Role of Vitamin A in Induction of Vitamin K Deficiency in the Rat

Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1962
SummaryEvidence is presented to indicate that the level of dietary Vit. A is closely related to development of symptoms of Vit. K deficiency in the rat. Under appropriate experimental conditions, 0.5 and 5 i.u. of Vit. A per gram of diet gave reduced prothrombin concentrations which were not observed on corresponding rations deficient in Vit. A.

A Molecular Engineering Strategy to Fine‐Tune Phototoxicity of AIE Probes for Super‐Resolution Imaging of Mitochondrial Cristae Dynamics

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Regulation of molecular packing, phototoxicity, and ROS output of AIE photosensitizers is achieved through carboxylation and alkyl‐chain‐length tuning. The probe designed via this strategy enables super‐resolution visualization of inner‐mitochondrial‐membrane cristae dynamics under controlled oxidative stress, and fluorescence‐lifetime imaging of ...

Tailoring K+ Dosage in K+/Zn2+ Mixed Electrolytes via Lattice Expansion Regulation of Zinc Hexacyanoferrate for High‐performance Zinc Ion Batteries

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The study proposes a fitting curve as a reference to quantify the optimal K+ ratio in K+/Zn2+ mixed electrolyte, thus achieving stable and high‐capacity aqueous zinc ion batteries at each current density. ABSTRACT Incorporating K+ into Zn‐based electrolytes can enhance the performance of aqueous zinc ion batteries, while the lack of a clear rule for ...

Comparative analysis of vitamin K levels in women with intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy

BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth
Background Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) is a liver condition that may impact both mother and fetus, including preterm birth and hemorrhage. Vitamin K, a fat-soluble vitamin essential for coagulation, may be deficient in ICP due to impaired

Microplastics‐Induced Gut Microbiota Dysbiosis Accelerates Alzheimer's‐Like Pathology and Cognitive Decline via the Gut–Brain Axis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Microplastics (MPs) breach the gut‐brain axis by triggering taurine‐depleting microbiota dysbiosis that accelerates Alzheimer‐like pathology in 5XFAD mice. Taurine supplementation normalizes autophagy, microglial quiescence, and cognition, and plasma taurine inversely tracks cognitive decline in ADNI participants, revealing a readily translatable ...

Identification of a Nonribosomal Peptide Analog With Activity Against Multiple Gram‐Positive Bacteria via a Synthetic Bioinformatic Natural Product Discovery Approach

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The genome of Rhodococcus erythropolis D‐1 was analyzed by bioinformatic tools to mine a novel nonribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) gene cluster. A nonribosomal peptide analog ZURJC5 associated with the NRPS was chemically synthesized. Through structure‐activity relationship studies, ZURJC28 was ultimately obtained and showed antibacterial activity ...

T2T Genome Assembly and Multi‐Omics Data Reveal Terrestrial Adaptation and Mucus Biosynthesis in Tropical Leatherleaf Slug (Laevicaulis alte)

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A gap‐free genome assembly and multi‐omics comparison of the terrestrial slug Laevichaulis alte with an aquatic relative reveal that expansion of the VEGF family orchestrates mucus production, lipid metabolism, and immune defense—highlighting key molecular innovations for conquering life on land.

Acquired Vitamin K Deficiency as Unusual Cause of Bleeding Tendency in Adults: A Case Report of a Nonhospitalized Student Presenting with Severe Menorrhagia

Case Reports in Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2017
We report a rare case of acquired vitamin K deficiency presenting with severe menorrhagia and without any gynecological problem. Partial thromboplastin time (59.2 seconds) and prothrombin time (33.1 seconds, INR: 5.97) were considerably prolonged in ...

Light‐Activated Ruthenium Nanoclusters Reprogram the Metabolic‐Quorum Sensing Axis for Precision Periodontitis Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Under 660 nm visible light, Ru NCs efficiently photocatalyze nitrate‐to‐ammonium conversion and modulate oral nitrogen metabolism. They precisely perturb Veillonella parvula, block its key support to Porphyromonas gingivalis, and exert an “inhibiting without killing” antivirulence effect.

Effects of Vitamin K Administration in Correcting Coagulopathy in Patients with Liver Cirrhosis: Retrospective Clinical Study

Clinics and Practice
Background/Objectives: Coagulopathy is a common complication of liver cirrhosis, partly due to impaired synthesis of vitamin K-dependent coagulation factors. Despite its frequent use, the efficacy of vitamin K in this setting remains uncertain.
