This review examines the complex mechanisms through which THSWD influences critical pathways, including nuclear factor kappa-B(NF-κB), phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase(PI3K)/serine-threonine kinase(AKT), Toll-like receptor 4(TLR4), mitogen-activated protein kinase(MAPK), and mammalian target of rapamycin(mTOR), that play pivotal roles in AS pathogenesis. By synthesizing experimental evidence and existing literature, the review summarizes how THSWD and its bioactive constituents regulate these signaling cascades to ameliorate AS. Furthermore, it highlights the distinctive therapeutic advantages of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) compounds in managing chronic diseases driven by multi-target and multifactorial mechanisms. Analyzing disease targets from the perspective of signaling pathways enhances the scientific validation of clinical efficacy for such formulations, thereby offering novel insights for future research.展开更多

文摘Objectives:Postmenopausal osteoporosis is the most common form of osteoporosis in clinical practice,affecting millions of postmenopausal women worldwide.Postmenopausal osteoporosis demands safe and effective therapies.This study aimed to evaluate the potential of hederagenin(Hed)for treating osteoporosis and to elucidate its underlying mechanisms of action.Methods:The anti-osteoporotic potential of Hed was assessed by investigating its effects on ovariectomy(OVX)-induced bone loss in mice and on receptor activator of NF-kappaB ligand(RANKL)-induced osteoclast differentiation in RAW264.7 cells.Network pharmacology analysis and molecular docking were employed to identify key targets,which were subsequently validated experimentally.Results:In vitro,Hed suppressed osteoclastogenesis by inhibiting the formation of osteoclasts and F-actin rings and by down-regulating osteoclastspecific genes(Atp6v0d2 and Acp5).In vivo,Hed significantly amelioratedOVX-induced bone loss,restoring trabecular bone volume fraction(BV/TV)and trabecular number(Tb.N),while reducing trabecular separation(Tb.Sp).Network pharmacology analysis identified 142 overlapping targets linking Hed to osteoporosis,including tumor necrosis factor alpha(TNF-α),interleukin-6(IL-6),and IL-1β,with enrichment in innate immune signaling and osteoclast differentiation.Molecular docking analysis indicated strong binding affinities between Hed and targets such as TNF-α,IL-6,and IL-1β.Experimentally,Hed was found to decrease RANKL,elevate osteoprotegerin(OPG),and suppress intestinalmRNA levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1β,IL-6,IL-17A,and TNF-α.Conclusion:Hed exerts significant anti-osteoporotic effects inOVX-induced osteoporosis through a dualmechanism involving the suppression of both osteoclastogenesis and innate immune signaling pathways.These findings highlighted Hed’s novel role in modulating immune-bone crosstalk,offering a promising strategy for treating osteolytic diseases without estrogenic side effects.

文摘The space gravitational wave detection aims to detect gravitational waves in the mHz band in order to study supermassive black hole mergers,galaxy evolution and the structure of the early universe.One of its core payloads is a transponder-type interstellar laser interferometer,designed to measure relative displacement changes at the pico-meter level.Among its components,phasemeter is tasked with extracting the phase and frequency of the interference signal.Currently,phase-locked loop(PLL)phasemeters are commonly employed.However,the second harmonic signal generated by the mixer can restrict both the dynamic range and phase measurement accuracy of the phasemeter.This paper analyzes the interstellar laser interferometer and the impact of the second harmonic signal on the phasemeter's performance.To address these challenges,a phasemeter incorporating a second harmonic signal filter is proposed.This new design mitigates second harmonic disturbances within the phasemeter's bandwidth by dynamically adjusting the filter's cutoff frequency to track the input signal frequency,thereby suppressing the second harmonic signal in real time.Theoretical and simulation analyses demonstrate that the proposed phasemeter with a second harmonic filter significantly enhances the dynamic range.Finally,experimental results verify that the phasemeter can achieve the tracking of sudden frequency changes up to4.8 MHz.

文摘Hearing and balance disorders are significant health issues primarily caused by developmental defects or the irreversible loss of sensory hair cells(HCs).ldentifying the underlying genes involved in the morphogenesis and development of HCs is crucial.Our current study highlights rhpn2,a member of rho-binding proteins,as essential for vestibular HC development.The rhpn2 gene is highly expressed in the crista and macula HCs.Loss of rhpn2 function in zebrafish reduces the otic vesicle area and vestibular HC number,accompanied by vestibular dysfunction.Shorter stereocilia and compromised mechanotransduction channel function are found in the crista HCs of rhpn2 mutants.Transcriptome RNA sequencing analysis predicts the potential interaction of rhpn2 with rhoab.Furthermore,co-immunoprecipitation confirms that Rhpn2 directly binds to RhoA,validating the interaction of the two proteins.rhpn2 knockout leads to a decreased expression of rock2b,a canonical RhoA signaling pathway gene.Treatment with the RhoA activator or exogenous rock2b mRNA injection mitigates crista HC stereocilia defects in rhpn2 mutants.This study uncovers the role of rhpn2 in vestibular HC development and stereocilia formation via mediating the RhoA signaling pathway,providing a target for the treatment of balance disorders.

