A golgi targeting viscosity rotor for cancer diagnosis in living cells and tissues.

Unveiling the intricate relationship between cancer and Golgi viscosity remains an arduous endeavor, primarily due to the lack of Golgi-specific fluorescent probes tailored for viscosity measurement. Considering this formidable obstacle, we have triumphed over the challenge by devising a bespoke Golgi-specific viscosity probe, aptly named GOL-V. This ingenious innovation comprises the viscosity rotor BODIPY intricately tethered to the Golgi-targeting moiety benzsulfamide. GOL-V exhibits remarkable sensitivity to fluctuations in viscosity, the fluorescence intensity of GOL-V increased 114-fold when the viscosity value was increased from 2.63 to 937.28 cP. Owing to its remarkable capacity to suppress the TICT state under conditions of heightened viscosity. Moreover, its efficacy in sensitively monitoring Golgi viscosity alterations within living cells is also very significant. Astonishingly, our endeavors have culminated in not only the visualization of Golgi viscosity at the cellular and tissue levels but also in the clinical tissue samples procured from cancer patients. Harnessing the prowess of GOL-V, we have successfully demonstrated that Golgi viscosity could serve as a discerning marker for detecting the presence of cancer. The convergence of these exceptional attributes firmly establishes GOL-V as an immensely potent instrument, holding immense potential in the realm of cancer diagnosis.

Effect of esketamine on haemodynamic fluctuations in patients undergoing hysteroscopic surgery: A prospective, double-blind randomized clinical trial.

AIMS: We explored whether esketamine anesthesia during hysteroscopic surgery can reduce intraoperative hemodynamic fluctuations and improve patient benefit. METHODS: A total of 170 patients undergoing hysteroscopic surgery were enrolled, and 151 patients were finally included in the analysis, among which 19 used vasoactive drugs during surgery. Patients were randomly assigned to either the esketamine anesthesia group (E group) or the sufentanil anesthesia group (S group). The primary outcomes were blood pressure and heart rate during the surgery. Secondary outcomes included resistance to laryngeal mask insertion, demand for propofol and remifentanil, nausea and vomiting, Richmond Agitation and Sedation Scale (RASS), dizziness and pain intensity after resuscitation, vasoactive medication treatment, hospitalization time and expenses. RESULTS: E group had a more stable heart rate, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and mean blood pressure than the S group (p < 0.001). Patients in E group had a higher demand for propofol (p < 0.001) but better RASS scores (p < 0.001) after resuscitation. The incidence of intraoperative vasoactive medication use was higher in the S group (18.4% vs. 6.7%, p = 0.029). There were no statistically significant differences in terms of resistance to laryngeal mask insertion, remifentanil demand, time required for resuscitation, postoperative pain, dizziness, nausea or vomiting. CONCLUSIONS: Compared with sufentanil, esketamine-induced anesthesia during hysteroscopic surgery can reduce intraoperative hemodynamic fluctuations and the incidence of intraoperative vasoactive medication. Although esketamine-induced anesthesia may increase the demand for propofol during surgery, it does not affect the anesthesia recovery time and the quality of patient recovery is better.

Strategy to Antibacterial, High-Mechanical, and Degradable Polylactic Acid/Chitosan Composite Film through Reactive Compatibilization via Epoxy Chain Extender.

Research into the production of antibacterial, high strength, and environmentally friendly biobased films for use in food packaging is crucial due to growing concerns about food safety. Herein, the preparation of antibacterial, high mechanical, and degradable Polylactic acid/chitosan (PLA/CS) composite films with exceptional interfacial compatibility through reactive compatibilization via the epoxy chain extender ADR4468 is reported. A strong bond, in the form of a chemical bond between PLA and CS, is established by the cycloaddition opening reaction of ADR, which induces cross-linking between hydroxyl and carboxyl groups on the molecular chains. As a result, the elongation at break increased by 31.8% compared to the composite film without ADR. In addition, the composite films exhibited good compost degradability, with a mass reduction of 42-45% after 100 days of degradation.

AI-based digital pathology provides newer insights into lifestyle intervention-induced fibrosis regression in MASLD: An exploratory study.

