Multimodal Assessment of Gentiopicroside's Protective Effect in CDCA-induced HepG2 Cell Injury.

The primary active component of Swertia chirayita, gentiopicroside (GPS), has been shown to shield the liver in cholestasis instances. In order to elucidate the protective mechanism of GPS on cholestatic liver injury, HepG2 cells were treated with chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA) to simulate the cholestasis environment in vitro, and the CCK-8 method was used to determine the protective effect of GPS on HepG2 cells. Using a biological kit, the contents of intracellular TBA, T-CHO, TG, ALP, ALT, AST, GSH, IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, SOD, and MDA were detected.

Introducing Triplex Forming Oligonucleotide into Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification for Developing a Lateral Flow Biosensor for Streptococci Detection.

Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) technology is extensively utilized for the detection of infectious diseases owing to its rapid processing and high sensitivity. Nevertheless, conventional LAMP signaling methods frequently suffer from a lack of sequence specificity. This study integrates a triplex-forming oligonucleotide (TFO) probe into the LAMP process to enhance sequence specificity.
