RESUMO

DNA cross-links severely challenge replication and transcription in cells, promoting senescence and cell death. In this paper, we report a novel type of DNA interstrand cross-link (ICL) produced as a side product during the attempted repair of 1,N6-ethenoadenine (εA) by human α-ketoglutarate/Fe(II)-dependent enzyme ALKBH2. This stable/nonreversible ICL was characterized by denaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis analysis and quantified by high-resolution LC-MS in well-matched and mismatched DNA duplexes, yielding 5.7% as the highest level for cross-link formation. The binary lesion is proposed to be generated through covalent bond formation between the epoxide intermediate of εA repair and the exocyclic N6-amino group of adenine or the N4-amino group of cytosine residues in the complementary strand under physiological conditions. The cross-links occur in diverse sequence contexts, and molecular dynamics simulations rationalize the context specificity of cross-link formation. In addition, the cross-link generated from attempted εA repair was detected in cells by highly sensitive LC-MS techniques, giving biological relevance to the cross-link adducts. Overall, a combination of biochemical, computational, and mass spectrometric methods was used to discover and characterize this new type of stable cross-link both in vitro and in human cells, thereby uniquely demonstrating the existence of a potentially harmful ICL during DNA repair by human ALKBH2.

RESUMO

Two fungal strains (K-2T and S1) were isolated from the deepest ocean sediment of the Challenger Deep located in the Mariana Trench. The internal transcribed spacer (ITS) gene sequences of the isolates K-2T and S1 differed from those of closely related species, such as Talaromyces assiutensis and T. trachyspermus. Phylogenetic analyses based on single and concatenated alignments of the genes, namely ITS, ß-tubulin (benA), calmodulin (cam), and the second-largest subunit fragment of the RNA polymerase II (rpb2) showed that the isolates K-2T and S1 were clustered together with other Talaromyces species, such as T. trachyspermus and T. assiutensis, as evidenced by the position on a terminal branch with high bootstrap support. They could also be distinguished from their closest relatives with valid published names via morphological and physiological characteristics, for example, growth at 4 °C-50 °C with a pH in the range of 1.5-12. Based on their phylogenetic, morphological, and physicochemical properties, the isolates K-2T and S1 represent a novel species in the genus Talaromyces, and the proposed name is Talaromyces sedimenticola sp. nov. The type strain is K-2T (= GDMCC 3.746T = JCM 39451T).

RESUMO

Dodecyl tannin derivative linked with 1,2,3-triazole was prepared by the click reaction of dodecyl azide and alkynylated tannin. The structure of tannin derivative was identified by FT-IR spectrometer and elemental analyzer, and the surface activity, antioxidant activity and antimicrobial activity of tannin derivative were studied. The surface tension of tannin derivative was significantly reduced because of the introduction of long chain alkyl groups, and the lowest surface tension was 38.87 mN/m at 1.0 mg/mL. The tannin derivative had strong ability to scavenge 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical, the scavenging rate could reach 89.08 % at 0.25 mg/mL. The tannin derivative exhibited strong antibacterial activity against E. coli and S. aureus due to the increased fat-solubility of tannin derivative and the introduction of antibacterial triazole groups in molecular structure of tannin derivative, and the bacteriostatic ratios of tannin derivative against E. coli and S. aureus were 92.16 % and 89.21 % at 2.0 mg/mL, respectively. The tannin derivative can be used as good candidates for antibacterial packaging or antioxidant supplements.

RESUMO

An umpolung approach to amides via hypervalent iodine-mediated oxidative rearrangement of N-H ketimines under mild reaction conditions is described. This strategy provides target amides with excellent selectivity in good yields. In addition, preliminary mechanistic studies demonstrated that the migration preference depends on both steric and electronic effects of the migrating groups.

