Macrophages play important roles in metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), an advanced and inflammatory stage of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). In humans and mice, the cellular heterogeneity and diverse function of hepatic macrophages in MASH have been investigated by single cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq). However, little is known about their roles in rats.

Background: Colorectal cancer screening with fecal immunochemical testing (FIT) is a process that depends on diagnostic colonoscopy for those with a positive test and completion of colonoscopy after positive FIT is an essential element of program effectiveness.
Aims: We examined how the COVID-19 pandemic influenced completion of diagnostic colonoscopy after positive FIT in our integrated healthcare system.
Methods: This was a retrospective study of all positive FIT over a 5-year period.

Protein-nucleic acid interactions play a crucial role in many physiological processes. Identifying the binding sites of nucleotides on the protein surface is the prerequisite for understanding the molecular recognition mechanisms between the two types of macromolecules and also provides the information to design or generate molecule modulators against these sites to manipulate biological function according to specific requirements. Existing studies mainly focus on characterizing local surfaces around sites, often neglecting the interrelationships among these sites and the global protein information.

To significantly reduce CRC incidence and mortality, a more convenient screening measure for advanced precancerous lesions (APL) and CRC is urgently needed.

Objectives: To describe the disease burden of AAE-C1-INH, long-term prophylaxis (LTP) and the clinical, immunochemical and treatment profiles of AAE-associated diseases in UK.
