RESUMO
Recently, the sortilin receptor (SORT1) was found to be preferentially over-expressed on the surface of many cancer cells, which makes SORT1 a novel anticancer target. The SORT1 binding proprietary peptide TH19P01 could achieve the SORT1-mediated cancer cell binding and subsequent internalization. Inspired by the peptide-drug conjugate (PDC) strategy, the TH19P01-camptothecin (CPT) conjugates were designed, efficiently synthesized, and evaluated for their anticancer potential in this study. The water solubility, in vitro anticancer activity, time-kill kinetics, cellular uptake, anti-migration activity, and hemolysis effects were systematically estimated. Besides, in order to monitor the release of CPT from conjugates in real-time, the CPT/Dnp-based "turn on" hybrid peptide was designed, which indicted that CPT could be sustainably released from the hybrid peptide in both human serum and cancer cellular environments. Strikingly, compared with free CPT, the water solubility, cellular uptake, and selectivity towards cancer cells of hybrid peptide LYJ-2 have all been significantly enhanced. Moreover, unlike free CPT or TH19P01, LYJ-2 exhibited selective anti-proliferative and anti-migration effects against SORT1-positive MDA-MB-231 cells. Collectively, this study not only established efficient strategies to improve the solubility and anticancer potential of chemotherapeutic agent CPT, but also provided important references for the future development of TH19P01 based PDCs targeting SORT1.
RESUMO
AIM: To identify and appraise the quality of evidence of transitional care interventions on quality of life in lung cancer patients. BACKGROUND: Quality of life is a strong predictor of survival. The transition from hospital to home is a high-risk period for patients' readmission and death, which seriously affect their quality of life. DESIGN: Systematic review and meta-analysis. METHODS: The PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science and CINAHL databases were searched from inception to 22 October 2022. The primary outcome was quality of life. Statistical analysis was conducted using Review Manager 5.4, results were expressed as standard mean difference (SMD) with a 95% confidence interval (CI). The risk of bias of the included studies was assessed using the Cochrane risk of bias assessment tool. This study was complied with PRISMA guidelines and previously registered in PROSPERO (CRD42023429464). RESULTS: Fourteen randomized controlled trials were included consisting of a total of 1700 participants, and 12 studies were included in the meta-analysis. It was found that transitional care interventions significantly improved quality of life (SMD = 0.21, 95% CI: 0.02 to 0.40, p = .03) and helped reduce symptoms (SMD = -0.65, 95% CI: -1.13 to -0.18, p = .007) in lung cancer patients, but did not significantly reduce anxiety and depression, and the effect on self-efficacy was unclear. CONCLUSIONS: This study shows that transitional care interventions can improve quality of life and reduce symptoms in patients, and that primarily educational interventions based on symptom management theory appeared to be more effective. But, there was no statistically significant effect on anxiety and depression. RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE: This study provides references for the application of transitional care interventions in the field of lung cancer care, and encourages nurses and physicians to apply transitional care plans to facilitate patients' safe transition from hospital to home. PATIENT OR PUBLIC CONTRIBUTION: No Patient or Public Contribution.

