Background: Microsatellites are highly polymorphic repeat sequences ubiquitously interspersed throughout almost all genomes which are widely used as powerful molecular markers in diverse fields. Microsatellite expansions play pivotal roles in gene expression regulation and are implicated in various neurological diseases and cancers. Although much effort has been devoted to developing efficient tools for microsatellite identification, there is still a lack of a powerful tool for large-scale microsatellite analysis.

Intercellular communication is fundamental to multicellular life and a core determinant of outcomes during viral infection, where the common goals of virus and host for persistence and replication are generally at odds. Hosts rely on encoded innate and adaptive immune responses to detect and clear viral pathogens, while viruses can exploit or disrupt these pathways and other intercellular communication processes to enhance their spread and promote pathogenesis. While virus-induced signaling can result in systemic changes to the host, striking alterations are observed within the cellular microenvironment directly surrounding a site of infection, termed the virus microenvironment (VME).

Engineering thermostable fluorescent DNA aptamer for the isothermal amplification of nucleic acids.

Biosens Bioelectron

January 2025

Key Laboratory of Laboratory Medical Diagnostics, Ministry of Education, Department of Laboratory Medicine, Chongqing Medical University, Chongqing, China. Electronic address:

Isothermal amplification-based nucleic acid detection technologies have become rapid and efficient tools for molecular diagnostics. Sequence-specific monitoring methods are crucial for isothermal amplification, as they help identify the occurrence of extended primer dimers, which can lead to false positive results. Fluorescent aptamers are promising tools for real-time monitoring of isothermal amplification but are inherently limited by thermostability.

Endometrial Cancer (EC) is one of the most common gynecological malignancies, ranking first in developed countries and regions. The occurrence and development of EC is closely associated with genetic mutations. mutation, in particular, can lead to the dysfunction of numerous regulatory factors and alteration of the tumor microenvironment (TME).
