Modes-of-Action Related to Repeated Dose Toxicity: Tissue-Specific Biological Roles of PPARγ Ligand-Dependent Dysregulation in Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease by Merilin Al Sharif, Petko Alov, Vessela Vitcheva, Ilza Pajeva, Ivanka Tsakovska

“…A detailed analysis was performed regarding proteins which PPARγ-mediated expression changes had been confirmed to be prosteatotic by most experimental evidence. Two probable toxicological MoAs from PPARγ ligand binding to NAFLD were described according to the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) concepts: (i) PPARγ activation in hepatocytes and (ii) PPARγ inhibition in adipocytes. …”

Molecular investigation of how drought stress affects chlorophyll metabolism and photosynthesis in leaves of C3 and C4 plant species: A transcriptome meta-analysis by Shima Karami, Behrouz Shiran, Rudabeh Ravash

“…On the other hand, it seems that in wheat, in order to deal with oxidative stress, the expression of homologous genes of C4 enzyme and genes involved in heme and siroheme synthesis pathway has increased under stress. This is probably due to the higher photoinhibition in C3 photosynthetic system compared to C4. …”

HPGCN: A graph convolutional network-based prediction model for herbal heat/cold properties by Qikai Niu, Jing’ai Wang, Hongtao Li, Lin Tong, Haiyu Xu, Weina Zhang, Ziling Zeng, Sihong Liu, Wenjing Zong, Siqi Zhang, Siwei Tian, Huamin Zhang, Bing Li

“…Herbs with disputed heat/cold properties in ancient books (such as Pulsatilliae Radix and Menthae Herba) were predicted using recommended property probabilities. The proposed HPGCN model may have profound practical value and significance for elucidating the scientific mechanisms of herbal property theory and in herbal medicine development.…”

Postrema area syndrome in the context of systemic lupus erythematosus: Case report by Jose Ricardo Muñoz-Zúñiga, Andrea del Mar Tamayo-Delgado, Alberto Masaru Shinchi-Tanaka, Juan Camilo Márquez, Alex Echeverri-García, Santiago Lopez Garcia

“…Negative anti-aquaporin 4 antibodies ruled out neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD), leading to a probable diagnosis of APS associated with SLE. Conclusion: Given the patient's negative AQP4-IgG results, clinical profile, and medical history, we propose APS associated with SLE, marking the first reported case in Latin America.…”
