Genomic variation, environmental adaptation and feralization in ramie, an ancient fiber crop.

Feralization is an important evolutionary process, but the mechanisms behind it remain poorly understood. Here, we use the ancient fiber crop, ramie (Boehmeria nivea (L.) Gaudich.) as a model to investigate genomic changes associated with both domestication and fertilization. We first produced a chromosome-scale de novo genome assembly of feral ramie and investigated structural variations between feral and domesticated ramie genomes. Next, 915 accessions from 20 countries were gathered, comprising cultivars, major landraces, feral populations and wild progenitor. Based on whole genome resequencing of these accessions, the most comprehensive ramie genomic variation map to date was constructed. Phylogenetic, demographic, and admixture signal detection analyses indicate that feral ramie is of exoferal or exo-endo origin, i.e., descended from hybridization between domesticated ramie and wild progenitor or ancient landraces. Feral ramie has greater genetic diversity than wild or domesticated ramie, and genomic regions affected by natural selection during feralization are different from those under selection during domestication. Ecological analyses showed that feral and domesticated ramie have similar ecological niches which are substantially different from the niche of the wild progenitor, and three environmental variables were associated with habitat-specific adaptation in feral ramie. Our findings advance our understanding of feralization, providing a scientific basis for the excavation of new crop germplasm resources and offering novel insights into the evolution of feralization in nature.

Sensitive electrochemical flow injection analysis of H2O2 released from cells with a pass-through mode.

Conventional plate electrodes were commonly used in electrochemical flow injection analysis and only part of molecules diffused to the plane of electrodes could be detected, which would limit the performance of electrochemical detection. In this study, a low-cost native stainless steel wire mesh (SSWM) electrode was integrated into a 3D-printed device for electrochemical flow injection analysis with a pass-through mode, which is different compared with previous flow-through mode. This strategy was applied for sensitive analysis of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) released from cells. Under the optimal conditions (the applied potentials, the flow rate and the sample volume), the device exhibits high sensitivity toward H2O2. Linear relationships could be achieved between electrochemical responses and the concentration of H2O2 ranging from 1 nM to 1 mM. The excellent analytical performance of the SSWM-based device could be attributed to the pass-through mode based on the mesh microstructure and intrinsic catalytic properties for H2O2 by stainless steel. This approach could be further successfully extended for screening of H2O2 released from HeLa cells with electrochemical responses linear to the number of cells in a range of 3 - 1.35 × 104 cells with an injection volume of 30 µL. This study revealed the potential of mesh electrodes in electrochemical flow injection analysis for cellular function and pathology and its possible extension in cell counting and on-line analysis.

Bridging Ionic Current Rectification and Resistive-Pulse Sensing for Reliable Wide-Linearity Detection.

As two mainstream ionic detection techniques, ionic current rectification (ICR) suffers from large fluctuations in trace level detection, while resistive-pulse sensing (RPS) encounters easy clogs in high-concentration detection. By rationally matching the nanopore size with the DNA tetrahedron (TDN), this work bridges the two techniques to achieve reliable detection with wide linearity. As a representative analyte, miRNA-10b could specifically combine with and release TDN from the interior wall, which thus induced the simultaneous generation of distinct ICR and RPS signals. The ICR signals could be attributed to the balance between the effective orifice and surface charge density of the inner wall, while the RPS signals were induced by the complex of miRNA-10b and TDN passing through the nanopore. Such an operation contributed to a wide detection range of 1 fM-1 nM with a good linearity. The feasibility of this method is also validated in single-cell and real plasma detection.

Classification and hemodynamic characteristics of delayed intracerebral hemorrhage following stent-assisted coil embolism in unruptured intracranial aneurysms.

