Article Abstract
is one of the most threatening invasive plant species in the world. Its invasion has greatly reduced the species diversity of the invaded areas. The development of fungal herbicides using phytopathogenic fungi has attracted considerable attention in recent years. In this study, a tissue isolation method was used to isolate and screen the strain SWFU-MM002 with strong pathogenicity to leaves from naturally occurring . Through morphological observation, , , and gene sequence homology, we compare and construct a phylogenetic tree to determine their taxonomic status. In addition, the biological characteristics of strain SWFU-MM002 were studied. The results showed that, combined with morphological and molecular biology identification, the strain was identified as ; biological characteristic research showed that the optimal medium for the growth of mycelium of this strain is PDA medium. At the optimal temperature of 27 °C and pH between 6 and 10, the mycelium can grow well. The best carbon and nitrogen sources are maltose and peptone, respectively. Analysing the infection process under a light microscope showed that SWFU-MM002 mycelia invaded the leaf tissue through stomata and colonized, eventually causing damage to the host. This is the first report of leaf spot of caused by . This study can lay a solid foundation for the development of as a control agent for .

Background: Despite the well-documented immune dysregulation in both psoriasis and Sjögren's syndrome (SS), the specific link between these two autoimmune diseases has not been extensively explored. The present study aims to investigate the impact of psoriasis on the risk of SS.
Methods: A retrospective cohort study using TriNetX data compared SS development in patients with psoriasis and controls using propensity score matching, Kaplan-Meier curves, and Cox models.

Background: Intracerebral amyloid β (Aβ) accumulation is considered the initial observable event in the pathological process of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Efficient screening for amyloid pathology is critical for identifying patients for early treatment. This study developed machine learning models to classify positron emission tomography (PET) Aβ-positivity in participants with preclinical and prodromal AD using data accessible to primary care physicians.

Background: Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is characterized by its cellular complexity, with a microenvironment consisting of diverse cell types, including oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) and neoplastic CD133 + radial glia-like cells. This study focuses on exploring the distinct cellular transitions in GBM, emphasizing the role of alternative polyadenylation (APA) in modulating microRNA-binding and post-transcriptional regulation.
Results: Our research identified unique APA profiles that signify the transitional phases between neoplastic cells and OPCs, underscoring the importance of APA in cellular identity and transformation in GBM.

Background: Human responses and acclimation to the environmental stresses of high altitude and low oxygen are multifaceted and regulated by multiple genes. However, the mechanism of how the body adjusts in a low-oxygen environment is not yet clear.
Results: Hence, we performed RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) and ATAC sequencing (ATAC-seq) to observe the changes of transcriptome and chromatin accessibility in the peripheral blood of eight individuals at 1 h post adaptation in a simulated plateau environment with 3500 m and 4500 m altitude, respectively.

Background: Small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) derived from mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are recognized for their therapeutic potential in immune modulation and tissue repair, especially in veterinary medicine. This study introduces an innovative sequential stimulation (IVES) technique, involving low-oxygen gas mixture preconditioning using in vitro fertilization gas (IVFG) and direct current electrical stimulation (ES20), to enhance the anti-inflammatory properties of sEVs from canine adipose-derived MSCs (cAD-MSCs). Initial steps involved isolation and comprehensive characterization of cAD-MSCs, including morphology, gene expression, and differentiation potentials, alongside validation of the electrical stimulation protocol.
