In the microevolutionary scale of Giardia lamblia, the gene migration indicates how G. lamblia assemblages have transmitted between adjacent counties. 33 positive fecal samples were taken from patients suffering gastrointestinal disorders (nausea, bloating, burping constipation and fatty diarrhea) at Tabriz and Ardabil cities, where located in the cold regions of northwest Iran. Following parasitological examinations, DNA samples were extracted, amplified and digested by single-step PCR-RFLP assay, targeting the glutamate dehydrogenase (gdh) locus to distinguish within and between assemblages A and B. PCR products were directly sequenced to reconfirm their heterogeneity traits and phylogenetic analysis. Of the 33 isolates, 81.9% (n 27), 9% (n 3) and 9% (n 3) were successfully identified as assemblages A (genotype AII), B (genotype BIII) and the mixed of genotypes AII and B, respectively. Despite the presence of heterogeneous clinical backgrounds, a low genetic diversity of sub-assemblage AII was identified among symptomatic cases. A low value of pairwise fixation index showed that G. lamblia sub-assemblage AII is not genetically differentiated among northwest regions of Iran. The occurrence of haplotypes TAB-1/ARD-1 between two regional populations indicates that there is a dawn of G. lamblia gene flow due to transfer of alleles through host mobility and/or ecological alterations. To assess the hypothetical evolutionary scenario, further studies are essential for multilocus genotyping of G. lamblia in tropical regions of Iran and neighboring countries.Turner syndrome (TS) is a chromosomal disorder that affects 25-50 per 100,000 live born females. Patients with TS face a heavy burden of cardiovascular disease (congenital and acquired) with an increased risk of mortality and morbidity compared to the general population. Cardiovascular diseases are a major cause of death in females with TS. Approximately 50% of TS patients have a congenital heart abnormality, with a high incidence of bicuspid aortic valve (BAV), coarctation of the aorta (CoA) and generalised arteriopathy. Frequently, females with TS have systemic hypertension, which is also a risk factor for progressive cardiac dysfunction and aortopathy. This paper aims to provide an overview of the cardiovascular assessment, management and follow up strategies in this high-risk population.
Our purpose was to investigate the role of recombinant protein flagellin A N/C (FlaA N/C) protein-mediated pyroptosis inhibition and related miRNA in radiation protection.
Mice received 10 Gy irradiation after FlaA N/C pretreatment, IRAK-1/4 Inhibitor I treatment, or pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate treatment. Human intestinal epithelial cells (HIEC) received 10 Gy irradiation after FlaA N/C pretreatment, overexpressed miR-142a-3p with miR-142a-3p mimics, or inhibited miR-142a-3p with miR-142a-3p inhibitor. Mouse & Rat miRNA OneArray determined the change in relevant miRNA after FlaA N/C pretreatment; real-time polymerase chain reaction detected IRAK1 and miR-142a-3p expression; a CCK-8 assay evaluated cell viability; LDH release analyzed cytotoxicity; caspase-1 activity assay, interleukin-1β level, and flow cytometry analyzed pyroptosis in cells; hematoxylin-eosin staining evaluated the damage to intestinal tissue; CO-IP detected the inflammation activation; immunohistochemistry, Western blot analysis, anp, effectively inhibiting radiation-induced pyroptosis mediated by the IRAK1/NF-κB signaling pathway in intestinal cells.
Our findings indicated this new radioprotectant protein regulates miR-142a-3p, effectively inhibiting radiation-induced pyroptosis mediated by the IRAK1/NF-κB signaling pathway in intestinal cells.Cycas necrotic stunt virus (CNSV) has an extensive host range and is detected in an accelerated pace around the globe in several agricultural crops. One of the plant species affected is peony (Paeonia lactiflora Pall.). The virus is asymptomatic in most peony cultivars, but there have been reports of symptoms in others. It is thus important to study CNSV and its population structure to gain insights into its evolution and epidemiology. The outputs of this study, in addition to the in-depth analysis of the virus population structure, include the development of a multiplex RT-PCR detection protocol that can amplify all published CNSV isolate sequences; allowing for accurate, reliable detection of the virus and safeguarding its susceptible, clonally-propagated hosts.The discovery of acrylamide in various carbohydrate-rich foods cooked at high temperatures has attracted public health concerns. This study aimed to elucidate the effects and mechanisms additional with acrylamide exposure on the luteal function in vivo during early- and mid-pregnancy. Mice were fed with different dosages of acrylamide (0, 10 and 50 mg/kg/day) by gavage from gestational days (GD) 3 to GD 8 or GD 13. The results indicated that acrylamide exposure significantly decreased levels of serum progesterone and estradiol, and the numbers and relative areas of ovarian corpora lutea. The expression levels of Hsd3b1, Cyp11a1 and Star mRNA markedly reduced in acrylamide-treated ovaries. Furthermore, acrylamide exposure obviously suppressed the activities of catalase and superoxide dismutase, but increased the levels of H2O2 and malondialdehyde. Additionally, acrylamide treatment significantly inhibited luteal angiogenesis and induced the apoptosis of ovarian cells by up-regulation of P53 and Bax protein and down-regulation of Bcl-2 protein. Thus, our results showed that gestational exposure to acrylamide significantly inhibited luteal endocrine function via dysregulation of ovarian angiogenesis, oxidative stress and apoptosis in vivo.This study provides information on the health risk of As, Cd, Hg, Pb and V exposure from Nigerian foods consumption (fish, cow, goat and chicken meat) in different age-groups (children, adolescent, adult, senior) and six areas of Niger Delta, Nigeria (Choba, Khana, Eleme, TransAmadi, Uyo, and Yenogoa). The health risk assessment was performed by estimating the weekly or monthly intake of metals from foods and Margin of Exposure (MOE) approach by using established benchmark dose levels (BMDLs). Regarding As, cow and chicken meat products contributed to As exposure intake especially in children resulting in values higher than BMDL0.1 for cancer risk in TransAmadi and Uyo areas. Cadmium exposure was due to cow, chicken and goat meat ingestion mostly in adolescent above the tolerable monthly intake limit in TransAmadi and Uyo areas. Concerning Hg and V, the exposure from Nigerian food did not constitute a potential health hazard. Lead exposure in children were above or close to BMDL0.1 for developmental neurotoxicity by ingestion of cow and goat meat in all the Nigerian areas. In adult and senior the Pb dietary exposure were above the BMDL10 providing a low to negligible risk for kidney effects. The potential concern for health effects in Niger Delta population needs further efforts to decrease As, Cd and Pb dietary exposure especially for children and adolescent, who are more vulnerable to adverse life events.As widespread contaminants, fumonisins (FBs) and ochratoxins (OTs) in food may cause public health threat. In this study, the dietary exposures to FBs and OTs in the Chinese general population were investigated by means of a total diet study (TDS) approach. A total of 672 composite dietary samples were analyzed by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) in three consecutive China total diet studies from 2007 to 2020. Combining with the national consumption data, estimated dietary exposure to FBs and OTs were assessed and compared with health-based guidance values (HBGVs). The estimated daily intakes (EDIs) of FBs were 55-237 ng/kg bw/day at the upper bound accounting 2.77%-17.4% of provisional maximum tolerable daily intake (PMTDI). Cereals were the greatest contributor to fumonisin exposure. For ochratoxin A (OTA), the EDIs were 0.65-5.72 ng/kg bw/day at the upper bound accounting 4.67%-40.8% of provisional tolerable weekly intake (PTWI). Although the estimated exposures were well below their respective HBGVs in general, they were found to exceed HBGVs in sporadic regions. Moreover, there was a remarkable increase in the dietary exposure to fumonisin B3 (FB3) and ochratoxin B (OTB) over the last decade that is worth further attention.Inspired by the antitubercular activity of isoniazid (INH) and 5-bromoisatin, isatin-INH hybrid (WF-208) has been synthesized as a potent agent against multidrug-resistant (MDR) and extensively drug-resistant (XDR) strains of M. tuberculosis. In silico molecular docking studies indicated that DprE1, a critical enzyme in the synthesis of M. tuberculosis cell wall, is a potential enzymatic target for WF-208. The synthesized WF-208 was incorporated into a nanoparticulate system to enhance stability of the compound and to sustain its antimicrobial effect. Nanosized spherical niosomes (hydrodynamic diameter of ca. 500-600 nm) could accommodate WF-208 at a high encapsulation efficiency of 74.2%, and could impart superior stability to the compound in simulated gastric conditions. Interestingly, WF-208 had minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of 7.8 and 31.3 µg/mL against MDR and XDR M. Vorinostat solubility dmso tuberculosis, respectively, whereas INH failed to demonstrate bacterial growth inhibition at the range of the tested concentrations. WF-208-loaded niosomes exhibited a 4-fold increase in the anti-mycobacterial activity as compared to the free compound (MIC of 1.9 vs. 7.8 µg/mL) against H37Rv M. link2 tuberculosis, after three weeks of incubation with WF-208-loaded niosomes. Incorporation of the compound into nanosized vesicles allowed for a further increase in stability, potency and sustainability of the anti-mycobacterial activity, thus, providing a promising strategy for management of tuberculosis.The distributional homogeneity of chemicals is a key parameter of solid pharmaceutical formulations. Indeed, it may affect the efficacy of the drug and consequently its safety. Chemical imaging offers a unique insight enabling the visualisation of the different constituents of a pharmaceutical tablet. It allows identifying ingredients poorly distributed offering the possibility to optimize the process parameters or to adapt characteristics of incoming raw materials to increase the final product quality. Among the available chemical imaging tools, Raman imaging is one of the most widely used since it offers a high spatial resolution with well-resolved peaks resulting in a high spectral specificity. However, Raman imaging suffers from sample autofluorescence and long acquisition times. Recently commercialised, laser direct infrared reflectance imaging (LDIR) is a quantum cascade laser (QCL) based imaging technique that offers the opportunity to rapidly analyse samples. In this study, a typical pharmaceutical formulation blend composed of two active pharmaceutical ingredients and three excipients was aliquoted at different mixing timepoints. link3 The collected aliquots were tableted and analysed using both Raman and LDIR imaging. The distributional homogeneity indexes of one active ingredient image were then computed and compared. The results show that both techniques achieved similar conclusions. However, the analysis times were drastically different. While Raman imaging required a total analysis time of 4 h per tablet to obtain the distribution map of acetylsalicylic acid with a step size of 100 µm, it only took 7.5 min to achieve the same result with LDIR. The results obtained in the present study show that LDIR is a promising technique for the analysis of pharmaceutical formulations and that it could be a valuable tool when developing new pharmaceutical formulations.
