Article Abstract
WDR45 gene-associated neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation (NBIA), referred to as beta-propeller protein-associated neurodegeneration (BPAN), is a rare disorder that presents with a very nonspecific clinical phenotype in children constituting global developmental delay. This case report illustrates the power of a combination of trio exome sequencing, in silico splicing analysis, and mRNA analysis to provide sufficient evidence for pathogenicity of a relatively intronic variant in WDR45, and in so doing, find a genetic diagnosis for a 6-year-old patient with developmental delay and seizures, a diagnosis which may otherwise have only been found once the characteristic MRI patterns of the disease became more obvious in young adulthood.

Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) is a prevalent intestinal pathogen that significantly impacts both human and animal health. G83, isolated from giant panda feces, has demonstrated notable probiotic properties. In this study, C57BL/6 J mice were randomly divided into Control, ETEC, and G83 groups.

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic significance of microvessel density (MVD), assessed by CD34 immunohistochemistry (IHC), and its correlation with radiological features and bevacizumab (BEV) treatment efficacy in newly diagnosed glioblastoma.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 41 patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma. MVD was quantified using CD34 IHC, and patients were stratified into low and high MVD groups according to the cutoff value determined by receiver operating characteristic curve analysis (sensitivity, 76.
Burn Injury Triggers Distinct Transcriptomic Profiles in Adipose Tissue of Adult and Aged Mice.

Severe burns are a major global health concern, and are associated with long-term physical and psychological impairments, multi-organ dysfunction, and substantial morbidity and mortality. While burn injuries in adults trigger systemic immuno-metabolic alterations-characterized by white adipose tissue browning, elevated resting energy expenditure, widespread catabolism, and inflammation-these adaptive responses are considerably impaired in older adults, with molecular mechanisms behind these differences remaining largely unclear. As a key regulator of systemic metabolism, investigating the pathological role of adipose tissue (AT) postburn may reveal novel targets that could potentially improve patient outcomes.

The 5' untranslated region (5'UTR) plays a crucial regulatory role in messenger RNA (mRNA), with modified 5'UTRs extensively utilized in vaccine production, gene therapy, etc. Nevertheless, manually optimizing 5'UTRs may encounter difficulties in balancing the effects of various cis-elements. Consequently, multiple 5'UTR libraries have been created, and machine learning models have been employed to analyze and predict translation efficiency (TE) and protein expression, providing insights into critical regulatory features.

Our study aimed to investigate how this regulatory network influences ISR occurrence and development by modulating inflammation and immunity.
Methods: By utilizing data extracted from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database, we constructed the lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA regulatory network specific to ISR.