Developing new electrochemiluminescence (ECL) luminators with high stability, wide applicability, and strong designability is of great strategic significance to promote the ECL field to the frontier. Here, driven by the I···N bond, 1,3,5-trifluoro-2,4,6-triiodobenzene (TFTI) and 2,4,6-trimethyl-1,3,5-triazine (TMT) self-assembled into a novel halogen cocrystal (TFTI-TMT) through slow solution volatilization. Significant difference of charge density existed between the N atoms on TMT and the σ-hole of the I atoms on TFTI. Upon the induction of σ-hole effect, high-speed and spontaneous charge transferring from TMT to the σ-hole of TFTI occurred, stimulating exciting ECL signals. Besides, the σ-hole of the I atoms could capture iodine ions specifically, which blocked the original charge transfer from the N atoms to the σ-hole, causing the ECL signal of TFTI-TMT to undergo a quenching rate as high as 92.9%. Excitingly, the ECL sensing of TFTI-TMT toward I- possessed a wide linear range (10-5000 nM) and ultralow detection limit (3 nM) in a real water sample. The halogen cocrystal strategy makes σ-hole a remarkable new viewpoint of ECL luminator design and enables ECL analysis technology to contribute to addressing the environmental and health threats posed by iodide pollution.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Lung cancer surgery patients experience severe physical and mental symptoms, which seriously affect their quality of life and prognosis. Mindful breathing training is a promising strategy to improve their symptoms, but its effectiveness is affected by training compliance, and diary-based rehabilitation instruction has been shown to help improve training compliance. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of mindful breathing training combined with diary-based rehabilitation guidance on improving perioperative outcomes in lung cancer surgery patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This single-center, assessor-blinded, prospective, three-arm randomized controlled trial was conducted from November 1, 2021 to November 1, 2022. Patients diagnosed with primary non-small cell lung cancer and scheduled for thoracoscopic surgery were randomly allocated to the combined intervention group, the mindful breathing group or the control group, with 34 patients in each group. The control group received routine care, while the mindful breathing group received mindful breathing training and routine care. The combined intervention group received both mindful breathing training and diary-based rehabilitation guidance, along with routine care. RESULTS: The per-protocol analysis revealed that patients in the mindful breathing group experienced statistically significant improvements in dyspnea, fatigue and anxiety. Patients in the combined intervention group had statistically significant improvements in dyspnea, fatigue, anxiety, depression, exercise self-efficacy and training compliance. CONCLUSION: This study provides evidence that mindful breathing training combined with diary-based rehabilitation guidance can be effective in improving perioperative outcomes in lung cancer patients. It can be applied in clinical practice in the future.

Background: Rate-pressure product (RPP) calculated by multiplying heart rate by systolic blood pressure, is a convenient indicator closely associated with cardiac work or myocardial oxygen consumption. It has been reported to relate strongly to important indices of cardiovascular risk in patients with myocardial ischemia. However, its relationship with short- and long-term mortality in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) undergoing primary PCI/immediate invasive strategy has not been defined. Methods: This study analyzed 1301 consecutive ACS patients who had undergone primary PCI, between January 2018 and September 2021. Patients with systolic BP < 90 mmHg were excluded to avoid the confounding effect of cardiogenic shock. RPP values were collected on admission and were divided into four groups: RPP ≤ 7.4, 7.4 ≤ 8.8, 8.8 <8.8 < RPP8, and RPP > 10.8. Clinical endpoints were in-hospital cardiac and long-term all-cause mortality. The predictive performance was assessed by C-statistic, multivariate analysis and survival analysis. Results: Multivariate analysis showed that these in the highest vs lowest category of RPP (>10.8 vs ≤7.4) had OR of 4.33 (95% CI=1.10 -17.01; P = 0.036) in in-hospital cardiac mortality and 3.15 (95% CI=1.24 -8.00; P = 0.016) in long-term all-cause mortality. In C-statistic analyses, RPP was a strong predictor in ACS, STEMI or UA/NSTEMI group for in-hospital cardiac mortality (AUC = 0.746, 95% CI = 0.722-0.770, p < 0.001) and long-term all-cause mortality (AUC = 0.701, 95% CI = 0.675-0.725, p < 0.001). The Kaplan-Meier event rate for long-term survival of RPP > 10.8 was significantly lower than that of RPP ≤ 10.8. Conclusion: RPP showed a positive association with in-hospital cardiac or long-term all-cause mortality in ACS patients undergoing primary PCI/immediate invasive strategy, and RPP > 10.8 can be as an independent predictor.