RESUMO

A highly efficient, two-step, one-pot synthetic strategy for amides and peptides was developed by employing ynamides as novel coupling reagents under extremely mild reaction conditions. The ynamides not only are effective for simple amide and dipeptide synthesis but can also be used for peptide segment condensation. Importantly, no racemization was detected during the activation of chiral carboxylic acids. Excellent amidation selectivity toward amino groups in the presence of -OH, -SH, -CONH2, ArNH2, and the NH of indole was observed, making the protection of these functional groups unnecessary in amide and peptide synthesis.

RESUMO

The HMG-CoA reductase (HMGCR) pathway is an important metabolic route, which is not only present in almost every organism, but also involves virus infection. It has recently been shown that expression levels of IFN-responsive genes were significantly increased in HMGCR-downregulated cells and HMGCR inhibitor-treated cells. The aim of this study was to determine whether inhibition of HMGCR by atovastatin would significantly affect Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) infection and immunological reaction in BALB/c mice. The results showed atovastatin significantly stimulated PCV2 replication in vivo. Immunological reaction in atovastatin-treated mice was also significantly enhanced during PCV2 infection. Atovastatin also enhanced PCV2-induced illness in mice. The results of this study will provide new insight into the role of atovastatin in PCV2 infection.

RESUMO

Graphene oxide/polyamidoamines dendrimers (GO/PAMAMs) composites were synthesized via modifying GO with 2.0 G PAMAM. The adsorption behavior of the GO/PAMAMs for acid Bordeaux B (ABB) was studied and the effects of media pH, adsorption time and initial ABB concentration on adsorption capacity of the adsorbent were investigated. The optimum pH value of the adsorption of ABB onto GO/PAMAMs was 2.5. The maximum adsorption capacity increased from 325.78 to 520.83 mg/g with the increase in temperature from 298 to 328 K. The equilibrium data followed the Langmuir isotherm model better than the Freundlich model. The kinetic study illustrated that the adsorption of ABB onto GO/PAMAMs fit the pseudo-second-order model. The thermodynamic parameters indicated that the adsorption process was physisorption, and also an endothermic and spontaneous process.

RESUMO

We examined the role of HMG-CoA reductase (HMGCR) during porcine circovirus 2 (PCV2) infection. The results demonstrated that levels of endogenous HMGCR were not significantly different in PCV2-infected cells and mock-infected cells. However, the level of phosphorylated HMGCR, an inactivated form of HMGCR, was increased in PCV2-infected cells. Furthermore, HMGCR was upregulated by overexpression, silenced by siRNA or inactivated using its dominant-negative form in PK-15 cells. The results showed that PCV2 infection was inhibited by HMGCR overexpression, whereas it was significantly increased in HMGCR-silenced cells and HMGCR inhibitor-treated cells. Moreover, there was a robust apoptotic response at 48 h post-infection (p.i.) in HMGCR-inactivated cells, and this response was significantly greater than that observed in PK-15 cells. A modest apoptotic response was also observed in HMGCR-silenced cells. Caspase-3 activity was also analysed in PCV2-infected cells at 48 h p.i. As expected, caspase-3 activity was significantly increased in HMGCR-inactivated and -silenced cells compared with PK-15 cells. PCV2 replication was dose-dependently increased in HMGCR-inactivated cells when treated with increasing amounts of caspase-3 inhibitor. Altogether, HMGCR was negatively associated with PCV2 infection and PCV2-induced apoptotic cell death. These data demonstrated that HMGCR can be used as a candidate target for PCV2 disease control and antivirus research. Furthermore, the cells generated in this study can be used to evaluate the potential effects of HMGCR on PCV2 replication.

RESUMO

The 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase (HMGCR) pathway is an important metabolic route that is present in almost every organism. However, whether HMGCR affects the expression of interferon (IFN)-responsive genes is unclear. In the present study, expression levels of IFN-responsive genes were monitored by real time polymerase chain reaction and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The results showed that expression levels of IFN-responsive genes were significantly increased in HMGCR-downregulated cells and HMGCR inhibitor-treated cells, indicating that inhibition of HMGCR activates the expression of IFN-responsive genes. The result in this study will provide new insight into the role of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase in antiviral research.

