Studies have found that the intracellular viscosity changes have close relationship with many diseases, therefore design and synthesis of fluorescent probe for testing intracellular viscosity is of great significance to the development of clinical. Herein, we developed a new two-photon near infrared probe (HCT) for viscosity imaging to discriminate normal and inflammatory models. Experimental results displayed that HCT has great sensitivity for the detection of viscosity, and based on the excellent performance of its photostability and lower cytotoxicity, HCT was successfully utilized for single-photon/ two-photon fluorescence imaging of the viscosity in living cells. More importantly, we employ HCT to further showcase in living tissues. Additionally, HCT could be used to discriminate between normal and inflamed mice, heralding its practical application in biomedical aspects.

Today, methamphetamine (METH) is being used by adolescents and young adults. Our previous research demonstrated that intrauterine exposure to METH induces apoptosis in testicles and seminiferous tubes. However, based on available literature, the mechanism of this effect remains unidentified.

Objective The prevalence of drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) strains is exacerbating the global burden of tuberculosis (TB), highlighting the urgent need for new treatment strategies for TB. Methods The recombinant adenovirus vaccine expressing cyclic di-adenosine monophosphate (c-di-AMP) phosphodiesterase B (CnpB) (rAd-CnpB), was administered to normal mice via mucosal immunization, either alone or in combination with drug therapy, to treat Mtb respiratory infections in mice.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the levels of antibodies in serum and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF).

Mitophagy, the selective degradation of mitochondria by autophagy, plays a crucial role in cancer progression and therapy response. This study aims to elucidate the role of mitophagy-related genes (MRGs) in cutaneous melanoma (CM) through single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) and machine learning approaches, ultimately developing a predictive model for patient prognosis. The scRNA-seq data, bulk transcriptomic data, and clinical data of CM were obtained from publicly available databases.

Purpose: Oral lichen planus (OLP) is a chronic inflammatory disease, in which T-Lymphocytes induce apoptosis of basal keratinocytes, leading to the formation of symptomatic lesions. It is assumed that blocking the cell death program and enhancing cell proliferation would be crucial to the healing process. The aim of the study was to verify the efficacy of Photobiomodulation (PBM) in OLP management, by evaluating the effects of laser irradiation on the processes of apoptosis and cell proliferation.

Maggots contain various kinds of polysaccharides and recent studies mostly concentrated on their anti-inflammatory functions. While the molecule mechanisms related to the polysaccharides inhibiting carcinogenesis remains unclear. Here we characterized the polysaccharides extracted from maggot (MEs) determining their anti-colon cancer potentials.
