In work the molecular structure and function of GABA(A)-receptor, dependence of allosteric regulation features from subunit composition of receptors are described. Processes of GABAA-receptor plasticity at kindling are described. The process of GABA(A)-receptor allosteric plasticity by pentylenetetrazole (PTZ) kindling induced automodification of receptor activity and consolidated (keeps by means of updating of an expression of genes) its activity. In some days activity of a receptor is restored to a test objective level. In 6 months PTZ subconvulsive dose administration of kindling rats reproduced the severity of seizures and restored of GABA(A)-receptor activity to the level found 6 months before, at the time of termination of kindling, independent of receptor presence activity and age changes. GABA(A)-receptor activity is consolidated by modification of receptor molecule, it is probably by receptor subunit compositions. The study of learning, memory and PTZ amnesia processes have allowed to make a conclusion that similar mechanisms of GABA(A)-receptor plasticity underlie of learning and memory processes. On the basis of the described results the scheme of intraneuronal modulators integration or integration of transduction signals are described.

Cardiovascular calcification is a pathological process commonly observed in the elderly. Based on the location of the calcification, cardiovascular calcification can be classified into two main types: vascular calcification and valvular calcification. Collagen plays a critical role in the development of cardiovascular calcification lesions.

Saline-alkaline stress has caused severe ecological and environmental problems. Castor bean is a potential alkali-tolerant plant, however, its reactive oxygen species (ROS) regulatory mechanisms under alkaline stress remain unclear. This study investigated the physiological, transcriptomic, and metabolomic characteristics of two varieties (ZB8, alkaline-sensitive; JX22, alkaline-resistant) under alkaline stress.

Gene therapy with Adeno-Associated Virus (AAV) vectors requires knowledge of their tropism within the body. Here we analyze the tropism of ten naturally occurring AAV serotypes (AAV3B, AAV4, AAV5, AAV6, AAV7, AAV8, AAV9, AAVrh8, AAVrh10 and AAVrh74) following systemic delivery into male and female mice. A transgene expressing ZsGreen and Cre recombinase was used to identify transduction in a cell-dependent manner based on fluorescence.

Background: Ovarian cancers (OC) and cervical cancers (CC) have poor survival rates. Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) play a pivotal role in prognosis, but shared immune mechanisms remain elusive.
Methods: We integrated single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) and spatial transcriptomics (ST) to explore immune regulation in OC and CC, focusing on the PI3K/AKT pathway and FLT3 as key modulators.

Background: Rex rabbit is famous for its silky and soft fur coat, a characteristic predominantly attributed to its hair follicles. Numerous studies have confirmed the crucial roles of mRNAs and non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) in regulating key cellular processes such as cell proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis and immunity. However, their involvement in the regulation of the hair cycle in Rex rabbits remains unknown.
