Advances of microalgae-based enhancement strategies in industrial flue gas treatment: From carbon sequestration to lipid production.

The acceleration of industrial development and urban expansion has led to a significant increase in flue gas emissions, posing a significant risk to human health and ecosystems. Recent studies have elucidated the significant potential of microalgae in the domain of sustainable industrial flue gas treatment. However, the inherent multifaceted factors within flue gas exert inhibitory effects on microalgal growth, thereby diminishing the overall system efficacy.

Semaphorin 7a participants in pterygium by regulating vascular endothelial growth factor.

Aim: To investigate the relationship between semaphorin 7a expression and cell proliferation and migration in pterygium fibroblasts.

Methods: Twenty-six patients with surgically diagnosed pterygium were enrolled, including 15 cases of primary pterygium and 11 cases of recurrent pterygium. In addition, 12 cases of normal conjunctival tissue were collected.
