Modulation of Oxidized Low-density Lipoprotein-Affected Macrophage Efferocytosis by Mitochondrial Calcium Uniporter in a Murine Model
CONCLUSIONS: In this study, we found that MCU inhibition modulated intracytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration, improved impaired Mø efferocytosis, and reduced ROS generation. Macrophage efferocytosis removed apoptotic cells and prevented the release of inflammatory factor and foam cell formation, and this can be a potential new therapeutic target for alleviating atherosclerosis.PMID:37689315 | DOI:10.1016/j.imlet.2023.09.003

Sperm acrosomal released proteome reveals MDH and VDAC3 from mitochondria are involved in acrosome formation during spermatogenesis in Eriocheir sinensis
Gene. 2023 Sep 7:147784. doi: 10.1016/j.gene.2023.147784. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAcrosome is inextricably related to membranous organelles. The origin of acrosome is still controversial, one reason is that limited articles were reported about the proteomic analysis of the acrosome. Mitochondrial proteins were found exist in the acrosome, nevertheless, only limited attention has been paid to the function of mitochondrial proteins in the acrosome formation. Eriocheir sinensis sperm has a large acrosome, which makes it an ideal model to study acrosome formation. Here, we firstly compared the rate of acrosome reaction i...

Vascular endothelial growth factor B regulates insulin secretion in β cells of type 2 diabetes mellitus mice via PLCγ and the IP3R‑evoked Ca2 < sup > + < /sup > /CaMK2 signaling pathway
Mol Med Rep. 2023 Oct;28(4):197. doi: 10.3892/mmr.2023.13084. Epub 2023 Sep 8.ABSTRACTVascular endothelial growth factor B (VEGFB) plays a crucial role in glucolipid metabolism and is highly associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The role of VEGFB in the insulin secretion of β cells remains unverified. Thus, the present study aimed to discuss the effect of VEGFB on regulating insulin secretion in T2DM development, and its underlying mechanism. A high‑fat diet and streptozocin (STZ) were used for inducing T2DM in mice model, and VEGFB gene in islet cells of T2DM mice was knocked out by CRISPR Cas9 and overexpre...

The involvement of transient receptor potential channels in mast cell activation by microbubbles
This study was to explore the activation of mast cells by microbubbles, with the focus on transient receptor potential (TRP) channels mediated degranulation and calcium influx. Bone marrow-derived mast cells (BMMCs) were primarily obtained from femurs in mice and induced differentiation for 4 weeks. After the purity identification, BMMCs were contacted by homogeneous microbubbles with the diameter of 1 mm for 1 h. β-hexosaminidase and histamine levels in supernatants were assessed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and the CD63 expression was tested by flow cytometry. The intracellular calcium binding with Fluo-...

Ant-nest type porous scaffold with micro-struts consisting of carbonate apatite for promoting bone formation and scaffold resorption
In this study, ant-nest type porous (ANP) scaffolds consisting of CO3 Ap were fabricated using calcium carbonate powder or slurry and two types of polyurethane foam through a dissolution-precipitation reaction. ANP-type, three-dimensional, interconnected porous CO3 Ap scaffolds were fabricated by burning out the struts of polyurethane foams embedded in CaCO3 , followed by compositional transformation from CaCO3 to CO3 Ap. The types of polyurethane foam and impregnation methods of CaCO3 into polyurethane form affected the geometry of the resulting ANP structures. Mechanical and in vivo biological performances of these scaff...

Arsenic fractionation and speciation in different textured soils supplied with farmyard manure and accumulation by sunflower under alkaline calcareous conditions
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int. 2023 Sep 8. doi: 10.1007/s11356-023-29659-3. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTArsenic (As) is a naturally occurring element that is found in soil, water, and rocks. However, it can also be released into the environment through human activities. Arsenic is considered an environmental hazard because it is toxic to humans and animals and can cause serious health problems. Additionally, As-contaminated soil can limit plant growth and reduce crop yields, leading to economic losses for farmers. So, decreasing metal/metalloid solubility in soil by synthetic and organic amendments leads to better crop prod...

Mechanism of Lingbao Huxin Dan in the treatment of bradyarrhythmia complicated with coronary heart disease: a network pharmacology analysis
CONCLUSION: RBA-CHD may treat BA-CHD by regulating adrenergic receptor beta-1, alpha 1-α adrenergic receptor, calcium voltage-gated channel subunit alpha1 C, alpha-1β-adrenergic receptor, nitric oxide synthase 2, beta-2 adrenergic receptor, voltage-dependent calcium channel subunit alpha-2/delta-1, an- giotensin-converting enzyme, Raf-1 proto-oncogene serine/threonine-protein kinase, and other targets, potentially by affecting adrenergic receptor binding and calcium channel opening, to regulate the activity of cardiomyocytes.PMID:37679988 | PMC:PMC10465840 | DOI:10.19852/j.cnki.jtcm.20230802.001

Improving Biohydrogen Production by Dark Fermentation of Milk Processing Wastewater by Physicochemical and Enzymatic Pretreatments
Appl Biochem Biotechnol. 2023 Sep 8. doi: 10.1007/s12010-023-04619-2. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTBiohydrogen is considered an alternative energy reserve. Dark fermentation is one of the important green hydrogen production techniques that utilizes organic waste as raw material. It is a promising bioconversion, easy, not expensive, and cost-effective process. Milk processing wastewater (MPWW) is an organic effluent generated in large volumes on a daily basis and disposed directly into the environment. In this research, the study of biochemical hydrogen potential (BHP) test of MPWW was evaluated and used as substrate (S). ...
