In the present study, DNA typing for HLA-DRB1, DQB1 and DPB1 was performed using polymerase chain reaction-sequencing based typing (PCR-SBT) method in 144 random selected Jing ethnic individuals inhabiting in South China. Allele frequencies and two-locus haplotypes (DRB1-DQB1) were statistically analyzed and 20 DPB1 alleles, 27 DRB1 and 20 DQB1 were detected. The most frequent DPB1 allele was DPB1*0501 with the percentage of 36.9% followed by DPB1*1301 (15.7%), DPB1*0401 (11.0%) and DPB1*020102 (9.8%). Among the 27 detected DRB1 alleles, DRB1*120201 (13.8%) was most commonly observed followed by DRB1*150201, *030101 and *090102 alleles with the frequencies of 9.4%, 9.1% and 8.3%, respectively. Among the 20 detected DQB1 alleles the most predominant one was DQB1*030101/0309 (19.9%). DQB1*050201 (19.1%), DQB1*0201/0202 (16.1%) and DQB1*050101 (12.3%) were also frequently observed in Jing population. Statistical analysis of two-locus haplotypes showed that DRB1*120201-DQB1*030101/DRB1*120201-DQB1*0309 (HF = 9.4%, D = 6.65x10(-2)) was most predominant followed by DRB1*030101-DQB1*0201/DRB1*030101-DQB1*0202 (HF = 8.1%, D = 6.66 x 10(-2)). The comparison of HLA class II allele and haplotype frequencies in Jing with those in other populations all over the world and a dendrogram based on the DRB1, DQB1 and DPB1 genes suggested that Jing ethnic population has an origin of Southeast Asia and is belonged to the southern group of Chinese populations.

Purpose: Obesity is closely associated with a lower risk of inguinal hernia, but the association between different obesity metrics and the risk of inguinal hernia is still unclear.
Methods: In our study, we categorized obesity measurement indicators into three groups based on the difficulty of measurement: (1) indicators easily available, such as body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), hip circumference (HC), and waist-to-hip ratio (WHR); (2) indicators accessible with moderate difficulty, such as body fat percentage and body fat mass; (3) indicators difficultly accessible, such as the volume of visceral adipose tissue (VAT) and subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT). Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis was used to investigate the causal relationship between various adiposity measures and the risk of inguinal hernia in both European ancestry and East Asians.

Fibroblast activation protein (FAP) is highly expressed in solid tumors and may be a potential diagnostic and therapeutic target in solid cancers. Linagliptin inhibits FAP; however, the interaction mechanism between linagliptin and FAP remains unclear. In this study, the binding free energy for linagliptin with human FAP was estimated at -13.

Luohe City is an important node city in the Central Plains Urban Agglomeration in China, where the atmospheric ozone （O） pollution situation has been serious in recent years. In order to provide a scientific basis for O pollution control, the online filed observation of O precursor volatile organic compounds （VOCs） was carried out in Luohe City in July 2022 to understand their variation characteristics and sources. The mean ratio of （TVOCs） during the observation period was （16.

Exploring lanthanide light upconversion (UC) has emerged as a promising strategy to enhance the near-infrared (NIR) responsive region of silicon solar cells (SSCs). However, its practical application under normal sunlight conditions has been hindered by the narrow NIR excitation bandwidth and the low UC efficiency of conventional materials. Here, we report the design of an efficient multiband UC system based on Ln/Yb-doped core-shell upconversion nanoparticles (Ln/Yb-UCNPs, Ln= Ho, Er, Tm).
