A20 is a potent anti-inflammatory molecule, and mutations in TNFAIP3, the gene encoding A20, are associated with a wide panel of inflammatory pathologies, both in human and mouse. The anti-inflammatory properties of A20 are commonly attributed to its ability to suppress inflammatory NF-κB signaling by functioning as a ubiquitin-editing enzyme. However, A20 also protects cells from death, independently of NF-κB regulation, and recent work has demonstrated that cell death may drive some of the inflammatory conditions caused by A20 deficiency. Adding to the fact that the protective role of A20 does not primarily rely on its catalytic activities, these findings shed new light on A20 biology.

A switching active disturbance rejection control (SADRC) strategy was proposed to solve the composite disturbance challenge arising from gap, LuGre friction, hydraulic spring force, and external load disturbance in the double closed-loop digital hydraulic cylinder position control system. Firstly, leveraging the established mathematical model of the double closed-loop digital hydraulic cylinder, the high-order state equation was derived. Subsequently, the high-order double closed-loop digital hydraulic cylinder control system was transformed into a second-order integral series control system using ADRC strategy.

Oxidative stress and neuroinflammation play a pivotal role in pathomechanisms of brain ischemia. Our research aimed to formulate a nanotheranostic system for delivering carnosic acid as a neuroprotective agent with anti-oxidative and anti-inflammatory properties to ischemic brain tissue, mimicked by organotypic hippocampal cultures (OHCs) exposed to oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD). In the first part of this study, the nanocarriers were formulated by encapsulating two types of nanocores (nanoemulsion (AOT) and polymeric (PCL)) containing CA into multilayer shells using the sequential adsorption of charged nanoobjects method.

A novel type of concrete-encased steel (CES) composite column implementing Engineered Cementitious Composites (ECC) confinement (ECC-CES) has recently been introduced, offering significantly enhanced failure behavior, ductility, and toughness when compared to conventional CES columns. This study presents an innovative method for predicting the eccentric compressive capacity of ECC-CES columns, utilizing adaptive sampling and machine learning (ML) techniques. Initially, the research introduces a finite element (FE) model for ECC-CES columns, incorporating material and geometric nonlinearities to capture the inelastic behavior of both ECC and steel through appropriate constitutive material laws.
