RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: Tacrolimus (TAC) is a first-line immunosuppressant to prevent allograft rejection. Wuzhi tablet is widely used as a TAC-sparing agent in China that could significantly elevate TAC exposure. However, insufficient data support the dose recommendation of TAC when co-administered with Wuzhi. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 305 adult renal transplant patients with 2,541 TAC trough concentrations (C0) were enrolled for population pharmacokinetic (PPK) modeling. CYP3A5 polymorphism was genotyped, and corresponding clinical factors were recorded. Nonlinear mixed-effects modeling and Monte Carlo simulation were used for dose recommendation. PK parameters were calculated based on one-compartment model with first-order absorption and elimination. RESULTS: The estimated total clearance (CL/F) and volume of distribution (Vd/F) of TAC were 23.84 L/h and 1,075.96 L, respectively. Wuzhi, CYP3A5 genotype, hematocrit (HCT), and weight were found to have a significant influence on CL/F. CL/F was significantly lower in the individuals who were CYP3A5 non-expressers and received TAC together with Wuzhi. CYP3A5 genotype (expressers or non-expressers), body weight (40 - 80 kg), and hematocrit (20 - 40%) were selected as the specific clinical scenarios, and the starting dose of TAC ranged from 1.5 to 4.5 mg when co-administered with Wuzhi. CONCLUSION: We establish a TAC PPK model comprising Wuzhi as a covariate in renal transplant recipients and recommend an initial dose of TAC when co-administered with Wuzhi, which could provide reference for the individualized regimens of TAC.
RESUMEN
EEG-based emotion recognition is becoming crucial in brain-computer interfaces (BCI). Currently, most researches focus on improving accuracy, while neglecting further research on the interpretability of models, we are committed to analyzing the impact of different brain regions and signal frequency bands on emotion generation based on graph structure. Therefore, this paper proposes a method named Dual Attention Mechanism Graph Convolutional Neural Network (DAMGCN). Specifically, we utilize graph convolutional neural networks to model the brain network as a graph to extract representative spatial features. Furthermore, we employ the self-attention mechanism of the Transformer model which allocates more electrode channel weights and signal frequency band weights to important brain regions and frequency bands. The visualization of attention mechanism clearly demonstrates the weight allocation learned by DAMGCN. During the performance evaluation of our model on the DEAP, SEED, and SEED-IV datasets, we achieved the best results on the SEED dataset, showing subject-dependent experiments' accuracy of 99.42% and subject-independent experiments' accuracy of 73.21%. The results are demonstrably superior to the accuracies of most existing models in the realm of EEG-based emotion recognition.
RESUMEN
Drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) is a rare and severe cutaneous adverse drug reactions (SCARs) with high mortality. Antibiotics are the most frequent causative agents related to DRESS. However, it is rarely reported in cephalosporins, especially for ceftazidime. Here, we reported a case of ceftazidime-induced DRESS with HLA genotypic polymorphism as a risk factor. A 58-year-old woman with connective tissue disease was intravenously infused with ceftazidime for the treatment of pneumonia and intestinal infection, followed by the presence of fever, rash, and hematologic and hepatic laboratory abnormalities. DRESS was diagnosed and the positive polymorphism in HLA-B*15:02 was found. Our case illustrated the necessity to clarify the patho-mechanism and the use of pretreatment HLA analysis to prevent ceftazidime-related DRESS may be a valuable option soon.
RESUMEN
In China, saline-alkali lands constitute 5.01% of the total land area, having a significant impact on both domestic and international food production. Rapeseed (Brassica napus L.), as one of the most important oilseed crops in China, has garnered considerable attention due to its potential adaptability to saline conditions. Breeding and improving salt-tolerant varieties is a key strategy for the effective utilization of saline lands. Hence, it is important to conduct comprehensive research into the adaptability and salt tolerance mechanisms of Brassica napus in saline environments as well as to breed novel salt-tolerant varieties. This review summarizes the molecular mechanism of salt tolerance, physiological and phenotypic indexes, research strategies for the screening of salt-tolerant germplasm resources, and genetic engineering tools for salt stress in Brassica napus. It also introduces various agronomic strategies for applying exogenous substances to alleviate salt stress and provide technological tools and research directions for future research on salt tolerance in Brassica napus.
