RESUMEN
Aluminum nanocrystals (AlNCs) are of increasing interest as sustainable, earth-abundant nanoparticles for visible wavelength plasmonics and as versatile nanoantennas for energy-efficient plasmonic photocatalysis. Here, we show that annealing AlNCs under various gases and thermal conditions induces substantial, systematic changes in their surface oxide, modifying crystalline phase, surface morphology, density, and defect type and concentration. Tailoring the surface oxide properties enables AlNCs to function as all-aluminum-based antenna-reactor plasmonic photocatalysts, with the modified surface oxides providing varying reactivities and selectivities for several chemical reactions.
RESUMEN
Circular RNAs (circRNAs) play vital roles in transcription and translation. Identification of circRNA-RBP (RNA-binding protein) interaction sites has become a fundamental step in molecular and cell biology. Deep learning (DL)-based methods have been proposed to predict circRNA-RBP interaction sites and achieved impressive identification performance. However, those methods cannot effectively capture long-distance dependencies, and cannot effectively utilize the interaction information of multiple features. To overcome those limitations, we propose a DL-based model iCRBP-LKHA using deep hybrid networks for identifying circRNA-RBP interaction sites. iCRBP-LKHA adopts five encoding schemes. Meanwhile, the neural network architecture, which consists of large kernel convolutional neural network (LKCNN), convolutional block attention module with one-dimensional convolution (CBAM-1D) and bidirectional gating recurrent unit (BiGRU), can explore local information, global context information and multiple features interaction information automatically. To verify the effectiveness of iCRBP-LKHA, we compared its performance with shallow learning algorithms on 37 circRNAs datasets and 37 circRNAs stringent datasets. And we compared its performance with state-of-the-art DL-based methods on 37 circRNAs datasets, 37 circRNAs stringent datasets and 31 linear RNAs datasets. The experimental results not only show that iCRBP-LKHA outperforms other competing methods, but also demonstrate the potential of this model in identifying other RNA-RBP interaction sites.
RESUMEN
Membrane-active molecular machines represent a recently emerging, yet important line of expansion in the field of artificial transmembrane transporters. Their hitherto demonstrated limited types (molecular swing, ion fishers, shuttlers, rotors, etc.) certainly call for new inspiring developments. Here, we report a very first motorized ion-transporting carrier-type transporter, i.e., a modularly tunable, light-powered propeller-like transporter derived from Feringa's molecular motor for consistently boosting transmembrane ion transport under continuous UV light irradiation. Based on the EC50 values, the molecular propeller-mediated ion transport activities under UV light irradiation for 300 s are 2.31, 1.74, 2.29, 2.80, and 2.92 times those values obtained without irradiation for Li+, Na+, K+, Rb+, and Cs+ ions, respectively, with EC50 value as low as 0.71 mol % for K+ ion under light irradiation.
RESUMEN
Metasurfaces are a class of two-dimensional artificial resonators, creating new opportunities for strong light-matter interactions. One type of nonradiative optical metasurface that enables substantial light concentration is based on quasi-Bound States in the Continuum (quasi-BIC). Here we report the design and fabrication of a quasi-BIC dielectric metasurface that serves as an optical frequency antenna for photocatalysis. By depositing Ni nanoparticle reactors onto the metasurface, we create an antenna-reactor photocatalyst, where the virtually lossless metasurface funnels light to drive a chemical reaction. This quasi-BIC-Ni antenna-reactor drives H2 dissociation under resonant illumination, showing strong polarization, wavelength, and optical power dependencies. Both E-field-induced electronic and photothermal heating effects drive the reaction, supported by load-dependent reactivity studies and our theoretical model. This study unlocks new opportunities for photocatalysis that employ dielectric metasurfaces for light harvesting in an antenna-reactor format.
