Application of Virtual Reality Technology in Post-Stroke Depression.

Post-stroke depression (PSD) is one of the most common complications of emotional disorders after stroke, and the recovery effect of clinical intervention using conventional means is limited. As an emerging technology, virtual reality technology provides a new idea for the clinical rehabilitation of patients with post-stroke depression. Through literature retrieval and review of domestic and foreign studies, this paper summarizes the development of virtual reality technology in psychotherapy.

A signal-off Cas14a1-based platform for highly specific detection of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.

Antibiotic usage has become very widespread in aquaculture, and the abuse or overuse of antibiotics has led to the evolution of antibiotic-resistance bacteria, which has adverse effects on aquatic products and ecosystems. Moreover, this evolution can potentially cause harm to human health. Thus, there is an urgent need for diagnostic tools for antibiotic-resistant microorganisms.

Aptamer-based Cas14a1 biosensor for amplification-free live pathogenic detection.

CRISPR-Cas systems have been employed to detect a large variety of pathogenic microorganisms by simply changing the guide RNA sequence. However, these platforms usually rely on nucleic acid extraction and amplification to achieve good sensitivity. Herein, we developed a new platform for the highly specific and sensitive detection of live staphylococcus aureus (S.

trans Single-Stranded DNA Cleavage via CRISPR/Cas14a1 Activated by Target RNA without Destruction.

As a CRISPR-Cas system (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats and CRISPR associated proteins), Cas14a1 can cis/trans cleave single-stranded DNA (ssDNA). Here, we describe an unreported capacity of Cas14a1: RNA can trigger the trans ssDNA cleavage. This Cas14a1-based RNA-activated detection platform (Amplification, Transcription, Cas14a1-based RNA-activated trans ssDNA cleavage, ATCas-RNA) has an outstanding specificity for the detection of target RNAs with point mutation resolution, which is better than that of the Cas14a1-based ssDNA-activation.

Cas14a1-mediated nucleic acid detectifon platform for pathogens.

Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR)-associated nuclease (Cas) based biosensing system provides a novel genomic diagnostic tool for pathogenic detection. However, most of the discovered Cas effectors have poor single strand DNA (ssDNA) target recognition capability with the constraint of protospacer adjacent motif (PAM) sites, which are not suitable for universal pathogenic diagnosis. Herein, we developed a highly sensitive and specific fluorescence tool for bacterial detection by utilizing the unique collateral cleavage activity of a Cas14a1-mediated nucleic acid detection platform (CMP).
