Dynamic Leader-Follower Hierarchies in Collective Cell Migration.

Collective migration of cancer cells, characterized by a structured leader-follower hierarchy, has emerged as a critical mechanism driving metastasis. During this process, leader cells play a pivotal role in environmental sensing, pathfinding, and signal transduction, while follower cells actively respond to these signals, facilitating stress transmission through cytoskeletal dynamics and cell-cell adhesions. Together, these interactions promote coordinated cancer invasion and metastasis.

Association Between the (GT)26 Allele in the GRIN2A Promoter and Opioid Use Disorder.

Objective: N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors are involved in the development of opioid use disorder. The (GT)n polymorphism (rs3219790) in the NMDA receptor 2A subunit gene (GRIN2A) has been proposed as a potential biomarker for risk of opioid use disorder. In this case-control study, we investigated the association between rs3219790 and opioid use disorder in a Chinese Han population.

Identification of amh and its potential signaling pathway involved in the ovary development in the largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides).

Anti-müllerian hormone (AMH), a member of the TGF-β family, plays a pivotal role in ovarian development by binding to its specific receptor, AMHR2. However, the function of amh/amhr2 pathway in fish ovarian development remains poorly understood. To elucidate its regulatory mechanism in largemouth bass, we identified amh and amhr2 genes from the largemouth bass genome and analyzed their expression patterns across different tissues and ovarian developmental stages.

Ibudilast-Mediated Suppression of Neuronal TLR4 in the Prefrontal Cortex Mitigates Methamphetamine-Induced Neuroinflammation and Addictive Behaviours.

Methamphetamine (METH) use leads to addiction, neurotoxicity, and neuroinflammation. Ibudilast, a toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) inhibitor, has been shown to reduce METH-induced neuroinflammation and self-administration, but its specific role in neuronal TLR4 signalling and associated behavioural outcomes remains poorly understood. This study examined Ibudilast's effects on METH reward, drug-seeking behaviour, and TLR4 signalling in a rat self-administration model.

Coupling analysis of diffusion tensor imaging analysis along the perivascular space (DTI-ALPS) with abnormal cerebral blood flow in methamphetamine-dependent patients and its application in machine-learning-based classification.

Background: Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) analysis along the perivascular space (ALPS) index is currently widely employed to evaluate the neurophysiological activity in various neuropsychiatric disorders. However, there remains a scarcity of studies assessing the DTI-ALPS index in individuals with methamphetamine (MA) dependence. Recent studies on animals have demonstrated a significant correlation between glymphatic activity and alterations in cerebral blood flow (CBF).

Nonalloyed α-phase formamidinium lead triiodide solar cells through iodine intercalation.

Formamidinium lead triiodide (FAPbI) is considered the most promising composition for high-performing single-junction solar cells. However, nonalloyed α-FAPbI is metastable with respect to the photoinactive δ-phase. We have developed a kinetic modulation strategy to fabricate high-quality and stable nonalloyed α-FAPbI films, assisted by cogenetic volatile iodine intercalation and decalation.

A binary 2D perovskite passivation for efficient and stable perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells.

To achieve high power conversion efficiency in perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells, it is necessary to develop a promising wide-bandgap perovskite absorber and processing techniques in relevance. To date, the performance of devices based on wide-bandgap perovskite is still limited mainly by carrier recombination at their electron extraction interface. Here, we demonstrate assembling a binary two-dimensional perovskite by both alternating-cation-interlayer phase and Ruddlesden-Popper phase to passivate perovskite/C interface.

N-Isopropylbenzylamine-induced conditioned place preference, sensitization behaviour and self-administration in rodents.

N-Isopropylbenzylamine (N-ipb), a chain isomer of methamphetamine (METH) with similar physical properties, has been used as a substitute for METH in seized drug samples. However, the abuse potential of N-ipb remains unclear. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the abuse potential of N-ipb in comparison to METH, by using conditioned place preference (CPP), locomotor sensitization and intravenous self-administration tests.

