A simple multiplexed digital microRNA detection strategy with fluorescence flow cytometry was proposed. By isothermal ligation-rolling circle amplification, multiplexed microRNAs could be simultaneously converted to a series of nanoflower balls (NFBs) and counted by flow cytometry directly.

Background: Owing to high sensitivity and ability for absolute quantification, the droplet digital polymerase chain reaction (ddPCR) is widely used for viral and bacterial detection. However, few studies have been conducted on the application of ddPCR to identify the original plant species used in traditional Chinese medicine and Chinese patent medicine.
Purpose: In this study, we investigated the feasibility of using ddPCR to differentiate between Notopterygium incisum and N.

Tertiary lymphoid structures (TLS) in the tumor microenvironment are prognostically beneficial in many solid cancer types. Reports on TLS in high-grade serous tubo-ovarian carcinoma (HGSC) are few, and the prognostic impact is unclear. We investigated mature TLS (mTLS), immature TLS (iTLS) and lymphoid aggregates (LA) in primary adnexal tumors (PTs) and synchronous omental/peritoneal metastases (pMets) of HGSC.

Background: T-cell infiltration into the brain parenchyma is associated with hyperphosphorylated tau (p-tau) accumulation in neurodegenerative diseases. Chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) is a progressive tauopathy caused by exposure to repetitive head impacts (RHI). CTE is defined by the perivascular accumulation of p-tau at the cortical sulcal depths and can be stratified into mild and severe pathological stages.

Background: The infectious hypothesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) suggests that microbes may play a role in pathogenesis by triggering the pathologic cascade or contributing to disease progression. Herpesviruses, such as Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), have been of high interest in AD and related neurodegenerative diseases, in part due to their ability to establish lifelong latent infection and potentially reactivate. However, further research is needed to fully understand the role of herpesviruses in these diseases.

Background: Lewy body disease (LBD) often co-occurs with Alzheimer's (AD), resulting in more significant cognitive decline than AD or LBD alone. LBD's hallmarks, asyn-positive Lewy bodies and neurites, propagate from the enteric system or olfactory bulb to the amygdala, which acts as a gatekeeper for spread to other structures. Initially, LBD appears in the central or cortical nuclei, reflecting brainstem or olfactory origins.