RESUMEN
Background: High altitude de-acclimatization (HADA) is gradually becoming a public health concern as millions of individuals of different occupations migrate to high-altitude areas for work due to economic growth in plateau areas. HADA affects people who return to lower elevations after exposure to high altitudes. It causes significant physiological and functional changes that can negatively impact health and even endanger life. However, uncertainties persist about the detailed mechanisms underlying HADA. Methods: We established a population cohort of individuals with HADA and assessed variations in metabolite composition. Plasm samples of four groups, including subjects staying at plain (P) and high altitude (H) as well as subjects suffering from HADA syndrome with almost no reaction (r3) and mild-to-moderate reaction (R3) after returning to plain from high altitude, were collected and analyzed by Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry metabolomic. Multivariate statistical analyses were used to explore significant differences and potential clinical prospect of metabolites. Result: Although significantly different on current HADAS diagnostic symptom score, there were no differences in 17 usual clinical indices between r3 and R3. Further multivariate analyses showed isolated clustering distribution of the metabolites among the four groups, suggesting significant differences in their metabolic characteristics. Through K-means clustering analysis, we identified 235 metabolites that exhibited patterns of abundance change consistent with phenotype of HADA syndrome. Pathway enrichment analysis indicated a high influence of polyunsaturated fatty acids under high-altitude conditions. We compared the metabolites between R3 and r3 and found 107 metabolites with differential abundance involved in lipid metabolism and oxidation, suggesting their potential role in the regulation of oxidative stress homeostasis. Among them, four metabolites might play a key role in the occurrence of HADA, including 11-beta-hydroxyandrosterone-3-glucuronide, 5-methoxyindoleacetate, 9,10-epoxyoctadecenoic acid, and PysoPC (20:5). Conclusion: We observed the dynamic variation in the metabolic process of HADA. Levels of four metabolites, which might be provoking HADA mediated through lipid metabolism and oxidation, were expected to be explore prospective indices for HADA. Additionally, metabolomics was more efficient in identifying environmental risk factors than clinical examination when dramatic metabolic disturbances underlying the difference in symptoms were detected, providing new insights into the molecular mechanisms of HADAS.
RESUMEN
The first registered Paeonia Itoh hybrid cv. Hexie in China is a naturally occurring intersectional hybrid of Sect. Paeonia and Sect. Moutan. In this study, we sequenced, assembled, and analyzed the complete chloroplast genome of Paeonia Itoh hybrid cv. Hexie. The result showed that the chloroplast genome of Hexie, with a typical circular tetrad structure, is 152,958 bp in length, comprising a large single copy (LSC) region of 84,613 bp, a small single copy (SSC) region of 17,051 bp, and two reverse complementary sequences (IRs) of 25,647 bp. The chloroplast genome encoded 116 genes, including 80 protein-coding genes, 32 tRNA genes, and 4 rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis inferred from the shared protein-coding genes showed that the Paeonia Itoh hybrid cv. Hexie had the closest phylogenetic relationship with P. suffruticosa, followed by P. ostii, indicating that P. suffruticosa was its maternal parent. This study provides a molecular resource for phylogenetic and maternal parent studies of Paeonia Itoh hybrid, contributing to a basis for Paeonia Itoh hybrid breeding strategies in the future.
