SIRT1 gene polymorphisms have been linked with an increased risk of diabetic nephropathy in several epidemiological studies. Importantly, there is an inverse relationship between the activity of SGLT2 and signaling through the SIRT1/PGC-1α/FGF21 pathway, and SGLT2 inhibition leads to activation of these ketogenic nutrient deprivation sensors.…[Read more]

Background The optimal antithrombotic therapy for patients with atrial fibrillation undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention is a topic of debate. We aimed at defining the efficacy and safety of double antithrombotic therapy with single antiplatelet therapy (SAPT) plus a non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulant (NOAC) against triple…[Read more]

Electrical conductivity, LDH activity content and DNA extravasation in cinnamaldehyde-treated A. hydrophila increased by 7.14%, 16.75% and 20.29 μg/mL, respectively. Furthermore, nucleic acid fluorescence intensity and density decreased over time in the cinnamaldehyde-treated group. Taken together, these findings suggest that cinnamaldehyde can…[Read more]

In this work we report on the implementation of methods for data processing signals from microelectrode arrays (MEA) and the application of these methods for signals originated from two types of MEAs to detect putative neurons and sort them into subpopulations. We recorded electrical signals from firing neurons using titanium nitride (TiN) and…[Read more]

Since the end of 2019, the global COVID-19 outbreak has once again made coronaviruses a hot topic. Vaccines are hoped to be an effective way to stop the spread of the virus. However, there are no clinically approved vaccines available for coronavirus infections. Reverse genetics technology can realize the operation of RNA virus genomes at the DNA…[Read more]