Physically and Chemically Stable Molybdenum-Based Composite Electrodes for p-i-n Perovskite Solar Cells.

Metal halide perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have garnered much attention in recent years. Despite the remarkable advancements in PSCs utilizing traditional metal electrodes, challenges such as stability concerns and elevated costs have necessitated the exploration of innovative electrode designs to facilitate industrial commercialization. Herein, a physically and chemically stable molybdenum (Mo) electrode is developed to fundamentally tackle the instability factors introduced by electrodes.

Anion Confinement for Homogeneous Mixed Halide Perovskite Film Growth by Electrospray.

Wide-bandgap perovskites are promising absorbers for state-of-the-art tandem solar cells to feasibly surpass Shockley-Queisser limit with low cost. However, the commonly used mixed halide perovskites suffer from poor stability; particularly, photoinduced phase segregation. Electrospray deposition is developed to bridge the gap of growth rate between iodide and bromide components during film growth by spatially confining the anion diffusion and eliminating the kinetic difference, which universally improves the initial homogeneity of perovskite films regardless of device architectures.

Mechanochemistry toward Organic "Salt" via Integer-Charge-Transfer Cocrystal Strategy for Rapid, Efficient, and Scalable Near-Infrared Photothermal Conversion.

Inspired by the concept of ionic charge-transfer complexes for the Mott insulator, integer-charge-transfer (integer-CT) cocrystals are designed for NIR photo-thermal conversion (PTC). With amino-styryl-pyridinium dyes and F4TCNQ (7,7',8,8'-Tetracyano-2,3,5,6-tetrafluoroquinodimethane) serving as donor/acceptor (D/A) units, integer-CT cocrystals, including amorphous stacking "salt" and segregated stacking "ionic crystal", are synthesized by mechanochemistry and solution method, respectively. Surprisingly, the integer-CT cocrystals are self-assembled only through multiple D-A hydrogen bonds (C-H⋅⋅⋅X (X=N, F)).

Cognitive Enhancer Donepezil Attenuates Heroin-Seeking Behavior Induced by Cues in Rats.

Purpose: Opioid use disorder is a significant global problem. Chronic heroin use is associated with impairment of cognitive function and conscious control ability. The cholinergic system can be disrupted following heroin administration, indicating that activation of the cholinergic system may prevent chronic heroin misuse.

Circulating plasma and exosome levels of the miR-320 family as a non-invasive biomarker for methamphetamine use disorder.

The neurobiological mechanism underlying methamphetamine (MA) use disorder was still unclear, and no specific biomarker exists for clinical diagnosis of this disorder. Recent studies have demonstrated that microRNAs (miRNAs) are involved in the pathological process of MA addiction. The purpose of this study was to identify novel miRNAs for the diagnosis biomarkers of MA user disorder.

Efficacy of non-pharmacological interventions on depressive symptoms in patients with Parkinson's disease: a study protocol for a systematic review and network meta-analysis.

Introduction: Depression is the most dominant non-motor symptom of Parkinson's disease (PD), with a prevalence of up to 50%, and can lead to a range of psychiatric and psychological problems that can affect quality of life and overall functioning. While several randomised controlled trials (RCTs) have tested the effect of certain non-pharmacological interventions on the outcome of PD depression symptoms, the comparative benefits and harms of these remain unclear. We will conduct a systematic review and network meta-analysis to compare the efficacy and safety of different non-pharmacological interventions for patients with PD depression.

Aberrant topology of white matter networks in patients with methamphetamine dependence and its application in support vector machine-based classification.

Brain white matter (WM) networks have been widely studied in neuropsychiatric disorders. However, few studies have evaluated alterations in WM network topological organization in patients with methamphetamine (MA) dependence. Therefore, using machine learning classification methods to analyze WM network topological attributes may give new insights into patients with MA dependence.
