Group-I Fowl adenovirus (FAdV) is still widespread in China's chicken farms, leading to huge economic losses. The traditional PCR method, which can detect all serotypes at the same time, is not sensitive enough to obtain accurate results, especially in some samples containing only a low titer of virus, such as contaminated live vaccine. In order to solve this problem, this study developed a dot blot assay based on the above PCR method. A total of 6 probes targeting the conserved region of FAdV were designed and systematically optimized through sensitivity, accuracy, and stability analyses. Results showed that it is not only suitable for 12 serotypes, but also effectively improve the sensitivity, which increased more than 100 times in comparison with PCR assay. Moreover, this sensitivity was increased 100 times when detecting contaminated live vaccine samples, showing the great prospect of this method in daily monitoring.

Background: Neuronal cholesterol deficiency may contribute to the synaptopathy observed in Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Intact synaptic vesicle (SV) mobility is crucial for normal synaptic function, whereas disrupted SV mobility can trigger the synaptopathy associated with AD.

The scorpion Karsch is edible and has been an essential resource in traditional Chinese medicine for treating numerous diseases. In this study, two small peptides from hydrolysates were examined to elucidate their potential against gastric cancer. The small peptides (AK and GK) were identified using the LC-QTOF-MS-based approach.

Goose parvovirus (GPV) is an etiological agent of Derzsy's disease, afflicting geese and Muscovy ducks worldwide. Its high mortality rate among goslings and ducklings causes large losses to the waterfowl industry. Toward molecular and structural characterization, virus-like particles (VLPs) of GPV were produced, and the capsid structure was determined by cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM) at a resolution of 2.

Background: Casein kinase I protein Hrr25 plays important roles in many cellular processes, including autophagy, vesicular trafficking, ribosome biogenesis, mitochondrial biogenesis, and the DNA damage response in . Pin4 is a multi-phosphorylated protein that has been reported to be involved in the cell wall integrity (CWI) pathway and DNA damage response. Pin4 was reported to interact with Hrr25 in yeast two-hybrid and large-scale pulldown assays.

Background: Cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) is a type of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma that primarily affects the skin, rich in hyaluronic acid (HA). HA is a component of the extracellular matrix in the dermis and likely affects the development of CTCL, but the mechanism is poorly understood. Here we show that low-molecular-weight HA (LMWHA) possibly exacerbates CTCL, and bexarotene, already used in CTCL treatment, decreases HA production.
