MOF was a nanoparticle (260.00 ± 27.

Advances in Hydrogels of Drug Delivery Systems for the Local Treatment of Brain Tumors.

The management of brain tumors presents numerous challenges, despite the employment of multimodal therapies including surgical intervention, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and immunotherapy. Owing to the distinct location of brain tumors and the presence of the blood-brain barrier (BBB), these tumors exhibit considerable heterogeneity and invasiveness at the histological level. Recent advancements in hydrogel research for the local treatment of brain tumors have sought to overcome the primary challenge of delivering therapeutics past the BBB, thereby ensuring efficient accumulation within brain tumor tissues.

Boron-Containing MOF Nanoparticles with Stable Metabolism in U87-MG Cells Combining Microdosimetry To Evaluate Relative Biological Effectiveness of Boron Neutron Capture Therapy.

Accurate prediction of the relative biological effectiveness (RBE) of boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is challenging. The therapy is different from other radiotherapy; the dynamic distribution of boron-containing compounds in tumor cells affects the therapeutic outcome considerably and hampers accurate measurement of the neutron-absorbed dose. Herein, we used boron-containing metal-organic framework nanoparticles (BMOFs) with high boron content to target U87-MG cells and maintain the concentration of the B isotope in cells.

Epidemiological investigation and prevention and control strategies of rubella in Anhui province, China, from 2012 to 2021.

Background: Rubella is a highly contagious viral infection with mild manifestations that occurs most often in children and young adults. Infection during pregnancy, especially during the first trimester, can result in an infant born with congenital rubella syndrome (CRS). The purpose of this paper is to analyze the characteristics of rubella epidemics in Anhui province from 2012 to 2021 and explore the prevention and control strategies of rubella.