RESUMO

Developing wearable supercapacitors (SCs) with high stretchability, arbitrary deformability, and antifreezing ability is still a challenge. In the present work, an ultrahigh-ionic-conductivity, antifreezing poly(amidoxime)-graft-polyzwitterion (PAO-g-PSBMA) hydrogel electrolyte is fabricated by grafting PSBMA in PAO. Owing to the abundant hydrophilic and high ionic adsorption capacity of amidoxime groups in PAO and zwitterion groups in PSBMA, the as-prepared PAO-g-PSBMA hydrogel can facilitate the dissociation of lithium salt and exhibit an ultrahigh ionic conductivity of 29.8 S m-1 at 25 °C and 3.4 S m-1 even at -30 °C. Employing mATi3C2Tx and mSTi3C2Tx, which contain small amounts of PAO-AGE and PAO-g-PSBMA dispersions, respectively, coated onto both sides of the PAO-g-PSBMA hydrogel, we followed a thermal treatment to facilely form integrated stretchable flexible SCs. The as-prepared SCs show an outstanding recoverable tensile stain of 80% and an excellent electrochemical stability under many types and times of arbitrary deformation. More importantly, as-prepared mATi3C2Tx- and mSTi3C2Tx-based SCs present fantastic antifreezing ability and excellent stability with 74.6 and 78.3% retention of the initial capacitance, respectively, even after 1000 times of stretching to 60% at -30 °C. This work offers a new strategy of using PAO-grafted polyzwitterion for obtaining an antifreezing stretchable SC, which shows a high potential for application in next-generation integrated stretchable devices in various fields.

RESUMO

Linkage chemistry and functional molecules derived from the stereogenic sulfur(VI) centre have important applications in organic synthesis, bioconjugation, drug discovery, agrochemicals and polymeric materials. However, existing approaches for the preparation of optically active S(VI)-centred compounds heavily rely on synthetic chiral S(IV) pools, and the reported linkers of S(VI) lack stereocontrol. A modular assembly method, involving sequential ligand exchange at the S(VI) centre with precise control of enantioselectivity, is appealing but remains elusive. Here we report an asymmetric three-dimensional sulfur(VI) fluoride exchange (3D-SuFEx) reaction based on thionyl tetrafluoride gas (SOF4). A key step involves the chiral ligand-induced enantioselective defluorinative substitution of iminosulfur oxydifluorides using organolithium reagents. The resulting optically active sulfonimidoyl fluorides allow for further stereospecific fluoride-exchange by various nucleophiles, thereby establishing a modular platform for the asymmetric SuFEx ligation and the divergent synthesis of optically active S(VI) functional molecules.