RESUMEN
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease. Its pathological features include synovial inflammation, bone erosion, and joint structural damage. Our previous studies have shown that interleukin (IL)-35 is involved in the pathogenesis of bone loss in RA patients. In this study, we are further evaluating the efficacy of IL-35 on collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) in the mouse model. Male DBA/1J mice (n = 10) were initially immunized, 2 µg/mouse IL-35 was injected intraperitoneally every week for 3 weeks after the establishment of the CIA model. Clinical arthritis, histopathological analysis, and three-dimensional micro-computed tomography (3D micro-CT) were determined after the mice were anesthetized on the 42th day. In vitro, RANKL/M-CSF induced mouse preosteoclasts (RAW264.7 cells line) was subjected to antiarthritis mechanism study in the presence of IL-35. The results of clinical arthritis, histopathological analysis, and 3D micro-CT, the expression of RANK/RANKL/OPG axis, inflammatory cytokines, and osteoclastogenesis-related makers demonstrated decreasing severity of synovitis and bone destruction in the ankle joints after IL-35 treatment. Furthermore, IL-35 attenuated inflammatory cytokine production and the expression of osteoclastogenesis-related makers in a mouse preosteoclasts cell line RAW264.7. The osteoclastogenesis-related makers were significantly reduced in IL-35 treated RAW264.7 cells line after blockage with the JAK/STAT1 signaling pathway. These results demonstrated that IL-35 protein could inhibits osteoclastogenesis and attenuates CIA in mice. We concluded that IL-35 can exhibit anti-osteoclastogenesis effects by reducing the expression of inflammatory cytokines and osteoclastogenesis-related makers, thus alleviating bone destruction in the ankle joint and could be a potential therapeutic target for RA.
RESUMEN
Accurate in vivo imaging of G-quadruplexes (G4) is critical for understanding the emergence and progression of G4-associated diseases like cancer. However, existing in vivo G4 fluorescent probes primarily operate within the near-infrared region (NIR-I), which limits their application accuracy due to the short emission wavelength. The transition to second near-infrared (NIR-II) fluorescent imaging has been of significant interest, as it offers reduced autofluorescence and deeper tissue penetration, thereby facilitating more accurate in vivo imaging. Nonetheless, the advancement of NIR-II G4 probes has been impeded by the absence of effective probe design strategies. Herein, through a "step-by-step" rational design approach, we have successfully developed NIRG-2, the first small-molecule fluorescent probe with NIR-II emission tailored for in vivo G4 detection. Molecular docking calculations reveal that NIRG-2 forms stable hydrogen bonds and strong π-π interactions with G4 structures, which effectively inhibit twisted intramolecular charge transfer (TICT) and, thereby, selectively illuminate G4 structures. Due to its NIR-II emission (940 nm), large Stokes shift (90 nm), and high selectivity, NIRG-2 offers up to 47-fold fluorescence enhancement and a tissue imaging depth of 5 mm for in vivo G4 detection, significantly outperforming existing G4 probes. Utilizing NIRG-2, we have, for the first time, achieved high-contrast visualization of tumor metastasis through lymph nodes and precise tumor resection. Furthermore, NIRG-2 proves to be highly effective and reliable in evaluating surgical and drug treatment efficacy in cancer lymphatic metastasis models. We are optimistic that this study not only provides a crucial molecular tool for an in-depth understanding of G4-related diseases in vivo but also marks a promising strategy for the development of clinical NIR-II G4-activated probes.

While monoradical emitters have emerged as a new route toward efficient organic light-emitting diodes, the luminescence property of organic diradicaloids is still scarcely explored. Herein, by devising a novel radical-radical coupling-based synthetic approach, we report a new class of sulfone-functionalized Chichibabin's hydrocarbon derivatives, SD-1-3, featuring varied substituent patterns and moderate to high diradical characters of 0.44-0.70, as highly stable diradicaloids with rarely seen NIR emission beyond 900 nm. Via comprehensive experimental and theoretical investigations, we reveal that the optoelectronic and magnetic properties of these materials are significantly tuned by the variations of substitutions (H/CF3/OMe) on the molecular skeletons. More importantly, quantum chemical computations indicate that the embedding of sulfone groups has contributed to a breaking of their quasi-C2 symmetry of these diradicaloid molecules and results in an excited-state charge transfer character. Therefore, a remarkably deep NIR emissive wavelength of up to 998 nm, together with a large Stokes shift (â¼386 nm), is achieved for the CF3-based SD-2 molecule in tetrahydrofuran. To the best of our knowledge, such a luminescent wavelength of SD-2 has represented the longest wavelengths among the currently reported organic fluorescent radicals. Overall, our work not only establishes a new synthetic approach toward stable Chichibabin's hydrocarbons but also paves the way for designing NIR emissive open-shell materials with both fundamental understanding and feasible control of their luminescent properties.