RESUMEN
Stipa breviflora is a dominant species in the desert steppe of Northern China. Grazing is the main land use pattern of grassland, which could cause a variety of adaptive evolutionary mechanisms in plant community composition as well as individual plant growth and morphological characteristics. However, very little is known about the morphological structure and transcriptional regulation response to different grazing intensities in S. breviflora. In this study, transcriptome and anatomical analyses of S. breviflora under different grazing intensities, including no grazing, moderate grazing, and heavy grazing, were performed. The anatomical analysis results showed that epidermis cells and xylems significantly thicken with grazing intensity, suggesting that grazing results in increasing lignification. Furthermore, the components of cell walls such as lignin, cellulose, hemicellulose, and pectin were all increased dramatically and significantly under both moderate and heavy grazing. Transcriptome analysis showed that the differentially expressed genes related to different grazing intensities were also engaged in plant cell wall formation and in photosynthesis and respiration. In addition, the activities of ATP synthase and Rubisco-activating enzyme increased significantly with enhanced grazing intensity and differed significantly between moderate and heavy grazing intensities. The trends in transcriptome and plant phenotype changes are consistent. Taken together, these results indicated that S. breviflora has evolved a grazing tolerance strategy under long-term grazing conditions, influencing photosynthesis and respiration in terms of its own structure and enzyme activities in the body, to maintain normal life activities under different grazing conditions.
RESUMEN
Alloy engineering plays an important role in regulating the optoelectronic properties of materials. This work demonstrates that Bi2Te0.6S2.4 alloys can extend nonlinear optical response to the near-infrared range. Te alloying at S sites can narrow the band gap, as proved by density functional theory (DFT) calculations, leading to a broadband saturable absorption response ranging from ultraviolet (350 nm) to near-infrared (1100 nm) wavelength with negative nonlinear optical absorption coefficient ranging from -0.12 cm GW-1 to -1.28 cm GW-1. Moreover, the broadband carrier dynamic of Bi2Te0.6S2.4 alloys was investigated via femtosecond transient absorption (TA) at an excitation of 325 nm. A faster carrier dynamic at near-infrared wavelength was observed because of an increase in electron density at the conduction band minimum due to the additional Bi-Te interaction, which was corroborated by DFT calculations. These results suggest that alloy engineering provides an effective way for the development of broadband nonlinear optical devices.
RESUMEN
Methyleugenol is one of the main active constituents in the volatile oil of the traditional Chinese medicine Asari Radix et Rhizoma. It possesses various pharmacological effects such as analgesic, anesthetic, and anti-inflammatory properties. In biosynthesis, the initial precursor phenylalanine is finally converted into methyleugenol through a series of intermediate compounds including coniferyl acid, courmaryl acid, caffeic acid, ferulic acid/ferulic-CoA, coniferyl aldehyde, conferyl alcohol, cnfiferyl acetate, and eugenol/isoeugenol, which are produced through catalysis of a large number of enzymes. Eugenol O-methyltransferase(EOMT) is one of the key enzymes in the biosynthesis pathway, capable of methylating eugenol on the para-site hydroxyl group of the benzene ring, thereby generating methyleugenol. Here, an(iso)eugenol O-methyltransferase(IEMT) gene was cloned for the first time from Asarum siebo-ldii, holding an open reading frame that consisted of 1 113 bp and encoded a protein containing 370 amino acid residues. Bioinformatics analysis results showed that this protein was equipped with the characteristic structural domains of methyltransferases such as S-adenosylmethionine(SAM) binding sites and dimerization domains. The prokaryotic expression recombinant plasmid pET28a(+)-AsIEMT was constructed, and the candidate protein was induced and purified. In vitro enzyme assays confirmed that AsIEMT had dual functions. The enzyme could catalyze the production either of methyleugenol from eugenol or of methylisoeugenol from isoeugenol, although the latter was more prevalent. When isoeugenol was used as the substrate, the kinetics parameters K_m and V_(max) of catalytic reaction were(0.90±0.06) mmol·L~(-1) and(1.32±0.04)nmol·s~(-1)·mg~(-1), respectively. This study expanded our understandings of critical enzyme genes involved in phenylpropanoid metabolic pathways, and would facilitate the elucidation of quality formation mechanisms of the TCM Asari Radix et Rhizoma.

