We report herein five sensing platforms for the detection of five gastric cancer associated microRNAs (miRNAs). The sensing platforms are hybrids formed from a water-stable metal organic framework (MOF) {[Cu(dcbb)(HO)]·10HO} (1, HdcbbBr=1-(3,5-dicarboxybenzyl)-4,4'-bipyridinium bromide), respectively with five carboxyfluorescein (FAM) labeled probe single-stranded DNA (probe ss-DNA, denoted as P-DNA). Within the hybrid, MOF 1 tightly interacts with the P-DNA through electrostatic and/or π-stacking interactions and results in fluorescence quenching of FAM via a photo-induced electron transfer (PET) process. In the presence of the complementary target miRNAs miR-185, miR-20a, miR-92b, miR-25 and miR-210, which are expressed abnormally in the plasma of gastric carcinoma patients, P-DNA is released from the surface of MOF 1 ascribed to the stronger base pair matching, leading to the FAM fluorescence recovery. Each P-DNA@1 system is effective and reliable for the detection of its complementary target miRNA with the detection limits from 91 to 559pM, and is not interfered by other four miRNA sequences.

Introduction: The diagnosis of pediatric tuberculosis (TB) is challenging, due to the lower sensitivity of microbiological tests, such as culture and microscopy, compared to their performance in adult cases. Guidelines have introduced molecular tests, including GeneXpert MTB/ RIF and GeneXpert MTB/RIF Ultra. These tests use a real-time polymerase chain reaction method and provide information on M.

Health benefit effects of bioactive compounds depend on their bioavailabilities, which could vary according to factors including food matrix and digestion environment. To understand the "bioaccessible" health benefit of red pitay pulp, the INFOGEST static in vitro simulation of gastrointestinal (GI) digestion model and targeted metabolomics method were applied to unravel the fates of bioactive compounds in the whole food of red pitaya pulp during GI digestion. The antioxidant activity as one of the health benefit indices was also assessed to compare the changes in bioactive properties of red pitaya pulp.

Background: Prostaglandin D2 (PGD2) inhibits the development of different malignant tumors; however, the underlying mechanism of inhibiting tumor development is not yet clear. This study aimed to elucidate how PGD2 inhibits the stemness of gastric cancer stem cells (GCSCs) autophagy and its underlying molecular mechanism to provide a theoretical basis for the treatment of gastric cancer.

Methods: In this study, GCSCs were enriched by serum-free incubation.
