Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis(EAE), an inflammatory demyelinating disease of the central nervous system(CNS) provoked by myelin antigens, is widely used as a model for multiple sclerosis. Recent studies have shown that apoptosis may contribute to the death of oligodendrocytes and/or neurons, a pathological event leading to neurological deficits. On the other hand, the apoptotic elimination of inflammatory cells such as T cells and macrophages from the CNS is generally believed to contribute to the spontaneous recovery of EAE. Thus, apoptosis is involved in the disease-regulating as well as the disease-promoting processes of EAE.

Avian coccidiosis, caused by the protozoan Eimeria, leads to significant economic losses for the poultry industry. In this study, bacteriophages that specifically bind to the calcium-binding protein (EtCab) of Eimeria tenella were selected using a biopanning process with a pIII phage display library. The recombinant EtCab protein served as the ligand in this selection process.

Background: Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (TREM2), a surface receptor predominantly expressed on myeloid cells, is a major hub gene in pathology-induced immune signaling. However, its function in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains controversial. This study aimed to evaluate the role of TREM2 in the tumor microenvironment in the context of HCC progression.

Background: Adverse life experiences have been associated with increased susceptibilities to psychopathology in later life. However, their impact on psychological responses following physical trauma remains largely unexplored.
Methods: Based on the China Severe Trauma Cohort, we conducted a cohort study of 2937 patients who were admitted to the Trauma Medical Center of West China Hospital between June 2020 and August 2023.

This study explores the use of conductive material in scaling up anaerobic digestion for enhanced biogas production. Focusing on Direct Interspecies Electron Transfer (DIET), the research employs a syntrophic DIET-able consortium formed by Shewanella oneidensis and Methanosarcina barkerii in 3.8-L experiments utilizing reticulated vitreous carbon (RVC) as conductive material.
