In tea (), anthocyanins are important secondary metabolites that are linked to leaf color. Anthocyanin biosynthesis is a complex biological process, in which multiple genes including structural and regulatory genes are involved. Here, we describe the cloning and characterizing of a new R2R3-MYB transcription factor gene, , isolated from purple tea variety ''.

In October of 2023, the American Heart Association (AHA) published a scientific statement and advisory that defined a novel entity, the Cardiovascular-Kidney-Metabolic (CKM) Syndrome. The overall framework proposes that a substantial proportion of cardiovascular disease (CVD) burden is attributable to a syndrome that extends in stages from: Stage 1) obesity, Stage 2) metabolic/kidney risk factors for CVD (diabetes mellitus, chronic kidney disease (CKD), hypertension, and dyslipidemia), Stage 3) subclinical CVD, and finally Stage 4) clinical CVD. The report that describes the CKM paradigm documents the scientific justification for a syndrome, highlights the overlap in risk factors among individuals with obesity, diabetes, CKD, and CVD, and aligns the evidence and guideline statements that address screening, prevention, and management of these conditions.

Background: Programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) inhibitors are commonly used worldwide for the management of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, it remains unclear whether pembrolizumab and sintilimab, two of the most widely used PD-1 inhibitors in China, have significantly different effects on patients with NSCLC. A multicenter retrospective cohort study was designed and implemented using propensity-score matching (PSM) analysis to compare the effectiveness and safety profiles of pembrolizumab and sintilimab in patients with advanced NSCLC undergoing comprehensive therapy.

Introduction: Despite remarkable progress in Pediatric Acute Myeloid Leukemia (pAML) treatments, the relapsed disease remains difficult to treat, making it pertinent to identify novel biomarkers of prognostic/therapeutic significance.
Material And Methods: Bone marrow samples from 21 pAML patients were analyzed using single cell RNA sequencing, functional assays with knockdown and overexpression were performed in leukemia cell lines to evaluate impact on proliferation and migration, and chemotherapy sensitivity. Mitochondrial function was assessed via Seahorse assay, interacting proteins were studied using co-immunoprecipitation.
