We aimed to apply a platform that rapidly detects 36 microorganisms and 49 antibiotic resistance markers in the clinical diagnosis of ALRI and drug resistance prediction. Multicenter collection of clinical samples from patients with ALRIs was carried out from 2017 to 2018. Sputum culture (SC) was performed, which provided two outcomes the detected pathogens and the resistance to different antibiotics. Additionally, each sputum sample was used to extract deoxyribonucleic acids (DNAs) followed by high-throughput sequencing. Eleven commonly observed pathogens were surveyed, and for all samples with positive SC results (137 cases), the overall coverage was 95.62% according to the sequencing results. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn, and cutoff reads of the most frequently detected pathogens were acquired. Overall, sequencing exhibited significantly higher sensitivity in the detection of pathogens compared with ary approach to traditional SC reporting. The sequencing technique also revealed some novel potential correlations between the presence of different pathogens, as well as new antimicrobial-resistant genes. Melanoma is a malignant skin cancer that has a poor prognosis in advanced patients. The aim of the present study was to investigate the antitumor role of neferine in melanoma. A375 and C32 cells were selected as research vectors . Cell counting Kit-8, 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine staining, transwell, and flow cytometry assay were used to examined cell malignant phenotypes. Mitochondrial dysfunction was detected by 5,50,6,60-tetrachloro-1,10,3,30-tetraethyl-imidacarbocyanine iodide staining and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation was measured using oxidation sensitive fluorescent probe. The phosphorylation activity of p38 and Jun-N-terminal kinase (JNK) 1/2 were examined by Western
