We designed a multicenter study 35 participating China using mock communities homogenized fecal samples. A wide range practices...
Abstract. The rapid response to the COVID-19 pandemic led unprecedented decreases in economic activities, thereby reducing pollutant emissions. A random forest (RF) model was applied determine respective contributions of meteorology and anthropogenic emissions changes air quality. result suggested that strict lockdown measures significantly decreased primary components such as Cr (−67 %) Fe (−61 PM2.5 (p<0.01), whereas higher relative humidity (RH) NH3 level lower temperature (T)...
Despite its high mortality, specific and effective drugs for sepsis are lacking. Decoy receptor 3 (DcR3) is a potential biomarker the progression of inflammatory diseases. The recombinant human DcR3-Fc chimera protein (DcR3.Fc) suppresses responses in mice with sepsis, which critical improving survival. Fc region can exert detrimental effects on patient, endogenous peptides highly conducive to clinical application. However, mechanisms underlying DcR3 unknown. Herein, we aimed demonstrate...
