Mitochondrial fragmentation is a crucial mechanism contributing to tubular cell apoptosis during acute kidney injury (AKI). However, the of modulating mitochondrial dynamics AKI remains unclear. Numb multifunction adaptor protein that expressed in renal tubules. The aim present study was evaluate role dysfunction AKI.The expression upregulated both ischemia-reperfusion- and cisplatin-induced AKI. Depletion from proximal tubules (PT-Nb-KO) exacerbated shown as more severe damage higher serum...

NLRP3 (NOD-, LRR-, and pyrin domain-containing protein 3) inflammasome activation has emerged as a central mediator of kidney inflammation in diabetic disease (DKD). However, the mechanism underlying this DKD remains poorly defined. In study, we found that kidney-enriched microRNA-10a -10b (miR-10a/b), predominantly expressed podocytes tubular epithelial cells, were downregulated from mice patients with DKD. High glucose decreased miR-10a/b expression vitro an osmolarity-independent manner....

Abstract Recent studies have strongly shown that cell‐to‐cell transmission of neuropathogenic proteins is a common mechanism for the development neurodegenerative diseases. However, underlying cause complex and little known. Although distinct processes are involved in pathogenesis various diseases, they all share feature iron accumulation, an attribute particularly prominent synucleinopathies. whether cofactor facilitating spread α‐synuclein remains unclear. Here, we constructed model using...

Objective: To investigate the effect of acupuncture on Parkinson's disease (PD) patients with tremor and its potential neuromechanism by functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). Methods: Forty-one PD were randomly assigned to true group (TAG, n=14), sham (SAG, n=14) waiting (WG, n=13). All received levodopa for 12 weeks. Patients in TAG acupunctured DU20, GB20 Chorea-Tremor Controlled Zone, SAG accepted acupuncture, while WG no treatment until weeks after course was ended. The UPDRS Ⅱ Ⅲ...

Soybean [ Glycine max (L.)Merr.] is a leading oil-bearing crop and cultivated globally over vast scale. The agricultural landscape in China faces formidable challenge with drought significantly impacting soybean production. In this study, we treated natural population of 264 Chinese accessions using 15% PEG-6000 used GR, GE, GI, RGR, RGE, RGI ASFV as evaluation index. Using the ASFV, screened 17 strong drought-tolerant germplasm germination stage. Leveraging 2,597,425 high-density SNP...

Salt stress poses a significant challenge to crop productivity, and understanding the genetic basis of salt tolerance is paramount for breeding resilient soybean varieties. In this study, natural population was evaluated during germination stage, focusing on key traits, including rate (GR), energy (GE), index (GI). It seen that under stress, obvious inhibitions were found these with GR, GE, GI diminishing by 32% 54% when compared normal conditions. These traits displayed coefficient...

Emerging evidence suggests that α-synuclein (α-syn) aggregation and intercellular transmission contributes to pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD) the toxic fibrillary α-syn binds lymphocyte-activation gene 3 (LAG3) receptor mediates transmission. The deletion LAG3 in animal models was shown limit spreading alleviate pathological changes dopaminergic neurons behavioral deficits induced by aggregation. However, little is known about genetic association variation with human PD development.

Trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO) is an intestinal metabolic toxin, which produced by gut flora via metabolizing high-choline foods. TMAO known to increase the risk of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular events in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients.The objective this study was explore role mechanism aggravating injury.We used five-sixths nephrectomy (5/6 Nx)-induced CKD rats investigate whether could aggravate damage its possible mechanisms. Six weeks after operation, two groups 5/6 Nx were...

Patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) have higher rates of depression. However, the mechanism depression development remains unclear. The improvements EPA and DHA on dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced UC been verified. Therefore, present study mainly focused effects UC-induced in C57BL/6 mice possible mechanisms involved. A forced swimming test tail suspension experiment showed that significantly improved DSS-induced depressive-like behavior. Further analysis demonstrated could suppress...

Citrifurans A-D (1-4), metabolized by an Aspergillus sp., are unusual dimers of azaphilone and furanone derivatives. Michael addition was thought to be the pivotal procedure in their biosynthesis, different sites generated two new carbon skeletons. Their structures were elucidated on basis spectroscopic methods, single-crystal X-ray diffraction, chemical conversion, electronic circular dichroism analyses. Compounds 1-3 showed moderate inhibitory activities against LPS-induced NO production...