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Lifestyle intervention is the mainstay of therapy for metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), and liver fibrosis is a key consequence of MASH that predicts adverse clinical outcomes. The placebo response plays a pivotal role in the outcome of MASH clinical trials. Second harmonic generation/two-photon excitation fluorescence (SHG/TPEF) microscopy with artificial intelligence analyses can provide an automated quantitative assessment of fibrosis features on a continuous scale called qFibrosis. In this exploratory study, we used this approach to gain insight into the effect of lifestyle intervention-induced fibrosis changes in MASH. METHODS: We examined unstained sections from paired liver biopsies (baseline and end-of-intervention) from MASH individuals who had received either routine lifestyle intervention (RLI) (n = 35) or strengthened lifestyle intervention (SLI) (n = 17). We quantified liver fibrosis with qFibrosis in the portal tract, periportal, transitional, pericentral, and central vein regions. RESULTS: About 20% (7/35) and 65% (11/17) of patients had fibrosis regression in the RLI and SLI groups, respectively. Liver fibrosis tended towards no change or regression after each lifestyle intervention, and this phenomenon was more prominent in the SLI group. SLI-induced liver fibrosis regression was concentrated in the periportal region. CONCLUSION: Using digital pathology, we could detect a more pronounced fibrosis regression with SLI, mainly in the periportal region. With changes in fibrosis area in the periportal region, we could differentiate RLI and SLI patients in the placebo group in the MASH clinical trial. Digital pathology provides new insight into lifestyle-induced fibrosis regression and placebo responses, which is not captured by conventional histological staging.

Construction of a predictive model of 2-3 cm ground-glass nodules developing into invasive lung adenocarcinoma using high-resolution CT.

Background: The purpose of this study was to analyze the imaging risk factors for the development of 2-3 cm ground-glass nodules (GGN) for invasive lung adenocarcinoma and to establish a nomogram prediction model to provide a reference for the pathological prediction of 2-3 cm GGN and the selection of surgical procedures. Methods: We reviewed the demographic, imaging, and pathological information of 596 adult patients who underwent 2-3 cm GGN resection, between 2018 and 2022, in the Department of Thoracic Surgery, Second Affiliated Hospital of the Air Force Medical University. Based on single factor analysis, the regression method was used to analyze multiple factors, and a nomogram prediction model for 2-3 cm GGN was established. Results: (1) The risk factors for the development of 2-3 cm GGN during the invasion stage of the lung adenocarcinoma were pleural depression sign (OR = 1.687, 95%CI: 1.010-2.820), vacuole (OR = 2.334, 95%CI: 1.222-4.460), burr sign (OR = 2.617, 95%CI: 1.008-6.795), lobulated sign (OR = 3.006, 95%CI: 1.098-8.227), bronchial sign (OR = 3.134, 95%CI: 1.556-6.310), diameter of GGN (OR = 3.118, 95%CI: 1.151-8.445), and CTR (OR = 172.517, 95%CI: 48.023-619.745). (2) The 2-3 cm GGN risk prediction model was developed based on the risk factors with an AUC of 0.839; the calibration curve Y was close to the X-line, and the decision curve was drawn in the range of 0.0-1.0. Conclusion: We analyzed the risk factors for the development of 2-3 cm GGN during the invasion stage of the lung adenocarcinoma. The predictive model developed based on the above factors had some clinical significance.

Enhancement of in situ detection and imaging of phytohormones in plant tissues by MALDI-MSI using 2,4-dihydroxy-5-nitrobenzoic acid as a novel matrix.

Phytohormones possess unique chemical structures, and their physiological effects are regulated through intricate interactions or crosstalk among multiple phytohormones. MALDI-MSI enables the simultaneous detection and imaging of multiple hormones. However, its application for tracing phytohormones is currently restricted by low abundance of hormone in plant and suboptimal matrix selection. 2,4-Dihydroxy-5-nitrobenzoic acid (DHNBA) was reported as a new MALDI matrix for the enhanced detection and imaging of multiple phytohormones in plant tissues. DHNBA demonstrates remarkable sensitivity improvement when compared to the commonly used matrix, 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid (DHB), in the detection of isoprenoid cytokinins (trans-zeatin (tZ), dihy-drozeatin (DHZ), meta-topolin (mT), and N6-(Δ2-isopentenyl) adenine (iP)), jasmonic acid (JA), abscisic acid (ABA), and 1-aminocyclo-propane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) standards. The distinctive properties of DHNBA (i.e. robust UV absorption, uniform matrix deposition, negligible background interference, and high ionization efficiency of phytohormones) make it as an ideal matrix for enhanced detection and imaging of phytohormones, including tZ, DHZ, ABA, indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), and ACC, by MALDI-MSI in various plant tissues, for example germinating seeds, primary/lateral roots, and nodules. Employing DHNBA significantly enhances our capability to concurrently track complex phytohormone biosynthesis pathways while providing precise differentiation of the specific roles played by individual phytohormones within the same category. This will propel forward the comprehensive exploration of phytohormonal functions in plant science.

