Grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) is an important economic species in freshwater aquaculture and its industry has been confined due to variety degeneration and frequent diseases. Marker-assisted selection is a feasible method for selective breeding of new varieties. Transcriptome data have greatly facilitated high-throughput single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) marker discovery and phenotype association study. In this study, we gained a total of 25,981 and 5,775 high quality SNPs in two transcriptomes from individuals and cell lines, respectively. Comparative transcriptome analysis identified 413 and 832 grass carp reovirus (GCRV)-resistant-association SNPs as well as 1,381 and 1,606 GCRV-susceptible-association SNPs in individuals and cell lines, respectively. Integrated analysis indicated 22 genes with single SNP share common resistant/susceptible traits in two transcriptomes. Furthermore, we infected grass carp with GCRV, genotyping and association analyses were performed, and 9 in 22 SNPs were confirmed by PCR-RFLP. Meanwhile, mRNA expression profiles of 6 genes containing confirmed SNPs were examined by qRT-PCR. The results demonstrated that mRNA expressions were significant differences in resistant/susceptible individuals and cell lines. The present study develops an important strategy for high throughput screening of phenotype association genetic markers and the results will serve in grass carp breeding for GCRV resistance.

This research sought to examine the prevalence and severity of hyperostosis frontalis interna (HFI) in the Chicagoland anatomical body donor population. The study further aimed to elucidate potential demographic risk factors for HFI, including sex, age at death, and structural vulnerability index (SVI), as well as any common comorbidities, as gleaned from death certificates. HFI is an irregular bony overgrowth of the endocranial surface of the frontal bone.

The effect of non-functionalized polystyrene nanoparticles (PS-NPs) with diameters of 29, 44, and 72 nm on plasmid DNA integrity and the expression of genes involved in the architecture of chromatin was investigated in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). The cells were incubated with PS-NPs at concentrations ranging from 0.001 to 100 µg/mL for 24 hours.

Unlabelled: Leptomeningeal metastasis (LM) is a severe complication of solid malignancies, including lung adenocarcinoma, characterized by poor prognosis and diagnostic challenges. This study assesses whether curvilinear peri-brainstem hyperintense signals on MRI are a characteristic feature of LM in lung adenocarcinoma patients.
Methods: This retrospective study analyzed data from multiple centers, encompassing lung adenocarcinoma patients with peri-brainstem curvilinear hyperintense signals on MRI between January 2016 and March 2022.

Background: Blinatumomab and inotuzumab ozogamicin (InO) are B-cell targeted agents used in the frontline and relapsed/refractory treatment of B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (B-ALL). Blinatumomab, a bispecific T-cell engager that targets CD19 and CD3, and InO, an antibody-drug conjugate targeting CD22, have both shown efficacy. However, recent reports have noted lineage conversion as a complication when these agents are used individually or sequentially.

Background: The objective of this study was to compare the effects of daily consumption of white potatoes compared with white rice on cardiometabolic health in individuals with type-2 diabetes (T2D).
Objective: To determine the effects of white potato consumption compared to white rice (a commonly consumed refined grain) on indices of glycemic control and cardiovascular health in individuals with overweight or obesity and T2D.
Methods: In this randomized crossover study, comparative control trial, 24 adults with T2D [45-80 y, body mass index (kg/m) 25-40] consumed baked white potatoes (100 g) or calorie-matched white rice (75 g) daily for 12 wk, separated by a 2-wk washout, with assessments of glycemic control, lipids, inflammation, blood pressure, endothelial function, and body composition at baseline (only 1 baseline visit included as a covariate in statistical analyses), 6 wk, and 12 wk.
