Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) causes serious disability and productivity loss, there is an urgent need for appropriate biomarkers diagnosis, treatment assessment, prognosis evaluation. To identify serum markers of RA, we performed mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics, obtained 24 important in normal RA patient samples using a random forest machine learning model 11 protein–protein interaction (PPI) network topological analysis methods. Markers were reanalyzed additional proteomics datasets,...

Yishen Tongbi decoction (YSTB) which is an herbal formula, has been used for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) more than ten years with a better curative effect. Methotrexate (MTX) effective anchoring agent to treat arthritis. There were, however, no head-to-head comparative randomized controlled trials comparing traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) MTX, Therefore, we performed this double-blind, double-model, trial efficacy and safety YSTB MTX in active RA 24 weeks. Patients who met...

Transforming growth factor-ß (TGF-ß) signaling plays an important role in regulating crucial biological processes such as cell proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis, and extracellular matrix remodeling. Many of these are also integral part amelogenesis. In order to delineate a precise TGF-ß during amelogenesis, we developed transgenic mouse line that harbors bovine amelogenin promoter-driven Cre recombinase, bred this with receptor II floxed mice generate ameloblast-specific conditional...

Peripheral T cell lymphopenia is a clinical phenomenon in some patients with dermatomyositis (DM). Patients are more susceptible to life-threatening infections. However, the pathogenesis of remains unclear. In this study, we aimed determine retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I) expression peripheral lymphocytes and explore correlation between RIG-I DM. The mRNA protein levels were determined 26 treatment-naive DM by q-PCR Western blot. apoptosis was detected flow cytometry. associations...

Abstract BACKGROUND Citrus pulp (CP) is rich in pectin, and studies have shown that pectin possesses antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory, gut microbiota‐regulating properties. However, the application of CP aquafeed limited. In this study, effect dietary inclusion on intestinal health largemouth bass ( Micropterus salmoides ) was investigated. Juveniles similar size (6.95 ± 0.07 g) were fed isonitrogenous isoenergetic diets containing different levels (0%, 3%, 6%, 9%, 12%, or 15%) for 58 days....
