Background PDE9A (Phosphodiesterase 9A) plays an important role in proliferation of cells, their differentiation and apoptosis via intracellular cGMP (cyclic guanosine monophosphate) signaling. The expression pattern of PDE9A is associated with diverse tumors and carcinomas. Therefore, PDE9A could be a prospective candidate as a therapeutic target in different types of carcinoma. The study presented here was designed to carry out the prognostic value as a biomarker of PDE9A in Colorectal cancer (CRC). The present study integrated several cancer databases with in-silico techniques to evaluate the cancer prognosis of CRC. Results The analyses suggested that the expression of PDE9A was significantly down-regulated in CRC tissues than in normal tissues. Moreover, methylation in the DNA promoter region might also manipulate PDE9A gene expression. The Kaplan–Meier curves indicated that high level of expression of PDE9A gene was associated to higher survival in OS, RFS, and DSS in CRC patients. PDE9A demonstrated the highest positive correlation for rectal cancer recurrence with a marker gene CEACAM7. Furtheremore, PDE9A shared consolidated pathways with MAPK14 to induce survival autophagy in CRC cells and showed interaction with GUCY1A2 to drive CRPC. Conclusions Overall, the prognostic value of PDE9A gene could be used as a potential tumor biomarker for CRC.
The research has been conducted to determine the changes in haematological and serum biochemical attributes in calves affected with navel ill. Peripheral blood was collected from affected and healthy calves, and serum was separated for biochemical evaluation. In term of haematological profile, Hb and TEC were decreased whereas PCV and TLC were elevated compared to healthy calves. Some leading enzymes such as ALT, AST, ALP, LDH, CK were elevated in affected calves than their healthy counterparts. Creatinine, BUN, LDL, HDL, cholesterol and triglyceride were also elevated remarkably. Mild alterations of electrolytes such as Na + , K + , Cland Ca +2 were also observed. The results demonstrated that navel ill may compromise vital organs which should be promptly treated once diagnosed. To prevent infection, navel area should be dipped with mild antiseptic and monitored regularly.

B urns are tissue injuries induced by a heat source, friction, electricity, ionizing radiation, or compounds that destroy the skin's structural integrity (Badis and Omar 2018). Burns predominantly affect the outermost layer of skin and membranes that surround it, but in extreme cases, they can also cause damage to tissues beneath the skin, internal structures, and even death. Mortality and morbidity resulting from burns are typically attributable to second-ary infection and prolonged recovery time (Badade et al., 2016). The intensity of the injury determines the healing response of burns. First-and second-degree burns recover rapidly. However, intensed burn wounds are susceptible to infection and difficult to heal naturally (Sajjad et al., 2018). Burn healing is a complicated sequence of processes including coagulation, inflammation, the formation of granulation tissue, epithelium formation, collagen production, and tissue remodeling (Abegao et al., 2015) and a lack of blood flow, a compromised immune system, and an in-
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
