Evidence of the "hit and run" characteristics of Cerebroprotein Hydrolysate-I in the treatment of neonatal HIE based on pharmacokinetic and pharmacological studies.

Hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) is the leading cause of neonatal mortality and disability, but its treatment options are very limited and there is an urgent need to further improve treatment outcomes. The present study aims to reveal the therapeutic effects, action pattern, and potential mechanisms of Cerebroprotein hydrolysate-I (CH-I), a mixture of hydrolyzed peptides and amino acids, for the management of HIE. To simulate the complex pathogenesis of HIE more accurately, we innovatively constructed a "triple hit" neonatal HIE rat model.

Research on Simultaneous localization and mapping Algorithm based on Lidar and IMU.

In recent years, the research of autonomous driving and mobile robot technology is a hot research direction. The ability of simultaneous positioning and mapping is an important prerequisite for unmanned systems. Lidar is widely used as the main sensor in SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) technology because of its high precision and all-weather operation.

Identification of essential genes and immune cell infiltration in rheumatoid arthritis by bioinformatics analysis.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a common autoimmune disease that can lead to severe joint damage and disability. And early diagnosis and treatment of RA can avert or substantially slow the progression of joint damage in up to 90% of patients, thereby preventing irreversible disability. Previous research indicated that 50% of the risk for the development of RA is attributable to genetic factors, but the pathogenesis is not well understood.

NK cells adjuvant therapy shows survival benefits in a gastric mixed signet ring cell carcinoma patient: A case report.

Rationale: Advanced signet ring cell (SRC) carcinoma has a worse prognosis. Therefore, early diagnosis and prevention is particularly important; SRC tumors have lower R0 resection rate and are thought to be less chemosensitive than non-SRCC. Consequently, a novel postoperative adjuvant treatment is urgently needed to improve clinical outcomes.

Discovery of hPRDX5-based peptide inhibitors blocking PD-1/PD-L1 interaction through in silico proteolysis and rational design.

Purpose: The human peroxiredoxin-5 (hPRDX5) is a member of the family of antioxidant enzymes, which could resist immunosuppression by promoting immune organs development, lymphocyte proliferation and up-regulation of the levels of serum cytokines. However, being a recombinant protein, the hPRDX5 exhibits some problems including the high production cost and bad tissue penetration. Compared to macromolecular therapeutic agents, synthetic peptides have several advantages as drug candidates, such as lower manufacturing costs, reduced immunogenicity, and better organ or tumor penetration.

Discovery of Zanubrutinib (BGB-3111), a Novel, Potent, and Selective Covalent Inhibitor of Bruton's Tyrosine Kinase.

Aberrant activation of Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) plays an important role in pathogenesis of B-cell lymphomas, suggesting that inhibition of BTK is useful in the treatment of hematological malignancies. The discovery of a more selective on-target covalent BTK inhibitor is of high value. Herein, we disclose the discovery and preclinical characterization of a potent, selective, and irreversible BTK inhibitor as our clinical candidate by using in vitro potency, selectivity, pharmacokinetics (PK), and in vivo pharmacodynamic for prioritizing compounds.

Azacoccones A-E, five new aza-epicoccone derivatives from Aspergillus flavipes.

Azacoccones A-E (1-5), five new aza-epicoccone derivatives, were isolated from the culture of Aspergillus flavipes. Their structures were determined by extensive NMR spectroscopic analyses and the absolute configuration of 5 was determined by electronic circular dichroism (ECD) calculation. Compounds 1-5 are proposed to be generated via a Pictet-Spengler reaction-based biosynthetic route starting from the precursor flavipin.

Diversity of culturable root-associated/endophytic bacteria and their chitinolytic and aflatoxin inhibition activity of peanut plant in China.

A total of 72 isolates of root-associated/endophytic (RAE) bacteria were isolated from peanut plants grown in the main producing areas of 6 provinces in China. The 16S rRNA gene sequences of these isolates were determined and phylogenetic analyses revealed that 72 isolates belonged to the classes Bacilli (49 isolates) and Gammaproteobacteria (23 isolates). The majority of RAE bacteria in Bacilli belonged to 2 genera, Bacillus and Lysinibacillus (48 and 1) while those in Gammaproteobacteria belonged to the genera Enterobacter, Serratia, Stenotrophomonas, and Pseudomonas (7, 11, 3 and 2 isolates, respectively).
