Two endophytic bacterial strains, which could degrade high concentration (up to 200 mg.L-1) of phenanthrene in liquid, were isolated from plants grown in PAHs-contaminated soils by the selective. enrichment culture. According to the results of morphology, physiology and the phylogenetic analyses of 16S rDNA sequence, stain P1 was identified as Stenotrophomonas sp. , and strain P3 was identified as Pseudomonas sp.. Two strains were aerobic bacteria, the degradation rates of phenanthrene (100 mg.L-1) by strain P1 and strain P3 were all greater than 90% at 28 degrees C on the rotation shaker at 150 r.min-1 for 7 days. The degradation rates of phenanthrene by two strains were greater than 70% when cultivated under the conditions as: 20-30 degrees C , pH 6-8, 0%-4% NaCl, 10-30 mL/100 mL inventory. It suggested that the optimum culture condition was: 30 degrees C, pH 7.0, NaCl< or =4% , inventory < or = 30 mL/100 mL flask. Through comprehensive comparison analyses on the degradation capacity of two strains, it showed that the tolerance of strain P1 to high temperature was higher than that of str ain P3, while the tolerance of strain P3 to pH change and anoxic condition was higher than that of strain P1.

Background And Objectives: Levels of activated complement proteins in the CSF are increased in people with multiple sclerosis (MS) and are associated with clinical disease severity. In this study, we determined whether complement activation profiles track with quantitative MRI metrics and liquid biomarkers indicative of disease activity and progression.
Methods: Complement components and activation products (Factor H and I, C1q, C3, C4, C5, Ba, Bb, C3a, C4a, C5a, and sC5b-9) and liquid biomarkers (neurofilament light chain, glial fibrillary acidic protein [GFAP], CXCL-13, CXCL-9, and IL-12b) were quantified in the CSF of 112 patients with clinically isolated syndromes and 127 patients with MS; longitudinal MRIs according to a standardized protocol of the Swiss MS cohort were assessed.

Objective: To establish the prevalence of bronchiectasis, correlate the IgG IV or SC immunoglobulin dose and serum IgG levels with the total Bhalla score and the severity of bronchiectasis and associate serum IgG levels with the development of pulmonary infectious processes in patients with diagnosis of innate errors of immunity.
Methods: A descriptive, observational, cross-sectional study with patients over 18 years of age diagnosed with IBD. Clinical records and computed axial tomography were reviewed.

Aflatoxins (AFs), notorious mycotoxins that pose significant risks to human and animal health, make biodegradation extremely crucial as they offer a promising approach to managing and reducing their harmful impacts. In this study, we identified a manganese peroxidase from (Mnp) through protein similarity analysis, which has the capability to degrade four AFs (AFB, AFB, AFG, and AFG) simultaneously. The gene encoding this enzyme was subject to codon optimization, followed by cold shock induction expression using the pColdII vector, leading to the soluble expression of manganese peroxidase (Mnp) in .

Sepsis is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Among the various types of end-organ damage associated with sepsis, hepatic injury is linked to significantly higher mortality rates compared to dysfunction in other organ systems. This study aimed to investigate potential biomarkers of hepatic injury in sepsis patients through a multi-center, case-control approach.

Depression is a common and complex neuropsychiatric disorder affecting people of all ages worldwide, associated with high rates of relapse and disability. Neohesperidin (NEO) is a dietary flavonoid with applications in therapeutics; however, its effects on depressive-like behavior remain unknown. Here, we evaluated the effects of NEO on depressive-like behavior induced by chronic and unpredictable mild stress (CUMS).
