RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Early-onset schizophrenia (EOS) is a type of schizophrenia (SCZ) with an age of onset of < 18 years. An abnormal inflammatory immune system may be involved in the occurrence and development of SCZ. We aimed to identify the immune characteristic genes and cells involved in EOS and to further explore the pathogenesis of EOS from the perspective of immunology. METHODS: We obtained microarray data from a whole-genome mRNA expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs); 19 patients with EOS (age range: 14.79 ± 1.90) and 18 healthy controls (HC) (age range: 15.67 ± 2.40) were involved. We screened for differentially expressed genes (DEGs) using the Limma software package and modular genes using weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA). In addition, to identify immune characteristic genes and cells, we performed enrichment analysis, immune infiltration analysis, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis; we also used a random forest (RF), a support vector machine (SVM), and the LASSO-Cox algorithm. RESULTS: We selected the following immune characteristic genes: CCL8, PSMD1, AVPR1B and SEMG1. We employed a RF, a SVM, and the LASSO-Cox algorithm. We identified the following immune characteristic cells: activated mast cells, CD4+ memory resting T cells, resting mast cells, neutrophils and CD4+ memory activated T cells. In addition, the AUC values of the immune characteristic genes and cells were all > 0.7. CONCLUSION: Our results indicate that immune system function is altered in SCZ. In addition, CCL8, PSMD1, AVPR1B and SEMG1 may regulate peripheral immune cells in EOS. Further, immune characteristic genes and cells are expected to be diagnostic markers and therapeutic targets of SCZ.

CD27 belongs to the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily and acts as a co-stimulatory molecule, modulating T and B cell responses. CD27 stimulation enhances T cell survival and effector functions, thus providing opportunities to develop therapeutic strategies. The current study aims to investigate the role of endogenous CD27 signaling in tumor growth and metastasis. CD8 + T cell-specific CD27 knockout (CD8Cre-CD27fl) mice were developed, while global CD27 knockout (KO) mice were also used in our studies. Flow cytometry analyses confirmed that CD27 was deleted specifically from CD8 + T cells without affecting CD4 + T cells, B cells, and HSPCs in the CD8Cre-CD27fl mice, while CD27 was deleted from all cell types in global CD27 KO mice. Tumor growth and metastasis studies were performed by injecting B16-F10 melanoma cells subcutaneously (right flank) or intravenously into the mice. We have found that global CD27 KO mice succumbed to significantly accelerated tumor growth compared to WT controls. In addition, global CD27 KO mice showed a significantly higher burden of metastatic tumor nests in the lungs compared to WT controls. However, there was no significant difference in tumor growth curves, survival, metastatic tumor nest counts between the CD8Cre-CD27fl mice and WT controls. These results suggest that endogenous CD27 signaling inhibits tumor growth and metastasis via CD8 + T cell-independent mechanisms in this commonly used melanoma model, presumably through stimulating antitumor activities of other types of immune cells.

BACKGROUND: Aggressive B cell lymphoma with secondary central nervous system (CNS) involvement (SCNSL) carries a dismal prognosis. Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells (CAR-T) targeting CD19 have revolutionized the treatment for B cell lymphomas; however, only single cases with CNS manifestations successfully treated with CD19 CAR-T have been reported. METHODS: We prospectively enrolled 4 patients with SCNSL into our study to assess clinical responses and monitor T cell immunity. RESULTS: Two of four SNCSL patients responded to the CD19-targeted CAR-T. Only one patient showed a substantial expansion of peripheral (PB) CAR-T cells with an almost 100-fold increase within the first week after CAR-T. The same patient also showed marked neurotoxicity and progression of the SNCSL despite continuous surface expression of CD19 on the lymphoma cells and an accumulation of CD4+ central memory-type CAR-T cells in the CNS. Our studies indicate that the local production of chemokine IP-10, possibly through its receptor CXCR3 expressed on our patient's CAR-T, could potentially have mediated the local accumulation of functionally suboptimal anti-tumor T cells. CONCLUSIONS: Our results demonstrate expansion and homing of CAR-T cells into the CNS in SNCSL patients. Local production of chemokines such as IP-10 may support CNS infiltration by CAR-T cells but also carry the potential of amplifying local toxicity. Future studies investigating numbers, phenotype, and function of CAR-T in the different body compartments of SNSCL patients receiving CAR-T will help to improve local delivery of "fit" and highly tumor-reactive CAR-T with low off-target reactivity into the CNS.