Background and objective: Stent-assisted coil (SAC) embolization is a commonly used endovascular treatment for unruptured intracranial aneurysms (UIAs) but can be associated with symptomatic delayed intracerebral hemorrhage (DICH). Our study aimed to investigate the hemodynamic risk factors contributing to DICH following SAC embolization and to establish a classification for DICH predicated on hemodynamic profiles. Methods: This retrospective study included patients with UIAs located in the internal carotid artery (ICA) treated with SAC embolization at our institution from January 2021 to January 2022. We focused on eight patients who developed postoperative DICH and matched them with sixteen control patients without DICH. Using computational fluid dynamics, we evaluated the hemodynamic changes in distal arteries [terminal ICA, the anterior cerebral artery (ACA), and middle cerebral artery (MCA)] pre-and post-embolization. We distinguished DICH-related arteries from unrelated ones (ACA or MCA) and compared their hemodynamic alterations. An imbalance index, quantifying the differential in flow velocity changes between ACA and MCA post-embolization, was employed to gauge the flow distribution in distal arteries was used to assess distal arterial flow distribution. Results: We identified two types of DICH based on postoperative flow alterations. In type 1, there was a significant lower in the mean velocity increase rate of the DICH-related artery compared to the unrelated artery (-47.25 ± 3.88% vs. 42.85 ± 3.03%; p < 0.001), whereas, in type 2, there was a notable higher (110.58 ± 9.42% vs. 17.60 ± 4.69%; p < 0.001). Both DICH types demonstrated a higher imbalance index than the control group, suggesting an association between altered distal arterial blood flow distribution and DICH occurrence. Conclusion: DICH in SAC-treated UIAs can manifest as either a lower (type 1) or higher (type 2) in the rate of velocity in DICH-related arteries. An imbalance in distal arterial blood flow distribution appears to be a significant factor in DICH development.

A Bifunctional Wearable Sensor Based on a Nanoporous Membrane for Simultaneous Detection of Sweat Lactate and Temperature.

Wearable sensors for non-invasive, real-time detection of sweat lactate have far-reaching implications in the fields of health care and exercise physiological responses. Here, we propose a wearable electrochemical sensor with gold nanoelectrode arrays fabricated on the nanoporous polycarbonate (PC) membrane by encapsulating lactate oxidase (LOx) in chitosan (CS) hydrogel for detecting body temperature and sweat lactate concurrently. Flexible gold nanoporous electrodes not only enhance electrode area but also offer a nanoconfined space to accelerate the catalytic reaction of LOx and control substrate concentration on the surface of LOx to decrease substrate inhibition. The proposed sensor has a long durability of 13 days and better selectivity for the detection of sweat lactate over a wide linear range (0.01-35 mM) with a low detection limit (0.144 µM). Furthermore, temperature-dependent transmembrane currents passing through the sensor are used to estimate body temperature. We then use multiple linear regression to adjust the effect of temperature on lactate detection and succeed in monitoring lactate molecules in sweat and body temperature during exercise.

An efficient intermolecular annulation of indazole aldehydes with propargylic amines has been developed for the synthesis of pyrazinoindazoles under catalyst- and additive-free conditions. This straightforward methodology was found to feature a wide substrate scope, high atom economy and environmental advantages. The bioactivity results of these new pyrazino[1,2-b]indazoles showed that some of them exhibited significant antifungal activity.

A CT-based Deep Learning Radiomics Nomogram for the Prediction of EGFR Mutation Status in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma.

RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: Accurately assessing epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation status in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) patients is crucial for prognosis and treatment selection. This study aimed to construct and validate a contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT)-based deep learning radiomics nomogram (DLRN) to predict EGFR mutation status of HNSCC. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 300 HNSCC patients who underwent CECT scans were enrolled in this study. Participants from two hospitals were separated into a training set (n = 200, 56 EGFR-negative and 144 EGFR-positive) from one hospital and an external test set from the other hospital (n = 100, 37 EGFR-negative and 63 EGFR-positive). The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator method was used to select the key features from CECT-based manually extracted radiomics (MER) features and features automatically extracted using a deep learning model (DL, extracted using a GoogLeNet model). The selected independent clinical factors, MER features, and DL features were then combined to construct a DLRN. The DLRN's performance was evaluated using receiver operating characteristics curves. RESULTS: Five MER and six DL features were finally chosen. The DLRN, which includes "gender" and "necrotic areas," along with the selected features, predicted EGFR mutation status of HNSCC (EGFR-negative vs. positive) well in both the training (area under the curve [AUC], 0.901) and test (AUC, 0.875) sets. CONCLUSION: A DLRN using CECT was built to predict EGFR mutation in HNSCC. The model showed high predictive ability and may aid in treatment selection and patient prognosis.