文摘Muscle atrophy can be induced by high doses or prolonged use of glucocorticoids.Kaempferol(Kae)is a naturally occurring flavonoid with a variety of biological activities and the effect of Kae on dexamethasone(Dex)induced muscle atrophy in animals has not been elucidated.To explore this issue,the present experiments used a computationally assisted drug design scheme combining network pharmacology,molecular docking and in vivo experiments to investigate the mechanism of Kae against muscle atrophy.Network pharmacological analyses revealed 275 potential targets for Kae and 12294 potential targets for muscle atrophy,with a total of 228 crosstargets for Kae and muscle atrophy.GO and KEGG analyses were performed based on the protein-protein interaction(PPI)network of muscle atrophy and Kae component targets.The GO results showed that the biological processes were mainly related to the metabolic process of reactive oxygen species,and the response to oxidative stress;the cellular components were mainly focused on membrane microdomains,and membrane regions;the molecular functions mainly worked on phosphatase binding;and the KEGG pathway enrichment analyses identified the pathways of interaction between Kae and muscle atrophy.Finally,as verified by in vivo experiments,Kae may reduce the onset of muscle atrophy by activating the PI3K/AKT/m TOR/signalling pathway,inhibiting Foxo1/Foxo3 activity,and inhibiting downstream production of the ubiquitination 3 ligases Atrogin1 and Mu RF1;Kae also promotes the expression of NRF2/HO-1/KEAP1 signalling pathway,enhances muscle antioxidant capacity,inhibits the release of COX-2 and TNF-αinflammatory factors,and reduces the damage caused by oxidative stress and inflammatory factors to muscles.Therefore,there may be a synergistic effect of PI3K/AKT/m TOR and NRF2/HO-1/KEAP1 in Kae working together to prevent muscle atrophy.The binding energy and stability of Kae to potential targets were examined by molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations,implying that Kae could be used for the prevention and treatment of muscle atrophy in patients.

文摘V-raf-leukemia viral oncogene 1(RAF1),a serine/threonine protein kinase,is well established to play a crucial role in tumorigenesis and cell development.However,the specific role of hypothalamic RAF1 in regulating energy metabolism remains unknown.In this study,we found that the expression of RAF1 was significantly increased in hypothalamic AgRP neurons of diet-induced obesity(DIO)mice.Under normal chow diet feeding,overexpression of Raf1 in AgRP neurons led to obesity in mice characterized by increased body weight,fat mass,and impaired glucose tolerance.Conversely,Raf1 knockout in AgRP neurons protected against diet-induced obesity,reducing fat mass and improving glucose tolerance.Mechanistically,Raf1 activated the MAPK signaling pathway,culminating in the phosphorylation of cAMP response element-binding protein(CREB),which enhanced transcription of Agrp and Npy.Insulin stimulation further potentiated the RAF1-MEK1/2-ERK1/2-CREB axis,highlighting RAF1's role in integrating hormonal and nutritional signals to regulate energy balance.Collectively,these findings underscore the important role of RAF1 in AgRP neurons in maintaining energy homeostasis and obesity pathogenesis,positioning it and its downstream pathways as potential therapeutic targets for innovative strategies to combat obesity and related metabolic diseases.

文摘Taohong Siwu Decoction(THSWD), a traditional Chinese medicinal formulation, has been demonstrated to significantly modulate key signaling pathways implicated in atherosclerosis(AS). This review examines the complex mechanisms through which THSWD influences critical pathways, including nuclear factor kappa-B(NF-κB), phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase(PI3K)/serine-threonine kinase(AKT), Toll-like receptor 4(TLR4), mitogen-activated protein kinase(MAPK), and mammalian target of rapamycin(mTOR), that play pivotal roles in AS pathogenesis. By synthesizing experimental evidence and existing literature, the review summarizes how THSWD and its bioactive constituents regulate these signaling cascades to ameliorate AS. Furthermore, it highlights the distinctive therapeutic advantages of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) compounds in managing chronic diseases driven by multi-target and multifactorial mechanisms. Analyzing disease targets from the perspective of signaling pathways enhances the scientific validation of clinical efficacy for such formulations, thereby offering novel insights for future research.

