Color contract among try-in insert and resin cement: effect of history upon zirconia-reinforced lithium silicate.

BACKGROUND Point and copy number variant mutations in the PRRT2 gene have been identified in a variety of paroxysmal disorders and different types of epilepsy. In this study, we analyzed the phenotypes and PRRT2-related mutations in Chinese epilepsy children. METHODS A total of 492 children with epilepsy were analyzed by whole exome sequencing (WES) and low-coverage massively parallel CNV sequencing (CNV-seq) to find the single nucleotide variants and copy number variations (CNVs). And quantitative polymerase chain reaction was utilized to verify the CNVs. Their clinical information was followed up. RESULTS We found PRRT2-related mutations in 19 patients (10 males and nine females, six sporadic cases and 13 family cases). Twelve point mutations, four whole gene deletion, and three 16p11.2 deletions were detected. The clinical features of 39 patients in 19 families included one early childhood myoclonic epilepsy (ECME), one febrile seizure (FS), two infantile convulsions with paroxysmal choreoathetosis (ICCA),thors.

Recently, targeted therapy for GC has great clinical prospects, and it is still badly needed to find novel molecular targets to control the progression and development of GC. Kinesin family member 3B (KIF3B) is known as a microtubule motor kinesin and one of the most ubiquitously expressed KIFs. KIF3B participates in multiple cellular processes such as mitosis and spermatogenesis, and the possible role of KIF3B on tumor progression has been widely revealed. KIF3B affects the progression and metastasis of multiple types of tumors, such as pancreatic cancer, prostate cancer, and hepatocellular carcinoma; however, its potential impact on GC is still unknown. Herein, we explored the possible role of KIF3B on the progression of GC and noticed that KIF3B was high expression in tumor tissues from GC patients. KIF3B was also significantly correlated with clinical pathological characteristics such as tumor size (P = .014*) and recurrence (P = .044*). We further revealed that KIF3B depleted GC cells exhibited impaired proliferation capacity in vitro. Similarly, KIF3B depletion suppressed tumor growth of GC cells in mice. In conclusion, we identified KIF3B as a promising therapeutic target for the treatment of GC. check details © 2020 The Authors.

The use of biorational products for the management of insect pests has grown intensively in recent years, which has increased their popularity and share on the insecticide global market. Much of these recent increases in the use of biorational insecticides has been derived from the generalized perception that conventional insecticides have uXFndesirable ecological and human health impacts. However, the idea of simply replacing synthetic compounds with biorational insecticides without considering their potential unintended effects can mislead their use and reduce the market life of such pest management tools. A systematic literature survey encompassing over 15 000 scientific manuscripts published between 1945-2019 reinforces the bias of focusing on studying the targeted effects while overlooking the potential detrimental effects of biorational products on human health and the environment (e.g., death and negative sublethal effects on pollinators and beneficial arthropods such parasitoids and predators). Thus, the risks associated with biorational compounds (e.g., control failures, the evolution of resistance, shift dominance, and outbreaks of secondary or primary pests) need to be revisited and the outcomes of such inquiry could be decisive for their future use in pest management programs. The shortcomings of regulatory processes, knowledge gaps, and the outlook for the use of the biorational products in pest management are discussed. This article is protected by copyright.

The effects of environmental CAP residue on non-target insect metamorphosis have not been reported. Our research aimed to investigate the sublethal effect of CAP on larva-pupa transformation in silkworm, and explore the mechanism of sublethal CAP exposure-mediated pupation metamorphosis defects. RESULT Sublethal CAP exposure affected the growth and development of silkworm larvae and caused defects in pupation metamorphosis. After CAP exposure, formation the of prepupa procuticle, ecdysial membrane and new epidermis was inhibited. Also, the level of 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E) and mRNA levels of the 20E signaling pathway-related genes EcR, USP, E74, E75 and Ftz-f1 were significantly reduced. Moreover, genes involved in chitin synthesis, such as ChsA, CDA1 and CDA2, were downregulated. Injection of 20E led to the upregulation of chitin synthesis-related genes and increased formation of new epidermis in CAP-treated silkworm. However, injection of 20E failed to prevent downregulation of Ftz-f1 and the defects in pupation metamorphosis. CONCLUSION Our results suggested that 20E is a target hormone of CAP exposure-mediated epidermis formation phenotype. Ftz-f1 was silenced by CAP and might be a direct target gene of sublethal CAP exposure. Our study provided new evidence of the effects of sublethal CAP exposure on insect development and metamorphosis. © 2020 Society of Chemical Industry.Guiding the lithium-ion (Li-ion) transport for homogeneous, dispersive distribution is crucial for dendrite-free Li anodes with high current density and long-term cyclability, but remains challenging for the unavailable well-designed nanostructures. Herein, we propose a two-dimensional (2D) heterostructure composed of defective graphene oxide (GO) clipped on mesoporous polypyrrole (mPPy) as a dual-functional Li-ion redistributor to regulate the stepwise Li-ion distribution and Li deposition for extremely stable, dendrite-free Li anode. check details Owing to the synergy from Li-ion transport nanochannels of mPPy and Li-ion nanosieves of defective GO, 2D mPPy-GO heterostructure achieves ultralong cycling stability (1000 cycles), even test at 0 and 50 o C, ultralow overpotential of 70 mV at high current density of 10.0 mA cm -2 , outperforming most of reported Li anodes. Furthermore, mPPy-GO-Li/LiCoO 2 full batteries demonstrate remarkably enhanced performance with capacity retention of > 90% after 450 cycles. Therefore, this work opens many opportunities for creating 2D heterostructures for high-energy-density Li metal batteries.
