Probiotics fermentation enhanced the bioactive properties of water extract and improved regulation ability of gut microbiota.

This study investigated the probiotic potential of fermented beverages derived from (). Three different beverages were prepared by fermenting water extract with A6-3 ( A6-3), A27-1 ( A27-1), or both for 48 h. The results demonstrated that bioactive compounds from promoted the growth of these two probiotics and preserved their viability for at least 28 days at 4 °C.

Dual Delivery of Tetramethylpyrazine and miR-194-5p Using Soft Mesoporous Organosilica Nanoparticles for Acute Lung Injury Therapy.

Background: The respiratory system is intensely damaged by acute lung injury (ALI). The anti-inflammatory effects of tetramethylpyrazine (TMP) against ALI have been confirmed, but it exhibits a short half-life. miR-194-5p could directly target Rac1, but the internalization rate of miRNA cells was low.

Genetic analysis of the P1 region of human enterovirus 71 strains and expression of the 55 F strainVP1 protein.

Enterovirus 71 (EV71) is a member of the Entero-virus genus of the Picornaviridae family and is the major cause of Hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD) in children. Different strains from Gansu were cloned and the P1 protein was sequenced and analysed. Results indicate that there are three kinds of EV71 infections prevalent in Gansu.