Targeting RBM39 through indisulam induced mis-splicing of mRNA to exert anti-cancer effects in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

BACKGROUND: Despite the use of targeted therapeutic approaches, T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) is still associated with a high incidence of complications and a poor prognosis. Indisulam (also known as E7070), a newly identified molecular glue compound, has demonstrated increased therapeutic efficacy in several types of cancer through the rapid degradation of RBM39. This study aimed to evaluate the therapeutic potential of indisulam in T-ALL, elucidate its underlying mechanisms and explore the role of the RBM39 gene. METHODS: We verified the anticancer effects of indisulam in both in vivo and in vitro models. Additionally, the construction of RBM39-knockdown cell lines using shRNA confirmed that the malignant phenotype of T-ALL cells was dependent on RBM39. Through RNA sequencing, we identified indisulam-induced splicing anomalies, and proteomic analysis helped pinpoint protein changes caused by the drug. Comprehensive cross-analysis of these findings facilitated the identification of downstream effectors and subsequent validation of their functional roles. RESULTS: Indisulam has significant antineoplastic effects on T-ALL. It attenuates cell proliferation, promotes apoptosis and interferes with cell cycle progression in vitro while facilitating tumor remission in T-ALL in vivo models. This investigation provides evidence that the downregulation of RBM39 results in the restricted proliferation of T-ALL cells both in vitro and in vivo, suggesting that RBM39 is a potential target for T-ALL treatment. Indisulam's efficacy is attributed to its ability to induce RBM39 degradation, causing widespread aberrant splicing and abnormal translation of the critical downstream effector protein, THOC1, ultimately leading to protein depletion. Moreover, the presence of DCAF15 is regarded as critical for the effectiveness of indisulam, and its absence negates the ability of indisulam to induce the desired functional alterations. CONCLUSION: Our study revealed that indisulam, which targets RBM39 to induce tumor cell apoptosis, is an effective drug for treating T-ALL. Targeting RBM39 through indisulam leads to mis-splicing of pre-mRNAs, resulting in the loss of key effectors such as THOC1.

Genome-Wide Association Study Reveals the Genetic Basis of Crude Fiber Components in Brassica napus L. Shoots at Stem Elongation Stage.

Brassica napus is currently the principal field crop for producing materials for primary, secondary and tertiary industries. B. napus shoots at stem elongation stage are rich in anthocyanins, vitamin C and mineral elements such as selenium, calcium and zinc, and represent a new type of green vegetable. However, the high crude fiber (CF) content of B. napus shoots affects their taste, and few studies have focused on the quality traits of these vegetables. In this study, we investigated five traits related to the CF components, including neutral detergent fiber (NDF), acid detergent fiber (ADF), acid detergent lignin (ADL), hemicellulose (Hem) and cellulose (Cel), of B. napus shoots. Whole-genome resequencing at a depth of ∼20× was utilized to genotype an association panel of 202 diverse accessions, which resulted in the identification of 6,093,649 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and 996,252 indels, respectively. A genome-wide association study (GWAS) was performed for the five CF-related traits based on the phenotypic data observed in four environments. A total of 1,285 significant SNPs were detected at the threshold of -log10 (p) = 5.16, and 97 significant association regions were obtained. In addition, seven candidate genes located on chromosomes A2 (one gene), A8 (three genes), A9 (two genes) and C9 (one gene) related to CF traits were identified, and ten lines containing low CF contents were selected as excellent germplasm resources for breeding. Our results contributed new insights into the genetic basis of CF traits and suggested germplasm resources for the quality improvement of B. napus shoots.

Plasticity in single-crystalline Mg3Bi2 thermoelectric material.