BACKGROUND: The patterns of blood pressure (BP) change throughout the pregnancy were related to adverse birth outcomes. However, little is known about the long-term effect of BP change patterns on child neurodevelopment. This study aimed to explore the relationship between the BP trajectory and BP variability during pregnancy and early childhood neurodevelopment. METHOD: A total of 2797 mother-newborn pairs were derived from the Wuhan Healthy Baby Cohort Study. BP was measured during each antenatal visit, and Mental and Psychomotor Development Indexes (MDI and PDI) were assessed using the Bayley Scales of Infant Development (BSID) when the children were 2 years old. Delayed neurodevelopment was defined as scores of PDI or MDI less than - 1SD relative to the mean score of the study population. A group-based multi-trajectory model was adopted to identify multi-trajectories of systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP). Visit-to-visit BP variability was assessed by the coefficient of variation (CV), standard deviation (SD), and average real variability (ARV). Generalized linear models and multivariate logistic regressions were used to assess the associations of BP trajectories and variability with BSID scores and delayed neurodevelopment, respectively. RESULTS: Five distinct trajectories for SBP and DBP were identified, namely, "Low-increasing," "Low-stable," "Moderate-decreasing," "Moderate-increasing," and "High-stable" groups. Compared with the "Low-stable" group, the children whose mothers' BP fell into the other four groups had lower PDI scores, and mothers in the "Low-increasing," "Moderate-increasing," and "Moderate-decreasing" groups had 43% (OR: 1.43, 95% CI: 1.01, 2.03), 48% (OR: 1.48, 95% CI: 1.05, 2.08) and 45% (OR:1.45, 95% CI: 1.03, 2.04) higher risk of having offspring with delayed psychomotor neurodevelopment, respectively. High DBP variability was associated with lower BSID scores, and delayed psychomotor neurodevelopment (OR = 1.46, 95% CI: 1.10, 1.92 for DBP-SD; OR = 1.53, 95% CI: 1.16, 2.02 for DBP-CV). CONCLUSION: Our findings suggest that BP change patterns assessed by multi-trajectory and visit-to-visit variability were associated with lower BSID scores and delayed neurodevelopment. Health professionals should be aware of the influence of BP level and its oscillations during pregnancy on the risk of delayed neurodevelopment.

BACKGROUND AIMS: Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell (CAR-T) therapies have revolutionized the treatment of B-cell lymphomas. Unfortunately, relapses after CD19-targeted CAR-T are relatively common and, therefore, there is a critical need for assays able to assess the function and potency of CAR-T products pre-infusion, which will hopefully help to optimize CAR-T therapies. We developed a novel multicolor fluorescent spot assay (MFSA) for the functional assessment of CAR-T products on a single-cell level, combining the numerical assessment of CAR-T products with their functional characterization. METHODS: We first used a standard single-cell interferon (IFN)-γ enzyme-linked immune absorbent spot assay to measure CD19-targeted CAR-T responses to CD19-coated beads. We then developed, optimized and validated an MFSA that simultaneously measures the secretion of combinations of different cytokines on a single CAR-T level. RESULTS: We identified IFN-γ/tumor necrosis factor-α/granzyme B as the most relevant cytokine combination, and we used our novel MFSA to functionally and numerically characterize two clinical-grade CAR-T products. CONCLUSIONS: In conclusion, we have developed a novel assay for the quantitative and functional potency assessment of CAR-T products. Our optimized MFSA is cost-effective, easy to perform, reliable, can be performed overnight, allowing for a fast delivery of the product to the patient, and requires relatively minimal maintenance and training. The clinical value of our novel assay will be assessed in studies correlating the pre-infusion assessment of CAR-T products with the patients' outcome in a prospective fashion.