文摘Vehicle-induced response separation is a crucial issue in structural health monitoring(SHM).This paper proposes a block-wise sliding recursive wavelet transform algorithm to meet the real-time processing requirements of monitoring data.To extend the separation target from a fixed dataset to a continuously updating data stream,a block-wise sliding framework is first developed.This framework is further optimized considering the characteristics of real-time data streams,and its advantage in computational efficiency is theoretically demonstrated.During the decomposition and reconstruction processes,information from neighboring data blocks is fully utilized to reduce algorithmic complexity.In addition,a delay-setting strategy is introduced for each processing window to mitigate boundary effects,thereby balancing accuracy and efficiency.Simulated signal experiments are conducted to determine the optimal delay configuration and to verify the algorithm’s superior performance,achieving a lower Root Mean Square Error(RMSE)and only 0.0249 times the average computational time compared with the original algorithm.Furthermore,strain signals from the Lieshi River Bridge are employed to validate the method.The proposed algorithm successfully separates the static trend from vehicle-induced responses in real time across different sampling frequencies,demonstrating its effectiveness and applicability in real-time bridge monitoring.

文摘Underground engineering projects such as deep tunnel excavation often encounter rockburst disasters accompanied by numerous microseismic events.Rapid interpretation of microseismic signals is crucial for the timely identification of rockbursts.However,conventional processing encompasses multi-step workflows,including classification,denoising,picking,locating,and computational analysis,coupled with manual intervention,which collectively compromise the reliability of early warnings.To address these challenges,this study innovatively proposes the“microseismic stethoscope"-a multi-task machine learning and deep learning model designed for the automated processing of massive microseismic signals.This model efficiently extracts three key parameters that are necessary for recognizing rockburst disasters:rupture location,microseismic energy,and moment magnitude.Specifically,the model extracts raw waveform features from three dedicated sub-networks:a classifier for source zone classification,and two regressors for microseismic energy and moment magnitude estimation.This model demonstrates superior efficiency compared to traditional processing and semi-automated processing,reducing per-event processing time from 0.71 s to 0.49 s to merely 0.036 s.It concurrently achieves 98%accuracy in source zone classification,with microseismic energy and moment magnitude estimation errors of 0.13 and 0.05,respectively.This model has been well applied and validated in the Daxiagu Tunnel case in Sichuan,China.The application results indicate that the model is as accurate as traditional methods in determining source parameters,and thus can be used to identify potential geomechanical processes of rockburst disasters.By enhancing the signal processing reliability of microseismic events,the proposed model in this study presents a significant advancement in the identification of rockburst disasters.

文摘Diabetes is accompanied by oxidative damage,inflammation,and disorder of metabolic profiles.Dietary procyanidins have been reported to alleviate symptoms of diabetes,however,the underlying mechanism through which procyanidins impact liver metabolic function remains unclear.Here,the effects of p eanut skin procyanidins(PSP)on oxidative stress,inflammatory injury,and dysregulated metabolism in the liver of diabetic mice were evaluated.The results showed that PSP r educed the accumulation of cholesterol and alleviated oxidative stress and inflammatory response in the liver.Moreover,PSP enhanced i nsulin signaling by increasing hepatic protein expression of insulin receptor substrate 1/phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase/protein kinase B.Untargeted metabolomics revealed that PSP altered bile acid biosynthesis,alpha linolenic acid and linoleic acid,arachidonic acid,and glycolipid metabolism in the liver.This study reveals positive effects of PSP in alleviating liver dysfunction in diabetic mice.
文摘This study presents a hybrid CNN-Transformer model for real-time recognition of affective tactile biosignals.The proposed framework combines convolutional neural networks(CNNs)to extract spatial and local temporal features with the Transformer encoder that captures long-range dependencies in time-series data through multi-head attention.Model performance was evaluated on two widely used tactile biosignal datasets,HAART and CoST,which contain diverse affective touch gestures recorded from pressure sensor arrays.TheCNN-Transformer model achieved recognition rates of 93.33%on HAART and 80.89%on CoST,outperforming existing methods on both benchmarks.By incorporating temporal windowing,the model enables instantaneous prediction,improving generalization across gestures of varying duration.These results highlight the effectiveness of deep learning for tactile biosignal processing and demonstrate the potential of theCNN-Transformer approach for future applications in wearable sensors,affective computing,and biomedical monitoring.
文摘While the Ordos Basin is recognized for its substantial hydrocarbon exploration prospects,its rugged loess tableland terrain has rendered seismic exploration exceptionally challenging[1-3].Persistent obstacles such as complex 3D survey planning,low signal-tonoise ratio raw data,inadequate near-surface velocity modeling,and imaging inaccuracy have long hindered the advancement of seismic exploration across this region.Through a problem-solving approach rooted in geological target analysis,this research systematically investigates the behavioral patterns of nodal seismometer-based high-density seismic acquisition in loess plateau.Tailored advancements in waveform enhancement and depth velocity modelling methodologies have been engineered.Field validations confirm that the optimized workflow demonstrates marked improvements in amplitude preservation and imaging resolution,offering novel insights for future reservoir characterization endeavors.