An Ultrasensitive and Efficient microRNA Nanosensor Empowered by the CRISPR/Cas Confined in a Nanopore.

This work presents a clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR)/Cas-nanopipette nano-electrochemistry (Cas = CRISPR-associated proteins) capable of ultrasensitive microRNA detection. Nanoconfinement of the CRISPR/Cas13a within a nanopipette leads to a high catalytic efficacy of ca. 169 times higher than that in bulk electrolyte, contributing to the amplified electrochemical responses. CRISPR/Cas13a-enabled detection of representative microRNA-25 achieves a low limit of detection down to 10 aM. Practical application of this method is further demonstrated for single-cell and real human serum detection. Its general applicability is validated by addressing microRNA-141 and the SARS-CoV-2 RNA gene fragment. This work introduces a new CRISPR/Cas-empowered nanotechnology for ultrasensitive nano-electrochemistry and bioanalysis.

Hypoxia Affects Mitochondrial Stress and Facilitates Tumor Metastasis of Colorectal Cancer Through Slug SUMOylation.

BACKGROUND: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a malignant tumor. Slug has been found to display a key role in diversified cancers, but its relevant regulatory mechanisms in CRC development are not fully explored. OBJECTIVE: Hence, exploring the function and regulatory mechanisms of Slug is critical for the treatment of CRC. METHODS: Protein expressions of Slug, N-cadherin, E-cadherin, Snail, HIF-1α, SUMO1, Drp1, Opa1, Mfn1/2, PGC-1α, NRF1, and TFAM were measured through western blot. To evaluate the protein expression of Slug and SUMO-1, an immunofluorescence assay was used. Cell migration ability was tested through transwell assay. The SUMOylation of Slug was examined through CO-IP assay. RESULTS: Slug displayed higher expression and facilitated tumor metastasis in CRC. In addition, hypoxia treatment was discovered to upregulate HIF-1α, Slug, and SUMO-1 levels, as well as induce Slug SUMOylation. Slug SUMOylation markedly affected mitochondrial biosynthesis, fusion, and mitogen-related protein expression levels to trigger mitochondrial stress. Additionally, the induced mitochondrial stress by hypoxia could be rescued by Slug inhibition and TAK-981 treatment. CONCLUSION: Our study expounded that hypoxia affects mitochondrial stress and facilitates tumor metastasis of CRC through Slug SUMOylation.

Vibration-enhanced disposable electroanalytical platform for selective analysis of tryptophan in fruits based on molecular imprinting.

Although electrochemical detection based on molecular imprinting polymers (MIP) could dramatically improve the selectivity, the procedure is time-consuming because of the essential incubation step. In addition, current MIP electrochemical detections were not suitable for analysis of microliter-level sample solutions, limiting their applications for real samples. This investigation aims at applying vibration to enhance efficiency of MIP electrochemical detection of 20 µL sample solutions. MIP analysis of Tryptophan (Trp) was used as the model with disposable MIP electrodes prepared by electrochemical polymerization of o-phenylenediamine on carbon ink coated on stainless steel sheets. The MIP electrode was integrated in a 3D-printed analytical device for vibration-enhanced electrochemical detection of Trp. Our results showed that this vibration-enhanced strategy could significantly increase electrochemical responses of Trp at the same incubation time. Such improvement might be attributed to the enhanced mass transfer at the surface of the working electrode brought by vibration. It needs to be emphasized that this strategy is suitable for analysis of sample solutions with the volume of microliters, which is superior to normal stirring in MIP electrochemical detection. Our approach could be successfully utilized for differentiation of Trp in different fruits, opening more opportunities for MIP electrochemical detection of real samples. The enhanced efficiency by vibration could pave foundation for extensive practical MIP detection of sample solutions at the level of microliters.

Perylenediimide regioisomers with tunable physicochemical and charge-transport properties.

Two perylenediimide (PDI) regioisomers with the central core substituted at the ortho (Y-αPDI) and bay (Y-ßPDI) areas of the PDIs were successfully prepared. The regioisomeric effects on the physicochemical and charge-transport properties were thoroughly investigated. The results unravel that Y-ßPDI shows ambipolar transport with higher mobilities compared to its α-counterpart, which is due to its favourable molecular geometry, stronger intermolecular interaction and improved electron-withdrawing ability.