BACKGROUND: Flavivirus is a challenge all over the world. The replication of flavivirus takes place within membranous replication compartments (RCs) derived from endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Flavivirus NS1 proteins have been proven essential for the formation of viral RCs by remodeling the ER. The glycosylation of flavivirus NS1 proteins is important for viral replication, yet the underlying mechanism remains unclear. METHODS: HeLa cells were used to visualize the ER remodeling effects induced by NS1 expression. ZIKV replicon luciferase assay was performed with BHK-21 cells. rZIKV was generated from BHK-21 cells and the plaque assay was done with Vero Cells. Liposome co-floating assay was performed with purified NS1 proteins from 293T cells. RESULTS: We found that the glycosylation of flavivirus NS1 contributes to its ER remodeling activity. Glycosylation deficiency of NS1, either through N-glycosylation sites mutations or tunicamycin treatment, compromises its ER remodeling activity and interferes with viral RCs formation. Disruption of NS1 glycosylation results in abnormal aggregation of NS1, rather than reducing its membrane-binding activity. Consequently, deficiency in NS1 glycosylation impairs virus replication. CONCLUSIONS: In summary, our results highlight the significance of NS1 glycosylation in flavivirus replication and elucidate the underlying mechanism. This provides a new strategy for combating flavivirus infections.

The uric acid (UA) level is an important physiological indicator of the human body, and its abnormality can lead to a series of diseases. Therefore, the immediate detection of uric acid concentration has broad application prospects. Commonly used methods for the analysis of uric acid include chromatography, high-performance capillary electrophoresis and electrochemical methods. However, these methods have the disadvantages of cumbersome sample pre-treatment, high cost, time-consuming, and the need for experimental instruments and professional operators, which are extremely unfavorable for the detection of uric acid and the diagnosis of related diseases in resource-limited areas. In this study, a portable visualization method was developed for the detection of uric acid using hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) test strips. Uric acid enzyme specifically catalyzes the oxidation of uric acid to produce H2O2, which causes a significant change in the color of the H2O2 test strip. The response has good linearity in the range of 1 â¼ 50 µg mL-1. Thus, it provides a simple, rapid, and cost-effective visualized bioassay for uric acid.
RESUMO
The discovery of enzyme inhibitors from natural products is a crucial aspect in the development of therapeutic drugs. However, the complexity of natural products presents a challenge in developing simple and efficient methods for inhibitor screening. Herein, we have developed an integrated analytical model for screening xanthine oxidase (XOD) inhibitors that combines simplicity, accuracy, and efficiency. This model utilizes a colorimetric sensor and affinity chromatography technology with immobilized XOD. The colorimetric sensor procedure can quickly identify whether there are active components in complex samples. Subsequently, the active components in the samples identified by the colorimetric sensor procedure were further captured, separated, and identified through affinity chromatography. The integrated analytical model can significantly enhance the efficiency and accuracy of inhibitor screening. The proposed method was applied to screen for an activity inhibitor of XOD in five natural medicines. As a result, a potential active ingredient for XOD, polydatin, was successfully identified from Polygoni Cuspidati Rhizoma et Radix. This work is anticipated to offer new insights for the screening of enzyme inhibitors from natural medicines.

