Novel pyrene derivative conjugated with dimethylsilyl moiety was prepared from bromopyrene. The compound was successfully converted to the corresponding phosphoramidite derivative and incorporated into oligoDNA. In uv-melting study, the resulted fluorescent oligoDNA can discriminate one-base mismatched complement only when the mismatched base is positioned around the middle of the duplex-forming region. On the other hand, the oligoDNA gives marked fluorescence upon binding with the full-matched complement. The intensity of the fluorescent signal of the oligoDNA in a duplex changes depending on the position of the mismatched base of the complement.

Simple yet specific miRNA detection remains an enormous challenge due to its low abundance in samples and the high similarity among homologous miRNAs. Here, we propose a novel fluorescent approach for miRNA detection with greatly elevated accuracy by utilizing exonuclease-iii (Exo-iii) assisted twice target recognition. The proposed method involves a "Sensing probe" engineered with two loop sections to facilitate dual target miRNA recognition.

The First Clinical Medical College of Lanzhou University, Department of Radiology, The First Hospital of Lanzhou University, Intelligent Imaging Medical Engineering Research Center of Gansu Province, Accurate Image Collaborative Innovation International Science and Technology Cooperation Base of Gansu Province, Gansu Province Clinical Research Center for Radiology Imaging, Lanzhou, China.

Objectives: Altitude is a known factor in cardiovascular disease, but its impact on hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) patients remains unclear. This study aimed to determine whether living at high altitudes affects the extent of late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) and left ventricular (LV) strain in HCM patients.

Methods: This retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted across four hospitals located at different altitudes in China.

Cellular senescence plays a significant role in tissue aging. Senescent cells, which resist apoptosis while remaining metabolically active, generate endogenous DNA-damaging agents, primarily reactive oxygen species. Efficient DNA repair is therefore crucial in these cells, especially when they undergo senescence escape, resuming DNA replication and cellular proliferation.

Conventional artificial intelligence (AI) systems are facing bottlenecks due to the fundamental mismatches between AI models, which rely on parallel, in-memory, and dynamic computation, and traditional transistors, which have been designed and optimized for sequential logic operations. This calls for the development of novel computing units beyond transistors. Inspired by the high efficiency and adaptability of biological neural networks, computing systems mimicking the capabilities of biological structures are gaining more attention.

Universal shade flowable composites have been introduced to mimic tooth structure with reduced color mismatch and reduced chair time and cost. However, the polymerization shrinkage of resin material may lead to sensitivity and restoration failure. The purpose of this study was to compare the polymerization shrinkage of recently introduced universal shade flowable resin-based composites using both wet and dry density methods.