Most of the state-of-the-art thermoelectric materials are inorganic semiconductors. Owing to the directional covalent bonding, they usually show limited plasticity at room temperature1,2, for example, with a tensile strain of less than five per cent. Here we discover that single-crystalline Mg3Bi2 shows a room-temperature tensile strain of up to 100 per cent when the tension is applied along the (0001) plane (that is, the ab plane). Such a value is at least one order of magnitude higher than that of traditional thermoelectric materials and outperforms many metals that crystallize in a similar structure. Experimentally, slip bands and dislocations are identified in the deformed Mg3Bi2, indicating the gliding of dislocations as the microscopic mechanism of plastic deformation. Analysis of chemical bonding reveals multiple planes with low slipping barrier energy, suggesting the existence of several slip systems in Mg3Bi2. In addition, continuous dynamic bonding during the slipping process prevents the cleavage of the atomic plane, thus sustaining a large plastic deformation. Importantly, the tellurium-doped single-crystalline Mg3Bi2 shows a power factor of about 55 microwatts per centimetre per kelvin squared and a figure of merit of about 0.65 at room temperature along the ab plane, which outperforms the existing ductile thermoelectric materials3,4.

Short-term forecasting of vegetable prices based on LSTM model-Evidence from Beijing's vegetable data.

The vegetable sector is a vital pillar of society and an indispensable part of the national economic structure. As a significant segment of the agricultural market, accurately forecasting vegetable prices holds significant importance. Vegetable market pricing is subject to a myriad of complex influences, resulting in nonlinear patterns that conventional time series methodologies often struggle to decode. In this paper, we exploit the average daily price data of six distinct types of vegetables sourced from seven key wholesale markets in Beijing, spanning from 2009 to 2023. Upon training an LSTM model, we discovered that it exhibited exceptional performance on the test dataset. Demonstrating robust predictive performance across various vegetable categories, the LSTM model shows commendable generalization abilities. Moreover, LSTM model has a higher accuracy compared to several machine learning methods, including CNN-based time series forecasting approaches. With R2 score of 0.958 and MAE of 0.143, our LSTM model registers an enhancement of over 5% in forecast accuracy relative to conventional machine learning counterparts. Therefore, by predicting vegetable prices for the upcoming week, we envision this LSTM model application in real-world settings to aid growers, consumers, and policymakers in facilitating informed decision-making. The insights derived from this forecasting research could augment market transparency and optimize supply chain management. Furthermore, it contributes to the market stability and the balance of supply and demand, offering a valuable reference for the sustainable development of the vegetable industry.

Electromagnetic Field-Assisted Frozen Tissue Planarization Enhances MALDI-MSI in Plant Spatial Omics.

Plant samples with irregular morphology are challenging for longitudinal tissue sectioning. This has restricted the ability to gain insight into some plants using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI-MSI). Herein, we develop a novel technique termed electromagnetic field-assisted frozen tissue planarization (EMFAFTP). This technique involves using a pair of adjustable electromagnets on both sides of a plant tissue. Under an optimized electromagnetic field strength, nondestructive planarization and regularization of the frozen tissue is induced, allowing the longitudinal tissue sectioning that favors subsequent molecular profiling by MALDI-MSI. As a proof of concept, flowers, leaves and roots with irregular morphology from six plant species are chosen to evaluate the performance of EMFAFTP for MALDI-MSI of secondary metabolites, amino acids, lipids, and proteins among others in the plant samples. The significantly enhanced MALDI-MSI capabilities of these endogenous molecules demonstrate the robustness of EMFAFTP and suggest it has the potential to become a standard technique for advancing MALDI-MSI into a new era of plant spatial omics.

Detection and phylogenetic classification of Neoehrlichia mikurensis in rodents from the region of Liupan Mountain, China.

Neoehrlichia mikurensis (N. mikurensis) is an emerging tick-borne pathogen that can cause neoehrlichiosis. Rodents are considered the major host for N. mikurensis. Currently, N. mikurensis has been detected in rodents in several studies from China and other countries. However, no research on N. mikurensis infection in rodents has been reported in the Liupan mountain region. The region of Liupan Mountain, located in northwestern China, is the center of the triangle formed by the cities of Xi'an, Yinchuan, and Lanzhou, with multiple tourist sites in the region. To survey whether there is N. mikurensis in hosts, rodents were captured in this region in September 2020. A nested polymerase chain reaction was used to detect the DNA of N. mikurensis, followed by nucleotide sequencing and phylogenetic analysis. In the region, among 88 rodents, 3 rodents were detected positive for N. mikurensis, a detection rate of 3.4%. Based on phylogenetic analysis of the partial groEL gene sequences, N. mikurensis from rodents in Liupan Mountain clustered in the same evolutionary branch with those found in rodents from Japan, Russia, and northeastern China, and also in ticks and clinical cases from Heilongjiang Province in northeastern China.

