    Abstract The subtle differences in the chemical structures of double-stranded (ds) RNA and DNA lead to significant variations in their biological roles and medical implications, largely due to their distinct biophysical properties, such as bending stiffness. Although it is well known that A-form dsRNA is stiffer than B-form dsDNA under physiological salt conditions, the underlying cause of this difference remains unclear. In this study, we employ high-precision magnetic-tweezer experiments along with molecular dynamics simulations and reveal that the relative bending stiffness between dsRNA and dsDNA is primarily determined by the structure- and salt-concentration-dependent ion distribution around their helical structures. At near-physiological salt conditions, dsRNA shows a sparser ion distribution surrounding its phosphate groups compared to dsDNA, causing its greater stiffness. However, at very high monovalent salt concentrations, phosphate groups in both dsRNA and dsDNA become fully neutralized by excess ions, resulting in a similar intrinsic bending persistence length of approximately 39 nm. This similarity in intrinsic bending stiffness of dsRNA and dsDNA is coupled to the analogous fluctuations in their total groove widths and further coupled to the similar fluctuation of base-pair inclination, despite their distinct A-form and B-form helical structures.

    Abstract Cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is a complex pathophysiological process that can lead to neurological function damage and the formation of cerebral infarction. The p38 MAPK pathway has attracted considerable attention in cerebral I/R injury (IRI), but little research has been carried out on its direct role in vivo. In this study, to observe the effects of p38 MAPK endogenous inhibition on cerebral IRI, p38 heterozygous knockdown (p38

    Abstract Restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM) is a rare childhood cardiomyopathy that is a challenging diagnostic problem for clinicians. We describe a case of an 8-year-old girl with a 2-year history of shortness of breath on exertion. Electrocardiogram and echocardiography showed biatrial enlargement, while cardiac magnetic resonance showed biatrial dilation and normal pericardial thickness. Left and right heart catheterization revealed a left ventricular (LV) end-diastolic pressure (EDP) of 20 mmHg, right ventricular (RV) EDP of 13 mmHg, and pulmonary arterial systolic pressure of 51 mmHg. LV and RV pressure traces showed that LV and RV pressures moved concordantly with respiration, and that the systolic area index was 0.98. Cardiac catheterization data were therefore supportive of RCM. Next-generation sequencing identified a heterozygous variant of the troponin I gene (

    Abstract Purpose: We evaluated the value of copy number variation sequencing (CNV-seq) and quantitative fluorescence (QF)-PCR for analyzing chromosomal abnormalities (CA) in spontaneous abortion specimens.
    Methods: A total of 650 products of conception (POCs) were collected from spontaneous abortion between April 2018 and May 2020. CNV-seq and QF-PCR were performed to determine the characteristics and frequencies of copy number variants (CNVs) with clinical significance. The clinical features of the patients were recorded.
    Results: Clinically significant chromosomal abnormalities were identified in 355 (54.6%) POCs, of which 217 (33.4%) were autosomal trisomies, 42(6.5%) were chromosomal monosomies and 40 (6.2%) were pathogenic CNVs (pCNVs). Chromosomal trisomy occurs mainly on chromosomes 15, 16, 18, 21and 22. Monosomy X was not associated with the maternal or gestational age. The frequency of chromosomal abnormalities in miscarriages from women with a normal live birth history was 55.3%; it was 54.4% from women without a normal live birth history (P > 0.05). There were no significant differences among women without, with 1, and with ≥ 2 previous miscarriages regarding the rate of chromosomal abnormalities (P > 0.05); CNVs were less frequently detected in women with advanced maternal age than in women aged ≤ 29 and 30-34 years (P < 0.05).
    Conclusion: Chromosomal abnormalities are the most common cause of pregnancy loss, and maternal and gestational ages are strongly associated with fetal autosomal trisomy aberrations. Embryo chromosomal examination is recommended regardless of the gestational age, modes of conception or previous abortion status.

    Abstract Kartagener's syndrome is a subgroup of primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD), a genetically heterogeneous condition characterised by sinusitis, bronchiectasis, and situs in versus. Genetic testing has importance for their diagnosis. Here, we report a chinese patient with Kartagener's syndrome. Transthoracic echocardiography showed severely elevated right ventricular systolic pressure. Right heart catheterisation demonstrated a pre-capillary pulmonary hypertension. Whole-exome sequencing indicated that she had a novel homozygous nonsense mutation, c.2845C > T, p.Gln949*, in exon 18 of CCDC40 and a heterozygotic mutation, c.73G > A, p.Ala25Thr, in exon 1 of DNAH11. She was diagnosed as Kartagener's syndrome with pulmonary hypertension. Her symptoms improved significantly by treatment of antibiotics, expectorant drugs, bronchodilators, and oxygen therapy treatment. Our findings extend the mutation spectrum of CCDC40 gene related Kartagener's syndrome, which is very important for gene diagnosis of the disease.
