For foodborne pathogens pose a serious threat to public health, a magnetic separation strategy and a nanozyme-based biosensor are proposed for biosensing of Listeria monocytogenes (L. monocytogenes). In this work, doripenem is selected as a recognized molecule for the modification of magnetic beads to capture L.monocytogenes in food and environmental samples. Furthermore, the POD-like MXene-Hemin-Au is constructed from perspective of charge transfer engineering which provides a vivid example to rational design of nanozymes. Finally, the captured L.monocytogenes is labeled with MXene-Hemin-Au@mAb, forming the sandwich complexes for quantitative determination. The current signals that generated by the complexes exhibit a good linear relationship with a limit of detection of 2.3 × 10 CFU/mL. The biosensor shows a satisfactory applicability in real samples with recoveries of 91.19% to 102.98%. Overall, the biosensor with integrated magnetic separation strategy presents a potential approach for high sensitivity biosensing of foodborne pathogens.

The radical pair mechanism accounts for the magnetic field sensitivity of a large class of chemical reactions and is hypothesised to underpin numerous magnetosensitive traits in biology, including the avian compass. Traditionally, magnetic field sensitivity in this mechanism is attributed to radical pairs with weakly interacting, well-separated electrons; closely bound pairs were considered unresponsive to weak fields due to arrested spin dynamics. In this study, we challenge this view by examining the FAD-superoxide radical pair within cryptochrome, a protein hypothesised to function as a biological magnetosensor.

However, whether fatty infiltration is a consequence of a neurogenic process due to spinal nerve root compression has not yet been determined.
Objective: To investigate the correlation between fatty infiltration of the paraspinal muscles (PM) and neurogenic remodeling of motor unit action potentials (MUAPs) in patients with lumbar radiculopathy.

Background: To develop and validate an interpretable machine learning model based on intratumoral and peritumoral radiomics combined with clinicoradiological features and metabolic information from magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS), to predict clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa, Gleason score ≥ 3 + 4) and avoid unnecessary biopsies.
Methods: This study retrospectively analyzed 350 patients with suspicious prostate lesions from our institution who underwent 3.0 Tesla multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) prior to biopsy (training set, n = 191, testing set, n = 83, and a temporal validation set, n = 76).

Background: Soft-tissue sarcomas are rare tumors of the soft tissue. Recent diagnostic studies mainly dealt with conventional image analysis and included only a few cases. This study investigated whether low- and high-proliferative soft tissue sarcomas can be differentiated using conventional imaging and radiomics features on MRI.

Understanding protein structure is essential for elucidating its function. Cross-linking mass spectrometry (XL-MS) has been widely recognized as a powerful tool for analyzing protein complex structures. However, the effect of cross-linker backbone structure on protein dynamic conformation analysis remains less understood.