Predictive value of the C-reactive protein to albumin ratio in the treatment of septic arthritis in young children: A retrospective study.

INTRODUCTION: Septic arthritis (SA) can cause lifelong disability in children due to joint dysfunction but there is controversy regarding the timing of surgery in SA. The C-reactive protein to albumin ratio (CAR) has emerged as a novel marker of inflammation and has been extensively used in predicting inflammatory bowel disease, arthritis, and systemic inflammation. Despite advancements, few studies have evaluated the role of CAR in SA. Therefore, the present study was aimed to investigate whether CAR could serve as predictive indicators for determining whether patients under four years old with SA should be managed conservatively or require surgical intervention, and to analyze its predictive accuracy. HYPOTHESIS: An increase in CAR values among patients under four years old with SA indicates the requirement of surgical intervention. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This retrospective study enrolled SA children under four years old and divided them into two groups, the surgery and conservative groups. The clinical data between the two groups were compared and multivariate logistic regression was performed to assess the independent predictors of SA requiring surgery. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and the area under the curve (AUC) were used to determine the predictive ability of CAR in SA requiring surgery. RESULTS: A total of 82 SA children were included, with 42 children (51.3%) in the surgery group and 40 children (48.7%) in the conservative group. CAR ≥ 1.165 [OR = 12.641, 95% CI (4.264 - 37.479),p < 0.001] was an independent predictive indicator for surgery in SA children under four years old, with a predicted sensitivity of 0.714, specificity of 0.850, and AUC of 0.793 [95% (0.694-0.893)] indicating good predictive accuracy. DISCUSSION: CAR to be an independent predictive indicator patients under four years old with SA. And a CAR value ≥ 1.165 upon admission in these patients suggests the necessity for surgical intervention. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: IV, Retrospective study.

Granulosa Cell-Layer Stiffening Prevents Escape of Mural Granulosa Cells from the Post-Ovulatory Follicle.

Ovulation is vital for successful reproduction. Following ovulation, cumulus cells and oocyte are released, while mural granulosa cells (mGCs) remain sequestered within the post-ovulatory follicle to form the corpus luteum. However, the mechanism underlying the confinement of mGCs has been a longstanding mystery. Here, in vitro and in vivo evidence is provided demonstrating that the stiffening of mGC-layer serves as an evolutionarily conserved mechanism that prevents mGCs from escaping the post-ovulatory follicles. The results from spatial transcriptome analysis and experiments reveal that focal adhesion assembly, triggered by the LH (hCG)-cAMP-PKA-CREB signaling cascade, is necessary for mGC-layer stiffening. Disrupting focal adhesion assembly through RNA interference results in stiffening failure, mGC escape, and the subsequent development of an abnormal corpus luteum characterized by decreased cell density or cavities. These findings introduce a novel concept of "mGC-layer stiffening", shedding light on the mechanism that prevents mGC escape from the post-ovulatory follicle.

Safety of propofol-assisted deep extubation in the dental treatment of children-a retrospective, observational study.

PURPOSE: Awake extubation and deep extubation are commonly used anesthesia techniques. In this study, the safety of propofol-assisted deep extubation in the dental treatment of children was assessed. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Children with severe caries who received dental treatment under general anesthesia and deep extubation between January 2017 and June 2023 were included in this study. Data were collected on the following variables: details and time of anesthesia, perioperative vital signs, and incidence of postoperative complications. The incidence of laryngeal spasm (LS) was considered to be the primary observation indicator. RESULTS: The perioperative data obtained from 195 children undergoing dental treatment was reviewed. The median age was 4.2 years (range: 2.3 to 9.6 years), and the average duration of anesthesia was 2.56 h (range 1 to 4.5 h). During intubation with a videoscope, purulent mucus was found in the pharyngeal cavity of seven children (3.6%); LS occurred in five of them (2.6%), and one child developed a fever (T = 37.8 °C) after discharge. Five children (2.6%) experienced emergence agitation (EA) in the recovery room. Also, 13 children (6.7%) experienced epistaxis; 10 had a mild experience and three had a moderate experience. No cases of airway obstruction (AO) and hypoxemia were recorded. The time to open eyes (TOE) was 16.3 ± 7.2 min. The incidence rate of complications was 23/195 (11.8%). Emergency tracheal reintubation was not required. Patients with mild upper respiratory tract infections showed a significantly higher incidence of complications (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Propofol-assisted deep extubation is a suitable technique that can be used for pediatric patients who exhibited non-cooperation in the outpatient setting. Epistaxis represents the most frequently encountered complication. Preoperative upper respiratory tract infection significantly increases the risk of complications. The occurrence of EA was notably lower than reported in other studies.

