The Effect of Copper-Graphene Composite Architecture on Thermal Transport Efficiency.

Materials (Basel)

November 2023

The World-Class Advanced Digital Technologies Research Center, Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University, 29 Polytechnicheskaya Str., 195251 St. Petersburg, Russia.

This paper presents the results of molecular dynamic modeling, revealing that inserting confined graphene layers into copper crystal reduces the thermal conductivity of the whole composite, and the coefficient of thermal conductivity decreases upon an increase in the number of graphene layers. The injection of one, two, and three layers of 15 nm graphene leads to a change in the coefficient of thermal conductivity from 380 W/(m·K) down to 205.9, 179.

Individual Variability of Broca's Area of the Brain in Women.

Bull Exp Biol Med

October 2023

Bashkir State Medical University, Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation, Ufa, Republic of Bashkortostan, Russia.

In this article, we studied individual features of the macroscopic structure of Broca's area of the brains in 9 women (18 hemispheres) aged from 20 to 30 years, without any mental or neurological disorders. By using MRI, the structures of the sulci and gyri of the pars triangularis and pars opercularis of Broca's area were studied: the anterior and ascending rami of the lateral sulcus, the radial, diagonal, precentral, inferior frontal, and lateral sulci. We also studied the relationship between the pars triangularis and pars opercularis as well as their relationships with neighboring cortical structures.

MiRNAs and Their Role in Venous Thromboembolic Complications.

Diagnostics (Basel)

November 2023

Department of Pharmacology, The Key Laboratory of Cardiovascular Research, Ministry of Education, College of Pharmacy, Harbin Medical University, Harbin 150067, China.

Venous thromboembolic complications (VTCs), which include deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE), have remained a pressing problem in modern clinical medicine for a long time. Despite the already wide arsenal of modern methods for diagnosing and treating this disease, VTCs rank third in the structure of causes of death among all cardiovascular diseases, behind myocardial infarction (MI) and ischemic stroke (IS). Numerous studies have confirmed the importance of understanding the molecular processes of VTCs for effective therapy and diagnosis.

Background: The mitochondrial genome is substantially susceptible to mutations and has high polymorphism due to structural features, location, and lack of recombinant variability, as its inheritance is strictly maternal. All of these events can be accompanied by the accumulation of mitochondrial single nucleotide polymorphisms (mtSNPs) in the sperm. The aim of this research was to analyze the influence of mutations in the MT-CYB gene on sperm quality.

Anticancer and Antiphytopathogenic Activity of Fluorinated Isatins and Their Water-Soluble Hydrazone Derivatives.

Int J Mol Sci

October 2023

Arbuzov Institute of Organic and Physical Chemistry, FRC Kazan Scientific Center, Russian Academy of Sciences, Akad. Arbuzov St. 8, Kazan 420088, Russia.

A series of new fluorinated 1-benzylisatins was synthesized in high yields via a simple one-pot procedure in order to explore the possible effect of ortho-fluoro (), chloro (), or bis-fluoro () substitution on the biological activity of this pharmacophore. Furthermore, the new isatins could be converted into water-soluble isatin-3-hydrazones using their acid-catalyzed reaction with Girard's reagent P and its dimethyl analog. The cytotoxic action of these substances is associated with the induction of apoptosis caused by mitochondrial membrane dissipation and stimulated reactive oxygen species production in tumor cells.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a multifactorial disease of the respiratory system which develops as a result of a complex interaction of genetic and environmental factors closely related to lifestyle. We aimed to assess the combined effect of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway (PIK3R1, AKT1, MTOR, PTEN) and sirtuin (SIRT1, SIRT3, SIRT6) genes to COPD risk. SNPs of SIRT1 (rs3758391, rs3818292), SIRT3 (rs3782116, rs536715), SIRT6 (rs107251), AKT1 (rs2494732), PIK3R1 (rs10515070, rs831125, rs3730089), MTOR (rs2295080, rs2536), PTEN (rs701848, rs2735343) genes were genotyped by real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) among 1245 case and control samples.

Cell-Free miRNAs as Non-Invasive Biomarkers in Brain Tumors.

Diagnostics (Basel)

September 2023

Department of Neurosurgery, Azienda Ospedaliero Universitaria Pisana (AOUP), University of Pisa, 56100 Pisa, Italy.

Diagnosing brain tumors, especially malignant variants, such as glioblastoma, medulloblastoma, or brain metastasis, presents a considerable obstacle, while current treatment methods often yield unsatisfactory results. The monitoring of individuals with brain neoplasms becomes burdensome due to the intricate tumor nature and associated risks of tissue biopsies, compounded by the restricted accuracy and sensitivity of presently available non-invasive diagnostic techniques. The uncertainties surrounding diagnosis and the tumor's reaction to treatment can lead to delays in critical determinations that profoundly influence the prognosis of the disease.
