Immobilization of horseradish peroxidase on UiO-66-NH for colorimetric and fluorometric sensing of nitrite.

Immobilized enzymes play a crucial role in analytical sensing due to their exceptional stability and considerable commercial importance. In this study, a stable Zr-based metal-organic framework (UiO-66-NH) was prepared as an immobilization platform for horseradish peroxidase (HRP) through covalent binding. HRP@UiO-66-NH retained 75% of its activity after 10 cycles.

Functional analysis of the PcCDPK5 gene in response to allelopathic substances on p-hydroxybenzoic acid (p-HBA) stress in patchouli.

Calcium-dependent protein kinase (CDPK) is an important mediator for Ca signal recognition and transduction, playing a crucial role in plant stress response. Previous studies have shown that PcCDPK5 may be involved in the response of patchouli to p-hydroxybenzoic acid (p-HBA) stress. In this study, we further found that the subcellular localization of PcCDPK5 protein is in the cytoplasm, and its gene expression is closely related to continuous cropping (CC) and p-HBA stress.

Post-craniotomy intracranial pressure monitoring: a novel approach combining optic nerve sheath diameter ultrasonography and cervical-cerebral arterial ultrasound.

Objective: Elevated intracranial pressure (ICP), a common complication in traumatic brain injuries (TBI), can lead to optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) enlargement and flow spectrum changes from the internal carotid artery (ICA) to middle cerebral artery (MCA). This study will investigate the use of Cervical-Cerebral Arterial Ultrasound (CCAU) for non-invasive ICP assessment and evaluating the related indices' clinical utility in TBI patients with decompressive craniotomy (DC).

Methods: ONSD and flow spectrum changes were measured within 24 h after DC in 106 patients via ultrasonic ONSD measurement and CCAU, simultaneously.

Clinical Outcomes of Hepatic Arterial Infusion Chemotherapy Plus Lenvatinib and Tislelizumab for Treating Hepatocellular Carcinoma and Type IV Portal Vein Tumor Thrombus.

Purpose: To assess the activity and toxicity of hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC)+tislelizumab+lenvatinib (HAIC+tisle+len) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with portal vein tumor thrombus (PVTT) type IV (Vp4 hCC) in a real-world context.

Methods: Fifty-five patients, with Vp4 hCC receiving HAIC+tisle+len therapy from April 2021 to December 2022, were analyzed retrospectively. Data on patient characteristics, adverse events (AEs), treatment, and survival were collected.

Musculoskeletal adverse events associated with CDK4/6 inhibitors: a real-world study using FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database.

Objective: Cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK)-4/6 inhibitors have significantly improved outcomes in several cancers but can also induce various organ system toxicities, including musculoskeletal disorders. This study aimed to comprehensively characterize the musculoskeletal adverse events (MSAEs) associated with CDK4/6 inhibitors based on real-world data.

Methods: Reports of MSAEs linked to CDK4/6 inhibitors from the first quarter (Q1) of 2015 and 2023 Q4 were extracted from the FAERS.
