Nature Chemical Biology: Mechanism of action of TRPV3 ion channel protein inhibitors and potential for the treatment of a variety of skin diseases
Time of Update: 2022-11-04
Trpvicin has shown good therapeutic effect in mouse models To further investigate the mechanism by which Trpvicin functions, the authors used cryo-EM to resolve the high-resolution structure of the human-derived TRPV3-Trpvicin complex, revealing that Trpvicin binds to a reported TRPV In the pockets of ligand sites, Trpvicin was found to exert inhibition by stabilizing TRPV3 in the off state.

The Institute of Aquatic Sciences and others revealed the distribution and influence of intestinal antibiotic resistance genes in the main culture area of Protocrayus cruzi in China
Time of Update: 2022-11-04
Habitat, environmental factors (NO3-N, pH and water temperature) and microbial α diversity all have significant influences on ARGs. The conditioned pathogens Streptococcus, Aeromonas and Acinetobacter There is a significant positive correlation with high-risk ARGs, indicating that these conditional pathogens may be potential hosts of high-risk ARGs, which may lead to ineffective antibiotic treatment in aquaculture, so susceptibility tests on pathogenic microorganisms are required to guide rational drug use.
