Poly(A) sequence of 25 adenylic residues placed immediately before the start codons of the green fluorescent protein (GFP) and firefly luciferase (Luc) mRNAs is shown to provide a high rate of translation of the heterologous messages in eukaryotic cell-free translation systems. Also the poly(A) leader is found to provide the abolition of the inhibition of translation at excess mRNA concentrations. The possibility of the practical use of the constructs with the poly(A) leader for preparative protein production is demonstrated in the wheat germ continuous-exchange cell-free (CECF) translation system.

Background: Neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) formation has been implicated as a pathogenic mechanism in both rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and interstitial lung disease (ILD). However, the role of NETs in RA-associated ILD (RA-ILD) and the mechanisms driving NET formation remain unclear. This study aimed to assess the involvement of NETs in RA-ILD and elucidate the underlying mechanisms.

The discovery of circulating fetal and tumor cell-free DNA (cfDNA) molecules in plasma has opened up tremendous opportunities in noninvasive diagnostics such as the detection of fetal chromosomal aneuploidies and cancers and in posttransplantation monitoring. The advent of high-throughput sequencing technologies makes it possible to scrutinize the characteristics of cfDNA molecules, opening up the fields of cfDNA genetics, epigenetics, transcriptomics, and fragmentomics, providing a plethora of biomarkers. Machine learning (ML) and/or artificial intelligence (AI) technologies that are known for their ability to integrate high-dimensional features have recently been applied to the field of liquid biopsy.

Acellular cellulose-based biomaterials hold promising potential for treating bladder injuries. However, the compromised cellular state surrounding the wound impedes the complete reconstruction of the bladder. This necessitates the development of a bio-instructive cellulose-based biomaterial that actively controls cell behavior to facilitate effective bladder regeneration.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with chronic low-grade inflammation, but the primary factors triggering this inflammation remain unclear. Extracellular or cell-free DNA (exDNA) originates from virtually all tissues, being released during cell death, and stimulates the innate immune system. Our study was designed as an observational, cross-sectional cohort study of children with CKD (both before and after kidney transplantation) and controls to analyze associations between exDNA, markers of inflammation, and cardiovascular health.

To evaluate the value of increasing sequencing depths of non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) for fetal chromosomal aneuploidies based on the semiconductor sequencing platform. This study recruited a cohort of 59,800 singleton pregnancies from Guangdong Women and Children Hospital between January 2015 and December 2020, including 48,018 cases of NIPT and 11,782 cases of expanded NIPT. Cell-free DNA from plasma samples was sequenced at a sequencing depth of 0.
