Objective: Periodontitis can lead to the destruction of periodontal tissues and potentially tooth loss. Numerous periodontal tissue-derived cells display osteogenic differentiation potential. The presence of differentially expressed long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in these cells indicate their ability to regulate the process of osteogenic differentiation.

This inflammation has a negative impact on the osteogenic differentiation capacity of periodontal tissue-derived cells. Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are a class of RNA molecules that do not encode proteins but can regulate various physiological processes.

Zn pollution has gradually become apparent, but there are few reports about its pollution remediation. Here, the Zn remediation potential of , an anamorph of the entomopathogenic fungus , was explored.

They are currently the container of choice for high-throughput and small-scale microbial culture, but require optimization for specific work. In this research, a novel type of microtiter plate was developed using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) technology.

In this study, seawater and fermentation wastewater were introduced into the fermentation production of DHA, which could solve the problem of fermentation industry competing with humans for freshwater. In addition, a green fermentation strategy with pH control using waste ammonia, NaOH and citric acid as well as FW recycling was proposed.

In the era of sustainable development, the use of cell factories to produce various compounds by fermentation has attracted extensive attention; however, industrial fermentation requires not only efficient production strains, but also suitable extracellular conditions and medium components, as well as scaling-up. In this regard, the use of biological models has received much attention, and this review will provide guidance for the rapid selection of biological models. This paper first introduces two mechanistic modeling methods, kinetic modeling and constraint-based modeling (CBM), and generalizes their applications in practice.

It can be obtained from the submerged fermentation by the anamorph (Paraisaria dubia) of Ophiocordyceps gracilis. However, it was found that the mycelial pellets of Paraisaria dubia were dense and increased in volume in the process of fermentation, and the center of the pellets was autolysis due to the lack of nutrient delivery, which extremely reduced the yield of polysaccharides.
