Background: Vibrio parahaemolyticus is a common pathogen infecting humans and marine animals; this pathogen has become a major concern of marine food products and trade. In this study, V. parahaemolyticus isolated from sewage was exposed to different culture conditions and analyzed by isobaric tag for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ) based reversed-phase liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) technique. Our goal is to gain further insights into the proteomics of V. parahaemolyticus, particularly differentially expressed proteins closely correlated with growth conditions and pathogenicity associated proteins.
Results: In this study, a total of 2,717 proteins including numerous membrane proteins were significantly identified, and 616 proteins displayed significant differential expression under different conditions. Of them, 12 proteins mainly participating in metabolism showed the most elastic expression differentiation between different culture conditions. Some membrane proteins such as type I secretion outer membrane protein, TolC, lipoprotein, efflux system proteins iron-regulated protein A and putaive Fe-regulated protein B, ferric siderophore receptor homolog and several V. parahaemolyticus virulence-associated proteins were differentially regulated under different conditions. Some differentially regulated proteins were analyzed and confirmed at gene expression level by quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR).
Conclusions: Proteomics analysis results revealed the characteristics of V. parahaemolyticus proteome expression, provided some promising biomarkers related with growth conditions, the results likely advance insights into the mechanism involved in the response of V. parahaemolyticus to different conditions. Some virulence-associated proteins were discovered to be differentially expressed under different conditions.

Dysuria, a feeling of pain or discomfort during urination, is often caused by urinary tract infection but can also be due to sexually transmitted infection, bladder irritants, skin lesions, and some chronic pain conditions. History is most often useful for finding signs of sexually transmitted infection, complicated infections, lower urinary symptoms in males, and noninfectious causes. Most patients presenting with dysuria should have a urinalysis performed.

The pathogenesis of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension may be multifactorial and requires further studies. We explored alterations in pulmonary artery endothelial cells under the hypoxic and elevated interleukin-17 conditions that are commonly present in patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension. We measured the serum interleukin-17 levels in 10 chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension patients and 10 healthy control persons.

Here, we used single cell RNA sequencing and single cell spatial transcriptomics to characterize the forebrain neural stem cell (NSC) niche under homeostatic and injury conditions. We defined the dorsal and lateral ventricular-subventricular zones (V-SVZs) as two distinct neighborhoods and showed that, after white matter injury, NSCs are activated to make oligodendrocytes dorsally for remyelination. This activation is coincident with an increase in transcriptionally distinct microglia in the dorsal V-SVZ niche.

Friedreich's ataxia (FRDA) is a multisystem, autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in the frataxin () gene. As FRDA is considered an FXN deficiency disorder, numerous therapeutic approaches in development or clinical trials aim to supplement FXN or restore endogenous expression. These include gene therapy, protein supplementation, genome editing or upregulation of transcription.

Background: Epilepsy is a neurological disorder affecting millions of people in Africa. Among other reported findings, many people living with epilepsy (PLWE) believe that the condition is caused by spiritual factors. Previous studies have revealed that majority of PLWE are not receiving adequate care and treatment because of diverse cultural beliefs associated with epilepsy.
