During menstrual cycle of women, the intensity of fluorescence of acid phosphatase (IAF) was registered in lysosomes from peripheral blood neutrophils after staining with Acridin orange. It has been shown that such integral values as criterion of agreement (chi(2)) and information entropy by Shennon (h) are most informative values of IAF. It is suggested that the dynamics of chi-square and h in menstrual cycle reflects changes in enzymatic activity, and is associated with destroying the ovum utilizing the products of its lysis.

Inner Mongolia Academy of Agricultural & Animal Husbandry Sciences, Hohhot 010031, China.

Background: The frequent occurrence of extreme temperature events causes significant economic losses to the livestock industry. Therefore, delving into the differences in the physiological and molecular mechanisms of heat stress across different sheep breeds is crucial for developing effective management and breeding strategies.

Methods: This study explores the differences in heat tolerance mechanisms between Hu sheep and Xinggao sheep by comparing their growth performance under normal and heat stress conditions, as well as examining the differences in physiological, biochemical, and antioxidant indicators related to heat tolerance, serum metabolomics, and gut microbiomics in a heat stress environment.

A fluorescence probe for "switch-on" detection of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) was developed based on Au nanoclusters anchored MnO nanosheets (Au NCs-MnO NSs), which were synthesized using bovine serum albumin (BSA) as template through a simple one-pot approach. In the sensing system, MnO NSs function as both energy acceptors and target identifiers, effectively quenches the fluorescence of Au NCs via fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET). The presence of ALP catalyzes the hydrolysis of L-ascorbic acid-2-phosphate (AAP) to ascorbic acid (AA), reducing MnO NSs to Mn and facilitate the fluorescence recovery of Au NCs.
