CD200 plays an important role in delivering an immunoregulatory signal to the immune system through interaction with its receptor. However, CD200 has not been characterized and its function in teleosts is unknown. In this study, the rock bream (Oplegnathus fasciatus) CD200 gene (RbCD200) was cloned and its expression profile was analyzed after infection with Edwardsiella tarda, Streptococcus iniae or red seabream iridovirus (RSIV). The coding region of RbCD200 cDNA was 855 bp, encoding 284 amino acid residues. The gene consisted of two extracellular Ig-like domains and a transmembrane domain. RbCD200 was highly expressed in the brain, erythrocytes, intestine and stomach of healthy rock bream. In the spleen, RbCD200 gene expression was down-regulated until 48 h after E. tarda exposure, except at 12 h RbCD200 gene expression was down-regulated then up-regulated at 12 h and 24 h after infection with S. iniae and RSIV, respectively. In the whole kidney, the RbCD200 gene was down-regulated in response to infection with E. tarda and S. iniae. However, RSIV infection increased RbCD200 gene expression in whole kidney until 48 h. These results suggest that RbCD200 is differentially expressed in the spleen and whole kidney after infection with different pathogens.

Rac/Rop proteins, a kind of unique small GTPases in plants, play crucial roles in plant growth and development and in response to abiotic and biotic stresses. However, it is poorly understood whether cotton Rac/Rop protein genes are involved in mediating cotton resistance to Verticillium dahliae. Here, we focused on the function and mechanism of cotton Rac/Rop gene GhRac9 in the defense response to Verticillium dahliae infection.

Cigarette smoke extract (CSE)-induced airway mucus hypersecretion and inflammation are prominent features of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). As a factor associated with inflammation regulation, T cell immunoglobulin and mucin domain-1 (TIM-1) is found to be involved in various inflammatory disorders such as asthma and COPD. In this study, the GEO database provides two human COPD gene expression datasets (GSE67472, n = 62) along with the relevant controls (n = 43) for differentially expressed gene (DEG) analyses.

In recent years, epigenetic modifications have attracted significant attention due to their unique regulatory mechanisms and profound biological implications. Acting as a bridge between environmental stimuli and changes in gene activity, they reshape gene expression patterns, providing organisms with regulatory mechanisms to respond to environmental changes. A growing body of evidence indicates that epigenetic regulation plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis and progression of psoriasis.

Titanium (Ti)-based materials are favored for hard tissue applications, yet their bioinertness limits their success. This study hypothesizes that functionalizing Ti materials with chitosan nano/microspheres and calcitriol (VD) will enhance their bioactivity by improving cellular activities and mineralization. To test this, chitosan particles were applied uniformly onto Ti surfaces using electrophoretic deposition (EPD) at 20 V for 3 minutes.

Cleft lip and palate (CL/P) are prevalent congenital anomalies with complex genetic causes. The G874A mutation of T-box transcription factor 22 (TBX-22) gene is notably associated with CL/P, while the underlying mechanism remains to be clarified. Studies have shown that the restriction of epithelial-mesenchymal transformation (EMT) process in medial edge epithelial cells (MEEs) is crucial for CL/P development.
