Results In recent years, with a better understanding of the physiological and chemical mechanisms that play a role in pain, significant improvements have been achieved in the treatment of pain. Various oral or intravenous drugs, local injection treatments, physical and occupational therapy, electrical stimulation, alternative medicine applications, psychological support, and surgical applications are performed in the treatment depending on the severity or the cause of the pain. Conclusions The development and renewal of the knowledge about pain physiopathology can be the basis for improving the quality of life of human beings and providing effective and reliable treatments with technological elements developing in the clinical and research field.Background Nuezhenide (NZD), an iridoid glycoside isolated from Ilex pubescens Hook. & Arn. var. kwangsiensis Hand.-Mazz. used as a traditional Chinese medicine of clearing away heat and toxic materials, displays a variety of biological activities like anti-tumor, antioxidant, and protecting live. However, few studies involving anti-inflammatory activity and mechanism of NZD are reported. In the present study, NZD's anti-inflammatory and antioxidative effects were illustrated. Objective This study aims to test the hypothesis that NZD suppresses LPS-induced inflammation by targeting the NF-κB pathway in RAW264.7 cells. Methods LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells were employed to detect the effect of NZD on cytokine releases by ELISA. Protein expression levels of related molecular markers were quantitated by western blotting analysis. The levels of ROS, NO, and Ca2+ were detected by the flow cytometry. The changes in mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) and mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) were observed and verified by a fluorescence microscopy. Using immunofluorescence assay, the translocation of NF-κB/p65 from the cytoplasm into the nucleus was determined by a confocal microscopy. Results NZD exhibited anti-inflammatory activity and reduced the release of inflammatory cytokines such as nitrite, TNF-α, and IL6. NZD suppressed the expression of the phosphorylated proteins like IKKα/β, IκBα, and p65. In addition, the flow cytometry results indicated that NZD inhibited the levels of ROS, NO, and Ca2+ in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells. JC-1 assay data showed that NZD reversed LPS-induced MMP loss. Furthermore, NZD suppressed LPS-induced NF-B/p65 translocation from the cytoplasm into the nucleus. Conclusions NZD exhibits anti-inflammatory effects via the NF-κB pathway in RAW264.7 cells.Background Graphdiyne have unique pi-conjugated structure, perfect pore distribution and adjustable electronic properties of sp2, sp hybrid planar framework. Due to the presence of acetylenic bonds, it has more excellent properties than graphene, such as unique structure-dependent Dirac cone, abundant carbon bonds and large band gap. As one of the important raw materials for nanodevices, it is extremely important to study the thermal properties of graphdiyne nanoribbon. Objective This paper mainly introduces and discusses recent academic research and patents on the preparation methods and thermal conductivity of graphdiyne nanoribbons. In the meanwhile, the applications in engineering and vacancy defects in the preparation process of graphdiyne are described. Methods Firstly, taking thermal conductivity as an index, the thermal conductivity of graphdiyne with various vacancy defects is discussed from the aspects of length, defect location and defect type. In addition, the graphdiyne nanoribbons were laterally compared with the thermal conductivity of the graphene nanoribbons. Results The thermal conductivity of graphdiyne increases with the length and width, but is lower than the intrinsic. The thermal conductivity of acetylene chain lacking one carbon atom is higher than that lacking in the benzene ring. And it is larger in armchair than that of zigzag in the same size. Besides，the thermal conductivity of nanoribbons with double vacancy defects is lower than the single. And it will also get decreased with the increase of temperature and the number of acetylene chains which is not sensitive to shear strain. Conclusion Due to the unique structure and electronic characteristics, graphdiyne has aroused an extensive research boom in nano science world. Graphdiyne is considered as one of the most promising materials of next generation electronic devices.Neurological diseases expose individuals to a higher risk of suicidal ideation and suicidal behavior, including completed suicides and suicide attempts. They also represent a paradigmatic arena to study the etio-pathogenic mechanisms underlying suicidality because they are emblematic of the heterogeneity and complexity of mutual interrelationships characterizing this issue. On the one hand, neurological diseases imply strictly biological impairments that are postulated to be the basis of vulnerability to suicide or result in the need for treatments for which a suicidal risk has been hypothesized. On the other hand, they question some subjective experiences of neurological patients, up to near existential positions. learn more Often, in fact, they are accompanied by severe hopelessness. The latter may originate in, particularly for the most severe neurological diseases, the absence of curative treatments, unpredictable disease progression that leads to acute relapses or chronicity, a decrease of autonomy or self-identity, progressive social isolation, a sense of becoming useless, and a perception of feeling stigmatized. This may ultimately cause a slip into the experience of an absurd condition. At the confluence of neurobiology and hopelessness, frequent psychiatric co-morbidities may play a primary role. To conclude, neurological patients require special attention from clinicians which should consist of openly verbalizing and exploring the suicidal thematic, inquiring about protective and risk factors, and promptly initiating both a psychopharmacological treatment and, where possible, psychological support.Satureja khuzestanica Jamzad. is a species native to Iran, highly important in Southwestern regions. It belongs to the Lamiaceae family and grows in different climates. A number of pharmacological properties such as analgesic, anti-inflammatory, anticancer, anti-thyroid, antioxidant, and diuretic heve been attributed to this plant. In recent years, a wide range of biological properties, extract, and essential oil of Satureja khuzestanica has been studied by researchers. In the present study, Scopus, SID, ISI, Google Scholar, and PubMed indices were used to extract research articles. No publication time constraint was considered, and the keyword "Satureja khuzestanica" was used to search articles. All extracted articles were examined by two expert researchers and those on the biologic and fundamental science properties of this plan entered the study. Results showed that S. khuzestanica has extensive research and medicinal applications. Considering the economic and medical importance of S. khuzestanica, it is hoped that more extensive studies can be conducted in future on the use of compounds and derivatives of this plant in order to obtain herbal medications to treat pathogens in human and animal.