RESUMO

Two new heteroleptic indium aminothiolate compounds [InClSC2H4N(Me)SC2H4]3[1] and [InSC2H4N(Me)SC2H4(C8H5F3NO)] [2] were synthesized by in situ salt metathesis reaction involving indium trichloride, aminothiol, and N,O-ß-heteroarylalkenol ligands. The complexes were subsequently purified and thoroughly characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analysis, elemental studies, mass spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction single crystal analysis that showed a trigonal bipyramidal coordination of In(III) in both complexes. Thermogravimetric analysis of [1] revealed a multistep decomposition pathway and the formation of In2S3 at 350 °C, which differed from the pattern of [2] due to the lower thermal stability of [1]. Compound [2] exhibited a three-step decomposition process, resulting in the formation of In2S3 at 300 °C. The Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) experiment involving compound [2] was conducted on the FTO substrate, resulting in the production of singular-phase In2S3 deposits. A comprehensive characterization of these deposits, including crystal structure analysis via X-ray diffraction (XRD), and surface topography examination through scanning electron microscopy (SEM) has been completed. The presence of In-S units was also supported by the Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) of the as-deposited films. Moreover, the electronic structure and thermal properties of compound [2] were investigated through DFT calculations. Electron density localization analysis revealed that the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) exhibited dense concentration at the aminothiolate moiety of the complex, while the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) predominantly resided at the N,O-ß-heteroarylalkenolate ligand. Furthermore, our computational investigation has validated the formation of indium sulfide by elucidating an intermediate state, effectively identified through EI-MS analysis, as one of the plausible pathways for obtaining In2S3. This intermediate state comprises the aminothiolate ligand (LNS) coordinated with indium metal.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: The optimal choice for fusion strategy in Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion (ACDF) remains an unresolved issue. This study aims to perform a network meta-analysis and systematic review of fusion rate and complication rate of various fusion strategies used in ACDF. METHODS: This study followed Prisma guidelines, and we searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science from inception to November 11, 2022, for Randomized Controlled trials comparing the efficacy and safety of fusion modalities in ACDF. The primary outcome was the fusion rate and complication rate. The PROSPERO number is CRD42022374440. RESULTS: This meta-analysis identified 26 Randomized Controlled trial studies with 1789 patients across 15 fusion methods. The cage with autograft + plating showed the highest fusion rate, surpassing other methods like iliac crest bone graft (ICBG) and artificial bone graft (AFG). The stand-alone cage with autograft (SATG) had the second highest fusion rate. Regarding complication rate, the cage with AFG (CAFG) had the highest rate, more than other methods. The ICBG had a higher complication rate compared to ICBG + P, AFG, stand-alone cage with artificial bone graft, SATG, and CALG. The SATG performed well in both fusion and complication rate. CONCLUSIONS: In this study, we conducted the first network meta-analysis to compare the efficacy and safety of various fusion methods in ACDF. Our findings suggest that SATG, with superior performance in fusion rate and complication rate, may be the optimal choice for ACDF. However, the results should be interpreted cautiously until additional research provides further evidence.

RESUMO

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the value of multi-detector computed tomography (MDCT) angiography for the diagnosis of congenital aortic arch anomalies and present the radiological images of congenital aortic arch anomalies in Chinese children. MDCT angiography and transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) were applied for the diagnosis of congenital aortic arch anomalies in 362 Chinese children between May 2006 and December 2011 (age ranges from 5 days to 12 years; mean age, 3.3 years). Surgery and/or catheter angiography (CA) were conducted in all patients to confirm the final diagnosis. In the 362 Chinese children with congenital heart anomalies, congenital aortic arch anomalies were definitely diagnosed in 198 children and 164 children ruled out by operation and/or (CA). Among the 198 children with anomalies, coarctation of aorta (CoA), interruption of aortic arch (IAA), right aortic arch, aberrant right subclavian artery and double aortic arch were diagnosed in 134, 32, 20, 10 and 2 children respectively, and there were 6 cases with uncommon congenital aortic arch anomalies: 2 had double aortic arch including 1 with five branches of the aortic arch, 2 had isolation of the right subclavian artery with two patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), 1 had an isolation of the common carotid artery with a PDA, and 1 had double PDA with a single ventricle and pulmonary artery atresia. Among the 32 children with IAA, 28 were of type A, and 4 were of type B. The diagnostic sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of MDCT angiography for congenital aortic arch anomalies were 100% (198/198), 98% (161/164) and 99% (359/362), respectively. The diagnostic sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of TTE were 92% (182/198), 81% (133/164) and 87% (315/362), respectively. In conclusion, MDCT angiography is a reliable, noninvasive imaging technique for the diagnosis of congenital aortic arch anomalies in children. Sometimes, even more information can be obtained from this technique than from conventional angiography.