BACKGROUND: The correlation between the endocrine system and bipolar disorder(BD) has been well recognized, yet the influence of neuroendocrine hormones on readmission risk post-hospitalization for BD remains largely unexplored. This retrospective cohort study was to scrutinize the impact of neuroendocrine functionality on the readmission of patients with BD post-hospitalization for mental disorders. METHODS: The dataset was derived from the electronic medical records of the First Affiliated Hospital of Jinan University in Guangzhou, China. Both univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis were conducted on all patients hospitalized for BD, and from 1 January 2017 to October 2022. RESULTS: Of the 1110 eligible patients, 83 and 141 patients experienced psychiatric readmissions within 90 and 180 days post-discharge, respectively. Multivariate analysis revealed that high serum TSH levels (aOR = 1.079; 95%CI = 1.003-1.160) and thyroid disease comorbidities (aOR = 2.899; 95%CI = 1.303-6.452) were independently correlated with the risk of 90-day readmission; while increased serum TSH levels (aOR = 1.179; 95%CI = 1.081-1.287) represented a risk factor for 180-day readmission. These results indicate that high serum TSH levels and thyroid disease comorbidities may contribute to an elevated readmission risk in patients with BD following hospitalization. CONCLUSION: Routinely evaluating and intervening in thyroid function is crucial in the treatment of BD, as it may aid in preventing re-hospitalization.

Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) are promising for precise protein separation and purification. However, challenges persist due to their large size, variable configuration, and instability during preparation. Here, a simple silicon self-assembly program was designed to synthesize MIPs without any organic reagents and acid-base catalysis, avoiding the structural damage of protein under severe conditions. In this method, employing hemoglobin (Hb) as a model protein, with tween-20 in emulsification, and tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) as the cross-linking agent, along with co-functional monomers 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) and benzyl(triethoxy)silane (BnTES), enhanced binding efficacy was achieved. Successful imprinting was evidenced through surface morphology observation and physical/chemical property evaluations of the synthesized MIPs. A series of adsorption experiments were performed to investigate the recognition performance of Hb-MIPs. The Hb-MIPs not only exhibited large adsorption capacity (400 µg/mg) and good imprinting factor (6.09) toward template protein, but also showed satisfactory selectivity for reference proteins. Five cycles of adsorption proved that the Hb-MIPs had good reusability. In addition, the successful isolation of HB from bovine blood indicated that Hb-MIPs were an excellent separation and purification material. The mild preparation conditions and good adsorption capacity demonstrated the potential value of this method in separation and purification research.
RESUMO
α-Glucosidase plays a direct role in the metabolic pathways of starch and glycogen, any dysfunction in its activity could result in metabolic disease. Concurrently, this enzyme serves as a target for diverse drugs and inhibitors, contributing to the regulation of glucose metabolism in the human body. Here, an integrated analytical method was established to screen inhibitors of α-glucosidase. This step-by-step screening model was accomplished through the biosensing and affinity chromatography techniques. The newly proposed sensing program had a good linear relationship within the enzyme activity range of 0.25 U mL-1 to 1.25 U mL-1, which can quickly identify active ingredients in complex samples. Then the potential active ingredients can be captured, separated, and identified by an affinity chromatography model. The combination of the two parts was achieved by an immobilized enzyme technology and a microdevice for reaction, and the combination not only ensured efficiency and accuracy for inhibitor screening but also eliminated the occurrence of false positive results in the past. The emodin, with a notable inhibitory effect on α-glucosidase, was successfully screened from five traditional Chinese medicines using this method. The molecular docking results also demonstrated that emodin was well embedded into the active pocket of α-glucosidase. In summary, the strategy provided an efficient method for developing new enzyme inhibitors from natural products.

ABSTRACT: Glycophorin A (GPA), a red blood cell (RBC) surface glycoprotein, can maintain peripheral blood leukocyte quiescence through interaction with a sialic acid-binding Ig-like lectin (Siglec-9). Under inflammatory conditions such as sickle cell disease (SCD), the GPA of RBCs undergo structural changes that affect this interaction. Peripheral blood samples from patients with SCD before and after RBC transfusions were probed for neutrophil and monocyte activation markers and analyzed by fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS). RBCs were purified and tested by FACS for Siglec-9 binding and GPA expression, and incubated with cultured endothelial cells to evaluate their effect on barrier function. Activated leukocytes from healthy subjects (HS) were coincubated with healthy RBCs (RBCH), GPA-altered RBCs, or GPA-overexpressing (OE) cells and analyzed using FACS. Monocyte CD63 and neutrophil CD66b from patients with SCD at baseline were increased 47% and 27%, respectively, as compared with HS (P = .0017, P = .0162). After transfusion, these markers were suppressed by 22% and 17% (P = .0084, P = .0633). GPA expression in RBCSCD was 38% higher (P = .0291) with decreased Siglec-9 binding compared with RBCH (0.0266). Monocyte CD63 and neutrophil CD66b were suppressed after incubation with RBCH and GPA-OE cells, but not with GPA-altered RBCs. Endothelial barrier dysfunction after lipopolysaccharide challenge was restored fully with exposure to RBCH, but not with RBCSCD, from patients in pain crisis, or with RBCH with altered GPA. Pretransfusion RBCSCD do not effectively maintain the quiescence of leukocytes and endothelium, but quiescence is restored through RBC transfusion, likely by reestablished GPA-Siglec-9 interactions.

