    Abstract Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is a leading cause of end-stage renal disease without early diagnostic and specific therapeutic approaches. Podocyte apoptosis and loss play important roles in the pathological process of DKD. This study aimed to explore whether urinary exosomes from type 2 diabetes patients with DKD could induce podocyte apoptosis and the underlying pathological mechanisms. The exosomes were isolated from the urine samples of patients with DKD (DKD-Exo). Later, they were taken up and internalized by MPC5 cells. MPC5 cells were co-cultured with DKD-Exo (45 μg/ml) for 24 h in the presence or absence of microRNA-145-5p (miR-145-5p) inhibitor, fasudil and pcDNA-Srgap2 transfection. MiR-145-5p and Srgap2 expression was evaluated using real-time quantitative PCR. The protein levels of Srgap2, Bcl-2, Bax, and cleaved caspase-3, as well as ROCK activity were determined using Western blotting. Cell apoptosis was measured using flow cytometry and the TUNEL assay. miR-145-5p expression in MPC5 cells exposed to DKD-Exo was markedly upregulated. miR-145-5p negatively regulated Srgap2 levels. Exposure of MPC5 cells to DKD-Exo reduced Srgap2 expression and activated ROCK, which was partly reversed by the presence of the miR-145-5p inhibitor or Srgap2 overexpression. The apoptosis of MPC5 cells exposed to DKD-Exo increased significantly, which was counteracted by the addition of the miR-145-5p inhibitor and fasudil. The results showed that urinary exosomal miR-145-5p from patients with DKD induced podocyte apoptosis by inhibiting Srgap2 and activating the RhoA/ROCK pathway, suggesting that urinary exosomal miR-145-5p is involved in the pathological process of DKD and could become a noninvasive diagnostic biomarker for DKD.

    Abstract Most preservatives are irritating and can easily induce skin sensitivities. Therefore, both domestic and international regulations impose clear restrictions on the use of preservatives in cosmetics. Herein, gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (GC-MS/MS) was employed to simultaneously analyze the levels of 15 preservative allergens in cosmetics. Further, a precise identification approach based on a two-column retention index and mass spectrometry matching degree was developed. Cosmetic samples were extracted via acetonitrile vortex ultrasound extraction and then dehydrated with anhydrous MgSO

    Abstract Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is a primary cause for end-stage renal disease, but no specific therapeutic approaches exist. Exosomal miRNAs, a key functional cargo of nanovesicles, play crucial roles in the pathophysiological processes of DKD. Exosomal miRNAs are involved in cell-to-cell transfer of biological information, mediating nephritic inflammation, oxidative stress, apoptosis, autophagy, epithelial-mesenchymal transition and fibrosis. Circulating exosomal miRNAs derived from urine or serum might function as noninvasive prognostic biomarkers for DKD. Exosomal miRNAs from stem cells have been reported to exert beneficial effects on diabetic kidneys, which suggests that these exosomes might function as potential nanotherapy tools for treating DKD. In this review, we have summarized recent studies based on the association between exosomal miRNAs and DKD.

    Abstract The structural stability of silt foundations, particularly sensitive to moisture content, can be severely compromised by recurring wetting and drying processes. This not only threatens the foundational integrity but also raises grave concerns about the long-term safety of major civil engineering endeavors. Addressing this critical issue, our study delves into the transformative effects of reclaimed polyester fiber on subgrade silt exposed to such environmental stressors. Through rigorous wet-dry cycle tests on this enhanced soil, we evaluate shifts in shear strength across varying confining pressures. We also dissect the interplay between average pore diameter, particle distribution, and morphology in influencing the soil's microstructural responses to these cycles. A detailed analysis traces the structural damage timeline in the treated soil, elucidating the intertwined micro-macro dynamics driving strength reduction. Key discoveries indicate a notably non-linear trajectory of shear strength degradation, marked by distinct phases of rapid, subdued, and stabilized strength attrition. Alterations within the micropores induce a rise in both their count and size, ultimately diminishing the total volume proportion of the reinforced soil. Intriguingly, particle distribution is directly tied to the wet-dry cycle frequency, while the fractal dimension of soil particles consistently wanes. This research identifies cement hydrolysis and pore expansion as the dominant culprits behind the observed macroscopic strength degradation due to incessant wet-dry cycles. These revelations hold profound implications for risk management and infrastructural strategizing in areas dominated by silt foundations.

    Abstract Introduction: The research was an attempt to explore the potential impact of allicin on lipid peroxidation and oxidative stress in rats diagnosed with chronic kidney disease (CKD), and to determine its underlying mechanism.
    Methods: Sixty rats were randomly divided into sham-operated, modelling, and allicin low, medium, and high dose groups. The histopathological structure of the kidney was observed in each group. Biochemical measurements were conducted to assess kidney function, including serum creatinine (Scr) and blood urea nitrogen (BUN), and 24-hour urine protein quantification. Levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD), reactive oxidative species (ROS), and reduced glutathione (GSH) in kidney tissue were measured, and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and NF (nuclear factor) -κB protein levels were detected by western blotting.
    Results: They showed that allicin improved the pathological structure of renal tissue and protected renal function by reducing oxidative stress and lipid peroxidation via targeting the ROS/ MAPK/NF-κB pathway. Allicin increased SOD and GSH levels, while decreasing Scr, MDA, ROS, BUN, and the amount of protein excreted in urine over a 24-hour in medium and high dose groups. MAPK and NF-κB protein levels in medium and high dose allicin groups were lower than the modelling group.
    Conclusion: Based on the results, it can be inferred that allicin may safeguard renal function in rats with CKD and has the potential to serve as a treatment for kidney ailments.  DOI: 10.52547/ijkd.7496.
