Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is intricately linked to the most severe clinical manifestations of brain damage. It encompasses dynamic pathological mechanisms, including hemodynamic disorders, excitotoxic injury, oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, inflammation, and neuronal death. This review provides a comprehensive analysis and summary of biomaterial-based tissue engineering scaffolds and nano-drug delivery systems. As an example of functionalized biomaterials, nano-drug delivery systems alter the pharmacokinetic properties of drugs. They provide multiple targeting strategies relying on factors such as morphology and scale, magnetic fields, pH, photosensitivity, and enzymes to facilitate the transport of therapeutics across the blood-brain barrier and to promote selective accumulation at the injury site. Furthermore, therapeutic agents can be incorporated into bioscaffolds to interact with the biochemical and biophysical environment of the brain. Bioscaffolds can mimic the extracellular matrix environment, regulate cellular interactions, and increase the effectiveness of local treatments following surgical interventions. Additionally, stem cell-based and exosome-dominated extracellular vesicle carriers exhibit high bioreactivity and low immunogenicity and can be used to design therapeutic agents with high bioactivity. This review also examines the utilization of endogenous bioactive materials in the treatment of TBI.

Objective To analyze the structural and phylogenetic characteristics of the mitochondrial genome from Bulinus globosus, so as to provide a theoretical basis for classification and identification of species within the Bulinus genus, and to provide insights into understanding of Bulinus-schistosomes interactions and the mechanisms of parasite transmission. Methods B. globosus samples were collected from the Ruya River basin in Zimbabwe. Mitochondrial DNA was extracted from B. globosus samples and the corresponding libraries were constructed for high-throughput sequencing on the Illumina NovaSeq 6000 platform. After raw sequencing data were subjected to quality control using the fastp software, genome assembly was performed using the A5-miseq and SPAdes tools, and genome annotation was conducted using the MITOS online server. Circular maps and sequence plots of the mitochondrial genome were generated using the CGView and OGDRAW software, and the protein conservation motifs and structures were analyzed using the TBtools software. Base composition and codon usage bias were analyzed and visualized using the software MEGA X and the ggplot2 package in the R software. In addition, a phylogenetic tree was created in the software MEGA X after sequence alignment with the software MAFFT 7, and visualized using the software iTOL. Results The mitochondrial genome of B. globosus was a 13 730 bp double-stranded circular molecule, containing 2 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, and 13 protein-coding genes, with a marked AT preference. The mitochondrial genome composition of B. globosus was similar to that of other species within the Bulinus genus. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of B. globosus was clustered with B. truncatus, B. nasutus, and B. ugandae into the same evolutionary clade, and gene superfamily analysis showed that the metabolism-related proteins of B. globosus were highly conserved, notably the cytochrome c oxidase family, which showed a significant consistency. Conclusions This is the first whole mitochondrial genome sequencing to decode the compositional features of the mitochondrial genome of B. globosus from Zimbabwe and its evolutionary relationship within the Bulinus genus, which provides important insights for further understanding of the phylogeny and mitochondrial genome characteristics of the Bulinus genus.

The receptors of Newcastle disease virus(NDV)are sialic acid receptors that mainly in-clude neu5ac-α-2,3gal-β-1,4Glc(SAα2,3Gal)and neu5ac-2-s-α-2,6Gal10Me(SAα2,6Gal).The distribution and abundance of the two receptors in host cells have important effects on virus sus-ceptibility and intracellular proliferation.In order to further explore the effects of sialic acid recep-tors on susceptibility and proliferation characteristics of NDV different strains,the expression lev-els of SAα2,3Gal and SAα2,6Gal receptors on BHK-21 cell membrane were adjusted by overex-pression and RNAi assays,and the TCID50 values were determined after different BHK-21 cells were inoculated with NDV strains Ⅰ and LaSota.The results suggested that NDV strain LaSota preferentially binds to SAα2,6Gal and strain Ⅰ selectively binds to SAα2,3Gal receptor.Further-more,the viral titers of NDV strains LaSota and Ⅰ in cell culture were positively correlated with the expression levels of SAα2,6Gal and SAα2,3Gal receptors on host cell membrane respectively.In conclusion,our studies provide an understanding of the relationship between infectivity of NDV different strains and receptor types of host cell,and provide a method to increase viral titer of NDV for cell-based vaccine production.

Due to the diverse composition and complex physicochemical and biological characteristics, the pre-treatment of microbiological counting method （preparation of test solution） in microbiological limit test were interfered by many factors, which ultimately affected the repeatability and accuracy of test results. Improving the accuracy of microbiological test is of practical significance to ensure the safety and effectiveness of non-sterile preparations. In this paper, the key factors and optimization methods involved in the pre-treatment of proprietary Chinese medicines were systematically analyzed and summarized.

Perilipin 2(PLIN2)is located on the surface of lipid droplets,acting as an important marker pro-tein of liver lipid droplets.Several studies have shown the crucial role of PLIN2 in regulating liver lipid metabolism by modulating the formation and stability of lipid droplets.Additionally,it is also directly or indirectly involved in many physio-logical and disease processes related to nonalcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD),thereby playing an important role in the development of NAFLD.This paper reviews the distribution,structure,function and role of PLIN2 in NAFLD to provide insights into the development of PLIN2-targeted drugs for the prevention and treatment of NAFLD.

Neuro-enhancement,by intervening on nerves for non-medical purposes,improves people's physical,mental,and cognitive functions.While benefiting people,it also raises ethical risks of privacy,fairness,autonomy,and identity recognition between themselves and"artificial life".Faced with these serious ethical risk challenges,it is urgent to propose countermeasures that respect and safeguard the basic rights of human beings,promote fair benefits with the principle of priority,standardize the information dissemination of neuro-enhancement,strengthen public education and training of ethical on neuro-enhancement technologies and advance responsible innovation,as well as carry out ethical education for neuroscience practitioners,with a view to promoting the healthy development of the field of neuroscience.
