    Abstract Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are an emerging but vital biomarker for cancer management. An efficient methodology for accurately quantifying CTCs remains challenging due to their rareness. Here, we develop a digital CTC detection strategy using partitioning instead of enrichment to quantify CTCs. By utilizing the characteristics of droplet microfluidics that can rapidly generate a large number of parallel independent reactors, combined with Poisson distribution, we realize the quantification of CTCs in the blood directly. The limit of detection of our digital CTCs quantification assay is five cells per 5 mL of whole blood. By simultaneously detecting multiple genetic mutations, our approach achieves highly sensitive and specific detection of CTCs in peripheral blood from NSCLC patients (AUC = 1). Our digital platform offers a potential approach and strategy for the quantification of CTCs, which could contribute to the advancement of cancer medical management.

    Abstract Massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems significantly outperform small-scale MIMO systems in terms of data rate, making them an enabling technology for next-generation wireless systems. However, the increased number of antennas increases the computational difficulty of data detection, necessitating more efficient detection techniques. This paper presents a detector based on joint deregularized and box-constrained dichotomous coordinate descent (BOXDCD) with iterations for rectangular m-ary quadrature amplitude modulation (M-QAM) symbols. Deregularization maximized the energy of the solution. With the box-constraint, the deregularization forces the solution to be close to the rectangular boundary set. The numerical results demonstrate that the proposed detector achieves a considerable performance gain compared to existing detection algorithms. The performance advantage increases with the system size and signal-to-noise ratio.

    Abstract Influenza A virus (IAV) poses a severe threat to the health of animals and humans. The genome of IAV consists of eight single-stranded negative-sense RNA segments, encoding ten essential proteins as well as certain accessory proteins. In the process of virus replication, amino acid substitutions continuously accumulate, and genetic reassortment between virus strains readily occurs. Due to this high genetic variability, new viruses that threaten animal and human health can emerge at any time. Therefore, the study on IAV has always been a focus of veterinary medicine and public health. The replication, pathogenesis, and transmission of IAV involve intricate interplay between the virus and host. On one hand, the entire replication cycle of IAV relies on numerous proviral host proteins that effectively allow the virus to adapt to its host and support its replication. On the other hand, some host proteins play restricting roles at different stages of the viral replication cycle. The mechanisms of interaction between viral proteins and host cellular proteins are currently receiving particular interest in IAV research. In this review, we briefly summarize the current advances in our understanding of the mechanisms by which host proteins affect virus replication, pathogenesis, or transmission by interacting with viral proteins. Such information about the interplay between IAV and host proteins could provide insights into how IAV causes disease and spreads, and might help support the development of antiviral drugs or therapeutic approaches.

    Abstract The glymphatic system plays a crucial role in maintaining optimal central nervous system (CNS) function by facilitating the removal of metabolic wastes. Aquaporin-4 (AQP4) protein, predominantly located on astrocyte end-feet, is a key pathway for metabolic waste excretion. β-Dystroglycan (β-DG) can anchor AQP4 protein to the end-feet membrane of astrocytes and can be cleaved by matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9 protein. Studies have demonstrated that hyperglycemia upregulates MMP-9 expression in the nervous system, leading to neuropathic pain. Ginkgolide B (GB) exerts an inhibitory effect on the MMP-9 protein. In this study, we investigated whether inhibition of MMP-9-mediated β-DG cleavage by GB is involved in the regulation of AQP4 polarity within the glymphatic system in painful diabetic neuropathy (PDN) and exerts neuroprotective effects. The PDN model was established by injecting streptozotocin (STZ). Functional changes in the glymphatic system were observed using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The paw withdrawal threshold (PWT) was measured to assess mechanical allodynia. The protein expressions of MMP-9, β-DG, and AQP4 were detected by Western blotting and immunofluorescence. Our findings revealed significant decreases in the efficiency of contrast agent clearance within the spinal glymphatic system of the rats, accompanied by decreased PWT, increased MMP-9 protein expression, decreased β-DG protein expression, and loss of AQP4 polarity. Notably, GB treatment demonstrated the capacity to ameliorate spinal cord glymphatic function by modulating AQP4 polarity through MMP-9 inhibition, offering a promising therapeutic avenue for PDN.

    Abstract Catalytic transfer hydrogenation (CTH) has recently emerged as a highly attractive approach for achieving biomass-based hydrogenation due to its avoidance of high-pressure fossil-derived H₂ and potentially reduced process costs. As numerous studies relating to the CTH of furfural (FF) have been reported recently, it is quite urgent to systematically review the recent advances, especially those in which excellent catalytic performance is achieved over simple solid acid–base catalysts. In this review, recent advances relating to the CTH of FF over heterogeneous catalysts, including metal catalysts and solid acid–base catalysts, are extensively summarized. Some potential research trends for the design of more effective catalysts and the realization of the practical industrial production of furfuryl alcohol (FFA) via CTH are also proposed. As acidic or basic sites always play an important role during biomass conversion, the great progress made in the area of CTH also provides great potential for other reactions, especially reductive functionalization.

    Abstract Abstract Objective This study aims to investigate the relationship between abnormal vaginal microecology and human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, as well as the squamous intraepithelial lesions (SIL) progression. Methods A total of 383 patients diagnosed with HPV infection in our hospital between March 2017 and February 2022 were selected as the experimental group. In addition, several volunteers (n = 898) who underwent physical examination during the same period were randomly selected as the control group. Subsequently, we conducted several investigations, such as HPV detection and gene typing, examined vaginal microecological imbalances, and performed cytological examinations to analyze the correlation between microecological changes, different types of HPV infection, and SIL progression. Results HPV detection primarily included single and high-risk types of HPV infections. Moreover, significant disparities in the vaginal microecological environment between patients with persistent HPV infection and the control group, as well as patients with low-grade and high-grade SIL (LSIL and HSIL), were observed. The regression analysis revealed a correlation between LSIL and microflora density, diversity, bacteriological vaginosis (BV), vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC), trichomonas vaginalis (TV), sialidase, as well as Lactobacillus. In addition, we identified an association between HSIL and pH, flora density, diversity, BV, VVC, candida vaginitis (CV), leukocyte esterase, catalase, and Lactobacillus levels. Conclusion These findings revealed a significant association between abnormal vaginal microecology and both HPV infection and the SIL progression.