Glycan-based scaffolds are unique in their high specificity, versatility, low immunogenicity, and ability to mimic natural carbohydrates, making them attractive candidates for use in cancer treatment. These scaffolds are made up of glycans, which are biopolymers with well biocompatibility in the human body that can be used for drug delivery. The versatility of glycan-based scaffolds allows for the modulation of drug activity and targeted delivery to specific cells or tissues, which increases the potency of drugs and reduces side effects. Despite their promise, there are still technical challenges in the design and production of glycan-based scaffolds, as well as limitations in their therapeutic efficacy and specificity.

The evaluation of anti-tumor drugs is critical for their development and clinical guidance. Tumor organoid models are gaining increased attention due to their ability to better mimic real tumor tissues, as well as lower time and economic costs, which makes up for the shortcomings of cell lines and xenograft models. However, current tumor organoid cultures based on the Matrigel have limitations in matching with high-throughput engineering methods due to slow gelation and low mechanical strength. Here, we present a novel composite bioink for culturing colorectal cancer organoids that provides an environment close to real tissue growth conditions and exhibits excellent photocrosslinking properties for rapid gel formation. Most importantly, the tumor organoids viability in the composite bioink after printing was as high as 97%, which also kept multicellular polar structures consistent with traditional culture methods in the Matrigel. Using 3D bioprinting with this composite bioink loaded with organoids, we demonstrated the feasibility of this drug evaluation model by validating it with clinically used colorectal cancer treatment drugs. Our results suggested that the composite bioink could effectively cultivate tumor organoids using 3D bioprinting, which had the potential to replace less reliable manual operations in promoting the application of tumor organoids in drug development and clinical guidance.

Eutrophication and harmful algae blooms are one of the common ecological and environmental problems faced by freshwater lakes all over the world. As a typical inland freshwater lake, Chaohu Lake exhibits a high level of eutrophication and algae blooms year-round and shows a spatiotemporal difference in different regions of the lake. In order to understand the basic regularity of the development and outbreak of algal blooms in Chaohu Lake, the data from the comprehensive water observation platform and remote sensing were integrated to obtain the spatiotemporal distribution of algal blooms from 2015 to 2020. Then, an evaluation model based on Boosted Regression Trees (BRT) was constructed to quantitatively assess the importance and interactions of various environmental factors on algal blooms at different stages. The results indicated that:â The occurrence of algal blooms in Chaohu Lake exhibited significant seasonal variations, with the cyanobacteria beginning to recover in spring and bring about a light degree of algal blooms in the western and coastal areas of Chaohu Lake. The density of cyanobacteria reached its maximum in summer and autumn, accompanied by moderate and severe degrees of algal bloom outbreaks. â¡ During the non-outbreak period, the variation in the cyanobacteria density was greatly affected by physical and chemical factors, which explained 80.3% of the variance in the change in cyanobacteria density. The high concentrations of dissolved oxygen content in the water column and the weak alkalinity (7.2-7.6) and appropriate water temperature (about 3â) provided a favorable environmental condition for the breeding and growth of cyanobacteria. In addition, the onset of algal blooms was closely related to the air temperature steadily passing through the threshold. According to the statistics, the date of first outbreak of algal blooms in Chaohu Lake was 11 days or so after the air temperature steadily remained above 7â. ⢠During the outbreak period, the occurrence of algal blooms was influenced by the combination of cyanobacterial biomass and meteorological conditions such as temperature, wind speed, and sunshine duration. The cumulative contribution ratio of the four factors was as high as 95%, and each factor had an optimal interval conductive to the outbreak of algal blooms. Furthermore, the results of multi-factor interaction analysis indicated a larger probability of the outbreak of algal blooms in Chaohu Lake under the combined effect of high cyanobacteria density, suitable temperature, and the breeze. This study analyzed and revealed the spatiotemporal characteristics and the dominant influencing factors of algal blooms in Chaohu Lake at different stages, which could provide the scientific basis for the prediction, early warning, and disposal of algal blooms under the context of climate change.

