Systematic Pan-Cancer Analysis Identifies CDK1 as an Immunological and Prognostic Biomarker.

Cyclin-dependent kinase 1 (CDK1) plays an important role in cancer development, progression, and the overall process of tumorigenesis. However, no pan-cancer analysis has been reported for CDK1, and the predictive role of CDK1 in immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) therapy response remains unexplored. Thus, in this study, we first investigated the potential oncogenic role of CDK1 in 33 tumors by multidimensional bioinformatics analysis based on The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) datasets.

EphA2 recognizes Dermatophagoidespteronyssinus to mediate airway inflammation in asthma.

Most of the asthma with low Th2 is severe steroid-resistant asthma, the exact pathogenesis of which has not yet been fully elucidated. We found that IL-6 and IL-8 were highly expressed in the sputum supernatant of severe asthma and ephrin type-A receptor 2 (EphA2) was highly expressed on bronchial epithelial cells. So, is there a connection between these two phenomena? To clarify this issue, we stimulated bronchial epithelial cells 16HBE with Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus and its compontents LPS, respectively, and detected the activation of EphA2, activation of downstream pathways and secretion of inflammatory cytokines.

Optimizing the Water Ecological Environment of Mining Cities in the Yangtze River Economic Belt Using the Cloud Model, CV-TOPSIS, and Coupling Coordination Degree.

The Yangtze River Economic Belt (YREB) is the core region for the security of mineral resources in China and is a strategic water source containing rich water resources. Coordinating the security of mineral resources and water resources in the YREB is a key problem. Establishing and optimizing the water ecological environment (WEE) is crucial for addressing this problem in mining cities, which are the main bases for the supply of mineral resources.

The onset, development and pathogenesis of severe neutrophilic asthma.

Bronchial asthma is divided into Th2 high, Th2 low and mixed types. The Th2 high type is dominated by eosinophils while the Th2 low type is divided into neutrophilic and paucigranulocytic types. Eosinophilic asthma has gained increased attention recently, and its pathogenesis and treatment are well understood.

Osthole relieves diabetics cardiac autonomic neuropathy associated with P2X3 receptor in ratstellate ganglia.

Diabetic cardiac autonomic neuropathy (DCAN) is a serious complication of diabetes mellitus, which often leads to cardiac dysfunction and even threatens patients' life. Osthole, a natural coumarin derivative, has anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant and antihypertensive effects. The P2X3 receptor is related to DCAN.

Involvement of P2Y receptor of stellate ganglion in diabetic cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy.

Diabetes as a chronic epidemic disease with obvious symptom of hyperglycemia is seriously affecting human health globally due to the diverse diabetic complications. Diabetic cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy (DCAN) is a common complication of both type 1 and type 2 diabetes and incurs high morbidity and mortality. However, the underlying mechanism for DCAN is unclear.

Effects of Baicalin on Diabetic Cardiac Autonomic Neuropathy Mediated by the P2Y12 Receptor in Rat Stellate Ganglia.

Background/aims: Chronic diabetic hyperglycemia can damage various of organ systems and cause serious complications. Although diabetic cardiac autonomic neuropathy (DCAN) is the primary cause of death in diabetic patients, its pathogenesis remains to be fully elucidated. Baicalin is a flavonoid extracted from Scutellaria baicalensis root and has antibacterial, diuretic, anti-inflammatory, anti- metamorphotic, and antispasmodic effects.