Ampelopsis grossedentata is a valuable medicinal and edible plant, which is often used as a traditional tea by the Tujia people in China. A. grossedentata has numerous biological activities and is now widely used in the pharmaceutical and food industries. In this study, two new flavonoids (1-2) and seventeen known compounds (3-19) were isolated and identified from the dried stems and leaves of A. grossedentata. These isolated compounds were characterized by various spectroscopic data including mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. All isolates were assessed for their α-glucosidase inhibitory, antioxidant, and hepatoprotective activities, and their structure-activity relationships were further discussed. The results indicated that compound 1 exhibited effective inhibitory activity against α-glucosidase, with an IC50 value of 0.21 µM. In addition, compounds 1-2 demonstrated not only potent antioxidant activities but also superior hepatoprotective properties. The findings of this study could serve as a reference for the development of A. grossedentata-derived products or drugs aimed at realizing their antidiabetic, antioxidant, and hepatoprotective functions.

Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have been proposed for electrochemical energy storage, although the poor conductivity resulted from covalent bonds limits their practical performance. Here, we propose to introduce noncovalent bonds in COFs through a molecular insertion strategy for improving the conductivity of the COFs as supercapacitor. The synthesized COFs (MI-COFs) establish equilibriums between covalent bonds and noncovalent bonds, which construct a continuous charge transfer channel to enhance the conductivity. The rapid charge transfer rate enables the COFs to activate the redox sites, bringing about excellent electrochemical energy storage behavior. The results show that the MI-COFs exhibit much better performance in specific capacitance and capacity retention rate than those of most COFs-based supercapacitors. Moreover, through simply altering inserted guests, the mode and strength of noncovalent bond can be adjusted to obtain different energy storage characteristics. The introduction of noncovalent bonds is an effective and flexible way to enhance and regulate the properties of COFs, providing a valuable direction for the development of novel COFs-based energy storage materials.
RESUMO
Owing to the threats that Salmonella poses to public health and the abuse of antimicrobials, bacteriophage therapy against Salmonella is experiencing a resurgence. Although several phages have been reported as safe and efficient for controlling Salmonella, the genetic diversity and relatedness among Salmonella phages remain poorly understood. In this study, whole-genome sequences of 91 Salmonella bacteriophages were obtained from the National Center for Biological Information genome database. Phylogenetic analysis, mosaic structure comparisons, gene content analysis, and orthologue group clustering were performed. Phylogenetic analysis revealed four singletons and two major lineages (I-II), including five subdividing clades, of which Salmonella phages belonging to morphologically distinct families were clustered in the same clade. Chimeric structures (n = 31), holin genes (n = 18), lysin genes (n = 66), DNA packaging genes (n = 55), and DNA metabolism genes (n = 24) were present in these phages. Moreover, phages from different subdivided clusters harboured distinct genes associated with host cell lysis, DNA packaging, and DNA metabolism. Notably, phages belonging to morphologically distinct families shared common orthologue groups. Although several functional modules of phages SS1 and SE16 shared > 99% nucleotide sequence identity with phages SI2 and SI23, the major differences between these phages were the absence and replication of functional modules. The data obtained herein revealed the genetic diversity of Salmonella phages at genomic, structural, and gene content levels. The genetic diversity of Salmonella phages is likely owing to the acquisition, loss, and replication of functional modules.

Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) show potentials in prominent photoelectric responses by judicious structural design. However, from the selections of monomers and condensation reactions to the synthesis procedures, the acquisition of photoelectric COFs has to meet overmuch high conditions, limiting the breakthrough and modulation in photoelectric responses. Herein, the study reports a creative "lock-key model" based on molecular insertion strategy. A COF with suitable cavity size, TP-TBDA, is used as the host to load guests. Merely through the volatilization of mixed solution, TP-TBDA and guests can be spontaneously assembled via non-covalent interactions (NCIs) to produce molecular-inserted COFs (MI-COFs). The NCIs between TP-TBDA and guests acted as a bridge to facilitate charge transfer in MI-COFs, unlocking the photoelectric responses of TP-TBDA. By exploiting the controllability of NCIs, the MI-COFs can realize the smart modulation of photoelectric responses by simply changing the guest molecule, thus avoiding the arduous selection of monomers and condensation reactions required by conventional COFs. The construction of molecular-inserted COFs circumvents complicated procedures for achieving performance improvement and modulation, providing a promising direction to construct late-model photoelectric responsive materials.
