RBM25 induces trophoblast epithelial-mesenchymal transition and preeclampsia disorder by enhancing the positive feedback loop between Grhl2 and RBM25.

Defects in migration and invasion caused by dysregulation of trophoblast epithelial-mesenchymal transformation (EMT) are one of the key factors in the pathogenesis of preeclampsia (PE). RNA-binding motif protein 25 (RBM25) is an RNA-binding protein involved in a variety of cellular processes, including cell proliferation, apoptosis, cell migration and invasion, and EMT. However, the expression and function of RBM25 in placental of PE remain unclear.

Methods: The 3425 GEJ patients diagnosed and underwent surgical resection without distant metastasis in the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database from 2010 to 2015 were enrolled,and they were randomly divided into training and validation cohorts with 7:3 ratio.

Magnetic dynamics of an open-ring tridysprosium complex employing mixed ligands.

By employing mixed ligands, a new trinuclear dysprosium complex [Dy3(dbm)3(L)4](ClO4)2·CH2Cl2·2MeOH (1, Hdbm = dibenzoylmethane; HL = 2-methoxy-6-((quinolin-8-ylimino)methyl)phenol) was synthesized by a one-pot reaction. According to structural characterization, all the 8-coordinated Dy(iii) sites are well arranged with slightly distorted square antiprism (D4d) geometries. Magnetic measurements reveal that 1 exhibits typical single-molecule magnetic behavior at zero magnetic field and shows rarely open hysteresis loops up to 3 K among open-ring {Dy3} SMMs, where the relaxation time remains very stable under the protection from the Dy-Dy magnetic coupling in the open-ring arrangement of Ising spins.

Construction of a Two-Dimensional Heterojunction by Stacking Bismuth Trioxide Nanoplates with Reduced Graphene Oxide for Enhanced Water Oxidation Performance.

In this study, a two-dimensional heterojunction consisting of bismuth trioxide nanoplates and layered reduced graphene oxide was synthesized using a facile growth route. A series of characterization tests indicated that the reduction of graphene oxide played a key role as an electron collector for enhancing photoinduced charge carrier separation efficiency. Thus, the as-prepared reduced graphene oxide/bismuth trioxide composite exhibited enhanced photocatalytic water oxidation, which was higher than that of pristine bismuth trioxide under simulated solar light irradiation.

RNA-sequencing of a citrus bud-feeder, Podagricomela weisei (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae), reveals xenobiotic metabolism/core RNAi machinery-associated genes and conserved miRNAs.

The citrus leaf-mining beetle, Podagricomela weisei Heikertinger, is an important citrus pest that ingests the mesophyll and new shoots. The mechanism underlying the xenobiotic metabolism of P. weisei is not well understood, in part because of a lack of available genomic and transcriptomic data, which has hampered the development of novel pest management approaches [e.

Vitexin reduces epilepsy after hypoxic ischemia in the neonatal brain via inhibition of NKCC1.

Background: Neonatal hypoxic-ischemic brain damage, characterized by tissue loss and neurologic dysfunction, is a leading cause of mortality and a devastating disease of the central nervous system. We have previously shown that vitexin has been attributed various medicinal properties and has been demonstrated to have neuroprotective roles in neonatal brain injury models. In the present study, we continued to reinforce and validate the basic understanding of vitexin (45 mg/kg) as a potential treatment for epilepsy and explored its possible underlying mechanisms.

Guest-Switchable Multi-Step Spin Transitions in an Amine-Functionalized Metal-Organic Framework.

Materials with hysteretic multi-step spin-crossover (SCO) have potential application in high-order data storage. Here, an unprecedented hysteretic four-step SCO behavior with the sequence of LS↔HS LS ↔HS LS ↔ HS LS ↔HS is found in a three-dimensional (3D) Hofmann-type metal-organic framework (MOF), which is evidenced by magnetic, differential scanning calorimetry, and crystal data. Further experiments involving guest exchange leads to the first reversible modulation of four-, two-, and one-stepped SCO behaviors, which provides a new strategy for developing multi-step SCO materials.

Metal-Ion Induced In Situ Ligand Oxidation for Self-Assembled Clusters: from Bis(5-(2-pyridine-2-yl)-1,2,4-triazole-3-yl)methane to Alcohol or Ketone.

Hydrothermal reactions of metal nitrates and ligand bis(5-(pyridine-2-yl)-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)methane (H L ) gave three cluster compounds, {Cr }, {Zn } and {Fe }. Notably, methylene group of H L was in situ oxidized either to hydroxymethylated (L -O) in the metallo-ring {Zn } or to a rigid carbonylated (L =O) in the screw-type {Fe }. In light of comparative experimental results, NO was deduced to be of a catalytic role in the ligand oxidation.

Modulation of neuroinflammation: Role and therapeutic potential of TRPV1 in the neuro-immune axis.

Transient receptor potential vanilloid type 1 channel (TRPV1), as a ligand-gated non-selective cation channel, has recently been demonstrated to have wide expression in the neuro-immune axis, where its multiple functions occur through regulation of both neuronal and non-neuronal activities. Growing evidence has suggested that TRPV1 is functionally expressed in glial cells, especially in the microglia and astrocytes. Glial cells perform immunological functions in response to pathophysiological challenges through pro-inflammatory or anti-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines in which TRPV1 is involved.
