Inhalable Polymeric Nanoparticle Containing Triphenylphosphanium Bromide‐modified Sonosensitizer for Enhanced Therapy of Acute Bacterial Pneumonia

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Bacterial pneumonia is the sixth leading cause of death. In this study, an inhalable polymeric nanoparticle NPFCPS‐P is developed, which under US stimulation showed high efficacy in the treatment of acute bacterial pneumonia. This nanoplatform would be much less prone to select bacterial resistance and represented a promising measure for antibiotics ...

Utilizing Caenorhabditis Elegans as a Rapid and Precise Model for Assessing Amphetamine‐Type Stimulants: A Novel Approach to Evaluating New Psychoactive Substances Activity and Mechanisms

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study uses Caenorhabditis elegans to assess the activity of amphetamine‐type stimulants (ATS) and their analogs. The research highlights the roles of dopamine and serotonin pathways, distinguishes chiral forms of ATS, and identifies structure‐activity relationships. These findings provide a rapid and cost‐effective model for evaluating the effects

PAF‐induced inflammatory and immuno‐allergic ophthalmic diseases and their mitigation with PAF receptor antagonists: Cell and nuclear effects

BioFactors, Volume 48, Issue 6, Page 1226-1249, November/December 2022., 2022
Abstract Ocular allergies are becoming more prevalent as more airborne pollutants, irritants and microbes pervade our environment. Inflammatory and allergic mediators released by dendritic and mast cells within the conjunctiva cause allergic conjunctivitis (AC), a prevalent ocular surface disorder that affects >40% of the world's human population on a ...

FABP4 as a Mediator of Lipid Metabolism and Pregnant Uterine Dysfunction in Obesity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Obesity during late pregnancy contributes to uterine smooth muscle dysfunction, but the underlying mechanisms are unclear. This study identifies fatty acid binding protein 4 (FABP4) as a key player in the process, mediating excessive fatty acid uptake, lipid accumulation, and mitochondrial dysfunction in myometrial cells. FABP4 could be a novel uterine

HDAC6 and USP9X Control Glutamine Metabolism by Stabilizing GS to Promote Glioblastoma Tumorigenesis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Glioblastoma (GBM) growth relies on glutamine synthetase (GS), which is stabilized by histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) and deubiquitinated by ubiquitin‐specific peptidase 9, X‐linked (USP9X). HDAC6 promotes GS deacetylation, while USP9X removes its K48‐linked polyubiquitination, enhancing GS stability.

Analysis of serum metabolism in premature infants before and after feeding using GC–MS and the relationship with necrotizing enterocolitis

Biomedical Chromatography, Volume 37, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Preterm birth and enteral feeding are two main factors leading to necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC). The metabolomics of preterm infants before and after feeding can provide a basis for the prediction of NEC. Using the method of cross‐sectional study, the mode was established with the serum samples of 19 premature infants at birth and after ...

Overcoming Extreme Ammonia Inhibition on Methanogenesis by Artificially Constructing a Synergistically Community with Acidogenic Bacteria and Hydrogenotrophic Archaea

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study proposes a two‐step biological strategy to synergistically enhance the three stages of anaerobic digestion, ultimately eliminating the extreme ammonia inhibition and breaking through the inefficiency bottleneck of conventional biotechnology.

Enhancing Plastic Decomposition in Mealworms (Tenebrio molitor): The Role of Nutritional Amino Acids and Water

Advanced Energy and Sustainability Research, EarlyView.
The decomposition of single‐use plastics by selected insects is often sustained or enhanced through the addition of natural supplements or feeds. Herein, the rationale behind these choices is demonstrated by examining the effects of selected amino acids and water as enhancers in the biodegradation of polystyrene by mealworms.

Benefit from Biomass Boiler Emissions to Increase Greenhouse CO2 Levels for Optimal Growth and Yield in Tomato, Cucumber, and Strawberry

Advanced Energy and Sustainability Research, EarlyView.
Using CO2‐rich polluting gases in greenhouse plant cultivation has proven to be a promising technique for stimulating plants while reducing emissions to the atmosphere. The use of an experimental biofilter proves to be effective in retaining most of the toxic particles. The alteration of physiological and metabolic parameters shows an adaptation of the

Tetrandrine alleviates inflammation and neuron apoptosis in experimental traumatic brain injury by regulating the IRE1α/JNK/CHOP signal pathway

Brain and Behavior, Volume 12, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Aim The aim of this study was to investigate the therapeutic roles of Tetrandrine (TET) on traumatic brain injury (TBI) and the underlying mechanism. Method Traumatic injury model of hippocampal neurons and TBI mouse model were established to evaluate the therapeutic effects.