RESUMEN
Small-molecule fluorescent probes have emerged as potential tools for cancer cell imaging-based diagnostic and therapeutic applications, but their limited selectivity and poor imaging contrast hinder their broad applications. To address these problems, we present the design and construction of a novel near-infrared (NIR) biotin-conjugated and viscosity-activatable fluorescent probe, named as QL-VB, for selective recognition and imaging of cancer cells. The designed probe exhibited a NIR emission at 680 nm, with a substantial Stokes shift of 100 nm and remarkably sensitive responses toward viscosity changes in solution. Importantly, QL-VB provided an evidently enhanced signal-to-noise ratio (SNR: 6.2) for the discrimination of cancer cells/normal cells, as compared with the control probe without biotin conjugation (SNR: 1.8). Moreover, we validated the capability of QL-VB for dynamic monitoring of stimulated viscosity changes within cancer cells and employed QL-VB for distinguishing breast cancer tissues from normal tissues in live mice with improved accuracy (SNR: 2.5) in comparison with the control probe (SNR: 1.8). All these findings indicated that the cancer-targeting and viscosity-activatable NIR fluorescent probe not only enables the mechanistic investigations of mitochondrial viscosity alterations within cancer cells but also holds the potential as a robust tool for cancer cell imaging-based applications.

INTRODUCTION: Although cytologic examination of biliary stricture brushings obtained by endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography is commonly used for diagnosing malignant biliary strictures (MBSs), it has low sensitivity. Several new brushes have capabilities that are still being debated. We have developed a novel brush working from conventional back-and-forth movement to rotation in situ (RIS) that may be more efficient for MBS sampling. We aimed to compare the MBS detection sensitivity of our RIS brush with that of the conventional brush. METHODS: In this multicenter prospective study, we enrolled patients who underwent endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography for suspected MBSs involving biliary stricture brushings obtained using our RIS brush. The historical control group consisted of the 30-brushing arm of our previous randomized trial (patient inclusion, 2018-2020) that used the study design in the same centers and with the same endoscopists as were used in this study. The primary outcome was to compare the sensitivity and specificity of detecting MBSs by cytologic evaluation of biliary stricture brushings between the 2 groups. RESULTS: We enrolled 155 patients in the intent-to-treat analysis. Using the same number of brushing cycles, the RIS brush showed a higher sensitivity than the conventional brush (0.73 vs 0.56, P = 0.003). In per-protocol population, the sensitivity was also higher in the RIS brush group than in the conventional brush group (0.75 vs 0.57, P = 0.002). Multivariate analysis revealed that the RIS brush was the only predictive factor for MBS detection. No significant differences were observed in procedure-related complications between the 2 groups. DISCUSSION: The RIS brush was a promising tool for effective and safe MBS sampling and diagnosis. Further randomized studies are warranted to confirm our results (Chictr.org.cn, identifier: ChiCTR2100047270).
RESUMEN
Incorporating ultralow loading of nanoparticles into polymers has realized increases in dielectric constant and breakdown strength for excellent energy storage. However, there are still a series of tough issues to be dealt with, such as organic solvent uses, which face enormous challenges in scalable preparation. Here, a new strategy of dual in situ synthesis is proposed, namely polymerization of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) synchronizes with growth of calcium borate nanoparticles, making polyester nanocomposites from monomers directly. Importantly, this route is free of organic solvents and surface modification of nanoparticles, which is readily accessible to scalable synthesis of polyester nanocomposites. Meanwhile, uniform dispersion of as ultralow as 0.1 wt% nanoparticles and intense bonding at interfaces have been observed. Furthermore, the PET-based nanocomposite displays obvious increases in both dielectric constant and breakdown strength as compared to the neat PET. Its maximum discharged energy density reaches 15 J cm-3 at 690 MV m-1 and power density attains 218 MW cm-3 under 150 Ω resistance at 300 MV m-1, which is far superior to the current dielectric polymers that can be produced at large scales. This work presents a scalable, safe, low-cost, and environment-friendly route toward polymer nanocomposites with superior capacitive performance.
