DNA-based nanomaterials have attracted increasing attention over the past decades due to their incomparable programmability and functionality. In particular, dendritic DNA nanostructures are ideal for constructing drug carriers due to their highly branched structure. In this study, an intelligent drug delivery system was constructed based on DNA dendrimers, in which the DNA duplexes were utilized for simultaneously loading both hydrophilic and hydrophobic small molecule drugs.

Fifth-generation (5G) communication technologies, such as millimeter wave communication, massive multiple-input-multiple-output and non-orthogonal-multiple-access (NOMA) are playing a pivotal role in promoting the modern applications of the Internet-of-Things. Using non-orthogonal resource allocation, NOMA can increase spectrum efficiency and achieve wide connectivity with low transmission delay and signaling cost. Despite the high potential of NOMA in 5G communications, NOMA is susceptible to a pilot contamination attack (PCA), in which an attacker resents the same pilot signals as authorized users.

During its catalytic cycle, the homodimeric ATPase topoisomerase II alpha (TOP2A) cleaves double stranded DNA and remains covalently bound to 5' ends via tyrosine phosphodiester bonds. After passing a second, intact duplex through, TOP2A rejoins the break and releases from the DNA. Thereby, TOP2A can relieve strain accumulated during transcription, replication and chromatin remodeling and disentangle sister chromatids for mitosis.

The present study aims to examine the effect of 4 h of continuous sitting on cerebral endothelial function, which is a crucial component of cerebral blood flow regulation. We hypothesized that 4 h of sitting may impair cerebral endothelial function similarly to how it affects lower limb vasculature. Thirteen young, healthy participants were instructed to remain seated for 4 h without moving their lower limbs.

Fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) is a non-atherosclerotic, non-inflammatory vascular disease of medium-sized arteries that causes abnormal cellular growth in arterial walls and most commonly affects young to middle-aged women (20-50 years of age). While FMD often involves the renal arteries, it can affect any arterial bed. FMD has a characteristic angiographic appearance of a "string of beads.
