We identified three significantly upregulated miRNAs, miR-31-5p, miR-31-3p and miR-194-3p in lesional epidermis that could negatively regulate seven oncogenic transcription factors, FOXC1, AR, SP1, YY1, GLI2, TP53 and RARA, known to be over-expressed in SCC or BCC. Taken together, our study identified a perturbed miRNA-regulated transcriptome, which potentially confers protection to vitiligo skin from an increased incidence of NMSC.Starch is the largest constituent in animal diets. The aims of this study were as follows (a) to assess the variability of basic physicochemical properties and in vitro starch digestion of starchy feedstuffs and investigate relationship between physicochemical properties and starch digestion of the feedstuffs, and (b) to explore the effects of different sources of starchy feedstuffs on starch digestion and glucose release. In this study, we determined the inherent molecular structure and granular structure of starch and chemical compositions of seven starchy feedstuffs, as well as starch digestion in single feedstuff and different feedstuffs combined with corn. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) results revealed significant difference between granule shape and size of starch of different feedstuffs. Fourier transforms infrared (FTIR) spectra for barley and wheat had lower (p less then 0.05) absorbance band at areas A_860 and A_928 than other feedstuffs, yet rice starch had the lowest value for ratio (R) (1047/1022). Moreover, digestion rate ranged from 0.0157/min for resistant starch (sorghum) to 0.029/min for rapidly starch (broken rice). The principle component analysis (PCA) showed that predicted glycaemic index (pGI) was positively related to A_1022, glucose and rapidly (RDS) content and negatively related to A_995, A_1047, R (1047/1022), resistant starch (RS) and amylose content. Most of the feedstufss with corn combination had no effect on rate of starch digestion. In addition, different starchy feeds and corn combination changed the rate of starch digestion, when barley, however, sorghum combined with corn seemed to affect rate of starch digestion. To sum up, different sources differed in basic physicochemical and structural properties, which would influence the digestion rate of starch and the release of glucose. Combination of different feedstuffs particular sorghum with corn has interactive effect on starch digestion and the release of glucose.We report the development of in vivo subcellular high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) for proteo-metabolomic molecular systems biology in complex tissues. With light microscopy, we identified the left-dorsal and left-ventral animal cells in cleavage-stage non-sentient Xenopus laevis embryos. Using precision-translated fabricated microcapillaries, the subcellular content of each cell was double-probed, each time swiftly ( less then 5 s/event) aspirating less then 5 % of cell volume (≈10 nL). The proteins and metabolites were analyzed by home-built ultrasensitive capillary electrophoresis electrospray ionization employing orbitrap or time-of-flight HRMS. Label-free detection of ≈150 metabolites (57 identified) and 738 proteins found proteo-metabolomic networks with differential quantitative activities between the cell types. With spatially and temporally scalable sampling, the technology preserved the integrity of the analyzed cells, the neighboring cells, and the embryo. 95 % of the analyzed embryos developed into sentient tadpoles that were indistinguishable from their wild-type siblings based on anatomy and visual function in a background color preference assay.

Scorpionism is endemic and represents a real public health problem in Morocco. The most dangerous arthropod in central area is Androctonus mauretanicus (Am) scorpion. Its envenomation can be lethal, especially for children. This study aimed to determine a clinico-epidemiological profile of severe scorpion envenomation (SSE) among children and identify risk factors for mortality.

This retrospective cohort study included 606 children admitted for SSE from January 2010 to July 2015 in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) of Mohammed VI Teaching Hospital.

The mean age of envenomed children was 6.3 ± 4.2 years. Seventy-four percent of them came from rural settings. Envenomation occurred mostly during the summer months and 78.4% of stings were nocturnal. The time between the sting and evaluation was greater than 2 hours in 83% of cases. Autophagy inhibitor in vivo Bivariate analysis indicated that from 1-24 months of age (p=0.001), hyperthermia (p=0.022), episodes of diarrhea (p<0.001), tachycardia (p<0.001), abdominal distention (p<0.001), skin marbling (p<0.001), signs of respiratory distress (p<0.001), irritability (p<0.001), generalized seizures (p=0.053), and GlasgowComa Score (GCS) of 3 to 9 (p<0.001) were significantly correlated with mortality. On multivariate analysis, diarrhea (p=0.007), skin marbling (p=0.006), respiratory distress (p=0.002), and GCS 3-9 (p=0.007) were found to be independent risk factors for mortality in our patient population.

Children are at high risk of developing serious complications, even death, from SSE. Here we identified multiple factors that appear to increase the mortality risk in children after scorpion envenomation, including previously described central nervous system alterations.

The present study tested the relationship between categorization gradience and cue weighting across two sets of English contrasts, each varying orthogonally in two acoustic dimensions. Participants performed a four-alternative forced-choice identification task in a visual world paradigm while their eye movements were monitored. We found that (a) greater categorization gradience derived from behavioral identification responses corresponds to larger secondary cue weights derived from eye movements; (b) the relationship between categorization gradience and secondary cue weighting is observed across cues and contrasts, suggesting that categorization gradience may be a consistent within-individual property in speech perception; and (c) listeners who showed greater categorization gradience tend to adopt a buffered processing strategy, especially when cues arrive asynchronously in time.
