Multi-Target Inhibitor of ZJQ- 3 F Against AChE/BACE1/GSK3β Targets Improves the Cognitive Impairment of APP/PS1/Tau Triple-Transgenic Mouse Models of Alzheimer's Disease.

Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a multifactorial neuropathology characterized by the accumulation of amyloid-beta (Aβ) plaques, neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) and cholinergic system dysfunction. At present, there is no effective treatment strategy for AD. Our previous research showed that ZJQ-3F acts as an inhibitor of AChE/BACE1/GSK3β, and showed good blood-brain barrier permeability, appropriate bioavailability and oral safety.

The immunomodulatory role of the MAFB gene in hepatocellular carcinoma and its impact on biological activities.

Objective: The transcription factor MAFB is part of the MAF family and is known to promote hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) by upregulating cyclin D1. However, its role in HCC immunity and prognosis remains unclear. This study explores the biological function, prognostic significance, and immune impact of MAFB in HCC.

CARD9 promotes cholangiocarcinoma by regulating the IL-17A/Hedgehog and the THEM4/AKT/mTOR signaling pathways.

Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is a highly lethal malignant tumor originating from the bile duct, and its underlying mechanisms are not fully understood. In order to identify key genes in CCA, we downloaded gene expression data from public GSE76297, GSE26566 and TCGA-CHOL datasets. CARD9 was selected as a CCA-related gene from the datasets.

Identification of transcriptional signature change and critical transcription factors involved during the differentiation of mouse trophoblast stem cell into maternal blood vessel associated trophoblast giant cell.

The placenta is essential organ for oxygen and nutrient exchange between the mother and the developing fetus. Trophoblast lineage differentiation is closely related to the normal function of the placenta. Trophoblast stem cells (TSCs) can differentiate into all placental trophoblast subtypes and are widely used as in vitro stem cell models to study placental development and trophoblast lineage differentiation.

Complete mitochondrial genome data and phylogenetic analysis of Janson, 1877 (Lepidoptera: Papilionoidea: Papilionidae).

In the present study, the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of the (Lepidoptera: Papilionoidea: Papilionidae) was sequenced by next-generation sequencing method. The mitochondrial genome is a circular DNA molecule of 15,264 bp in size with 80.7% AT content, including 37 genes (13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes, and 22 tRNA genes), and a long non-coding region (Control region).

The mitochondrial UPR induced by ATF5 attenuates intervertebral disc degeneration via cooperating with mitophagy.

Intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD) is an aging disease that results in a low quality of life and heavy socioeconomic burden. The mitochondrial unfolded protein response (UPR) take part in various aging-related diseases. Our research intents to explore the role and underlying mechanism of UPR in IVDD.

Comparative efficacy and safety of glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists for the treatment of type 2 diabetes: A network meta-analysis.

Introduction: This study aimed to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of 4 weekly formulations of glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) on glycemic control, including glycemic control, by using a network meta-analysis (NMA).

Methods: PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library Central Register of Controlled Trials were searched from inception until June 10, 2022. Randomized clinical trials (RCTs) enrolling participants with diabetes mellitus type 2 and a follow-up of at least 12 weeks were included, for which 4 eligible GLP-1RAs Exenatide, Dulaglutide, Semaglutide, Loxenatide were compared with either each other or placebo.

Insights into the Adaptation to High Altitudes from Transcriptome Profiling: A Case Study of an Endangered Species, .

is an endangered alpine herb that is distributed along an altitudinal gradient. The unique traits and important phylogenetic position make an ideal model for exploring how endangered plants react to altitude variation. In this study, we sampled nine individuals from three representative locations and adopted RNA-seq technology to sequence 18 tissues, aiming to uncover how responded to different altitudes at the gene expression level.

Sesn2 Serves as a Regulator between Mitochondrial Unfolded Protein Response and Mitophagy in Intervertebral Disc Degeneration.

Mitochondrial unfold protein response (UPR) can induce mitophagy to protect cell from unfold protein. However, how UPR induces mitophagy to protect cell is not yet clear. Herein, Sesn2 was considered to be a key molecule that communicated UPR and mitophagy in the intervertebral disc.

Research on the cultivation of sustainable development ability of higher vocational students by creative thinking teaching method.

Education for sustainable development (ESD) is an important guideline for United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Students' creative thinking can be applied to various disciplines, promoting sustainable learning. Most of Taiwan's beauty and hairdressing technical education teachers mainly teach students to imitate, and students' works lack creativity and thinking.

[Characteristics of Soil Organic Carbon Components and Their Correlation with Other Soil Physical and Chemical Factors in Cotton Fields with Different Continuous Cropping Years in the Oasis on the Northern Edge of Tarim Basin].

The study of soil organic carbon components in continuous cropping cotton fields in oases is helpful to reveal the change characteristics of the soil organic carbon stability mechanism in arid areas under the effects of man-land relationships. In this study, the contents of soil organic carbon, easily oxidized organic carbon, dissolved organic carbon, and microbial biomass carbon in cotton fields with different continuous cropping years (2 a, 5 a, 12 a, 20 a, and 35 a) were collected and analyzed by using space instead of the time series method. Through redundancy analysis, the relationship between soil organic carbon components and other soil physical and chemical factors was discussed.

Research on Relevant Dimensions of Tourism Experience of Intangible Cultural Heritage Lantern Festival: Integrating Generic Learning Outcomes With the Technology Acceptance Model.

Visitors play an important role in the promotion and sustainable development of intangible cultural heritage (ICH). In recent years, the involvement of digital technology in traditional lantern design and shows has contributed to the protection, inheritance, and promotion of ICH, there remains less research on using augmented reality (AR) with ICH tourism.

Artificial Dermal Scaffold Loaded with Platelet-Rich Plasma Promotes Wound Healing in Pigs by Favoring Angiogenesis.

BACKGROUND The development of artificial dermis provides a new therapeutic method for full-thickness skin defects. However, the slow regeneration of blood vessels in the wound site still cannot be solved perfectly. In our study, we combined platelet-rich plasma (PRP) with Lando® artificial dermal scaffold to promote vascular regeneration and wound healing in pigs.

A Novel Mechanism for SIRT1 Activators That Does Not Rely on the Chemical Moiety Immediately C-Terminal to the Acetyl-Lysine of the Substrate.

SIRT1, an NAD-dependent deacetylase, catalyzes the deacetylation of proteins coupled with the breakdown of NAD into nicotinamide and 2'-O-acetyl-ADP-ribose (OAADPr). Selective SIRT1 activators have potential clinical applications in atherosclerosis, acute renal injury, and Alzheimer's disease. Here, we found that the activity of the potent SIRT1 activator CWR is independent of the acetylated substrate.

The role of AGEs in pathogenesis of cartilage destruction in osteoarthritis.

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative disease resulting from progressive joint destruction caused by many factors. Its pathogenesis is complex and has not been elucidated to date. Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) are a series of irreversible and stable macromolecular complexes formed by reducing sugar with protein, lipid, and nucleic acid through a non-enzymatic glycosylation reaction (Maillard reaction).

ALYREF associated with immune infiltration is a prognostic biomarker in hepatocellular carcinoma.