RESUMO
AIM: To investigate the effectiveness of internet-based self-management interventions on pulmonary function in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). DESIGN: Systematic review and meta-analysis. DATA SOURCES: Eight electronic databases including PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane library, Embase, CINAHL, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wangfang and Weipu databases were systematically searched from inception of the database to January 10, 2022. METHODS: Statistical analysis was performed using Review Manager 5.4 and results were reported as mean difference (MD) or standard mean difference (SMD) with 95% confidence intervals (CI). Outcomes were the forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1), forced volume capacity (FVC) and percent of FEV1/FVC. The Cochrane Risk of Bias Tool was used to assess the risk of bias of included studies. The study protocol was not registered. RESULTS: Eight randomized controlled trials (RCTs) including 476 participants met the inclusion criteria and were included in meta-analysis. It was found that internet-based self-management interventions showed a significant improvement in FVC(L), while FEV1 (%), FEV1 (L), FEV1/FVC (%) and FVC (%) did not significantly improve. CONCLUSIONS: Internet-based self-management interventions were effective in improving pulmonary function in patients with COPD, caution should be exercised in interpreting the results. RCTs of higher quality are needed in the future to further demonstrate the effectiveness of the intervention. RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE: It provides evidence for internet-based self-management interventions in improving pulmonary function in patients with COPD. IMPACT: The results suggested that internet-based self-management interventions could improve the pulmonary function in people with COPD. This study provides a promising alternative method for patients with COPD who have difficulty seeking face-to-face self-management interventions, and the intervention can be applied in clinical settings. PATIENT OR PUBLIC CONTRIBUTION: No Patient or Public Contribution.

The application of covalent organic frameworks (COFs) in electrochemiluminescence (ECL) is promising in environmental monitoring. Developing an emerging design strategy to expand the class of COF-based ECL luminophores is highly desirable. Here, a COF-based host-guest system was constructed through guest molecular assembly to deal with nuclear contamination analysis. The efficient charge transport network was formed by inserting an electron-withdrawing guest tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ) into the open space of the COF host (TP-TBDA; TP = 2,4,6-trihydroxy-1,3,5-benzenetricarbaldehyde and TBDA = 2,5-di(thiophen-2-yl)benzene-1,4-diamine) with an electron-donating property; the construction of the COF-based host-guest system (TP-TBDA@TCNQ) triggered the ECL emission of non-emitting TP-TBDA. Furthermore, the dense active sites in TP-TBDA were utilized to capture the target substance UO22+. The presence of UO22+ broke the charge-transfer effect in TP-TBDA@TCNQ, resulting in the weakening of the ECL signal, thus the established ECL system integrating the low detection limit with high selectivity monitors UO22+. This COF-based host-guest system provides a novel material platform for constructing late-model ECL luminophores and creates an opportunity for the vigorous ECL technology.
RESUMO
The study of bacteriophages is experiencing a resurgence with the increasing development of antimicrobial resistance in Staphylococcus aureus. Nonetheless, the genetic features of highly efficient lytic S. aureus phage remain to be explored. In this study, two lytic S. aureus phages, SapYZU11 and SapYZU15, were isolated from sewage samples from Yangzhou, China. The phage morphology, one-step growth, host spectrum and lytic activity of these phages were examined, and their whole-genome sequences were analysed and compared with 280 published genomes of staphylococcal phages. The structural organisation and genetic contents of SapYZU11 and SapYZU15 were investigated. The Podoviridae phage SapYZU11 and Herelleviridae phage SapYZU15 effectively lysed all of the 53 S. aureus strains isolated from various sources. However, SapYZU15 exhibited a shorter latent period, larger burst size and stronger bactericidal ability with an anti-bacterial rate of approximately 99.9999% for 24 h. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that Herelleviridae phages formed the most ancestral clades and the S. aureus Podoviridae phages were clustered in the staphylococcal Siphoviridae phage clade. Moreover, phages in different morphology families contain distinct types of genes associated with host cell lysis, DNA packaging and lysogeny. Notably, SapYZU15 harboured 13 DNA metabolism-related genes, 5 lysin genes, 1 holin gene and 1 DNA packaging gene. The data suggest that S. aureus Podoviridae and Siphoviridae phages originated from staphylococcal Herelleviridae phages, and the module exchange of S. aureus phages occurred in the same morphology family. Moreover, the extraordinary lytic capacity of SapYZU15 was likely due to the presence of speciï¬c genes associated with DNA replication, DNA packaging and the lytic cycle.

Neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs) are disorders in which neurons are lost owing to various factors, resulting in a series of dysfunctions. Their rising prevalence and irreversibility have brought physical pain to patients and economic pressure to both individuals and society. However, the pathogenesis of NDDs has not yet been fully elucidated, hampering the use of precise medication. Induced pluripotent stem cell (IPSC) modeling provides a new method for drug discovery, and exploring the early pathological mechanisms including mitochondrial dysfunction, which is not only an early but a prominent pathological feature of NDDs. In this review, we summarize the iPSC modeling approach of Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, as well as outline typical mitochondrial dysfunction and recapitulate corresponding therapeutic strategies.
RESUMO
Fowl typhoid is an important disease of chickens and turkeys, which is caused by Salmonella Gallinarum (S. Gallinarum). Vaccines with high levels of protective effects against fowl typhoid need to be developed for the poultry industry. In this study, a S. Gallinarum strain, named SG01, was isolated from a poultry farm in Mashan region of Wuxi City, China, and identified through biochemical tests and specific PCR amplifications. Then, safety evaluations of the SG01 strain were performed in young chickens. No clinical symptom including depression and diarrhea and gross lesion involved in the cardiac nodule, hepatic necrotic lesion and splenic necrotic lesion, was determined on fifteen-day-old chickens after immunization with 1 × 1010 CFU of the SG01 strain through the oral route. However, diarrhea symptoms and hepatic lesions were identified from chickens immunized with the commercial vaccine strain SG9R by the same dose and route. At 14 days post inoculation, SG01 strain was eliminated in the liver and spleen from SG01-immunized chickens, while the SG9R strain still could be identified from SG9R-immunized chickens. After challenge with the virulent S. Gallinarum strain, significant reduction of the morbidity rate was found in the SG01 immunized group (20 %) compared to the challenge group (100 %) according to signs scoring systems for clinical symptoms and gross lesions. Additionally, immunization with the SG01 strain could provide more than 8 weeks of protection periods against fowl typhoid. These results demonstrate the SG01 strain is avirulent to young chickens and might be safer compared to the SG9R strain. In addition, SG01 strain is a potential vaccine candidate against fowl typhoid in young chickens.

Breast cancer is the most common malignant tumor in women. A previous genome-wide association study reports that rs72755295, a SNP locating at intron of EXO1 (exonuclease 1), is associated with breast cancer. Due to the complete linkage disequilibrium between rs72755295 and rs4149909, a nonsynonymous mutation for EXO1, rs4149909 is supposed to be the causal SNP. Since EXO1 is overexpressed in breast carcinoma samples, we hypothesized that the genetic variations in this locus might confer breast cancer risk by regulating EXO1 expression. To substantiate this, a functional genomics study was performed. The dual luciferase assay indicated that G of rs72755295 presents significantly higher relative enhancer activity than A, thus verifying that this SNP can influence gene expression in breast cell. Through chromosome conformation capture it was disclosed that the enhancer containing rs72755295 can interact with the EXO1 promoter. RNA-seq analysis indicated that EXO1 expression is dependent on the rs72755295 genotype. By chromatin immunoprecipitation, the transcription factor PAX6 (paired box 6) was recognized to bind the region spanning rs72755295. In electrophoretic mobility shift assay, G of rs72755295 displays obviously higher binding affinity with nuclear protein than A. Our results indicated that rs72755295 is a cis-regulatory variation for EXO1 and might confer breast cancer risk besides rs4149909.
