Single-chain antibody gene therapy strategy based on high-throughput screening triggers sustained antiviral activity in the body.

The occurrence of viral diseases poses a huge threat and impact on human public health safety and the development of the animal and fishery industry. Here, a strain of single-chain antibody fragment, scFv-1, was isolated from the phage antibody display library construct by immunizing New Zealand white rabbits with rhabdovirus. analysis showed that the single-chain antibody could inhibit the infection of the virus in multiple pathways, including adsorption, fusion, and release.

Skin as outermost immune organ of vertebrates that elicits robust early immune responses after immunization with glycoprotein of spring viraemia of carp virus.

As the outermost immune organ in vertebrates, the skin serves as the primary interface with the external environment and plays a crucial role in initiating the early immune response. The skin contains a variety of immune cells that induce mucosal and systemic immune responses, rendering it a prime target for vaccination strategies. Insight into the mechanisms through which vaccination triggers early immune responses is paramount for advancing animal and human health, yet our current understanding remains limited.

Miniaturized, portable gustation interfaces for VR/AR/MR.

Gustation is one of the five innate sensations for humans, distinguishing from vision, auditory, tactile, and olfaction, as which is a close and chemically induced sense. Despite the fact that a handful of gustation display technologies have been developed, the new technologies still pose significant challenges in miniaturization of the overall size for portability, enriching taste options within a limited working area, supporting natural human-device interaction, and achieving precisely controlled taste feedback. To address these issues, here, we report a set of intelligent and portable lollipop-shaped taste interfacing systems covering from 2 to 9 different taste options for establishing an adjustable taste platform in virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and mixed reality (MR) environments.

Impact of extreme rainfall and flood events on harmful cyanobacterial communities and ecological safety in the Baiyangdian Lake Basin, China.

Globally, climate change has intensified extreme rainfall events, leading to substantial hydrological changes in aquatic ecosystems. These changes, in turn, have increased the frequency of harmful algal blooms, particularly those of cyanobacteria. This study examines cyanobacterial community dynamics in the Baiyangdian Lake Basin, China, after heavy rainfall and flooding events.

Increasing phosphorus ratios between overlying and surface water inhibits intracellular antibiotic resistance gene transformation in a large shallow lake.

The rising prevalence of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in the surface waters of lakes poses a significant threat to human health. The overlying water in these lakes serves as a critical hotspot for the accumulation of ARGs in surface water. However, the mobility of extracellular (adsorbed ARGs (a-eARGs) and free ARGs (f-eARGs)), and intracellular ARGs (i-ARGs) from overlying water to surface water remains unknown.

Carbon dots based AuAg@AuNPs with oxidase-like activity for SERS dual-readouts detection of D-penicillamine.

An oxidase (OXD) -like AuAg@AuNPs nanozyme was prepared by Au seeds growth using dopamine carbon dots as reducing and capping agents. The AuAg@AuNPs show excellent OXD-like and surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) activities and can oxidize the non-Raman-active leucomalachite green (LMG) into the Raman-active malachite green (MG). The research displays that D-penicillamine (D-PA) can effectively inhibit the OXD-like activity of Au@AgNPs and enhance the SERS signals as substrate.

[Corrigendum] Hispolon inhibits breast cancer cell migration by reversal of epithelial‑to‑mesenchymal transition via suppressing the ROS/ERK/Slug/E‑cadherin pathway.

Subsequently to the publication of the above paper, an interested reader drew to the authors' attention that, with the cell migration assay data shown in Fig. 7 on p. 901, the "TPA" and "TPA + U0126" panels were strikingly similar, such that data which were intended to show the results from differently performed experiments had apparently been derived from the same original source.

Links Between Cellular Energy Metabolism and Pain Sensation.

One of the functions of organism cells is to maintain energy homeostasis to promote metabolism and adapt to the environment. The 3 major pathways of cellular energy metabolism are glycolysis, the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS). Neurons, astrocytes, and microglia are crucial in allodynia, hyperalgesia, and sensitization in nociceptive pathways.

Comprehensive analysis and identification of subtypes and hub genes of high immune response in lung adenocarcinoma.

Background: The advent of immunotherapy targeting immune checkpoints has conferred significant clinical advantages to patients with lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD); However, only a limited subset of patients exhibit responsiveness to this treatment. Consequently, there is an imperative need to stratify LUAD patients based on their response to immunotherapy and enhance the therapeutic efficacy of these treatments.

Pyrene-Alkyne-Based Conjugated Porous Polymers with Skeleton Distortion-Mediated ⋅O and O Generation for High-Selectivity Organic Photosynthesis.

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a crucial role in determining photocatalytic reaction pathways, intermediate species, and product selectivity. However, research on ROS regulation in polymer photocatalysts is still in its early stages. Herein, we successfully achieved series of modulations to the skeleton of Pyrene-alkyne-based (Tetraethynylpyrene (TEPY)) conjugated porous polymers (CPPs) by altering the linkers (1,4-dibromobenzene (BE), 4,4'-dibromobiphenyl (IP), and 3,3'-dibromobiphenyl (BP)).

The binding of PKCε and MEG2 to STAT3 regulates IL-6-mediated microglial hyperalgesia during inflammatory pain.

Studies have suggested that microglial IL-6 modulates inflammatory pain; however, the exact mechanism of action remains unclear. We therefore hypothesized that PKCε and MEG2 competitively bind to STAT3 and contribute to IL-6-mediated microglial hyperalgesia during inflammatory pain. Freund's complete adjuvant (FCA) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) were used to induce hyperalgesia model mice and microglial inflammation.

Mannose modified targeted immersion vaccine delivery system improves protective immunity against Infectious spleen and kidney necrosis virus in mandarin fish (Siniperca chuatsi).

Vaccination is an effective method to prevent viral diseases. However, the biological barrier prevents the immersion vaccine from achieving the best effect without adding adjuvants and carriers. Researches on the targeted presentation technology of vaccines with nanocarriers are helpful to develop immersion vaccines for fish that can break through biological barriers and play an effective role in fish defense.
