Identification of as a Novel Pyroptosis-Related Prognostic Biomarker of Atopic Dermatitis.

The aim of this study was to characterize key biomarkers associated with pyroptosis in atopic dermatitis (AD). To identify the differentially expressed pyroptosis-related genes (DEPRGs), the gene expression profiles GSE16161 and GSE32924 from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database were utilized. Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analyses were conducted to determine the potential biological functions and involved pathways.

FANCI serve as a prognostic biomarker correlated with immune infiltrates in skin cutaneous melanoma.

Background: As a member of tumor, Skin cutaneous melanoma (SKCM) poses a serious threat to people's health because of its strong malignancy. Unfortunately, effective treatment methods for SKCM remain lacking. FANCI plays a vital role in the occurrence and metastasis of various tumor types.

Activatable Fluorescence-Encoded Nanoprobes Enable Simple Multiplexed RNA Imaging in Live Cells.

Benefiting from superior programmable performance and flexible design of DNA technologies, a variety of single-molecule RNA fluorescence imaging methodologies have been reported. However, the multiplexing capability is restricted owing to the spectral overlap of fluorophores. To overcome this limitation, some inspiring multiplex imaging strategies have been developed, but in practice, it remains challenging to achieve convenient and rapid imaging in live cells due to complex designs and additional pretreatments to increase cell permeability.

Effectiveness of traditional Chinese medicine preparations for facial seborrheic dermatitis: case reports.

Facial seborrheic dermatitis is a chronic skin condition that presents as erythematous scaly dermatitis and has a detrimental effect on the patient's quality of life. The purpose of this article is to present successful treatment of two male patients with face seborrheic dermatitis, one aged 50 and the other aged 56, who developed facial seborrheic dermatitis following facial erythema eruptions. We diagnosed it as face seborrheic dermatitis based on the patients' initial appearances and the location of the erythema during the episode.

Phellopterin cream exerts an anti-inflammatory effect that facilitates diabetes-associated cutaneous wound healing via SIRT1.

Background: Diabetic ulcers, which are characterized by chronic nonhealing wounds with a long-lasting inflammatory state, are a typical symptom in individuals with diabetes, and there is still no effective treatment for these lesions. Angelica dahurica plays a critical role in inflammatory diseases. Among numerous monomeric compounds, phellopterin has been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties.

Residual Stress Redistribution Analysis in the Repair Welding of AA6082-T6 Aluminum Alloy Joints: Experiment and Simulation.

Residual stress has a three-dimensional scale effect (length, depth, and width) in the process of repair welding, which has a detrimental impact on the service of the aluminum alloy welded structures in high-speed trains. This paper aims to systematically analyze the effects of the repair welding dimension on the residual stress redistribution and obtain the optimal repair welding principles. A combination of blind-hole drilling method and stress linearization in BS7910 was adopted to investigate residual stress redistribution under various repair welding dimensions.

A fluorescent, chirality-responsive, and water-soluble cage as a multifunctional molecular container for drug delivery.

In recent years, the rational design and construction of drug delivery systems (DDSs) a supramolecular approach for improving chemical therapeutics have gained significant attention. Here, we report a host-guest DDS formed from a fluorescent, chirality-responsive, and water-soluble tetraphenylethene-based octacationic cage as a fluorescent/chiral probe, solubilizer, and molecular cargo, which can recognize chiral nucleoside drugs, enhance the solubility of insoluble drugs, and protect drugs from the outside environment by forming host-guest complexes in aqueous solution. Given the fluorescence properties and dynamically rotational conformation of tetraphenylethene (TPE) units, this fluorescent and chirality-responsive cage exhibits different responses including turn-on/turn-off fluorescence and negative/positive circular dichroism (CD) when binding with different chiral nucleoside drugs in water, resulting in multiple-responsive photophysical behaviors for these chiral drugs.

A Novel Cell-Assisted Enhanced Chemiluminescence Strategy for Rapid and Label-Free Detection of Tumor Cells in Whole Blood.

In this study, an interesting phenomenon was found where cells (including tumor and normal cells) managed to significantly enhance chemiluminescence (CL) signals. The possible reaction mechanism may be that cells can be severely damaged by CL substrates, and the released contents, possibly proteins (such as cytochrome ), can remarkably magnify CL owing to the increased production of singlet oxygen. More importantly, based on the above phenomena, a novel cell-assisted enhanced CL strategy was proposed for the rapid and label-free detection of tumor cells.

Plasma miR-126 expression correlates with risk and severity of psoriasis and its high level at baseline predicts worse response to Tripterygium wilfordii Hook F in combination with acitretin.

Background: Treatment of psoriasis is always difficult, which requires intensive scientific research.

Objective: Tripterygium wilfordii Hook F (TwHF) with acitretin(TwHF + acitretin) is normally used in treating psoriasis. This study aimed to investigate the correlation of plasma miR-126 expression with risk and severity of psoriasis, and its predictive value of response to TwHF + acitretin treatment in psoriasis.

Depression Symptoms Predict Worse Clinical Response to Etanercept Treatment in Psoriasis Patients.

Background/aims: This study aimed to investigate the predicting values of depression and anxiety symptoms for clinical response to etanercept treatment in psoriasis patients.

Methods: A total of 85 psoriasis patients who received 6 months of etanercept treatment were consecutively enrolled in this prospective cohort study. The Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) score was evaluated at month 0 (M0), M1, M3, and M6, and the corresponding PASI 75/90 response at each visit was assessed.
