Carboxylesterases (CarEs) represent one of the major detoxification enzyme families involved in insecticide resistance. However, the function of specific CarE genes in insecticide resistance is still unclear in the insect Nilaparvata lugens (Stål), a notorious rice crop pest in Asia. In this study, a total of 29 putative CarE genes in N. lugens were identified, and they were divided into seven clades; further, the β-esterase clade was significantly expanded. Tissue-specific expression analysis found that 17 CarE genes were abundantly distributed in the midgut and fat body, while 12 CarE genes were highly expressed in the head. The expression of most CarE genes was significantly induced in response to the challenge of nitenpyram, triflumezopyrim, chlorpyrifos, isoprocarb and etofenprox. Among these, the expression levels of NlCarE2, NlCarE4, NlCarE9, NlCarE17 and NlCarE24 were increased by each insecticide. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction and RNA interference assays revealed the NlCarE1 gene to be a candidate gene mainly involved in nitenpyram resistance, while simultaneously silencing NlCarE1 and NlCarE19 produced a stronger effect than silencing either one individually, suggesting a cooperative relationship in resistance formation. These findings lay the foundation for further clarification of insecticide resistance mediated by CarE in N. lugens.

Background: Targeted next-generation sequencing (tNGS) is a high-throughput and cost-effective diagnostic alternative for pneumonia, with the ability to simultaneously detect pathogens, antimicrobial resistance genes, and virulence genes. We aimed to explore the applicability of tNGS in the co-detection of the responsible pathogens, antimicrobial resistance (AMR) genes, and virulence genes in patients with pneumonia.
Methods: A prospective study was conducted among patients with suspected pneumonia at Ruijin Hospital from March 1 to May 31, 2023.

Background: Lower-grade glioma (LGG) exhibits significant heterogeneity in clinical outcomes, and current prognostic markers have limited predictive value. Despite the growing recognition of histone modifications in tumor progression, their role in LGG remains poorly understood. This study aimed to develop a histone modification-based risk signature and investigate its relationship with drug sensitivity to guide personalized treatment strategies.

Background: Renal fibrosis is crucial in the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD) to end-stage renal failure. Geniposide, an iridoid glycoside, has shown therapeutic potential in acute kidney injury, diabetic nephropathy, and atherosclerosis. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of geniposide in renal fibrosis and its underlying mechanisms.
