Controllable assembly of DNA nanostructure provides a powerful way for quantitative analysis of various targets including nucleic acid molecules. In this study, we have designed detachable DNA nanostructures at electrochemical sensing interface and constructed a ligation chain reaction (LCR) strategy for amplified detection of miRNA. A three-dimensional DNA triangular prism nanostructure is fabricated to provide suitable molecule recognition environment, which can be further regenerated for additional tests via convenient pH adjustment. Target triggered LCR is highly efficient and specific towards target miRNA. Under optimal experimental conditions, this approach enables ultrasensitive exploration in a wide linear range with a single-base resolution. Moreover, it shows excellent performances for the analysis of cell samples and clinical serum samples.

Carboxypeptidase is a Zn-dependent protease that specifically recognises and hydrolyses peptides with a hydrophobic side chain at the C-terminal residue. According to hydrolysis mechanisms proposed in the literature, catalysis requires a water molecule to be close to the Zn ion so as to be activated as a nucleophile. Among small molecules that resemble the slowly hydrolysed Gly-Tyr peptide, which have been previously designed as inhibitors and characterised structurally, a variant with the terminal amino acid in a D-configuration has been the most effective.

Metabolic dysfunction has been demonstrated to contribute to diabetic pain, pointing towards a potential correlation between glucose metabolism and pain. To investigate the relationship between altered glucose metabolism and neuropathic pain, we compared samples from healthy subjects with those from intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD) patients, utilizing data from two public datasets. This led to the identification of 412 differentially expressed genes (DEG), of which 234 were upregulated and 178 were downregulated.

Background: The fat mass and obesity-associated protein (FTO) has been showed to be involved in the pathogenesis and progression of coronary artery disease (CAD). However, the effects of FTO variants on CAD risk remain poorly understood. We herein genotyped three SNPs (rs1121980, rs72803657, and rs4783818) in FTO to investigate the influence of FTO polymorphisms on individual susceptibility to CAD.

In this study, we introduce a new method for oligonucleotide fragment assembly. Unlike polymerase chain assembly and ligase chain assembly that rely on short, highly purified oligonucleotides, our method, named , uses a one-tube, splint-driven assembly reaction. Splynthesis connects standard-desalted "contig" oligos (∼150 nt in length) via shorter "splint" oligos harboring 5' and 3' blocking modifications to prevent off-target ligation and amplification events.

Diabetes exacerbates the occurrence and severity of periodontitis, the pathogenesis of diabetic periodontitis (DPD) is influenced by the delayed resolution of inflammation. Eldecalcitol (ED-71) has shown promise in preventing bone loss in DPD. We herein aimed to investigate the role of ED-71 in the inflammatory regression phase of DPD and elucidate the underlying mechanisms.