The treatment of infected wounds faces substantial challenges due to the high incidence and serious infection-related complications. Natural-based hydrogel dressings with favorable antibacterial properties and strong applicability are urgently needed. Herein, we developed a composite hydrogel by constructing multiple networks and loading ciprofloxacin for infected wound healing. The hydrogel was synthesized via a Schiff base reaction between carboxymethyl chitosan and oxidized sodium alginate, followed by the polymerization of the acrylamide monomer. The resultant hydrogel dressing possessed a good self-healing ability, considerable compression strength, and reliable compression fatigue resistance. In vitro assessment showed that the composite hydrogel effectively eliminated bacteria and exhibited an excellent biocompatibility. In a model of Staphylococcus aureus-infected full-thickness wounds, wound healing was significantly accelerated without scars through the composite hydrogel by reducing wound inflammation. Overall, this study opens up a new way for developing multifunctional hydrogel wound dressings to treat wound infections.

Traditionally considered a disease common in the older population, colorectal cancer is increasing in incidence among younger demographics. Evidence suggests that populational- and generational-level shifts in the composition of the human gut microbiome may be tied to the recent trends in gastrointestinal carcinogenesis. This review provides an overview of current research and putative mechanisms behind the rising incidence of colorectal cancer in the younger population, with insight into future interventions that may prevent or reverse the rate of early-onset colorectal carcinoma.
RESUMEN
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) has recently been linked to cognitive impairment. We hypothesized that AMD modifies the brain aging trajectory, and we conducted a longitudinal diffusion MRI study on 40 participants (20 with AMD and 20 controls) to reveal the location, extent, and dynamics of AMD-related brain changes. Voxel-based analyses at the first visit identified reduced volume in AMD participants in the cuneate gyrus, associated with vision, and the temporal and bilateral cingulate gyrus, linked to higher cognition and memory. The second visit occurred 2 years after the first and revealed that AMD participants had reduced cingulate and superior frontal gyrus volumes, as well as lower fractional anisotropy (FA) for the bilateral occipital lobe, including the visual and the superior frontal cortex. We detected faster rates of volume and FA reduction in AMD participants in the left temporal cortex. We identified inter-lingual and lingual-cerebellar connections as important differentiators in AMD participants. Bundle analyses revealed that the lingual gyrus had a lower streamline length in the AMD participants at the first visit, indicating a connection between retinal and brain health. FA differences in select inter-lingual and lingual cerebellar bundles at the second visit showed downstream effects of vision loss. Our analyses revealed widespread changes in AMD participants, beyond brain networks directly involved in vision processing.
RESUMEN
Intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD) is a main cause of low back pain (LBP), which can lead to disability and thus generate a heavy burden on society. IVDD is characterized by a decrease in nucleus pulposus cells (NPCs) and endogenous mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), degradation of the extracellular matrix, macrophage infiltration, and blood vessel and nerve ingrowth. To date, the therapeutic approaches regarding IVDD mainly include conservative treatment and surgical intervention. However, both can only relieve symptoms rather than stop or revert the progression of IVDD, since the pathogenesis of IVDD is not yet clear. Pyroptosis, which is characterized by Caspase family dependence and conducted by the Gasdermin family, is a newly discovered mode of programmed cell death. Pyroptosis has been observed in NPCs, annulus fibrosus cells (AFCs), chondrocytes, MSCs, macrophages, vascular endothelial cells and neurons and may contribute to IVDD. MSCs are a kind of pluripotent stem cell that can be found in almost all tissues. MSCs have a strong ability to secrete extracellular vesicles (EVs), which contain exosomes, microvesicles and apoptotic bodies. EVs derived from MSCs play an important role in pyroptosis regulation and could be beneficial for alleviating IVDD. This review focuses on clarifying the regulation of pyroptosis to improve IVDD by MSCs and EVs derived from MSCs.

