Morphological characteristics, ITS sequences, and active compounds have been used to differentiate between species of used in the traditional Chinese medicines Flos Lonicerae Japonicae (FLJ) and Flos Lonicerae (FL). FLJ includes whereas FJ includes , , and . FLJ could be distinguished from FL using four quantitative and 10 qualitative characters, ITS sequences, chlorogenic acid and luteoloside contents. Analyses revealed that was very different from the other species. The results have implications for the identification and quality control of species of used medicinally, suggesting that species should not be interchanged in medicinal preparations.

Background: Ependymoma with lipomatous differentiation is a rare type of ependymoma. The ZFTA fusion-positive supratentorial ependymoma is a novel tumor type in the 2021 World Health Organization classification of central nervous system tumors. ZFTA fusion-positive lipomatous ependymoma has not been reported to date.

Several lines of evidence suggest that bactofilins polymerize into filaments using a central β-helical core domain, flanked by variable N- and C-terminal domains that may be important for scaffolding and other functions. However, a systematic exploration of the characteristics of these domains has yet to be performed.

Human cortical neurons differ from those of other species, such as rodents, in both their morphological and physiological characteristics. Could the distinct properties of human cortical neurons help explain the superior cognitive capabilities of humans? Understanding this relationship requires a metric to quantify how neuronal properties contribute to the functional complexity of single neurons, yet no such standardized measure currently exists.

To fully understand the variation in performance of cyclotrimethylenetrinitramine (RDX) crystals under strong magnetic field exposure, the strong magnetic loading of RDX was conducted in both stable and alternating magnetic fields. The morphological changes of RDX crystals exposed to magnetic fields were studied under a scanning electron microscope. Then, the lattice changes of RDX exposed to magnetic fields were analyzed through X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy.