An In-Situ Cyanidation Strategy To Access Tetracyanodiacenaphthoanthracene Diimides with High Electron Mobilities Exceeding 10†cm2 †V-1 s-1.

A family of novel highly π-extended tetracyano-substituted acene diimides, named as tetracyanodiacenaphthoanthracene diimides (TCDADIs), have been synthesized using a facile four-fold Knoevenagel condensation strategy. Unlike conventional cyano substitution reactions, our approach enables access to a large π-conjugated backbone with the in-situ formation of four cyano substitutents at room temperature while avoiding extra cyano-functionalization reactions. TCDADIs decorated with different N-alkyl substituents present good solubility, near-coplanar backbones, good crystallinity, and low-lying lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energies of -4.33 eV, all of which contribute to desirable electron-transport performance when applied in organic field-effect transistors (OFET). The highest electron mobility of an OFET based on a 2-hexyldecyl-substituted TCDADI single crystal reaches 12.6 cm2  V-1 s-1 , which is not only among the highest values for the reported n-type organic semiconductor materials (OSMs) but also exceeds that of most n-type OSMs decorated with imide units.

Virtual simulation with AneuShape™ software for microcatheter shaping in intracranial aneurysm coiling: a validation study.

Background: The shaping of an accurate and stable microcatheter plays a vital role in the successful embolization of intracranial aneurysms. Our study aimed to investigate the application and the role of AneuShape™ software in microcatheter shaping for intracranial aneurysm embolization. Methods: From January 2021 to June 2022, 105 patients with single unruptured intracranial aneurysms were retrospectively analyzed with or without AneuShape™ software to assist in microcatheter shaping. The rates of microcatheter accessibility, accurate positioning, and stability for shaping were analyzed. During the operation, fluoroscopy duration, radiation dose, immediate postoperative angiography, and procedure-related complications were evaluated. Results: Compared to the manual group, aneurysm-coiling procedures involving the AneuShape™ software exhibited superior results. The use of the software resulted in a lower rate of reshaping microcatheters (21.82 vs. 44.00%, p = 0.015) and higher rates of accessibility (81.82 vs. 58.00%, p = 0.008), better positioning (85.45 vs. 64.00%, p = 0.011), and higher stability (83.64 vs. 62.00%, p = 0.012). The software group also required more coils for both small (<7 mm) and large (≥7 mm) aneurysms compared to the manual group (3.50 ± 0.19 vs. 2.78 ± 0.11, p = 0.008 and 8.22 ± 0.36 vs. 6.00 ± 1.00, p = 0.081, respectively). In addition, the software group achieved better complete or approximately complete aneurysm obliteration (87.27 vs. 66.00%, p = 0.010) and had a lower procedure-related complication rate (3.60 vs. 12.00%, p = 0.107). Without this software, the operation had a longer intervention duration (34.31 ± 6.51 vs. 23.87 ± 6.98 min, p < 0.001) and a higher radiation dose (750.50 ± 177.81 vs. 563.53 ± 195.46 mGy, p < 0.001). Conclusions: Software-based microcatheter shaping techniques can assist in the precise shaping of microcatheters, reduce operating time and radiation dose, improve embolization density, and facilitate more stable and efficient intracranial aneurysm embolization.

Janus Metal-Organic Framework Membranes Boosting the Osmotic Energy Harvesting.

The unique ion-transport properties in nanoconfined pores enable nanofluidic devices with great potential in harvesting osmotic energy. The energy conversion performance could be significantly improved by the precise regulation of the "permeability-selectivity" trade-off and the ion concentration polarization effect. Here, we take the advantage of electrodeposition technique to fabricate a Janus metal-organic framework (J-MOF) membrane that possesses rapid ion-transport capability and impeccable ion selectivity. The asymmetric structure and asymmetric surface charge distribution of the J-MOF device can suppress the ion concentration polarization effect and enhance the ion charge separation, exhibiting an improved energy harvesting performance. An output power density of 3.44 W/m2 has been achieved with the J-MOF membrane at a 1000-fold concentration gradient. This work provides a new strategy for fabricating high-performance energy-harvesting devices.