RESUMO
Spinal interneurons (INs) form intricate local networks in the spinal cord and regulate not only the ascending and descending nerve transduction but also the central pattern generator function. They are therefore potential therapeutic targets in spinal cord injury and diseases. In this study, we devised a reproducible protocol to differentiate human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) from enriched spinal dI4 inhibitory GABAergic INs. The protocol is designed based on developmental principles and optimized by using small molecules to maximize its reproducibility. The protocol comprises induction of neuroepithelia, patterning of neuroepithelia to dorsal spinal progenitors, expansion of the progenitors in suspension, and finally differentiation into mature neurons. In particular, we employed both morphogen activators and inhibitors to restrict or "squeeze" the progenitor fate during the stage of neural patterning. We use retinoic acid (RA) which ventralizes cells up to the mid-dorsal region, with cyclopamine (CYC), an SHH inhibitor, to antagonize the ventralization effect of RA, yielding highly enriched dI4 progenitors (90% Ptf1a+, 90.7% Ascl1+). The ability to generate enriched spinal dI4 GABAergicINs will likely facilitate the study of human spinal IN development and regenerative therapies for traumatic injuries and diseases of the spinal cord.
RESUMO
Lung cancer is a common cancer type, and has the highest mortality rate in the world. A genomewide association study suggests that the genetic marker rs9390123 is significantly associated with DNA repair capacity (DRC) in lung cancer. Analysis of the data derived from the 1000 Genomes Project indicated that there is another single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), rs9399451, in strong linkage disequilibrium with rs9390123 in Caucasian individuals, thus suggesting that this SNP could be associated with DRC. However, the causal SNP and mechanism of DRC remain unclear. In the present study, dual luciferase assay results indicated that both SNPs are functional in lung cells. Through chromosome conformation capture, an enhancer containing the two functional SNPs was observed to bind the promoter of peroxisomal biogenesis factor 3 and phosphatase and actin regulator 2 antisense RNA 1 (PHACTR2AS1). Knockdown of PHACTR2AS1 could significantly influence lung cell proliferation, colony formation, migration and wound healing, which verified that PHACTR2AS1 is a novel oncogene for lung cancer. Through chromatin immunoprecipitation, the transcription factor POU class 2 homeobox 1 (POU2F1) was identified to bind to the surrounding segments of these two SNPs, and their interaction was investigated. The present study identified the mechanism via which rs9390123 and rs9399451 could influence DRC.

Electrochemiluminescence (ECL), as an advanced sensing process, can selectively control the generation of excited states by changing the potential. However, most of the existing ECL systems rely on poisonous coreactants to provide radicals for luminescence; although the ECL efficiency was improved, the athematic coreactants will cause unpredictable interference to the accurate analysis of trace targets. Herein, we realized the ECL of nonemitting molecules by performing intramolecular electron transfer in the olefin-linked covalent organic frameworks (COFs), with a high efficiency of 63.7%. Employing internal dissolved oxygen as the coreactant, it is well suitable for the analysis of various complex samples in the environment. Taking nuclear contamination analysis as the goal orientation, we further illustrated a design of a "turn-on" uranyl ion monitoring system integrating fast response, low detection limit, and high selectivity, showing that new ECL-COFs are promising to facilitate environment-related sensing analysis and structure-feature correlation mechanism exploration.

Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) with stable long-range ordered arrangements are promising materials for organic optoelectronics. However, their electrochemiluminescence (ECL) from non-ECL active monomers has not been realized. Here, we report a design strategy for ECL-emitting COF family. The donors and acceptors co-crystallized and stacked into the highly aligned array of olefin-linked COFs, so that electrons can be transported freely. By this means, a tunable ECL is activated from non-ECL molecules with the maximum efficiency of 32.1% in water with the dissolved oxygen as an inner coreactant, and no additional noxious co-reactant is needed any more. Quantum chemistry calculations further demonstrate that this design reduces the COFs' band gaps and the overlap of electrons and holes in the excited state for better photoelectric properties and stronger ECL signals. This work exploits a basis to envisage the broad application potential of ECL-COFs for various biosensors and light-emitting display.
