Identification of key neutrophil extracellular trap genes in Alzheimer's disease.

Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder that is associated with neuroinflammation. Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are web-like structures that cause inflammation, but its involvement in AD pathogenesis is unclear.

Objective: This study aimed to identify key NETs related genes associated with AD.

Effect of Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. lactis on vaginal radiotherapy for gynecological cancer.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. lactis (L.del) on vaginal microbiota (VM) dysbiosis and vaginal radiation injury in gynecologic cancer patients.

Effects of different doses of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids on gut microbiota and immunity.

Background: Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) play beneficial roles in metabolism and health. Little is known about the effects of different doses of omega-3 PUFAs on gut microbiota.

Objective: In this study, we focus on the effects of different doses of omega-3 PUFAs on gut microbiota and immunity.

Soil concentration profiles and diffusion and emission of nitrous oxide influenced by the application of biochar in a rice-wheat annual rotation system.

Field experiments were carried out to determine biochar effects on nitrous oxide (N2O) concentration profiles, diffusion, and emissions in paddy soil under rice-wheat annual rotation in southeastern China. An in situ soil gas device was adapted to measure N2O concentrations at depths of 7, 15, 30, and 50 cm. Five treatments were installed as N0B0, N0B1, N1B0, N1B1, and N1B2 (B0, B1, and B2 designated as biochar at 0, 20, and 40 t ha(-1), respectively, while N0 and N1 as nitrogen at 0 and 250 kg N ha(-1) crop(-1), respectively).
