Cuproptosis: A new mechanism for anti-tumour therapy.

As an indispensable trace metal element in the organism, copper acts as a key catalytic cofactor in a wide range of biological processes. Copper homeostasis disorders can be caused by either copper excess or deficiency, and copper homeostasis disorders will affect the normal physiological functions of cells and induce cell death through a variety of mechanisms, such as the emerging cuproptosis model. The imbalance of copper homeostasis will lead to the occurrence of cancer, and copper is a key factor in cell signalling, so copper is involved in the development of cancer by promoting cell proliferation, angiogenesis and metastasis, etc.

Zi Shen Wan Fang repaired blood-brain barrier integrity in diabetic cognitive impairment mice via preventing cerebrovascular cells senescence.

Background: Blood-brain barrier (BBB) integrity disruption is a key pathological link of diabetes-induced cognitive impairment (DCI), but the detailed mechanism of how the diabetic environment induces BBB integrity disruption is not fully understood. Our previous study found that Zi Shen Wan Fang (ZSWF), an optimized prescription consisting of Anemarrhenae Rhizoma (Anemarrhena asphodeloides Bge.), Phellodendri Chinensis Cortex (Phellodendron chinense Schneid.

Risk factors for complications of Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia in hospitalized children in China: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (MPP) is a common respiratory disease in children. Some patients may develop long-term respiratory issues such as chronic cough and wheezing due to complications. These complications increase the health burden for children with MPP, highlighting the need to understand their risk factors in order to improve disease prognosis.

Treatment of constipation with and its compatibility prescriptions.

Constipation is a common and prevalent digestive system disease in clinical practice, which seriously affects human physical and mental health. Currently, chemical drugs have good short-term therapeutic effects. However, because of their adverse reactions, easy recurrence after drug discontinuation, and dependence with long-term use, the long-term efficacy is unsatisfactory.

Aptasensor based on entropy-driven catalytic amplification system for the sensitive detection of acetamiprid in Chinese herbal medicine.

The traditional method of acetamiprid residue detection is difficult to operate, time-consuming, laborious and requires high professional knowledge of the detection personnel, which cannot meet the requirement of on-field rapid detection. For this reason, a colorimetric aptasensor based on an entropy-catalyzed amplification system was developed for the ultrasensitive and selective determination of acetamiprid. In the absence of acetamiprid, the aptamer and cDNA form a double-stranded structure.

Structural characteristics and potential antidepressant mechanism of a water-insoluble β-1,3-glucan from an edible fungus Wolfiporia cocos.

A water-insoluble β-1,3-glucan (Wβ) with a molecular weight of 8.12 × 10 Da was extracted from an edible fungus Wolfiporia cocos. Its backbone was composed of 1,3-β-linked Glcp branched at the C-2, C-4, and C-6 positions, connecting more 1,3-β-linked Glcp with a triple helical structure.

Isoprenaline Inhibits Histone Demethylase LSD1 to Induce Cardiac Hypertrophy.

Histone demethylation in cardiac hypertrophy is poorly understood. This study aims to determine the role of the histone demethylase LSD1 in pathological cardiac hypertrophy. Both isoprenaline (ISO)-treated and transverse aortic constriction (TAC)-treated rats developed hypertrophic hearts.

Acacetin alleviates rheumatoid arthritis by targeting HSP90 ATPase domain to promote COX-2 degradation.

Background: Inflammation plays a significant role in initiating and sustaining rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Acacetin, a natural flavonoid compound, exhibits excellent anti-inflammatory effects specifically for RA. However, its relevant targets and molecular mechanisms remain to be elucidated.

The Correlation Between Visceral Fat Area to Skeletal Muscle Mass Ratio and Multiorgan Insulin Resistance in Chinese Population With Obesity.

Insulin resistance (IR) is an important risk factor for obesity and cardiometabolic diseases, and our previous findings have demonstrated that visceral fat area to skeletal muscle mass ratio (VSR) is significantly and positively associated with the risk of cardiometabolic diseases. Hence, this study aimed to investigate the relationship between VSR and multiorgan IR, provide a new approach to improve body composition, and set the basis for VSR to increase the incidence of cardiometabolic diseases. The study included 398 patients who underwent anthropometric and biochemical measurements, and body composition assessment.

A Spatio-Temporal Capsule Neural Network with Self-Correlation Routing for EEG Decoding of Semantic Concepts of Imagination and Perception Tasks.

Decoding semantic concepts for imagination and perception tasks (SCIP) is important for rehabilitation medicine as well as cognitive neuroscience. Electroencephalogram (EEG) is commonly used in the relevant fields, because it is a low-cost noninvasive technique with high temporal resolution. However, as EEG signals contain a high noise level resulting in a low signal-to-noise ratio, it makes decoding EEG-based semantic concepts for imagination and perception tasks (SCIP-EEG) challenging.