RESUMEN
INTRODUCTION: 4q35 deletion is a rare chromosomal syndrome with a wide range of phenotypes, which can be challenging to detect through prenatal ultrasound. This study aimed to summarize the fetal phenotypes of patients with 4q35 deletion. CASE PRESENTATION: The study included four fetuses with 4q35 deletion, with detailed records of prenatal ultrasound and genetic testing results. These cases included following phenotypes, fetal growth restriction (FGR) (2/4), cystic hygroma (2/4), single umbilical artery (1/4), and fused kidney (1/4). One case was terminated, while the other three were born and showed no obvious abnormalities at the 1-year follow-up. Previous reports have described the fetal phenotype of 4q35 deletion in 6 patients from five families, with prenatal phenotypes including FGR (2/6), cardiac structural abnormalities (1/6), brain ventriculomegaly (1/6), oligohydramnios (1/6), and multicystic dysplastic kidneys (1/6). CONCLUSION: Overall, the phenotypes of fetuses with 4q35 deletion are diverse, with FGR potentially being a significant phenotype in these cases.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Metastasis renal cell carcinoma (RCC) patients have extremely high mortality rate. A predictive model for RCC micrometastasis based on pathomics could be beneficial for clinicians to make treatment decisions. METHODS: A total of 895 formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded whole slide images (WSIs) derived from three cohorts, including Shanghai General Hospital (SGH), Clinical Proteomic Tumor Analysis Consortium (CPTAC) and Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) cohorts, and another 588 frozen section WSIs from TCGA dataset were involved in the study. The deep learning-based strategy for predicting lymphatic metastasis was developed based on WSIs through clustering-constrained-attention multiple-instance learning method and verified among the three cohorts. The performance of the model was further verified in frozen-pathological sections. In addition, the model was also tested the prognosis prediction of patients with RCC in multi-source patient cohorts. RESULTS: The AUC of the lymphatic metastasis prediction performance was 0.836, 0.865 and 0.812 in TCGA, SGH and CPTAC cohorts, respectively. The performance on frozen section WSIs was with the AUC of 0.801. Patients with high deep learning-based prediction of lymph node metastasis values showed worse prognosis. CONCLUSIONS: In this study, we developed and verified a deep learning-based strategy for predicting lymphatic metastasis from primary RCC WSIs, which could be applied in frozen-pathological sections and act as a prognostic factor for RCC to distinguished patients with worse survival outcomes.

Late-stage clinical trial failures increase the overall cost and risk of bringing new drugs to market. Determining the pharmacokinetic (PK) drivers of toxicity and efficacy in preclinical studies and early clinical trials supports quantitative optimization of drug schedule and dose through computational modeling. Additionally, this approach permits prioritization of lead candidates with better PK properties early in development. Mylotarg is an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) that attained U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval under a fractionated dosing schedule after 17 years of clinical trials, including a 10-year period on the market resulting in hundreds of fatal adverse events. Although ADCs are often considered lower risk for toxicity due to their targeted nature, off-target activity and liberated payload can still constrain dosing and drive clinical failure. Under its original schedule, Mylotarg was dosed infrequently at high levels, which is typical for ADCs because of their long half-lives. However, our PK modeling suggests that these regimens increase maximum plasma concentration (Cmax)-related toxicities while producing suboptimal exposures to the target receptor. Our analysis demonstrates that the benefits of dose fractionation for Mylotarg tolerability should have been obvious early in the drug's clinical development and could have curtailed the proliferation of ineffective Phase III studies. We also identify schedules likely to be even more efficacious without compromising on tolerability. Alternatively, a longer-circulating Mylotarg formulation could obviate the need for dose fractionation, allowing superior patient convenience. Early-stage PK optimization through quantitative modeling methods can accelerate clinical development and prevent late-stage failures.

