The Ultramorphology and Sexual Dimorphism of Antennae and Sensilla in the Pale Grass Blue, (Lepidoptera: Lycaenidae).

The pale grass blue, , is a small lycaenid butterfly widely distributed across Asia. Due to its exclusively diurnal lifestyle and conspicuous sexual dimorphism in wing coloration, vision has traditionally been regarded as the primary sensory system driving various behaviors. However, non-visual sensory systems related to sex-specific behavioral responses, such as antennae, have received far less attention.

[Characteristics and Source Analysis of VOCs Pollution During Emergency Response in Tianjin].

To elucidate the characteristics of VOCs chemical components during heavy pollution episodes, hourly online VOCs data derived from 11 heavy pollution events in Tianjin from 2019 to 2020 were employed. The positive matrix factorization （PMF） and conditional bivariate probability function （CBPF） were employed to analyze the sources of VOCs during heavy pollution episodes. The results indicated that the average VOCs volume fraction during these episodes was recorded at 35.

Objective: To analyze the factors affecting overall survival (OS) of adult patients with core-binding factor acute myeloid leukemia (CBF-AML) and establish a prediction model.

Methods: A total of 216 newly diagnosed patients with CBF-AML in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from May 2015 to July 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The 216 CBF-AML patients were divided into the training and the validation cohort at 7∶3 ratio.

Synthesis, DNA binding of bis-naphthyl ferrocene derivatives and the application as new electroactive indicators for DNA biosensor.

A series of bis-naphthyl ferrocene derivatives were synthesized and characterized. Based on the results obtained from UV-visible absorption titration and ethidium bromide (EB) displacement experiments, it was observed that the synthesized compounds exhibited a strong binding ability to dsDNA. In comparison to the viscosity curve of EB, the tested compounds demonstrated a bisintercalation binding mode when interacting with CT-DNA.

Substrate-controlled [4+1] and [3+2] annulations of ninhydrin-derived Morita-Baylis-Hillman carbonates to access polysubstituted furans and cyclopentenes.

The effective and mild [4+1] annulation of ninhydrin-derived MBH carbonates with α,β-unsaturated ketones has been developed, providing a wide range of multisubstituted furans in high yields (up to 90%) with excellent β-regioselectivities. In contrast, the polysubstituted cyclopentenes bearing dispiro-bisindanedione motifs were obtained classical [3+2] annulations by employing ninhydrin-derived MBH carbonates with 2-arylidene-1,3-indandiones under the same catalytic conditions. Furthermore, the structures of two kinds of cycloadducts were straightforwardly confirmed through X-ray diffraction analysis.

Epigallocatechin-3-gallate protects sepsis-induced myocardial dysfunction by inhibiting the nuclear factor-κB signaling pathway.

Sepsis-induced myocardial dysfunction (SIMD) has become one of the most lethal complications of sepsis, while the treatment was limited by a shortage of pertinent drugs. Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) is the highest content of active substances in green tea, and its application in cardiovascular diseases has broad prospects. This study was conducted to test the hypothesis that EGCG was able to inhibit lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induced myocardial dysfunction and investigate the underlying molecular mechanisms.

Tumor microenvironment heterogeneity in bladder cancer identifies biologically distinct subtypes predicting prognosis and anti-PD-L1 responses.

Bladder cancer (BCa) is heterogeneous in the tumour microenvironment (TME). However, the role of the TME in BCa in modulating the response to immunotherapy has not been fully explored. We therefore analysed fractions of immune cells using CIBERSORTx and clustered BCa into subtypes.
