-methyladenosine (mA), one of the most prevalent mRNA modifications, plays crucial roles during animal and plant development and in various physiological and pathological processes. Previous studies have characterized mA methyltransferase complexes, demethylases, and mA-binding proteins, but as a relatively new epitranscriptomic pathway, it is likely that new mA components remain to be discovered. To explore the effects of mA modification on tissues and organs, the mA reader was overexpressed in eye imaginal discs.

The China mortality prediction model in trauma, based on the International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification lexicon (CMPMIT-ICD-10), is a novel model for predicting outcomes in patients who experienced trauma. This model has not yet been validated using data acquired from patients at other trauma centers in China. This retrospective study used data retrieved from the Peking University People's Hospital discharge database and included all patients admitted for trauma between 2012 and 2022 for model validation.

Multiple myeloma (MM) is an intractable hematological malignancy caused by abnormalities in plasma cells. Combination therapy using antibodies and natural killer (NK) effectors, which are innate immune cells with safe and potent antitumor activity, is a promising approach for cancer immunotherapy and can enhance antitumor effects. Elotuzumab (Elo) is an immune-stimulatory antibody that targets the signaling lymphocytic activation molecule family 7 (SLAMF7) expressed on the surface of MM and NK cells.

Article Synopsis
  • * The overall admission rate for traumatic fractures was 1.437‰, with a significant increase among older adults and a higher prevalence in males; falls and road traffic injuries were identified as the primary causes.
  • * In-hospital mortality was 1.209‰, particularly high for road traffic injuries, with a median hospital stay of 10 days and average costs around ¥20,900 ($3,056), indicating the need for improved public health measures and transportation safety.

Article Synopsis
  • Researchers studied the connection between anti-epileptic drugs and genes linked to epilepsy, finding that drug targets significantly overlap with epilepsy risk genes.
  • They discovered a specific protein-protein interaction (PPI) network consisting of 55 epilepsy risk genes and 94 drug target genes, indicating strong interactions.
  • The study also revealed that the identified genes are enriched in specific brain cell types, supporting the idea that the interactions between risk genes and drug targets are biologically significant.

We previously prepared nerve growth factor poly-lactide co-glycolid sustained-release microspheres to treat rat sciatic nerve injury using the small gap sleeve technique. Multiple growth factors play a synergistic role in promoting the repair of peripheral nerve injury; as a result, in this study, we added basic fibroblast growth factors to the microspheres to further promote nerve regeneration. First, in an in vitro biomimetic microenvironment, we developed and used a drug screening biomimetic microfluidic chip to screen the optimal combination of nerve growth factor/basic fibroblast growth factor to promote the regeneration of Schwann cells.

To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Chinese patent medicines in the treatment of insomnia by frequency network Meta-analysis. Randomized controlled trials of Chinese patent medicines for insomnia were retrieved from CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, SinoMed, PubMed, EMbase and Cochrane Library databases from the time of database establishment to October 2020. The quality of the included RCTs was evaluated according to the Cochrane bias risk standard, and the data was analyzed by RevMan 5.

Aims: Peripheral nerve injury is a significant clinical problem with a substantial impact on quality of life, for which no optimal treatment has been found. This study aimed to analyze the effect and mechanism of Wnt5a-loaded fibrin hydrogel on a 10-mm rat sciatic nerve defect.

Methods: The Wnt5a-loaded fibrin hydrogel was synthesized by mixing a Wnt5a solution with thrombin and fibrinogen solutions.

  • The study focused on the role of PRAME (preferentially expressed antigen in melanoma) in bone marrow cells from 116 patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS).
  • High levels of PRAME expression were linked to worse survival rates in MDS patients, particularly those with low bone marrow blast percentages and lower IPSS-R risk categories.
  • The findings indicate that PRAME could serve as a potential prognostic factor for assessing disease progression and outcomes in MDS patients.

  • NSSPE (Nanocrystals self-stabilized Pickering emulsion) uses poorly soluble drug nanocrystals as stabilizers and has been shown to enhance the oral absorption of puerarin when combined with Ligusticum chuanxiong oil.
  • * The study investigated how NSSPE improves puerarin's absorption through in vitro dissolution tests and its interaction with Caco-2 cells, revealing that NSSPE significantly boosts drug uptake compared to traditional emulsions.
  • * Results indicate that both passive/active transport and lipid raft/caveolin-mediated endocytosis are involved in the absorption process, with the unique structure of NSSPE enhancing overall drug solubility and transport across cell membranes.

Background: Models to predict mortality in trauma play an important role in outcome prediction and severity adjustment, which informs trauma quality assessment and research. Hospitals in China typically use the International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-10-CM) to describe injury. However, there is no suitable prediction model for China.

Article Synopsis
  • The intestinal flora normally maintain a balanced relationship with the body, but damage to the intestinal barrier can lead to bacterial translocation (BT), causing multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS).
  • Inflammatory responses arise from infections and endotoxins when the intestinal flora and contents leak into the bloodstream, with the intestine being both the origin and target of MODS.
  • Maintaining the integrity of the intestinal mucosal barrier is crucial to prevent BT; effective treatments include early diagnosis, restoring blood flow, enteral nutrition, and selective digestive decontamination.

  • The study analyzes genomics, proteomics, and phosphoproteomics of 480 clinical samples from 146 colorectal cancer patients, highlighting differences between metastatic CRC (mCRC) and non-metastatic cases.
  • It identifies three distinct CRC subtypes, with proteomic and phosphoproteomic profiles able to predict clinical outcomes and differentiate metastatic tumors from primary ones.
  • The findings suggest that while genetic profiles are similar between primary and metastatic tissues, there is significant proteomic diversity, and personalized drug responses can be anticipated based on kinase network analyses, offering insights for clinical applications.

Background: Ischemic postconditioning (IPostC) is an endogenous protective mechanism to reduce ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. However, whether IPostC protects aged cardiomyocytes against I/R injury is not fully understood. Considering the protective function of microRNA 30a (miR-30a) against ischemia-induced injury in H9C2 cells, its role in the protective effects of IPostC on I/R injury of aged cardiomyocytes was investigated further.
