Mononuclear phagocytes are a population of multi-phenotypic cells and have dual roles in brain destruction/reconstruction. The phenotype-specific microglia/macrophages traumatic injury (TBI) are, however, poorly characterized. In the present study, TBI was induced mice by controlled cortical impact (CCI) animals were killed at 1 to 14 days post injury. Real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT–PCR) immunofluorescence staining for M1 M2 markers performed characterize phenotypic changes both...

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common form of chronic with manifestation over‐accumulation fat in liver. Increasing evidences indicate that NAFLD may be part caused by malfunction very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) secretion. Hepatocyte nuclear factor 4α (HNF4α), a receptor protein, plays an important role sustain hepatic lipid homeostasis via transcriptional regulation genes involved secretion VLDL, such as apolipoprotein B (ApoB). However, exact functional change...

Abstract Since late 2012, coxsackievirus A6 (CVA6) has gradually become the predominant pathogen responsible for hand-foot-mouth disease (HFMD) in several provinces of China. A total 626 patients diagnosed with HFMD Shanghai, China from January 2012 to September 2013 were enrolled this study. Of these, 292 CVA6 infected cases subjected clinical analyses. Whole-genome sequencing, recombination and phylogenetic analyses also performed. recombinant monophyletic lineage was found during an...
