A systematic re-study on gorgonian Muricella sibogae from South China Sea yielded 10 eunicellin-based diterpenoids including two new ones, sibogins C and D (1 and 2). Their structures were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic analyses (1D and 2D NMR, IR and MS) and by comparison with data reported in literatures. All the isolates were tested for cytotoxic and antifouling activities. Compounds 3 and 5 showed significant antifouling activity against the green mussel Perna viridis, and especially 3 was suggested as a potent low-toxic antifouling agent with a large LC50/EC50 value of 18.6. This was the first report on the antifouling activity of the eunicellin-type diterpenoids against the green mussel.

Background: Disease progression within 24 months (POD24) significantly impacts overall survival (OS) in patients with follicular lymphoma (FL). This study aimed to develop a robust predictive model, FLIPI-C, using a machine learning approach to identify FL patients at high risk of POD24.

Methods: A cohort of 1,938 FL patients (FL1-3a) from seventeen centers nationwide in China was randomly divided into training and internal validation sets (2:1 ratio).

The development and modification of grouting materials constitute crucial factors influencing the effectiveness of grouting. Given the pivotal role of water in the hydration of cement-based composite materials and construction processes, this study proposes an exploratory approach using green, economical magnetized water technology to enhance the performance of cement grouts. The research systematically investigates the effects of magnetized water on the fundamental grouting properties (stability, rheological behavior, and stone body strength) of cement grouts, prepared under varying magnetization conditions (including magnetic intensity, water flow speed, and cycle times).

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) play pivotal roles in the development and progression of various diseases, including malignant tumors. However, the biological functions and the underlying mechanisms of many circRNAs remain elusive. In this study, we identified a novel circRNA, circTP63-N, generated through the splicing of exons 2-4 of the TP63 gene in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC).
