Baicalin induces apoptosis and autophagy in resistant human hepatocellular carcinoma cell line Bel-7402/5-FU cells via PI3K/AKT pathway by Fei Li, Zilin Lan, Weiwei Jiang, Jianheng Zhou, Jiumao Lin, Jinyan Zhao

“…Baicalin inhibited cell viability in both Bel-7402/5-FU and Bel-7402 ​cells, and baicalin increased sensitivity of Bel-7402/5-FU cells to 5-FU in time- and dose-dependent manners. Baicalin increased the accumulation of doxorubicin and rhodamine-123 in Bel-7402/5-FU cells and inhibited the protein expression of ABCG2, ABCB1, and ABCC1, associated with pump function. …”

Optimization in Finite Elements to Define the Friction Factor Through Ring Compression Tests by Thomas G. Santos, André Rosiak, Diego R. Alba, Diego P. Wermuth, Lirio Schaeffer

“…Using the FORGE NxT2.1 finite element software, an optimization procedure was carried out to reduce the computational cost, then simulations were performed by varying the values of the friction factor so that a cost function was minimized. The cost function for this optimization considers a relationship between the internal and external diameters of the specimens for the simulated and experimentally measured cases. …”

Profiling synaptic proteins identifies regulators of insulin secretion and lifespan. by Queelim Ch'ng, Derek Sieburth, Joshua M Kaplan

“…In neurons, presynaptic specializations are biochemically complex subcellular structures dedicated to neurotransmitter secretion. Activity-dependent changes in the abundance of presynaptic proteins are thought to endow synapses with different functional states; however, relatively little is known about the rules that govern changes in the composition of presynaptic terminals. …”

“…In the patient group, there was no significant difference in depression and anxiety levels between those who underwent surgery and those who did not, and between those who received RT and those who did not. Furthermore, depending on pituitary adenoma functionality [functional pituitary adenoma and non-functional pituitary adenoma], hormonal secretion type (growth hormone excess, prolactin hormone excess, cortisol hormone excess, etc.), and hormone replacement treatment. …”

Investigating Macular Tissue Integrity Index as a Novel Biomarker in Geographic Atrophy by Bethany M. Erb, MD, Elaine Botros, Thomas F. Saunders, OD, Anna-Maria Haas, MD, Rick Voland, PhD, Rachel Linderman, PhD, Amitha Domalpally, MD, PhD, Karl G. Csaky, MD

“…However, this metric typically lacks specificity for central macular involvement and structure–function relationships. We propose a targeted approach in monitoring GA progression within the central macula, highlighting the limited benefit of including GA expansion beyond the 3-mm perifoveal zone when analyzing visual function. …”

Porphyromonas gingivalis affects neutrophil pro-inflammatory activities by Agnieszka Zimny, Alicja Płonczyńska, Alicja Płonczyńska, Wiktor Jakubowski, Natalia Zubrzycka, Natalia Zubrzycka, Jan Potempa, Jan Potempa, Maja Sochalska

“…Although gingipains are the major virulence factor of the pathogen, their role in impairing apoptosis and immune cell function is not fully understood. To investigate the impact of gingipains on neutrophil viability and function, we conducted studies using murine HoxB8 neutrophils and primary human neutrophils infected with wild-type strains of Porphyromonas gingivalis (W83 and ATCC 33277), or a gingipains-null mutant with deleted gingipains encoding genes, or wild-type bacteria preincubated with specific gingipain inhibitors. …”
