RESUMO
A Gram-stain-negative, strictly aerobic, non-flagellated, oxidase- and catalase-positive, rod-shaped marine bacterium, designated strain DM8T, was isolated from the intestine of Trichiurus japonicus in Weihai, China. The strain optimally grew at 25-35â, with 1.0-4.0% (w/v) NaCl and at pH 7.0-8.0. Its colonies were circular, slightly yellow, non-transparent, smooth, and approximately 0.8-1.5 mm in diameter, after being cultured for 48 h on marine agar 2216. Based on the result of phylogenetic analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequence, strain DM8T had close relationship with Oceanisphaera profunda SM1222T (96.9%) and the type strain DSM 15406 T of the type species Oceanisphaera litoralis (94.7%), respectively. Genome sequencing revealed a genome size of 3,109,059 bp and a G + C content of 46.9 mol%. It had Q-8 as the sole respiratory quinone and possessed C16:0, summed features 3 (C16:1ω7c/C16:1ω6c) and summed features 8 (C18:1ω7c/C18:1ω6c) as major fatty acids. The major polar lipid profile was composed of phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylethanolamine. Based on the phenotypic, chemotaxonomic characterizations, phylogenetic properties and genome analysis, strain DM8T should represent a novel species of the genus Oceanisphaera, for which the name Oceanisphaera pacifica sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is DM8T (= KCTC 82764 T = MCCC 1K06133T).

Members of the genus Marinomonas are known for their environmental adaptation and metabolically versatility, with abundant proteins associated with antifreeze, osmotic pressure resistance, carbohydrase and multiple secondary metabolites. Comparative genomic analysis focusing on secondary metabolites and orthologue proteins was conducted with 30 reference genome sequences in the genus Marinomonas. In this study, a Gram-stain-negative, rod-shaped, non-flagellated and strictly aerobic bacterium, designated as strain E8T, was isolated from the red algae (Gelidium amansii) in the coastal of Weihai, China. Optimal growth of the strain E8T was observed at temperatures 25-30 °C, pH 6.5-8.0 and 1-3% (w/v) NaCl. The DNA G + C content was 42.8 mol%. The predominant isoprenoid quinone was Q-8 and the major fatty acids were C16:0, summed feature 3 and summed feature 8. The major polar lipids were phosphatidylglycerol (PG) and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE). Based on data obtained from this polyphasic taxonomic study, strain E8T should be considered as a novel species of the genus Marinomonas, for which the name Marinomonas algarum is proposed. The type strain is E8T (= KCTC 92201T = MCCC 1K07070T).

A sustainable pathway for the synthesis of tetracyclic purinium salts via ruthenium-catalyzed electro-oxidative annulation of C6-arylpurine nucleosides with alkynes without a stoichiometric metal oxidant has been developed. The protocol described herein exhibits high regioselectivity, broad scope, and wide functional group tolerance, allowing efficient coupling of various biologically important molecules including acyclic, ribosyl, arabinosyl, and deoxyribosyl purine nucleoside derivatives. A novel purinoisoquinolinium-coordinated ruthenium(0) sandwich intermediate has been isolated, crystallographically characterized, and electrochemically analyzed, offering direct mechanistic insight.
RESUMO
Soilless culture experiments with tobacco were conducted to explore how the signal molecule H2S (0.3, 0.6, 0.9, and 1.2 µM) alleviated the toxicity of Cd2+ (50 mg/L). The results suggested that photosynthesis was enhanced as H2S improved the tobacco ΦPSII, ETR, Photo, Cond, and Tr, and that by increasing the NPQ, it consumed considerable amount of energy to enhance plant resistances during Cd2+ exposure. Furthermore, H2S increased the gene transcription of NtSOD3, NtPOD1, and CAT1, to enhance antioxidant enzyme activity, which reduces the generation of the reactive oxygen protective membrane integrity. Additionally, H2S increased the gene expression of the tobacco PC genes, Pr2 and Pr8 promoted the formation of the Cd2+ complexes and transportation to the vacuole, resulting in improved Cd-ATPase gene expression, away from organelles, to alleviate the Cd2+ poison. Furthermore, H2S regulated the relative absorption of K+ and Ca2+, which antagonized the Cd2+, and reduced its transportation to the aboveground plant material. Finally, the expression level of CaM increased with the application of H2S, and was highly correlated with the fitted results of a variety of resistance indicators, thereby indicating that H2S regulatory resistance mechanisms might be associated with Ca2+ signal transduction.

Human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 positive breast cancer (HER2+ BC) is characterized by a high rate of metastasis and drug resistance. The advent of targeted therapy drugs greatly improves the prognosis of HER2+ BC patients. However, drug resistance or severe side effects have limited the application of targeted therapy drugs. To achieve more effective treatment, considerable research has concentrated on strategies to overcome drug resistance. Abemaciclib (CDK4/6 inhibitor), a new antibody-drug conjugate (ADC), src homology 2 (SH2) containing tyrosine phosphatase-1 (SHP-1) and fatty acid synthase (FASN) have been demonstrated to improve drug resistance. In addition, using an effective vector to accurately deliver drugs to tumors has shown good application prospects. Many studies have also found that natural anti-cancer substances produced effective results during in vitro and in vivo anti-HER2+ BC research. This review aimed to summarize the current status of potential clinical drugs that may benefit HER2+ BC patients in the future.
RESUMO
BACKGROUNDS: Neratinib is a potent EGFR/HER2 kinase inhibitor. Gastrointestinal complications (i.e. diarrhea, vomiting and nausea) are the most common adverse events. In this study, we aimed to investigate (1) the overall incidence and relative risk (RR) of diarrhea, vomiting and nausea and (2) whether combination neratinib therapy increased the incidence of gastrointestinal complications versus neratinib alone. METHODS: Relevant studies were identified from the PubMed database, from abstracts presented at the American Society of Clinical Oncology annual conference and from the Web of Science database. Incidences, RRs, and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated. RESULTS: The incidences of all-grade diarrhea, vomiting and nausea in the neratinib groups were 89% (95% CI = 77-95%), 31% (95% CI = 25-37%) and 44% (95% CI = 33-55%), respectively. The neratinib arms significantly increased the risk of diarrhea and vomiting in comparison with the control groups (diarrhea: all-grade, RR = 2.06, 95% CI = 1.38-3.08, P = 0.0004; grade 3/4, RR = 8.77, 95% CI = 2.91-26.40, P = 0.0001; vomiting: all-grade, RR = 2.02, 95% CI = 1.10-3.71, P = 0.02; grade 3/4, RR = 7.10, 95% CI = 3.33-15.15, P < 0.00001). CONCLUSIONS: Our meta-analysis demonstrates that the neratinib arms are associated with a significantly increased risk of diarrhea and vomiting.