Construction and Evaluation of Zeolitic Imidazolate Framework-Encapsulated Hemoglobin Microparticles as Oxygen Carriers.

Artificial oxygen carriers, such as favorably hemoglobin-based oxygen carriers, have received considerable attention due to some drawbacks of human donor blood. Among all oxygen carriers, the metal organic framework (MOF) exhibits excellent oxygen-carrying capacity due to its good encapsulation efficiency and competitive biocompatibility. Recently, zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs) with unique structure have attracted much attention due to their outstanding solvothermal stability. Notably, ZIF-8, the prototypical ZIF, has been utilized to load hemoglobin (Hb) as a potential blood substitute. In this work, another ZIF material, which possesses a high oxygen binding/release capability, suitable safety profile, high stability, and efficiency as a potential oxygen carrier, was used to encapsulate Hb in an environment-friendly condition.

Rational design of mesoporous chiral MOFs as reactive pockets in nanochannels for enzyme-free identification of monosaccharide enantiomers.

Monosaccharides play significant roles in daily metabolism in living organisms. Although various devices have been constructed for monosaccharide identification, most rely on the specificity of the natural enzyme. Herein, inspired by natural ionic channels, an asymmetrical MOF-in-nanochannel architecture is developed to discriminate monosaccharide enantiomers based on cascade reactions by combining oxidase-mimicking and Fenton-like catalysis in homochiral mesoporous CuMOF pockets. The identification performance is remarkably enhanced by the increased oxidase-mimicking activity of Au nanoparticles under a local surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) excitation. The apparent steady-state kinetic parameters and nano-fluidic simulation indicate that the different affinities induced by Au-LSPR excitation and the confinement effect from MOF pockets precipitate the high chiral sensitivity. This study offers a promising strategy for designing an enantiomer discrimination device and helps to gain insight into the origin of stereoselectivity in a natural enzyme.

The establishment of plants following long-distance dispersal.

Long-distance dispersal (LDD) beyond the range of a species is an important driver of ecological and evolutionary patterns, but insufficient attention has been given to postdispersal establishment. In this review, we summarize current knowledge of the post-LDD establishment phase in plant colonization, identify six key determinants of establishment success, develop a general quantitative framework for post-LDD establishment, and address the major challenges and opportunities in future research. These include improving detection and understanding of LDD using novel approaches, investigating mechanisms determining post-LDD establishment success using mechanistic modeling and inference, and comparison of establishment between past and present. By addressing current knowledge gaps, we aim to further our understanding of how LDD affects plant distributions, and the long-term consequences of LDD events.

A CT-Based Deep Learning Radiomics Nomogram to Predict Histological Grades of Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma.

RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: Accurate pretreatment assessment of histological differentiation grade of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is crucial for prognosis evaluation. This study aimed to construct and validate a contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT)-based deep learning radiomics nomogram (DLRN) to predict histological differentiation grades of HNSCC. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 204 patients with HNSCC who underwent CECT scans were enrolled in this study. The participants recruited from two hospitals were split into a training set (n=124, 74 well/moderately differentiated and 50 poorly differentiated) of patients from one hospital and an external test set of patients from the other hospital (n=80, 49 well/moderately differentiated and 31 poorly differentiated). CECT-based manually-extracted radiomics (MER) features and deep learning (DL) features were extracted and selected. The selected MER features and DL features were then combined to construct a DLRN via multivariate logistic regression. The predictive performance of the DLRN was assessed using ROCs and decision curve analysis (DCA). RESULTS: Three MER features and seven DL features were finally selected. The DLRN incorporating the selected MER and DL features showed good predictive value for the histological differentiation grades of HNSCC (well/moderately differentiated vs. poorly differentiated) in both the training (AUC, 0.878) and test (AUC, 0.822) sets. DCA demonstrated that the DLRN was clinically useful for predicting histological differentiation grades of HNSCC. CONCLUSION: A CECT-based DLRN was constructed to predict histological differentiation grades of HNSCC. The DLRN showed good predictive efficacy and might be useful for prognostic evaluation of patients with HNSCC.

