Daylily is a functional food with high nutritional value in China. Datong (DT) in Shanxi Province is one of the four main production areas of daylily. Therefore, Linfen (LF), Lvliang (LL), and Yangquan (YQ) in Shanxi Province have also introduced daylily from DT. However, geographical and climatic conditions and producing patterns cause variations in the daylily quality. In the present study, we found that the nutrient composition of daylilies from different producing areas of Shanxi Province varied. The key environmental factors affecting the nutrition of daylily in different regions were altitude and temperature. The widely targeted metabolomics results showed that 1642 metabolites were found in daylily. The differential metabolites between DT and YQ, LL and LF were 557, 667, and 359, respectively. Notably, 9 metabolic pathways and 59 metabolite markers were associated with daylily from different areas. This study provides a theoretical basis for the quality maintenance and health efficacy research of daylily.

The global surge in the population of people 60 years and older, including that in China, challenges healthcare systems with rising age-related diseases. To address this demographic change, the Aging Biomarker Consortium (ABC) has launched the X-Age Project to develop a comprehensive aging evaluation system tailored to the Chinese population. Our goal is to identify robust biomarkers and construct composite aging clocks that capture biological age, defined as an individual's physiological and molecular state, across diverse Chinese cohorts.

Aurora kinase A (AURKA) is a serine/threonine kinase that plays a critical role in cell cycle regulation, particularly during mitosis. Recent studies have identified AURKA as an oncogene overexpressed in various cancers, including gastric cancer (GC). This review summarizes the molecular mechanisms by which AURKA contributes to GC pathogenesis, including its roles in cell proliferation, apoptosis inhibition, epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), and cancer stemness.

Background: Drug-induced hypogonadism is an underrecognized but significant adverse effect of various medications, contributing to male sexual dysfunction and infertility. Despite its clinical significance, comprehensive studies systematically identifying high-risk drugs remain limited.
Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the potential drugs associated with hypogonadism from FDA Adverse Event Reporting System.

Modulating the electronic structure of catalysts to maximize their power holds the key to address the challenges faced by zinc-iodine batteries (ZIBs), including the shuttle effect and slow redox kinetics at the iodine cathode. Herein, oxygen vacancies is innovatively introduced into CoO lattice to create high-spin-state Co active sites in nonstoichiometric CoO nanocrystals supported by carbon nanofibers (H-CoO/CNFs). This simple strategy intensifies crystal field splitting of Co 3d orbitals, optimizing the spin-orbital coupling between Co 3d orbitals and iodine species.

This study aims to assess whether endometriosis causally increases the risk of IBD through Mendelian randomisation (MR) analysis and to elucidate potential mechanisms using in vitro experiments. A two-sample Mendelian randomisation (MR) analysis was conducted using genome-wide association study datasets for endometriosis and IBD, including ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. Causal inference was assessed using inverse variance weighting, MR-Egger, and weighted median methods, with MR-PRESSO used to detect horizontal pleiotropy.
