Hearing impairment due to the loss of sensory hair cells is permanent in humans. Considerable interest targets cell differentiation factor Atoh1 as a potential tool with which promote regeneration. We generated novel mouse model direct expression spatially and temporally specific manner postnatal mammalian cochlea determine competency various types cochlear epithelial for differentiation. can generate young animals morphological, molecular, physiological properties reminiscent cells. This...
Dysfunction of gap junctions (GJs) caused by mutations in connexin26 (Cx26) and Cx30 accounts for nearly half all cases hereditary nonsyndromic deafness cases. Although it is widely held that GJs connecting supporting cells the organ Corti mainly provide ionic pathways rapid removal K + around base hair cells, function cochlea remains unknown. Here we show were not assembled until 3 days after birth mice then gradually matured to connect before onset hearing. In organotypic cochlear cultures...
Connexin26 (Cx26) and connexin30 (Cx30) are two major protein subunits that co-assemble to form gap junctions (GJs) in the cochlea. Mutations either one of them cause non-syndromic prelingual deafness humans. Because mechanisms cochlear pathogenesis caused by Cx mutations unclear, we investigated effects Cx30 null mutation on GJ-mediated ionic metabolic coupling cochlea mice. A novel flattened preparation was used directly assess intercellular sensory epithelium Double-electrode patch clamp...
Bacterial resistance to the antibiotics has become an important concern for public health. This study was aimed investigate characteristics and distribution of florfenicol-related genes in bacteria isolated from 4 farms. A total 106 florfenicol-resistant Gram-negative bacilli were examined positive isolates further characterized. Antimicrobial sensitivity results showed that most them (100, 94.33%) belonged multidrug Enterobacteriaceae. About 91.51% strains carried floR gene, 4.72% cfr gene....
To study the detailed nature of genomic microevolution during mixed infection with multiple Helicobacter pylori strains in an individual.We sampled 18 isolates from a single biopsy patient chronic gastritis and nephritis. Whole-genome sequencing was applied to these isolates, statistical genetic tools were used investigate their evolutionary history.The genomes fall into two clades, reflecting colonisation stomach by distinct strains, lineages have accumulated diversity estimated 2.8 4.2...
Connexins (Cxs) are a family of protein subunits constituting gap junctions, which facilitate exchanges molecules important for cellular signaling and metabolic activities intercellularly or between different regions the cytoplasm in same cells. Mutations Cxs major cause nonsyndromic childhood deafness, mostly found Cx26 Cx30 expressed cochlear supporting cells fibrocytes. So far, little is known about functional contribution other types Here, we show that Cx29 was highly cochlea. The...
Neurotrophins (NTs) play essential roles in the development and survival of neurons PNS CNS. In cochlea, NTs [e.g., NT-3, brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF)] are required for spiral ganglion (SGNs). Preservation SGNs cochlea patients suffering sensorineural deafness caused by loss hair cells is needed optimal performance cochlear implant. Directly applying exogenous BDNF into prevents secondary degeneration when lost. However, a common translational barrier <i>in vivo</i> applications...
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has emerged as a potent novel therapeutic modality that induces cell death through light-induced activation of photosensitizer. But some photosensitizers have characteristics poor water-solubility and non-specific tissue distribution. These become main obstacles PDT. In this paper, we synthesized targeting drug delivery system (TDDS) to improve the photosensitizer enhance ability targeted TFR positive tumor cells. TDDS is transferrin-modified...
Shiraia bambusicola is a species of the monotypic genus in phylum Ascomycota. In China, it known for its pharmacological properties that are used to treat rheumatic arthritis, sciatica, pertussis, tracheitis and so forth. Its major medicinal active metabolite hypocrellin A, which exhibits excellent antiviral antitumor properties. However, genes involved A anabolic pathways were still unknown due lack genomic information this species. To investigate putative biosynthesis determine pathway, we...
Ion channels in the degenerin-epithelial sodium channel (DEG-ENaC) family perform diverse functions, including mechanosensation. Here we explored role of vertebrate DEG-ENaC protein, acid-sensing ion 2 (ASIC2), auditory transduction. Contributions ASIC2 to hearing were examined by comparing threshold and noise sensitivity wild-type null mice. mice showed no significant loss, indicating that was not directly involved mechanotransduction mammalian cochlea. However, found (1) present spiral...
The release of HA from PLGA/HA NPs was carried by dissolving in artificial gastric (pH 1.5), intestinal 6.8) and blood 7.4) media.
PurposePathogenic variants in SETD1B have been associated with a syndromic neurodevelopmental disorder including intellectual disability, language delay, and seizures. To date, clinical features described for 11 patients (likely) pathogenic sequence variants. This study aims to further delineate the spectrum of SETD1B-related syndrome based on characterizing an expanded patient cohort.MethodsWe perform in-depth characterization cohort 36 unpublished individuals variants, describing their...
Background: Diabetic retinopathy (DR) and diabetic cataract (DC) are two closely related microvascular complications of diabetes. Panax notoginseng, a plant from the Araliaceae family genus Panax, is widely used in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) due to its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, blood circulation-promoting properties. Recent studies suggest that drugs possessing characteristics may have unexpected benefits treating complications. This study employs network pharmacology...
Abstract Background With the wide use of florfenicol to prevent and treat bacterial infection domestic animals, emergence resistance bacteria is increasingly serious. It very important elucidate molecular mechanism bacteria’s florfenicol. Methods The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) levels were determined by agar dilution method, polymerase chain reaction was conducted analyze distribution genes in 39 CoNS strains isolated from poultry livestock animals seafood. whole genome sequence...
The presence and emergence of multiple species/subspecies ECC have led to diversity complications at the taxonomic level, which impedes our further understanding epidemiology clinical significance ECC. Accurate identification species is extremely important.
Abstract Recent studies have suggested that dogs were domesticated during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) in Siberia, which contrasts with previous proposed domestication centers (e.g. Europe, Middle East, and East Asia). Ancient DNA provides a powerful resource for study of mammalian evolution has been widely used to understand genetic history domestic animals. To maternal Asian dogs, we made complete mitogenome dataset 120 canids from 38 archaeological sites, including 102 newly sequenced...
