Genomic insights into antibiotic-resistant non-typhoidal Salmonella isolates from outpatients in Minhang District in Shanghai.

Background: Salmonella enterica (S. enterica) causes tens of thousands of cases of diarrheal disease worldwide each year. However, our understanding of the genome and transmission dynamics of S.

A global atlas and drivers of antimicrobial resistance in Salmonella during 1900-2023.

Although previous studies using phenotypic or/and genomic approaches monitoring have revealed the spatiotemporal distribution of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in Salmonella in local areas, their geographical patterns and driving factors remain largely unknown at a global scale. Here, we performed an analysis of publicly available data of 208,233 Salmonella genomes in 148 countries/regions between 1900 and 2023 and explored driving indicators of AMR. Overall, we found that the geographic distribution of AMR varied depending on the location, source, and serovar.

The multi-kingdom microbiome catalog of the chicken gastrointestinal tract.

Chicken is an important food animal worldwide and plays an important role in human life by providing meat and eggs. Despite recent significant advances in gut microbiome studies, a comprehensive study of chicken gut bacterial, archaeal, and viral genomes remains unavailable. In this study, we constructed a chicken multi-kingdom microbiome catalog (CMKMC), including 18,201 bacterial, 225 archaeal, and 33,411 viral genomes, and annotated over 6,076,006 protein-coding genes by integrating 135 chicken gut metagenomes and publicly available metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) from ten countries.

Deciphering antibiotic resistance genes and plasmids in pathogenic bacteria from 166 hospital effluents in Shanghai, China.

Although previous studies using phenotypic or metagenomic approaches have revealed the patterns of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in hospital effluents in local regions, limited information is available regarding the antibiotic resistome and plasmidome in human pathogenic bacteria in hospital effluents of megacity in China. To address this knowledge gap, we analyzed effluent samples from 166 hospitals across 13 geographical districts in Shanghai, China, using both cultivation-based approaches and metagenomics. A total of 357 strains were isolated from these samples, with the predominant species being Escherichia coli (n = 61), Aeromonas hydrophila (n = 57), Klebsiella pneumoniae (n = 48), and Aeromonas caviae (n = 42).

Automated Hematoma Detection and Outcome Prediction in Patients With Traumatic Brain Injury.

Purpose: To develop a tool for automated subtype classification and segmentation of intracranial hemorrhages (ICH) on CT scans of patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI). Furthermore, outcome prediction for patients can effectively facilitate patient management.

Methods: This study presents a cascade framework for two-stage segmentation and multi-label classification.

Cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) translationally controlled tumor protein interacts with CsRab11A and promotes activation of target of rapamycin in response to Podosphaera xanthii.

The target of rapamycin (TOR) kinase serves as a central regulator that integrates nutrient and energy signals to orchestrate cellular and organismal physiology in both animals and plants. Despite significant advancements having been made in understanding the molecular and cellular functions of plant TOR kinases, the upstream regulators that modulate TOR activity are not yet fully elucidated. In animals, the translationally controlled tumor protein (TCTP) is recognized as a key player in TOR signaling.

Global research evolution and frontier analysis of artificial intelligence in brain injury: A bibliometric analysis.

Research on artificial intelligence for brain injury is currently a prominent area of scientific research. A significant amount of related literature has been accumulated in this field. This study aims to identify hotspots and clarify research resources by conducting literature metrology visualization analysis, providing valuable ideas and references for related fields.

Target of rapamycin (TOR) plays a role in regulating ROS-induced chloroplast damage during cucumber (Cucumis sativus) leaf senescence.

In cucumber production, delaying leaf senescence is crucial for improving cucumber yield and quality. Target of rapamycin (TOR) is a highly conserved serine/threonine protein kinase in eukaryotes, which can integrate exogenous and endogenous signals (such as cell energy state levels) to stimulate cell growth, proliferation, and differentiation. However, no studies have yet examined the regulatory role of TOR signalling in cucumber leaf senescence.

Phosphoproteomics analysis of the effect of target of rapamycin kinase inhibition on Cucumis sativus in response to Podosphaera xanthii.

Target of rapamycin (TOR) kinase is a conserved sensor of cell growth in yeasts, plants, and mammals. Despite the extensive research on the TOR complex in various biological processes, large-scale phosphoproteomics analysis of TOR phosphorylation events upon environmental stress are scarce. Powdery mildew caused by Podosphaera xanthii poses a major threat to the quality and yield of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.

Pharmacological Mechanism of Sancao Yuyang Decoction in the Treatment of Oral Mucositis Based on Network Pharmacology and Experimental Validation.

Purpose: The network pharmacology analysis, molecular docking and experimental verification were performed to explore the pharmacological mechanisms of Sancao Yuyang Decoction (SCYYD) in the treatment of oral mucositis (OM).

Methods: Active ingredients in SCYYD and their potential targets, as well as OM-related targets were screened from public databases. The core targets and signaling pathways of SCYYD against OM were determined by protein-protein interaction (PPI) network, Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis.
