This investigation employed a between-participant design comparing acute and chronic changes in brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), cathepsin B (CatB), insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) across four resistance traini...

The aquaporin (AQP) gene family plays a critical role in water balance and osmotic regulation, yet its function and regulatory mechanisms in plateau reptiles remain poorly understood. In this study, we systematically identified 10 AQP genes in the Qi...

Intestinal health is critical for nutrient absorption and disease resistance in cultured fish. Yet, the effects of dietary Eucalyptus-derived biochar on the gut of largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides) remain largely unexplored. This study evaluate...

The pond slider (Trachemys scripta) is native to the southeastern United States but has been introduced all around the world, including to the Canary Islands (Spain), along with other less-common exotic freshwater turtles such as Graptemys pseudogeog...

Dynamic developmental states of follicles are regarded to be determinants of sexual maturation in fish ovaries. However, it is still a challenge to identify the critical points at which the developmental processes of different types of follicles inte...

Dysregulated macrophage polarization is associated with various diseases, including sepsis, atherosclerosis, and fibrotic diseases. While taurine is known to exert immunomodulatory effects, its mechanism in regulating M1 macrophage polarization and i...

Continuous cropping affects soil health, microbial diversity, and organic matter dynamics, but its long-term impacts on soils under Aralia continentalis Kitag. (a medicinally important Northeast China-native plant) remain unclear. This study evaluate...

This study aimed to evaluate the antiproliferative, apoptotic, and oxidative stress-inducing effects of the combination of metformin and doxorubicin (adriamycin) in OVCAR3 and SKOV3 ovarian cancer cell lines and to investigate the potential synergist...

Cognitive performance during diving is challenged by hyperbaric conditions, where inert gas narcosis, oxygen partial pressure, and carbon dioxide retention may impair accuracy and reaction time. Breathing gas mixtures such as heliox and trimix are pr...

Callicarpa americana L. is a member of the Lamiaceae family with important ornamental and medicinal value. Although the chloroplast genome of Lamiaceae has been extensively studied, its mitochondrial genome remains unreported, limiting a comprehensiv...
