H2 protects H9c2 cells from hypoxia/reoxygenation injury by inhibiting the Wnt/CX3CR1 signaling pathway.

Myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury is a severe cardiovascular disease, and its treatment and prevention are crucial for improving patient prognosis and reducing the economic burden. This study aimed to explore the impact of hydrogen (H2) on hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) injury in H9c2 cells (derived from rat embryonic heart tissue) induced by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and to elucidate its underlying mechanism. An H/R injury model was established in H9c2 cells via exposure to 15 μM H2O2 for 3 hours, followed by incubation in a 5% CO2 atmosphere at 37°C for 24 hours.

Inetetamab combined with S-1 and oxaliplatin as first-line treatment for human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-positive gastric cancer.

Background: Patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive advanced gastric cancer have poor outcomes. Trastuzumab combined with chemotherapy is the first-line standard treatment for HER2-positive advanced gastric cancer. Inetetamab is a novel anti-HER2 drug, and its efficacy and safety in gastric cancer have not yet been reported.

Blood brain barrier-targeted delivery of double selenium nanospheres ameliorates neural ferroptosis in Alzheimer's disease.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) as a common neurodegenerative disease showed progressive cognitive dysfunction and behavioral impairment. Currently, the deposition of amyloid β-protein (Aβ) remains the main pathomechanism. However, preventing neuronal death induced by Aβ remains elusive, and no effective strategy in clinic was found to combat AD.

Cervical Chylous Leakage Combined With Chylothorax: A Case Report of a Rare Complication Postretroperitoneal Surgery and Its Management: A Case Report of Chylous Leakage.

Chylous leakage is an uncommon and serious clinical condition, especially occurring after retroperitoneal operations. Here, we report a case of cervical chylous leakage combined with chylothorax in a 57-year-old woman postretroperitoneal surgery, and our conservative approach led to resolution/clinical improvement. The causes of this rare complication are discussed.

Single-cell RNA-seq analysis revealed the stemness of a specific cluster of B cells in acute lymphoblastic leukemia progression.

Background: Childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is a common pediatric cancer. The heterogeneous characterization of B cells in ALL progression poses new challenges to researchers. We used single-cell sequencing to explore the critical role of B cells in regulating the ALL immune microenvironment.

Causal Relationship Between Childhood Obesity and Sleep Apnea Syndrome: Bidirectional Two-Sample Mendelian Randomization Analysis.

Background: Childhood obesity has become a global pandemic, leading to a range of diseases. Childhood obesity appears to be associated with an increased prevalence of sleep apnea syndrome. Sleep apnea is an inestimable risk factor for thrombosis, hypertension, cardiomyopathy and many other diseases.

Elevated serum and cerebrospinal fluid levels of Interleukin-4 related to poor outcome of Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage.

Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) is a hemorrhagic cerebrovascular disease that seriously jeopardizes human life and health. Some studies have shown that although Interleukin-4 (IL-4) acts as an anti-inflammatory factor, IL-4 levels are elevated when the disease occurs. This study focuses on exploring the relationship between IL and 4 concentrations in the serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and poor outcome in patients with aSAH.

Prevention and Treatment Strategies for Alzheimer's Disease: Focusing on Microglia and Astrocytes in Neuroinflammation.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a fatal neurodegenerative disease characterized by its insidious onset and progressive development, making it the most common form of dementia. Despite its prevalence, the exact causes and mechanisms responsible for AD remain unclear. Recent studies have highlighted that inflammation in the central nervous system (CNS) plays a crucial role in both the initiation and progression of AD.

Fisetin reduces ovalbumin-triggered airway remodeling by preventing phenotypic switching of airway smooth muscle cells.

Background: The transformation of airway smooth muscle cells (ASMCs) from a quiescent phenotype to a hypersecretory and hypercontractile phenotype is a defining feature of asthmatic airway remodeling. Fisetin, a flavonoid compound, possesses anti-inflammatory characteristics in asthma; yet, its impact on airway remodeling and ASMCs phenotype transition has not been investigated.

Objectives: This research seeked to assess the impact of fisetin on ovalbumin (OVA) induced asthmatic airway remodeling and ASMCs phenotype transition, and clarify the mechanisms through network pharmacology predictions as well as in vivo and in vitro validation.

Burden of cardiovascular disease attributable to lead exposure in China: a comprehensive analysis of data from 1990 to 2019.

Objective: To analyze the burden of cardiovascular disease (CVD) caused by lead pollution exposure in China from 1990 to 2019.

Methods: Utilizing data from the Global Burden of Disease 2019 (GBD 2019), this research examines the changes in the number of CVD deaths, deaths rates, disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) and DALY rates, as well as their age-normalization rates, due to lead pollution exposure in China from 1990 to 2019. Joinpoint was used to estimate average annual percentage of change (AAPC) and reflect the time change trend of the burden of CVD caused by lead pollution exposure in China, the world and different socio-demographic index (SDI) regions.

The molecular mechanism of berberine affecting psoriasis skin inflammation by regulating keratinocyte pyroptosis via the p38 MAPK/NF-κB pathway.

Berberine (BBR), a Rhizoma Coptis-sourced isoquinoline alkaloid, is an effective drug for psoriasis treatment with its therapeutic mechanism remaining unclear. We delved into the mechanism of BBR affecting psoriatic skin inflammation by regulating keratinocyte pyroptosis. A psoriasis-like skin inflammation mouse model was induced by imiquimod (IMQ) and treated with BBR and a p38 activator anisomycin.

Identifying and Visualizing Global Research Trends and Hotspots of Artificial Intelligence in Medical Ultrasound: A Bibliometric Analysis.

Background: Applications of artificial intelligence (AI) in medical ultrasound have rapidly grown in recent years. Therefore, it is necessary to identify and visualize global research trends and hotspots of AI in medical ultrasound to provide guidance for further exploitation.

Objective: This study aims to highlight the global research trends and hotspots of the top 100 most-cited papers related to AI in medical ultrasound by combining quantitative and visualization methods.

SOX4-BMI1 axis promotes non-small cell lung cancer progression and facilitates angiogenesis by suppressing ZNF24.

The incidence of lung cancer has become the highest among all cancer types globally, also standing as a leading cause of cancer-related deaths. Lung cancer is broadly divided into small cell lung cancer (SCLC) and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), with the latter accounting for 85% of total cases. SRY-box transcription factor 4 (SOX4), a crucial transcription factor, has been found to play a key role in the development of various cancers.

Identification of Immune-Related Genes as Potential Biomarkers in Early Septic Shock.

Introduction: Septic shock, a severe manifestation of infection-induced systemic immune response, poses a critical threat resulting in life-threatening multi-organ failure. Early diagnosis and intervention are imperative due to the potential for irreversible organ damage. However, specific and sensitive detection tools for the diagnosis of septic shock are still lacking.
