BackgroundIn 2009, severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus (SFTSV) was identified as a novel member of the genus phlebovirus in Bunyaviridae family China. The detailed clinical features cases SFTSV infection have not been well described, and risk factors for severity among patients fatality remain to be determined. Methodology/Principal FindingsClinical laboratory 115 hospitalized during period from June 2010 December 2011 Northeast China were retrospectively reviewed. We assessed...

Defective macroautophagy/autophagy and mitochondrial dysfunction are known to stimulate senescence. The regulator PPARGC1A (peroxisome proliferator activated receptor gamma, coactivator 1 alpha) regulates biogenesis, reducing senescence of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs); however, it is unknown whether autophagy mediates PPARGC1A-protective effects on Using

Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus (SFTSV), which can cause hemorrhagic fever-like illness, is a newly discovered bunyavirus in China. The pathogenesis of SFTSV infection poorly understood. However, it has been suggested that immune mechanisms, including cytokines and chemokines, play an important role disease pathogenesis. In the present study, we investigated host cytokine chemokine profiles serum samples patients from Northeast China explored possible correlation between...

Abstract Background Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is increasingly recognized as a stroke risk factor, but its exact relationship with cerebrovascular not well-understood. We investigated the development of cerebral small vessel using in vivo and vitro models CKD. Methods CKD was produced aged C57BL/6J mice an adenine-induced tubulointerstitial nephritis model. analyzed brain histology Prussian blue staining to examine formation microhemorrhage (CMH), hemorrhagic component neuropathological...

After China lifted strict COVID-19 control measures, the winter of 2023 saw widespread outbreaks emerging infectious diseases, including various strains influenza, mycoplasma pneumonia, and COVID-19. These diseases have heightened risk repeated infections severe illness, making health communication strategies increasingly important for promotion. While most studies focus on message dissemination by authorities experts, role patient-generated content, shared individuals with firsthand...

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death among patients with chronic kidney (CKD). Rodent models are widely used to study uremic CVD pathophysiology. We compared cardiac function parameters in male and female animals from 2 established mouse CKD examined associations between gut-derived toxins echocardiogram findings. Male adult C57Bl/6J mice were randomly assigned control, adenine-induced 5/6 nephrectomy groups. Echocardiography was performed on all at age 17 weeks (5...

The solute carrier 30A ( SLC30A ) family of zinc exporters transports into the lumen intracellular organelles in order to prevent toxicity. We reported that formation tyrosine dimers is required for ZnT3 (zinc transporter 3) transport activity and targeting synaptic‐like microvesicles SLMVs PC12 cells / ZnT10 heterodimers. Here, we focused on determine role heterodimerization sorting ZnTs endolysosomal pathway. Using cell fractionation, immunoprecipitation immunofluorescence approaches,...

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative disease of articular cartilage that mainly characterized by chronic and mild inflammation the joints. Recently, many studies have reported crucial roles long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in OA as gene transcriptional regulatory factors, diagnostic biomarkers, or therapeutic targets. However, exact mechanisms lncRNAs regulation progression remain unclear. In present study, lncRNA WDR11 divergent transcript (lncRNA WDR11-AS1) was shown to be downregulated...

Abstract Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of arthritis involving major structural changes peripheral joints and local or systemic inflammation in lack therapeutic approaches because complexity underlying molecular basis. Our previous work showed that HS6ST2, an enzyme involved transfer sulfate, downregulated cartilage tissues OA patients compared with normal donors, but little known about its regulatory mechanism. In this study, we demonstrated expression HS6ST2 was lower...

Extensive efforts have been dedicated to enhancing the expression of tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) in cancer cells for development effective treatments. However, highly safe and efficient delivery TRAIL gene remains a significant challenge, especially using cationic polymers. Here, series branched-linear poly(β-amino ester)s (H-LPAEs) are developed through unique oligomer branching strategy. H-LPAEs exhibit more uniform distribution linear segments units,...
