Objective: To explore the differentially expressed proteins of contrast-induced nephropathy through a comparison of urinary proteome so as to further elucidate the pathogenesis and discover the disease biomarker.
Methods: The urine samples of 12 patients were collected before and after coronary angiography. Two dimensional electrophoresis was performed after the urine samples were labeled by different dyes. The differences of urine proteome were analyzed by Decyder software and the differentially expressed spots identified by mass spectrometry.
Results: A total of 56 differentially expressed spots were detected. Among them, 39 spots were up-regulated and 17 spots down-regulated. And mannose binding lectin and mannose binding lectin associated serine protease 2, key proteins in complement body activation, were both significantly up-regulated.
Conclusion: Urine proteomic study methods are constructed based on 2D-DIGE and mass spectrometry. The lectin pathway of complement body may be associated with contrast-induced acute kidney injury.

Objective: Ca overload of muscle fibers is one of the factors that secondarily aggravate the development of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of the Ca channel modulator 2-aminoethoxydiphenyl borate (APB) on skeletal muscle pathology in dystrophin-deficient mice.
Methods: Mice were randomly divided into six groups: wild type (WT), WT+3 mg/kg APB, WT+10 mg/kg APB, , +3 mg/kg APB, +10 mg/kg APB.

Objective: The current study aimed to develop an experimental approach for the direct co-culture of three-dimensional breast cancer cells using single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq).
Methods: The following four cell culture groups were established in the Matrigel matrix: the untreated Michigan Cancer Foundation (MCF)-7 cell culture group, the MCF-7 cell culture plus cisplatin group, the untreated co-culture group, and the cell co-culture plus cisplatin group. For cell co-culture, MCF-7 cells, human mammary fibroblasts, and human umbilical vein endothelial cells were mixed at a ratio of 1:1:1.

Background: Ischemic stroke (IS) is the leading cause of mortality worldwide. Herein, we aimed to identify novel biomarkers and explore the role of C-type lectin domain family 7 member A () in IS.
Methods: Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were screened using the GSE106680, GSE97537, and GSE61616 datasets, and hub genes were identified through construction of protein-protein interaction networks.

Purpose: Septic cardiomyopathy (SCM) is a significant global public health concern characterized by substantial morbidity and mortality, which has not been improved for decades due to lack of early diagnosis and effective therapies. This study aimed to identify hub biomarkers in SCM and explore their potential mechanisms.
Methods: We utilized the GSE53007 and GSE207363 datasets for transcriptome analysis of normal and SCM mice.

Aim: To investigate the regulatory mechanism of CXCL16 molecule-related ( extract-induced antigen presentation in a mouse asthma model based on the long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) and mRNA expression profile.
Methods: knockout mice and wild-type mice were administered with . extract by intratracheal instillations to induce asthma airway inflammation.
