Article Abstract
A rapid and sensitive direct competitive fluorescence enzyme immunoassay (dc-FEIA) for ochratoxin A (OTA) based on a nanobody (Nb)-alkaline phosphatase (AP) fusion protein was developed. The VHH (variable domain of heavy chain antibody) gene of Nb28 was subcloned into the expression vector pecan45 containing the AP double-mutant gene. The Nb28-AP construct was transformed into Escherichia coli BL21(DE3)plysS, and soluble expression in bacteria was confirmed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and Western blot. Both the Nb properties and AP enzymatic activity were validated by colorimetric and fluorometric analysis. The 50% inhibitory concentration and the detection limit of the dc-FEIA were 0.13 and 0.04 ng/mL, respectively, with a linear range of 0.06-0.43 ng/mL. This assay was compared with LC-MS/MS, and the results indicated the reliability of Nb-AP fusion protein-based dc-FEIA for monitoring OTA contamination in cereal.

Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), a myeloproliferative neoplasm, is characterized by the fusion gene, which results in constitutive tyrosine kinase activity. While tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have significantly improved CML outcomes, resistance and the persistence of leukemic stem cells remain major clinical challenges. Curcumin, a natural polyphenol derived from , has demonstrated potential anticancer properties.

Guided bone regeneration (GBR) is a prominent focus in biomedical materials research, yet few studies address practical clinical needs. GBR membranes must fulfill the "PASS" principles to be effective in surgery, but existing membranes often fall short in balancing antibacterial activity, controlled degradation, osteoinductive potential, and mechanical support. In this study, we employed laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) to fabricate a porous WE43 magnesium alloy scaffold suitable for large alveolar bone defects.

Age-related cognitive decline is closely linked to white matter integrity, yet the molecular regulators of myelination during aging remain poorly defined. Protein phosphatase 1 regulatory subunit 3G (PPP1R3G) is implicated in cellular metabolism, but its role in brain aging is unknown. We assessed PPP1R3G expression in the corpus callosum of aging mice (1-18 months) and stratified aged mice into High/Low-PPP1R3G groups.

Metabolic rewiring in response to oncogenic signals plays a critical role in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) survival, tumor growth, and metastasis. These alterations make PDAC tumors dependent on anabolic metabolism for survival, highlighting a unique vulnerability that can be therapeutically exploited.
