Article Synopsis
  • The study sequenced and analyzed the chloroplast genome of Asarum sieboldii f. seoulense, comparing it with other medicinal plants in the Aristolochiaceae family to understand its unique characteristics and genetic differences.
  • The chloroplast genome of A. sieboldii f. seoulense is 167,293 bp long and contains 133 genes, including 89 protein-coding genes, along with various repeats and simple sequence repeats (SSRs).
  • The phylogenetic analysis showed that A. sieboldii f. seoulense is closely related to A. heterotropoides, contributing valuable insights for the classification and identification of medicinal plants within the Aristolochiaceae family.

Background: The mechanism of body growth in mammals is poorly understood. Here, we investigated the regulatory networks involved in body growth through transcriptomic analysis of pituitary and epiphyseal tissues of smaller sized Debao ponies and Mongolian horses at the juvenile and adult stages.

Results: We found that growth hormone receptor (GHR) was expressed at low levels in long bones, although growth hormone (GH) was highly expressed in Debao ponies compared with Mongolian horses.

This study was designed to establish a modified prediction score system to improve the safety and success rate of vaginal birth after cesarean delivery (VBAC). We recruited 406 patients (between January 2012 and December 2016) and generated a modified score system in predicting the success rate of VBAC. All patients were required to sign informed consent forms.

Article Synopsis
  • Fructus Arctii is a traditional Chinese medicine that can be easily counterfeited by other plant species, making accurate identification crucial.
  • The paper details a high-throughput sequencing method using ITS2 sequences to differentiate Fructus Arctii from five specific counterfeit species in mixed samples.
  • Results showed the method successfully identified and quantified the presence of Fructus Arctii and its spurious species, highlighting its potential for quality control in traditional Chinese medicine.

Background: The goal was to study whether higher physical activity can increase the success rate of Vaginal Birth after Cesarean Delivery (VBAC).

Methods: We enrolled 823 patients with previous cesarean section delivery history (between January 2015 and December 2017) and measured their physical activity during pregnancy. A final number of 519 patients were included for the trial of labor after cesarean delivery (TOLAC).

Genetic transformation is a powerful means for the improvement of crop plants, but requires labor- and resource-intensive methods. An efficient method for identifying single-copy transgene insertion events from a population of independent transgenic lines is desirable. Currently, transgene copy number is estimated by either Southern blot hybridization analyses or quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) experiments.

Objective: To investigate the association of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in p21 and p27 genes with the risk of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC).

Methods: Genotypes were analyzed by polymerase chain reaction-restrictive fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method in 234 patients with EOC and 284 control women in China.

Results: (1) The frequencies of the p21 in healthy controls were 34.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study addresses the lack of effective endosperm-specific promoters needed to express recombinant proteins in cereal crops, particularly focusing on different seed storage glutelin genes from rice.
  • - Six rice glutelin gene promoters (GluA-1, GluA-2, GluA-3, GluB-3, GluB-5, and GluC) were analyzed for their gene expression patterns using beta-glucuronidase (GUS) as a reporter, revealing distinct expression areas within the endosperm.
  • - Among the promoters, GluC exhibited the highest activity during seed maturation and lacked certain motifs associated with endosperm specificity, indicating that additional regulatory mechanisms may play a role

The latent membrane protein 2 (LMP2) is a kind of protein expressed by EBV-infected cells. This study was aimed to investigate whether the stimulation of peripheral blood mononuclear cells with peptides induces EBV-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL). The peptides were mixture of LMP2 protein and available for people with different HLA types.
