After partial hepatectomy (PH), regenerating liver accumulates unknown lipid species. Here, we analyzed lipids in murine liver and adipose tissues following PH by thin-layer chromatography (TLC), imaging mass spectrometry (IMS), and real-time RT-PCR. In liver, IMS revealed that a single TLC band comprised major 19 TG species. Similarly, IMS showed a single phospholipid TLC band to be major 13 species. In adipose tissues, PH induced changes to expression of genes regulating lipid metabolism. Finally, IMS of phosphatidylcholine species demonstrated distribution gradients in lobules that resembled hepatic zonation. IMS is thus a novel and power tool for analyzing lipid species with high resolution.

Department of Cardiology, The First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University, Suzhou, China.
Objectives: To explore the relationships between cardiac parameters and body composition indices, identifying predictors of subclinical cardiac systolic dysfunction.
Methods: Using anthropometric and serological parameters, echocardiography, and body composition analysis, this study evaluated metabolic profiles, cardiac remodeling patterns, and body composition characteristics in young adult obese patients, while quantifying the correlations between cardiac parameters and body composition indices. Subclinical left ventricular systolic dysfunction was defined as global longitudinal strain (GLS) < 18%.

Mass psychogenic illness (MPI), also known as mass sociogenic illness, is a functional neurologic symptom disorder affecting multiple people simultaneously. This study presents a pediatric MPI outbreak involving abrupt-onset tics in LeRoy, NY, during 2011-2012. The analysis provides diagnostic evidence and highlights challenges with diagnosing MPI.

Background: As one of the most destructive and invasive pests for various plants in China, Spodoptera frugiperda (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) poses an enormous threat to food security and results in serious economic losses for harvesting and consumption of agricultural vegetables. To this end, indoxacarb has shown great promise as an effective insecticide against Spodoptera frugiperda. It is metabolized by insect esterases or amidases into the N-decarbomethoxy metabolite (DCJW), which is a key metabolite responsible for the insecticidal activity of indoxacarb.

Integrating surface-enhanced fluorescence (SEF) and surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) into a single probe is a natural step forward for plasmon-enhanced spectroscopy (PES), as SEF enables enhanced fluorescent imaging for fast screening of targets, while SERS allows ultrasensitive trace molecular characterization with specificity. However, many challenges remain, e.g.