BACKGROUND: Emerging data suggested that lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] is an independent risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Previous studies indicated fibrinogen (Fib) had synergetic effect on Lp(a)-induced events. However, combined impact of Fib and Lp(a) on ischemic stroke has not been elucidated. METHODS: In this prospective study, we consecutively enrolled 8263 patients with stable coronary artery diseases (CAD) from 2011 to 2017. Patients were categorized into three groups according to tertiles of Lp(a) levels [Lp(a)-low, Lp(a)-medium, and Lp(a)-high] and further divided into nine groups by Lp(a) and Fib levels. All subjects were followed up for the occurrence of ischemic stroke. RESULTS: During a median follow-up of 37.7 months, 157 (1.9%) ischemic strokes occurred. Stroke incidence increased by Lp(a) (1.1 vs. 2.1 vs. 2.5%, Cochran-Armitage p < .001) and Fib (1.1 vs. 2.0 vs. 2.6%, Cochran-Armitage p < .001) categories. When further classified into nine groups by Lp(a) and Fib levels, the incidence of ischemic stroke in group 9 [Lp(a)-high and Fib-high] was significantly higher than that in group 1 [Lp(a)-low and Fib-low] (3.1 vs. 6%, p < .001). The group 9 was associated with a highest risk for ischemic stroke (adjusted HR 4.907, 95% CI: 2.154-11.18, p < .001), compared with individuals in the Lp(a)-high (adjusted HR 2.290, 95% CI: 1.483-3.537, p < .001) or Fib-high (adjusted HR 1.184, 95% CI: 1.399-3.410, p = .001). Furthermore, combining Lp(a) with Fib increased C-statistics by .045 (p = .004). CONCLUSIONS: Current study first demonstrated that elevated Lp(a) combining with Fib evaluation enhanced the risk of ischemic stroke in patients with CAD beyond Lp(a) or Fib alone.

Actin-interacting proteins are important molecules for filament assembly and cytoskeletal signaling within vascular endothelium. Disruption in their interactions causes endothelial pathogenesis through redox imbalance. Actin filament redox regulation remains largely unexplored, in the context of pharmacological treatment. This work focused on the peptidyl methionine (M) redox regulation of actin-interacting proteins, aiming at elucidating its role on governing antioxidative signaling and response. Endothelial EA.hy926 cells were subjected to treatment with salvianolic acid B (Sal B) and tert-butyl-hydroperoxide (tBHP) stimulation. Mass spectrometry was employed to characterize redox status of proteins, including actin, myosin-9, kelch-like erythroid-derived cap-n-collar homology-associated protein 1 (Keap1), plastin-3, prelamin-A/C and vimentin. The protein redox landscape revealed distinct stoichiometric ratios or reaction site transitions mediated by M sulfoxide reductase and reactive oxygen species. In comparison with effects of tBHP stimulation, Sal B treatment prevented oxidation at actin M325, myosin-9 M1489/1565, Keap1 M120, plastin-3 M592, prelamin-A/C M187/371/540 and vimentin M344. For Keap1, reaction site was transitioned within its scaffolding region to the actin ring. These protein M oxidation regulations contributed to the Sal B cytoprotective effects on actin filament. Additionally, regarding the Keap1 homo-dimerization region, Sal B preventive roles against M120 oxidation acted as a primary signal driver to activate nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2). Transcriptional splicing of non-POU domain-containing octamer-binding protein was validated during the Sal B-mediated overexpression of NAD(P)H dehydrogenase [quinone] 1. This molecular redox regulation of actin-interacting proteins provided valuable insights into the phenolic structures of Sal B analogs, showing potential antioxidative effects on vascular endothelium.