RESUMO

Nucleic acid methylations are important genetic and epigenetic biomarkers. The formation and removal of these markers is related to either methylation or demethylation. In this review, we focus on the demethylation or oxidative modification that is mediated by the 2-oxoglutarate (2-OG)/Fe(II)-dependent AlkB/TET family enzymes. In the catalytic process, most enzymes oxidize 2-OG to succinate, in the meantime oxidizing methyl to hydroxymethyl, leaving formaldehyde and generating demethylated base. The AlkB enzyme from Escherichia coli has nine human homologs (ALKBH1-8 and FTO) and the TET family includes three members, TET1 to 3. Among them, some enzymes have been carefully studied, but for certain enzymes, few studies have been carried out. This review focuses on the kinetic properties of those 2-OG/Fe(II)-dependent enzymes and their alkyl substrates. We also provide some discussions on the future directions of this field.

RESUMO

Metal nanoparticles (NP) supported on TiO2 are known to be efficient photocatalysts for solar-to-chemical energy conversion. While TiO2 decorated with copper NPs has the potential to become an attractive system, the poor oxidative stability of Cu severely limits its applicability. In this work, we demonstrate that, when Cu NPs supported on TiO2 nanobelts (NBs) are engaged in the photocatalytic generation of H2 from water under light illumination, Cu is not only oxidized in CuO but also dissolved under the form of Cu+/Cu2+ ions, leading to a continuous reconstruction of nanoparticles via Ostwald ripening. By nanoencapsulating the CuOx (Cu/CuO/Cu2O) NPs by a few layers of carbon supported on TiO2 (TC@C), Ostwald ripening can be suppressed. Simultaneously, the resulting CuOx@C NPs are photoreduced under light illumination to generate Cu@C NPs. This photoswitching strategy allows the preparation of a Cu plasmonic photocatalyst with enhanced activity for H2 production. Remarkably, the photocatalyst is even active when illuminated with visible light, indicating a clear plasmonic enhancement of photocatalytic activity from the surface plasmonic resonance (SPR) effect of Cu NPs. Three-dimensional electromagnetic wave-frequency domain (3D-EWFD) simulations were conducted to confirm the SPR enhancement. This advance bodes for the development of scalable multifunctional Cu-based plasmonic photocatalysts for solar energy transfer.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The study looks at a changed in consumer's eating and purchasing habits during COVID-19 period. There are several modes of transmission but transmission through food as being speculated is one area that has not been confirmed through research. The study, therefore, looks at how speculations about COVID-19 spreading through food has affected consumers' eating and purchasing habits. This study through probit model analysed how consumers' eating and purchasing habits have been influenced. RESULTS: The result shows that age, gender and education have negatively influenced consumer's eating and purchasing habits during the COVID-19 pandemic compared to pre-pandemic period. The preference for imported food items, preference for frozen food, been infected or knowing someone who has been infected by the virus, and been infected through agricultural source or knowing someone who has been infected by the COVID-19 through agricultural source have negatively affected consumers' eating and purchasing habits compared to pre-pandemic period. The result, however, suggests that consumers who trust in the cold-chain food systems ability to limit the spread of the COVID-19 still maintain a positive eating and purchasing habits. CONCLUSIONS: The study provides evidence on the impact of COVID-19 on consumer's eating and purchasing habits. Therefore, there is the need to institute proper sanitary measures, especially at cold-chain food systems to help curb the spread and also boost consumers' confidence.

RESUMO

The development of a novel preparation strategy for 3D porous network structures with an aligned channel or wall is always in challenge. Herein, a 3D porous network composed of an aligned graphene-based wall is fabricated by a confined self-assembly strategy in which holey reduced graphene oxide (HrGO)/lignin sulfonate (Lig) composites are orientedly anchored on the framework of the Lig/single-wall carbon nanotube (Lig/SWCNT) hydrogel by vacuum-assisted filtration accompanied with confined self-assembly and followed with hydrothermal treatment. After freeze drying, the obtained ultralight Lig/SWCNT/HrGOal aerogel exhibits excellent shape memory properties and can roll back to the original shape even if suffering from a high compressive strain of 86.2%. Furthermore, the as-prepared aerogel used as a water-driven artificial muscle shows powerful driving force and can lift ultrahigh weight cargo that is 1030.6 times its own weight. When the prepared Lig/SWCNT/HrGOal aerogel is used as a pressure sensor, it also exhibits high sensitivity (2.28 kPa-1) and a wide detection region of 0.27-14.1 kPa. Additionally, the symmetric flexible supercapacitor assembled with as-prepared aerogel films shows superior stored energy performance that can tolerate 5000 cycles of bending. The present work not only fabricates a high-performance multifunctional material but also develops a new strategy for the preparation a wood-like 3D porous aligned wall network structure.