Adjusting Ion Diffusion Kinetics of Li Deposition Enabled by an Elastic Porous Melamine Sponge Host for Stable Lithium Metal Anodes.

Lithium (Li) dendritic growth and huge volume expansion seriously hamper Li-metal anode development. Herein, we design a lightweight 3D Li-ion-affinity host enabled by silver (Ag) nanoparticles fully decorating a porous melamine sponge (Ag@PMS) for dendrite-free and high-areal-capacity Li anodes. The compact Ag nanoparticles provide abundant preferred nucleation sites and give the host strong conductivity. Moreover, the high specific surface area and polar groups of the elastic, porous melamine sponge enhance the Li-ion diffusion kinetics, prompting homogeneity of Li deposition and stripping. As expected, the integrated 3D Ag@PMS-Li anode delivered a remarkable electrochemical performance, with a Coulombic efficiency (CE) of 97.14% after 450 cycles at 1 mA cm-2. The symmetric cell showed an ultralong lifespan of 3400 h at 1 mA cm-2 for 1 mAh cm-2. This study provides a facile and cost-effective strategy to design an advanced 3D framework for the preparation of a stable dendrite-free Li metal anode.

A predictive model for therapy failure in chronic myeloid leukemia patients receiving tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy.

Although tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy has markedly improved the survival of people with chronic-phase chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), 20-30% of people still experienced therapy failure. Data from 1,955 consecutive subjects with chronic-phase CML diagnosed by the European LeukemiaNet (ELN) recommendations from 1 center receiving initial TKI imatinib or a second-generation (2G-) TKI therapy were interrogated to develop a clinical prediction model for TKI therapy failure. This model was subsequently validated in 3,454 subjects from 76 other centers. Using the predictive clinical co-variates associated with TKI therapy failure, we developed a model that stratified subjects into low-, intermediate- and high-risk subgroups with significantly different cumulative incidences of therapy failure (p < 0.001). There was good discrimination and calibration in the external validation dataset, and the performance was consistent with that of the training dataset. Our model had the better prediction discrimination than the Sokal and ELTS scores did, with the greater time-dependent area under the receiver-operator characteristic curve (AUROC) values and a better ability to re-defined the risk of therapy failure. Our model could help physicians estimate the likelihood of initial imatinib or 2G-TKI therapy failure in people with chronic-phase CML.

Quantitative phosphoproteomics reveals molecular pathway network in wheat resistance to stripe rust.

Protein phosphorylation plays an important role in immune signaling transduction in plant resistance to pathogens. Wheat stripe rust, caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst), severely devastates wheat production. Nonetheless, the molecular mechanism of wheat resistance to stripe rust remains limited. In this study, quantitative phosphoproteomics was employed to investigate the protein phosphorylation changes in wheat challenged by Pst. A total of 1537 and 2470 differentially accumulated phosphoproteins (DAPs) were identified from four early infection stage (6, 12, 18 and 24 h post-inoculation) in incompatible and compatible wheat-Pst interactions respectively. KEGG analysis revealed that Oxidative Phosphorylation, Phosphatidylinositol Signaling, and MAPK signaling processes are distinctively enriched in incompatible interaction, while Biosynthesis of secondary metabolites and RNA degradation process were significantly enriched in compatible interactions. In particular, abundant changes in phosphorylation levels of chloroplast proteins were identified, suggesting the regulatory role of photosynthesis in wheat-Pst interaction, which is further emphasized by protein-protein interaction (PPI) network analysis. Motif-x analysis identified [xxxxSPxxxx] motif, likely phosphorylation sites for defensive response-related kinases, and a new [xxxxSSxxxx] motif significantly enriched in incompatible interaction. The results shed light on the early phosphorylation events contributing to wheat resistance against Pst. Moreover, our study demonstrated that the phosphorylation levels of Nucleoside diphosphate kinase TaNAPK1 are upregulated at 12 hpi with CYR23 and at 24 hpi with CYR31. Transient silencing of TaNAPK1 was able to attenuate wheat resistance to CYR23 and CYR31. Our study provides new insights into the mechanisms underlying Pst-wheat interactions and may provide database to find potential targets for the development of new resistant varieties.