CT radiomics nomogram for prediction of the Ki-67 index in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.

OBJECTIVES: To construct and validate a contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT)-based radiomics nomogram to predict Ki-67 expression level in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). METHODS: A total of 217 patients with HNSCC who underwent CECT scans and immunohistochemical examination of their Ki-67 index were enrolled in this study. The patients were divided into a training set (n = 140; Ki-67: ≥ 50% [n = 72] and < 50% [n = 68]) and an external test set (n = 77; Ki-67: ≥ 50% [n = 38] and < 50% [n = 39]). The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator method was used to select key features for a CECT-image-based radiomics signature and a radiomics score (Rad-score) was calculated. A clinical model was established using clinical data and CT findings. The independent clinical factors and Rad-score were then combined to construct a radiomics nomogram. The performance characteristics of the Rad-score, clinical model, and nomogram were assessed using ROCs and decision curve analysis. RESULTS: Twenty features were finally selected to construct the Rad-score. The radiomics nomogram incorporating the Rad-score, low histological grade, and lymphatic spread showed higher predictive value for the Ki-67 index (≥ 50% vs. < 50%) than the clinical model on both the training (AUC, 0.919 vs. 0.648, p < 0.001) and test (AUC, 0.832 vs. 0.685, p = 0.030) sets. Decision curve analysis demonstrated that the radiomics nomogram was more clinically useful than the clinical model. CONCLUSIONS: A CECT-based radiomics nomogram was constructed to predict the expression of Ki-67 in HNSCC. This model showed favorable predictive efficacy and might be useful for prognostic evaluation and clinical decision-making in patients with HNSCC. KEY POINTS: • Accurate pre-treatment prediction of Ki-67 index in HNSCC is crucial. • A CECT-based radiomics nomogram showed favorable predictive efficacy in estimation of Ki-67 expression status in HNSCC patients.

Anti-infectious pneumonia target discovery and molecular mechanism study of Jingfang Granules / 中国中药杂志

This study aimed to identify the direct pharmacological targets of Jingfang Granules in treating infectious pneumonia via "target fishing" strategy. Moreover, the molecular mechanism of Jingfang Granules in treating infectious pneumonia was also investigated based on target-related pharmacological signaling pathways. First, the Jingfang Granules extract-bound magnetic nanoparticles were prepared, which were incubated with lipopolysaccharide(LPS)-induced mouse pneumonia tissue lysates. The captured proteins were analyzed by high-resolution mass spectrometry(HRMS), and the target groups with specific binding to the Jingfang Granules extract were screened out. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG) enrichment analysis was used to identify the target protein-associated signaling pathways. On this basis, the LPS-induced mouse model of infectious pneumonia was established. The possible biological functions of target proteins were verified by hematoxylin-eosin(HE) staining and immunohistochemical assay. A total of 186 Jingfang Granules-specific binding proteins were identified from lung tissues. KEGG pathway enrichment analysis showed that the target protein-associated signaling pathways mainly included Salmonella infection, vascular and pulmonary epithelial adherens junction, ribosomal viral replication, viral endocytosis, and fatty acid degradation. The target functions of Jingfang Granules were related to pulmonary inflammation and immunity, pulmonary energy metabolism, pulmonary microcirculation, and viral infection. Based on the in vivo inflammation model, Jingfang Granules significantly improved the alveolar structure of the LPS-induced mouse model of infectious pneumonia and down-regulated the expressions of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α) and interleukin-6(IL-6). Meanwhile, Jingfang Gra-nules significantly up-regulated the expressions of key proteins of mitochondrial function COX Ⅳ and ATP, microcirculation-related proteins CD31 and Occludin, and proteins associated with viral infection DDX21 and DDX3. These results suggest that Jingfang Gra-nules can inhibit lung inflammation, improve lung energy metabolism and pulmonary microcirculation, resist virus infection, thus playing a protective role in the lung. This study systematically explains the molecular mechanism of Jingfang Granules in the treatment of respiratory inflammation from the perspective of target-signaling pathway-pharmacological efficacy, thereby providing key information for clinical rational use of Jingfang Granules and expanding potential pharmacological application.