This study aimed to decipher the mechanism of circular ribonucleic acids (circRNAs) in lower extremity arteriosclerosis obliterans (LEASO). First, bioinformatics analysis was performed for screening significantly down-regulated cardiac specific circRNA-circHAT1 in LEASO. The expression of circHAT1 in LEASO clinical samples was detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). The protein expression of splicing factor arginine/serine-rich 1 (SFRS1), α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), Calponin (CNN1), cyclin D1 (CNND1) and smooth muscle myosin heavy chain 11 (SMHC) in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) was detected by Western blotting. Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8), 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EdU) and Transwell assays were used to evaluate cell proliferation and migration, respectively. RNA immunoprecipitation (RNA-IP) and RNA pulldown verified the interaction between SFRS1 and circHAT1. By reanalyzing the dataset GSE77278, circHAT1 related to VSMC phenotype conversion was screened, and circHAT1 was found to be significantly reduced in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of LEASO patients compared with healthy controls. Knockdown of circHAT1 significantly promoted the proliferation and migration of VSMC cells and decreased the expression levels of contractile markers. However, overexpression of circHAT1 induced the opposite cell phenotype and promoted the transformation of VSMCs from synthetic to contractile. Besides, overexpression of circHAT1 inhibited platelet-derived growth factor-BB (PDGF-BB)-induced phenotype switch of VSMC cells. Mechanistically, SFRS1 is a direct target of circHAT1 to mediate phenotype switch, proliferation and migration of VSMCs. Overall, circHAT1 regulates SFRS1 to inhibit the cell proliferation, migration and phenotype switch of VSMCs, suggesting that it may be a potential therapeutic target for LEASO.
RESUMEN
A Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-spore-forming, nonmotile, rod-shaped, and yellow-pigmented bacterium, designated strain JXAS1T, was isolated from a freshwater sample collected from Poyang Lake in China. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequence revealed that the isolate belonged to the genus Flavobacterium, being closest to Flavobacterium pectinovorum DSM 6368T (98.61â%). The genome size of strain JXAS1T was 4.66 Mb with DNA G+C content 35.7 mol%. The average nucleotide identity and in silico DNA-DNA hybridization values between strain JXAS1T and its closest relatives were below the threshold values of 95 and 70â%, respectively. The strain contained menaquinone 6 (MK-6) as the predominant menaquinone and the major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, one unidentified glycolipid, and one unidentified polar lipid. The major fatty acids (>5â%) were iso-C15â:â0, summed feature 3 (C16â:â1 ω7c and/or C16â:â1 ω6c), C15â:â0, iso-C17â:â0 3OH, iso-C15â:â0 3OH, and summed feature 9 (iso-C17â:â1 ω9c and/or 10-methyl C16â:â0). Based on phylogenetic, genotypic, and phenotypic evidence, the isolated strain represents a new species in the genus Flavobacterium, and the name Flavobacterium poyangense is proposed. The type strain is JXAS1T (=GDMCC 1.1378T=KCTC 62719T).

An efficient and practical method for the synthesis of 3-alkenylquinoxalinones containing the SCF3 group has been readily developed through a three-component radical cascade reaction involving quinoxalinones, alkynes and AgSCF3. The reaction was found to be compatible with a variety of substrates and exhibited a high functional group tolerance and complete E-selectivity. The preliminary study suggests the involvement of a SCF3 radical in the transformation.
RESUMEN
Enhanced dielectric constant and high breakdown strength offers immense promise for excellent energy storage performance, which is of critical significance in modern electronics and power systems. However, polymer nanocomposites with traditional routes have to balance between dielectric constant and breakdown strength, hence hindering substantive increases in energy density. Herein, a sandwiched polymer nanocomposite film has been constructed to take full advantage of the individual component layers. BaTiO3 nanoparticles are coated with a fluoropolymer to form core-shell structures and then introduced into a polymer as the top and the bottom layers of a sandwich film for enhancing polarization. Moreover, boron nitride nanosheets (BNNSs) in the middle layer of the sandwich film exert positive effects on the inhibition of current leakage for high breakdown resistance. The breakdown strength increases from 480 MV m-1 of the neat polymer to 580 MV m-1 of the sandwiched film. Additionally, the film exhibits a higher dielectric constant in comparison with the neat polymer. The sandwiched film displays a superior energy density (15.75 J cm-3), which is about 1.9 times that of the neat polymer. This work proposes a feasible route to achieve excellent energy storage of polymer dielectrics by synergistically introducing insulating fillers and additional dipoles in a sandwiched polymer nanocomposite film.
