Cultivated Chinese cordyceps, an optimal substitute for the endangered wild resource, has recently been produced on a large scale. This work sought to explore the structural features and immunomodulatory activity of a novel low-molecular-weight polysaccharide (CSP1a, 15.7 kDa) isolated from cultivated Chinese cordyceps.

Background: Mitochondrial E3 ubiquitin ligase (MARCH5) as an important regulator in maintaining mitochondrial function. Our aims were to investigate the role and mechanism of MARCH5 in aortic valve calcification.
Methods: Human aortic valves, both calcified and non-calcified, were analyzed for MARCH5 expression using western blot.

Fragment-Based Drug Discovery (FBDD) has revolutionized drug discovery by overcoming the challenges of traditional methods like combinatorial chemistry and high-throughput screening (HTS). Leveraging small, low-molecular-weight fragments, FBDD achieves higher hit rates, reduced screening costs, and faster development timelines for clinically relevant drug candidates. This review explores FBDD's core principles, innovative methodologies, and its success in targeting diverse protein classes, including previously "undruggable" targets.

The dynamic landscape of mRNA technology highlights the need for innovative quality control (QC) strategies. In this study, we described an efficient one-step digestion approach for concurrent generation of 5'- and 3'-end fragments, enabling simultaneous mRNA capping and poly(A) tail analysis. Tailored 10-23-type DNAzymes, designed from 5'- and 3'-Untranslated Regions (UTRs), selectively cleaved mRNA to release both the 5'-Capped or uncapped short fragments and 3'-Poly(A) tail cleavage products.

Objectives: Mesothelin (MSLN) is an antigen that is overexpressed in various cancers, and its interaction with tumor-associated cancer antigen 125 plays a multifaceted role in tumor metastasis. The serum MSLN expression level can be detected using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay; however, non-invasive visualization of its expression at the tumor site is currently lacking. Therefore, the aim of this study was to develop a molecular probe for imaging MSLN expression through positron emission tomography (PET).