RESUMO

The preparation of graphene-based aerogels with excellent mechanical strength, elasticity, and compressibility is still a challenge. Herein, we demonstrate a robust, elastic, and lightweight graphene/aramid nanofiber/polyaniline nanotube (rGO/ANF/PANIT) aerogel that is prepared by mixing graphene oxide (GO), ANF, and PANIT dispersions, followed by thermal treatment at 90 °C, freeze-drying, and a low-temperature annealing process. The PANIT bonds the graphene sheets tightly, benefitting the formation of composite gels. The ANF tightly interconnects the graphene sheets and further reinforces the composite network framework significantly, hence endowing rGO/ANF/PANIT composite aerogels with robust mechanical property. The prepared aerogels present a low density of ∼12 mg cm-3, high conductivity, good resilience, and high compressibility. The rGO/ANF/PANIT aerogels as pressure sensors exhibit a high sensitivity of 1.73 kPa-1, low detection limit (40 Pa), wide detection range, and excellent compressive cycle stability, highlighting the promising applications in pressure-sensitive electrical devices, including medical health detection, wearable electronics, and intelligent packaging fields.

Draw ROC curve and analyze the predictive value of Th17 and IL-23 expression in peripheral blood to immunophenotype. RESULTS: The immunophenotype results of AML patients showed that myeloid antigen, lymphoid antigen and hematopoietic stem/progenitor cell marker antigen were positive expressed for various antigens in 105 AML patients, in myeloid antigens, CD13+ accounted for the highest proportion (93.33%), in lymphoid antigens, CD56+ accounted for the highest proportion (32.38%), and in hematopoietic stem/progenitor cell marker antigens, CD38+ accounted for the highest proportion (68.57%). The expression of Th17 in peripheral blood of AML patients with CD56+, CD7+, CD34+ and human leukocyte antigen DR+(HLA-DR+) were higher than that of AML patients with CD56-, CD7-, CD34-, HLA-DR-, the expression of IL-23 in peripheral blood of AML patients with CD56+, CD34+ and HLA-DR+ were higher than that of AML patients with CD56-, CD34-, HLA-DR-, the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05); compared the expression of Th17 and IL-23 in peripheral blood between other antibody positive and negative patients, there was no statistical significant difference (P>0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that the high expression of Th17 in patients with AML was related to the positive expression of CD56, CD7, CD34 and HLA-DR in the detection of immunophenotype, the high expression of IL-23 was related to the positive expression of CD56, CD34 and HLA-DR in the detection of immunophenotype. The ROC curve showed that the AUC of expression levels of Th17 and IL-23 in peripheral blood alone and in combination for predicting CD56+, CD34+, HLA-DR+ and Th17 in peripheral blood for predicting CD7+ were mostly 0.5-0.7, which had certain predictive value, but the predictive performance was low. CONCLUSION: Myeloid antigen, lymphoid antigen and hematopoietic hematopoietic stem/progenitor cell marker antigen are positive expressed for various antigens in AML patients, the high expression of Th17 in peripheral blood of AML patients is related to the positive expression of CD56, CD7, CD34 and HLA-DR in detection of immunophenotyping, the high expression of IL-23 is related to the positive expression of CD56, CD34 and HLA-DR in the detection of immunophenotype.
