To investigate the biomechanical efficacy of reverse suture anchor (RSA) technique compared with transtibial pull-out (TP) and (SA) techniques using in vitro porcine knee models PMMRTs. 32 fresh frozen tibiae medial meniscus intact were randomly assigned to four groups (eight specimens each). A standardized posterior root tear (PMMRT) was established 24 specimens. SA, TP, RSA used repair PMMRTs 8 respectively, while native roots (PMMRs) left as a control eight Pressure sensitivity, stress,...

Abstract Background In vertebrates, most protein-coding genes have a peak of GC-content near their 5′ transcriptional start site (TSS). This feature promotes both the efficient nuclear export and translation mRNAs. Despite importance for RNA metabolism, its general features, origin, maintenance remain mysterious. We investigate evolutionary forces shaping at (TSS) through comparative genomic analysis nucleotide substitution rates between different species by examining human de novo...

Abstract RNA and proteins can have diverse isoforms due to post-transcriptional post-translational modifications. A fundamental question is whether these are mostly beneficial or the result of noisy molecular processes. To assess plausibility explanations, we developed mathematical models depicting different regulatory architectures investigated isoform evolution under multiple population genetic regimes. We found that factors beyond selection, such as effective size number cis -acting loci,...

Abstract Infertility is currently a major public health problem. Anti-sperm antibodies (ASAs) markedly reduce sperm quality, which can subsequently lead to male and/or female infertility. The accurate detection of ASAs derived from specific spermatozoa is, therefore, clinically useful. We have focused on the spermatozoa-specific expression protein ACTL7a for many years and developed an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) detect concentration anti-ACTL7a in fertile sera ( n = 267)...

Type I interferon (IFN-I)-induced signaling plays a critical role in host antiviral innate immune responses. Despite this, the mechanisms that regulate this pathway have yet to be fully elucidated. The nucleoporin Ran Binding Protein 2 (RanBP2) (also known as Nucleoporin 358 KDa, Nup358) has been implicated number of cellular processes, including pathways, and is influence viral infection. In study, we documented RanBP2 mediates sumoylation signal transducers activators transcription 1...
