CNP-miR146a Decreases Inflammation in Murine Acute Infectious Lung Injury

, 2023
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) has approximately 40% in-hospital mortality, and treatment is limited to supportive care. Pneumonia is the underlying etiology in many cases with unrestrained inflammation central to the pathophysiology. We have

Somatosensory Disturbance and Long‐Term Exposure to Methylmercury: A Comprehensive Review

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chronic exposure to methylmercury remains a significant public health concern, particularly in populations with high fish consumption. Somatosensory disturbances are among the most frequently reported neurological manifestations, even at exposure levels below internationally established safety thresholds. This review aims to synthesize current

C-type natriuretic peptide stimulates osteoblastic proliferation and collagen-X expression but suppresses fibroblast growth factor-23 expression in vitro

Pediatric Rheumatology Online Journal, 2020
Background The effects of C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) and fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-23 appear to oppose each other during the process of bone formation, whereas few studies exist on the interaction between CNP and FGF-23.

Chitosan‐protected dsRNA increases efficacy against Helicoverpa armigera without compromising biosafety for pollinators

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Chitosan/tripolyphosphate/double‐stranded RNA (dsRNA) nanoparticles enhance RNA interference efficacy of orally delivered dsRNA against Helicoverpa armigera. Nanoparticles reduce the LC50 and do not cause deleterious effects or toxicity on beneficial insects.

Exploring the Use and Impact of Composite Materials in Robotics: A Systematic Review

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lightweight and high‐strength materials are important in robotics, as structural design impacts efficiency, payload capacity, and energy consumption. Composite materials, with their superior stiffness‐to‐weight ratios and multifunctional properties, offer clear advantages over conventional metals and polymers.

Structure and functional genes associated with carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, and sulfur cycling processes in periphyton: A comparison between natural and artificial rivers

River, EarlyView.
Network analysis of functional genes among prokaryotes, and eukaryotes in natural and artificial rivers. Abstract Periphyton in aquatic ecosystems plays vital roles in the elemental cycle process and is vulnerable to anthropogenic interference. However, few studies have explored the elemental cycles of carbon (C), nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and ...
