The systemic administration of low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) as the standard initial treatment for venous thromboembolism is intended to prevent thrombus growth during the acute phase and prevent thrombus recurrence during the chronic phase. However, precisely controlling the specificity and localization of LMWH presents significant challenges, which has necessitated research into targeted delivery methods. Furthermore, due to different thrombosis mechanisms, tailored pharmacologic interventions are needed, particularly for arterial and venous thrombosis.

Negative-stranded segmented RNA viruses (NSVs) employ a cap-snatching mechanism for transcription, which makes cap-dependent endonuclease (CEN) an attractive target for drug development. Pathogenic arenaviruses pose a serious threat to humans, yet no approved treatments exist, underscoring the importance of discovering novel compounds targeting arenaviral CENs. Therefore, this study aimed to identify novel CEN inhibitors for arenaviruses and investigate their antiviral mechanisms.

The remarkable plasticity of hepatocytes underlies diverse roles in distinct patterns of liver injury. Specifically, hepatocyte-derived progenitor cells play dominant roles in driving the regenerative response during chronic liver injury. However, the potential for hepatocytes to transdifferentiate into progenitor-like cells following partial hepatectomy (PHx) remains debated.

Filoviruses, including Ebola and Marburg viruses, present significant global health challenges due to their high mortality rates. Despite the availability of several Ebola virus vaccines, none provide cross-protection against multiple filovirus species. In this study, we developed recombinant live attenuated measles virus-based vaccine candidates designed to express Ebola or Marburg virus glycoproteins and generate virus-like particles for pan-filovirus immunization.

Metastasis contributes to around 90% of cancer mortality, but effective strategies to disrupt metastatic cascades remain elusive. Hypoxia-driven epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) promotes cancer cell spread, yet the post-translational mechanisms governing cytoskeletal reprogramming here remain incompletely defined. This study reports a hypoxia-inducible post-translational modification cascade: under hypoxia, protein arginine methyltransferase 1 (PRMT1) is lactylated at evolutionarily conserved residues K134/K145, enhancing its methyltransferase activity to catalyze the asymmetric dimethylation (aDMA) of vimentin at R64.

The aim of this study was to evaluate whether blastocysts that do not re-expand 2–4 h after thawing were of value for utilization and to analyze the relevant factors affecting clinical pregnancy in completely shrunken blastocyst transfer (CSBT) cycles. The retrospective cohort study included 104 single embryo transfer cycles with CSBT and 2172 cycles with re-expanded blastocyst transfer (REBT). Confounders between groups were adjusted using propensity scoring matching.

Organophosphate pesticides, fungicides, and neonicotinoid insecticides are frequently employed in the cultivation and production of leafy vegetables. The conventional detection methods for these pesticides rely on chromatographic techniques, which are characterized by good precision and sensitivity. Nevertheless, these methods suffer from drawbacks such as complex sample pretreatment, prolonged detection times, and high costs, hindering the realization of on-site detection.

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) remains a significant clinical challenge due to delayed diagnosis and multidrug resistance, necessitating innovative strategies to enhance early detection and therapeutic efficacy. This review evaluates the role of lipid-based nanoparticles (LNPs), including liposomes, micelles, nanoemulsions, solid lipid nanoparticles, and nanostructured lipid carriers, as advanced drug delivery systems in providing innovative solutions for RCC diagnosis and treatment. These LNPs exhibit unique advantages of great biocompatibility, biodegradability, extended circulation, and tumor-targeting capabilities, which enable precise drug delivery, controlled release, and circumvention of drug resistance mechanisms.

A series of 6:2 fluorotelomer ethoxylates (FTEOs) has been recently detected in human serum. Whether it has the potential to disrupt lipid metabolism in human populations remains largely unexplored. This study quantified serum concentrations of 6:2 FTEOs in 237 healthy Chinese adults, examined the gender- and age-specific differences in serum levels of 6:2 FTEOs, and investigated the associations between serum levels of 6:2 FTEOs and lipid profiles for the first time.

Autoimmune diseases, such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), systemic vasculitis, spondyloarthritis (SpA), including ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA), are characterized by chronic immune activation and systemic inflammation. The systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), computed as platelet count × neutrophil count/lymphocyte count, is a promising biomarker that reflects both inflammatory burden and immune dysregulation. In RA, elevation of SII is correlated with disease activity score, response to TNF-α inhibitors, and reduced serum Klotho levels.

Synergy mechanism of nanoclusters/single atoms as coexisting electron-rich centers for sustainable Fenton-like catalysis without oxidant addition remains unclear. In this study, a composite catalyst consisting of FeP nanoclusters coexisting with Fe single atoms (FeP/FeNP/C) was synthesized and utilized in two catalytic systems: one with zero-peroxymonosulfate (PMS) addition and the other with low-PMS addition. Results indicated that FeP/FeNP/C catalyst with electron-deficient region could adsorb pollutants via π-π bond and extract electrons from pollutants to the atomic FeNP/C as electron acceptor, and this self-motivated process in PMS-free system could be modulated by the FeP nanoclusters via dynamic synergistic effects.

This study reports a strategy for constructing highly efficient single-atom photocatalysts through the formation of Ni-N chemical bonds. By anchoring Ni single atoms on nitrogen-doped ZnInS (N-ZIS), we created a localized charge region that enables directed interfacial charge transfer. The newly formed Ni-N bond plays dual roles of significantly enhancing charge carrier separation and prolonging their lifetime, and serving as an efficient electron transfer pathway from N trap states to Ni active sites.

A core philosophy of occupational therapy is adopting a holistic approach, considering individuals' cultural and societal values. While occupational therapy is rooted in modern Western cultures, which contrasts with traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) health beliefs, TCM conceptualizes health as multidimensional-a notion akin to occupational therapy's philosophy. This article attempts to explore the relationships between TCM health culture and occupational therapy perspectives by integrating culturally relevant activities and traditional Chinese Wellness practices into clinical occupational therapy.
