Activating hair follicle stem cells (HFSCs) to promote regrowth holds promise for loss therapy, while challenges still remain develop a scenario that enables enhanced therapeutic efficiency and easy administration. Here we describe detachable microneedle patch-mediated drug delivery system, mainly made from hair-derived keratin, sustained of HFSC activators. It was demonstrated this device integrated with mesenchymal cell (MSC)-derived exosomes small molecular drug, UK5099, could enhance the...

Since inhaled glucocorticoids are the first-line treatment for asthma, asthma management becomes extremely difficult when does not react well to glucocorticoids. Formononetin, a bioactive isoflavone and typical phytoestrogen, has been shown have an anti-inflammatory impact while alleviating epithelial barrier dysfunction, which plays role in pathogenesis of allergic illnesses like asthma. However, biological mechanisms behind this unknown. As result, we set out investigate effects...

Antimicrobial packing showed great potential in extending the shelf life of food. However, developing a new biocomposite film with an intelligent and efficient antimicrobial performance is still desirable. Herein, Fe-MoOx encapsulated curcumin (Cur) filled chitosan-based composite (CCF films) was prepared by solvent casting method. The total color differences CCF films were less than 30%, satisfactory surface color, transparency, hydrophobicity, thermal stability also obtained. Besides,...

Abstract Background Low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) has been reported to accelerate fracture healing, but the mechanism is unclear and its efficacy needs be further optimized. Ultrasound in combination with functionalized microbubbles shown induce local shear forces controllable mechanical stress cells, amplifying effects of LIPUS. Nanoscale lipid bubbles (nanobubbles) have high stability good biosafety. However, effect LIPUS combined nanobubbles on osteogenesis rarely studied....

Previously, we identified miR-125b as a key regulator of the undifferentiated state hair follicle stem cells. Here, show that in both mice and humans, is abundantly expressed, particularly at early stages malignant progression to squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), second most prevalent cancer worldwide. Moreover, when elevated normal murine epidermis, promotes tumor initiation contributes progression. We further can confer “oncomiR addiction” stage progenitors by delaying their differentiation...

Abstract Background Histone modifications play a critical role in chromatin remodelling and regulate gene expression health disease. methyltransferases EZH1, EZH2, demethylases UTX, JMJD3, UTY catalyse trimethylation of lysine 27 on histone H3 (H3K27me3). This study was designed to investigate whether H3K27me3 triggers hyperglycemia-induced oxidative inflammatory transcriptional programs the endothelium. Methods We studied human aortic endothelial cells exposed high glucose (HAEC) or...

Hair conditions, such as hair loss and graying, are prevalent human conditions. But they often poorly controlled due to our insufficient understanding of scalp follicle (hsHF) in health disease. Here we describe a comprehensive single-cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) analysis on highly purified black early-stage graying hsHFs. Based these, concise atlas for hsHF its early changes is generated verified using samples from multiple independent individuals. These data reveal the lineage trajectory...

Although microRNA (miRNA)-mediated functions have been implicated in many aspects of animal development, the majority miRNA::mRNA regulatory interactions remain to be characterized experimentally. We used an AIN/GW182 protein immunoprecipitation approach systematically analyze during C. elegans development. composition miRNAs functional miRNA-induced silencing complexes(miRISCs) at each developmental stage and identified three sets with distinct stage-specificity function. then thousands...

Heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs) are required for various signaling pathways, one of which is the bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) pathway. N-deacetylase/N-sulfotransferase-1 (NDST1) participates in synthesizing heparan (HS) chains HSPGs, and involved lung development. Here, we report that spite redundant expression Ndst2, Ndst3 Ndst4 genes, Ndst1(-/-) mice display defective differentiation cells increased cell proliferation. Loss Ndst1 enhances downstream BMP vivo. Noggin, an...

Data mining has been widely applied to make prediction for finance crisis risk, and they often obtain a good result. Financial distress can be formulated as classification problem using data mining. Many methods used solve the early-warning problem, however, "one time" process cannot well support decision, one single method its weakness classification. In this paper, we use information fusion technique build model based on methods, which integrate respective strengths from different improve...

Paraoxonase1 (PON1) activity is closely related to coronary artery disease (CAD). However, whether PON1 can predict the degree of stenosis remains unknown. In present study, serum and factors that influence were analyzed in 186 patients with diagnostic angiography. The was determined using a spectrophotometry-based assay angiography, which severity graded clinically defined as single- or multi-vessel >50%. Target lesion quantified via quantitative angiography (QCA). significantly decreased...

Abstract The present study investigated the effect of acute stress on attentional bias to threat using behavioral and ERP methods. Sixty-two male participants were randomly assigned a condition (Trier Social Stress Test) or control condition. To examine impact stress-induced cortisol threat, in group split into Low- High responders. All then administered modified dot probe task which cues neutral angry faces. Behavioral results showed pattern toward Control but not group. For ERPs, P100...
