In compliance with our theory of biologic functions and reactions, pathogenesis of all diseases in formed in the framework of disorder of seven biologic functions: trophology, homeostasis, endoecology, adaptation, locomotion, genus continuation and intelligence. The disorder of biologic function of endoecology ("purity" of intercellular medium in vivo) is the most common basis of pathogenesis of diseases' nosological forms. There are two methods of elimination of disorder of this function. First is the biological reaction of excretion i.e. the removal of minor endogenic phlogogenes (initiators of inflammation) with molecular weightless than 70 amu. The second is the biological function of inflammation i.e. utilization of large endogenic phlogogenes (more than 70 amu) by means of phagocytosis of functional phagocytes. The inherent and acquired immunity are other biological reactions of biological function of endoecology. They overlap with biological reaction of transcytosis and biological reaction of hydrodynamic pressure activating transcytosis. The system of tolite homothetic receptors discriminating molecules of native proteins and endogenic phlogogenes on principle "right-wrong" is the basis of biological function of inherent immunity. In case of hyperglycemia and diabetes glucose becomes the minor biological "refuse". The products of chemical reaction between glucose and proteins and formation of the end products of glycosylation, components of areolar tissue become the major biological "refuse". The accumulation of products of glycosylation of collagen with cross-links in capillaries' wall increases its rigidity and makes it impossible for pericytes to implement the qualities of primary peristaltic pump. Hence the formation of hypoperfusion, condition of hypoxemia in microcirculatory section of blood circulation (muscular type arteriolae, postateriolae with muscular sphincter, metabolic capillaries) resulting in the development of microangiopathies of distal section of arterial bed. The formation of end products of glycosylation and major biological "refuse" equally are the cause of its accumulation in arteries intima as local pool of accumulation and utilization of biological "refuse" from intravascular intercellular medium during biological reaction of transcytosis and activation of formation of macroangiopathies in the form of atheromatosis of proximal section of arterial bed.

Aims: Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) account for about 80% of the mesenchymal tumors of the GI tract. About 5000-6000 patients are diagnosed in the United States (US) alone, and up to 14.5 cases per million discovered in Europe annually.

Background: Patients with lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) receiving drug treatment often have an unpredictive response and there is a lack of effective methods to predict treatment outcome for patients. Dendritic cells (DCs) play a significant role in the tumor microenvironment and the DCs-related gene signature may be used to predict treatment outcome. Here, we screened for DC-related genes to construct a prognostic signature to predict prognosis and response to immunotherapy in LUAD patients.

Genome-scale metabolic models (GSMM) are commonly used to identify gene deletion sets that result in growth coupling and pairing product formation with substrate utilization and can improve strain performance beyond levels typically accessible using traditional strain engineering approaches. However, sustainable feedstocks pose a challenge due to incomplete high-resolution metabolic data for non-canonical carbon sources required to curate GSMM and identify implementable designs. Here we address a four-gene deletion design in the Pseudomonas putida KT2440 strain for the lignin-derived non-sugar carbon source, p-coumarate (p-CA), that proved challenging to implement.

Recent emphasis on the development of safe-and-sustainable-by-design chemicals highlights the need for methods facilitating the early assessment of persistence. Activated sludge experiments have been proposed as a time- and resource-efficient way to predict half-lives in simulation studies. Here, this persistence "read-across" approach was developed to be more broadly and robustly applicable.

Rationale: It is imperative to be cautious about the potential systemic allergic reaction caused by the combined use of Qing Kailing Injection (QKI) and clindamycin as it may be life-threatening.
Patient Concerns: A 48-year-old female with a history of hypertension was admitted to a private hospital with a fever and cough. She was diagnosed with lung infection and received QKI infusion, followed by clindamycin infusion.