The detection technology of infrared polarization has gained significant attention due to its ability to provide better identification and obtain more information about the target. In this paper, based on the expression of the full polarization state in Stokes space, we designed micro-nano metasurface functional arrays to calculate the polarization state of the incident light by reading the Stokes parameters (a set of parameters that describe the polarization state). Metalens with linear and circular polarization-dependent functions are designed based on the propagation and geometric phases of the dielectric Si meta-atoms in the infrared band, respectively. The device exhibits a high polarization extinction ratio. The influence of incident angle on polarization-dependent metalens is discussed, and the analysis of incident angle is of great significance for the practical application. An infrared six-foci metalens is proposed, each corresponding to the Poincaré sphere's coordinate component (a graphical polarization state method). By matching the six polarization components of the incident light and the Stokes parameters, the polarization detection function can be realized by calculating the polarization state of the incident light. There is a slight error between the theoretical value and the calculated value of the unit coordinate component of the Stokes parameters. At the same time, the intensity distribution of different incident light polarization azimuth angles and ellipticity angles on the focal plane agrees with the theory. The advantage of the device is that the polarization state of the incident light can be directly calculated without passing through other components. The six-foci metalens have potential applications in polarization detection and imaging, space remote sensing, etc.
RESUMEN
Polarization and focal length are both critical optical parameters with many applications in many fields, such as optical communications and imaging. The development of metasurfaces provides a new realization of optical systems. In this paper, based on metasurfaces' powerful electromagnetic modulation capability, we integrate polarization conversion with continuous zoom function and propose a dynamic polarization-regulated metasurface with variable focal length. It realizes the reversible conversion of polarization state, which can convert linearly polarized light into elliptically polarized light and circularly polarized light and convert circularly polarized light to linearly polarized light. At the same time, it achieves a 4.4× zoom range, with a constant focal length variation from 70â µm to 309â µm. The metasurface has the advantages of small size, easy integration, and reconfigurability, providing a new design idea for complex functional optical systems.
RESUMEN
Despite the longstanding use of nitrous oxide and descriptions of its psychological effects more than a century ago, there is a paucity of neurobiological investigation of associated psychedelic experiences. We measure the brain's functional geometry (through analysis of cortical gradients) and temporal dynamics (through analysis of co-activation patterns) using human resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging data acquired before and during administration of 35% nitrous oxide. Both analyses demonstrate that nitrous oxide reduces functional differentiation in frontoparietal and somatomotor networks. Importantly, the subjective psychedelic experience induced by nitrous oxide is inversely correlated with the degree of functional differentiation. Thus, like classical psychedelics acting on serotonin receptors, nitrous oxide flattens the functional geometry of the cortex and disrupts temporal dynamics in association with psychoactive effects.

To explore the genetic diversity of Asarum sieboldii this study developed SSR markers based on transcriptome sequencing results and five populations of A.sieboldii from different regions were used as samples for genetic diversity assessment using software such as GenALEx 6.5, NTSYS 2.1, and Structure 2.3.4. The results showed that 16 SSR markers with high polymorphism and good repeatability were selected from the A.sieboldii transcriptome. Primers designed based on the flanking sequences of these markers successfully amplified 56 polymorphic fragments from 150 individual samples of the five A.sieboldii populations. On average, each primer amplified 3.5 polymorphic fragments, ranging from 2 to 8. The mean values of expected heterozygosity(H_e), Shannon's diversity index(I), Nei's gene diversity index(H), and the polymorphic information content(PIC) were 0.172, 0.281, 0.429, and 0.382, respectively. The mean population differentiation coefficient(F_(ST)) was 0.588, consistent with the analysis of molecular variance(AMOVA) results, which indicated greater genetic variation among A.sieboldii populations(69%) than that within populations(31%). The percentage of polymorphic loci(PPL) ranged from highest to lowest as SNJ>LN>SY>SZ>TB. Principal coordinate analysis(PCoA) and UPGMA clustering analysis further revealed genetic clustering of A.sieboldii individuals based on their geographical distribution, consistent with the results of the structure clustering analysis. In summary, the SSR markers developed from the transcriptome effectively assessed the genetic differentiation and population structure of natural A.sieboldii populations, revealing a relatively low genetic diversity in A.sieboldii, with genetic variation primarily observed at the population level and a correlation between population differentiation and geographic distance.
