Itaconate, a metabolite produced during inflammatory macrophage activation, has been extensively described to be involved in immunoregulation, oxidative stress, and lipid peroxidation. As form of iron hydroperoxide-dependent regulated cell death, ferroptosis plays critical role sepsis-induced acute lung injury (ALI). However, the relationship between itaconate remains unclear. This study aims explore regulatory on ALI. In vivo experiments, mice were injected with LPS (10 mg/kg) for 12 h...

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) first emerged in December 2019 Wuhan, China, and has since spread rapidly worldwide. As researchers seek to learn more about COVID-19, the disease it causes, this novel virus continues infect kill. Despite socioeconomic impacts of SARS-CoV-2 infections likelihood future outbreaks other pathogenic coronaviruses, options prevent or treat remain limited. In current clinical trials, potential treatments focusing on killing preventing...

ABSTRACT Intragastric Klebsiella pneumoniae infections of mice can cause liver abscesses, necrosis tissues, and bacteremia. Lithium chloride, a widely prescribed drug for bipolar mood disorder, has been reported to possess anti-inflammatory properties. Using an intragastric infection model, the effects LiCl on K. were examined. Providing with drinking water containing immediately after protected them from -induced death injuries, such as well increasing blood levels aspartate...

Abstract The purpose of this study was to compare the usefulness nucleic acid amplification (NAA) test against conventional tests under normal laboratory operational conditions. NAA performed on first sputum specimen all patients. Liquid media culture, solid and Ziehl–Neelsen stain for an acid‐fast bacilli (AFB) smear were three specimens. results calculated using gold standard either culture or clinical diagnosis. Of 593 patients tested, 151 (25.5%) diagnosed with pulmonary tuberculosis....

Background: An outbreak of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pneumonia caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) started in December 2019, Wuhan, China. Ground Glass Opacity (GGO) is most common image CT findings COVID-19 pneumonia. GGO also main imaging features early-stage lung cancer. We aimed to characterize and compare images featured with between patients cancer, facilitate early identification Methods: Patients (confirmed RT-PCR) GGO-manifested who...

Background: In late December 2019, a pneumonia caused by SARS-CoV-2 was first discovered in Wuhan, and it spread worldwide. Until now, no specific medicine has been used for the treatment of coronavirus infections. The aim this study is to establish new predictive model based on clinical characteristics COVID-19 predict independent risk factors that can be screen potential critical patients. Methods: First, 317 confirmed cases were retrospectively chosen study. Clinical collected analyzed. A...

Abstract COPD is one of the high-risk factors for lung cancer, but underlying mechanism still unclear. Here, we performed single-cell RNA sequencing analysis on three tissues, and COPD-based cancer tissue (LCCOPD), enrolled scRNA-seq data normal LCCOPD tissues from public database. We found that most immune cell types were significantly enriched in groups, showed a differential enrichment T-regs macrophage subtypes comparison with COPD. FOXP3 mRNA expression was increased LCOPD-related...