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy has shown remarkable efficacy in cancer treatment. Still, most patients receiving CAR T cells relapse within 5 years of treatment. CAR-mediated trogocytosis (CMT) is a potential tumor escape mechanism in which cell surface proteins transfer from tumor cells to CAR T cells. CMT results in the emergence of antigen-negative tumor cells, which can evade future CAR detection, and antigen-positive CAR T cells, which is hypothesized to lead to CAR T cell fratricide and dysfunction. Using a system to selectively degrade trogocytosed antigen in CAR T cells, we show that the presence of trogocytosed antigen in CAR T cells directly causes CAR T cell fratricide and exhaustion. By performing a small molecule screening using a custom high throughput CMT-screening assay, we identified the cysteine protease cathepsin B (CTSB) as a key driver of CMT. We show that overexpression of cystatin A (CSTA), an endogenous human inhibitor of CTSB, reduces trogocytosis resulting in prolonged antitumor activity and increased CAR T cell expansion/persistence. Overall, we show that targeting CMT is an effective approach to enhance CAR T cell function, which may improve their clinical efficacy.
RESUMO
ABSTRACT: Provirus integration site for Moloney murine leukemia virus (PIM) family serine/threonine kinases perform protumorigenic functions in hematologic malignancies and solid tumors by phosphorylating substrates involved in tumor metabolism, cell survival, metastasis, inflammation, and immune cell invasion. However, a comprehensive understanding of PIM kinase functions is currently lacking. Multiple small-molecule PIM kinase inhibitors are currently being evaluated as cotherapeutics in patients with cancer. To further illuminate PIM kinase functions in cancer, we deeply profiled PIM1 substrates using the reverse in-gel kinase assay to identify downstream cellular processes targetable with small molecules. Pathway analyses of putative PIM substrates nominated RNA splicing and ribosomal RNA (rRNA) processing as PIM-regulated cellular processes. PIM inhibition elicited reproducible splicing changes in PIM-inhibitor-responsive acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cell lines. PIM inhibitors synergized with splicing modulators targeting splicing factor 3b subunit 1 (SF3B1) and serine-arginine protein kinase 1 (SRPK1) to kill AML cells. PIM inhibition also altered rRNA processing, and PIM inhibitors synergized with an RNA polymerase I inhibitor to kill AML cells and block AML tumor growth. These data demonstrate that deep kinase substrate knowledge can illuminate unappreciated kinase functions, nominating synergistic cotherapeutic strategies. This approach may expand the cotherapeutic armamentarium to overcome kinase inhibitor-resistant disease that limits durable responses in malignant disease.

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells are an effective treatment for some blood cancers. However, the lack of tumor-specific surface antigens limits their wider use. We identified a set of surface antigens that are limited in their expression to cancer and the central nervous system (CNS). We developed CAR T cells against one of these antigens, LINGO1, which is widely expressed in Ewing sarcoma (ES). To prevent CNS targeting, we engineered LINGO1 CAR T cells lacking integrin α4 (A4ko), an adhesion molecule essential for migration across the blood-brain barrier. A4ko LINGO1 CAR T cells were efficiently excluded from the CNS but retained efficacy against ES. We show that altering adhesion behavior expands the set of surface antigens targetable by CAR T cells.
