Identification of isoquinoline alkaloids from Corydalis mucronifera and their acetylcholinesterase inhibitory effects.

Four new spirobenzylisoquinoline mucroniferanines N - Q (1-4) and a rare chlorinated isoquinoline mucroniferanine R (5) were isolated from Corydalis mucronifera Maxim. Their structures were elucidated based on extensive spectroscopic data analysis of HRESIMS, 1D and 2D NMR, and their absolute configurations were confirmed by ECD data. The isolated compounds were evaluated for acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitory activities. Mucroniferanine R showed significant activities with IC50 values of 0.78 µM compared to galanthamine (1.34 µM). The AChE inhibitory activity was further supported by the molecular docking analysis that exhibited the accommodation of mucroniferanine R in the active site of human AChE.

An epigenetically mediated double negative cascade from EFD to HB21 regulates anther development.

Epigenetic modifications are crucial for plant development. EFD (Exine Formation Defect) encodes a SAM-dependent methyltransferase that is essential for the pollen wall pattern formation and male fertility in Arabidopsis. In this study, we find that the expression of DRM2, a de novo DNA methyltransferase in plants, complements for the defects in efd, suggesting its potential de novo DNA methyltransferase activity. Genetic analysis indicates that EFD functions through HB21, as the knockout of HB21 fully restores fertility in efd mutants. DNA methylation and histone modification analyses reveal that EFD represses the transcription of HB21 through epigenetic mechanisms. Additionally, we demonstrate that HB21 directly represses the expression of genes crucial for pollen formation and anther dehiscence, including CalS5, RPG1/SWEET8, CYP703A2 and NST2. Collectively, our findings unveil a double negative regulatory cascade mediated by epigenetic modifications that coordinates anther development, offering insights into the epigenetic regulation of this process.

Impurity-healing interface engineering for efficient perovskite submodules.

One issue that always strands the scaling-up development of perovskite photovoltaics is the significant efficiency drop when enlarging the device area, which is caused by the inhomogeneous distribution of defected sites1-3. In the narrow band gap formamidinium lead iodide (FAPbI3), the native impurities of PbI2 and δ-FAPbI3 non-perovskite could induce unfavored non-radiative recombination, as well as inferior charge transport and extraction 4,5.Here, we develop an impurity-healing interface engineering strategy to well address the issue both in small-area solar cell and large-scale submodule. With the introduction of a functional cation, 2-(1-cyclohexenyl)ethyl ammonium, two-dimensional (2D) perovskite with high mobility is rationally constructed on FAPbI3 to horizontally cover the film surface and vertically penetrate to the grain boundaries of 3D perovskites. Such unique configuration not only comprehensively transforms the PbI2 and δ-FAPbI3 impurities into stable 2D perovskite and realize a uniform defect passivation, but also provides interconnecting channels for efficient carrier transport. As a result, the FAPbI3-based small-area (0.085 cm2) solar cells achieve a champion efficiency over 25.86% with a notably high fill factor (FF) of 86.16%. More encouragingly, the fabricated submodules with the aperture area of 715.1 cm2 obtain a certified record efficiency of 22.46% with a good FF of 81.21%, showcasing the feasibility and effectualness of the impurity-healing interface engineering for scaling-up promotion with well-preserved photovoltaic performance.

Ruthenium(ii)-Arene Complex Triggers Immunogenic Ferroptosis for Reversing Drug Resistance.

Chemoresistance remains an arduous challenge in oncology, but ferroptosis shows potential for overcoming it by stimulating the immune system. Herein, a novel high-performance ruthenium(II)-based arene complex [Ru(η6-p-cym)(BTBpy)Cl] (RuBTB) is developed for ferroptosis-enhanced antitumor immunity and drug resistance reversal via glutathione (GSH) metabolism imbalance. RuBTB shows significantly enhanced antiproliferation activity against cisplatin (CDDP)-resistant lung cancer cells (A549R), with 26.35-fold better anticancer effects than CDDP. Immunogenic ferroptosis is induced by GSH depletion/glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) inactivation, mitochondrial dysfunction, and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in RuBTB-treated cells. Mechanism studies indicate that RuBTB regulates ferroptosis and immune-related pathways, coordinating with GSH metabolism-mediated glutathione S-transferase (GST) inhibition to reverse drug resistance in platinum-combined therapy. Tumor vaccination experiments demonstrate the intensified antitumor effects endowed by highly immunogenic ferroptosis in vivo. This study provides the first example of a metal-arene complex for achieving satisfactory ferroptosis therapeutic effects with efficient immunogenicity to overcome drug resistance in metal-based immunochemotherapy.

Direct Synthesis for Benzofuro[3,2-d]pyrimidin-2-Amines via One-Pot Cascade [4 + 2] Annulation/Aromatization between Benzofuran-Derived Azadienes and Carbodiimide Anions.

The chemoselective [4+2] annulation/aromatization reactions between benzofuran-derived azadienes and N-Ts cyanamides are developed, affording a convenient method for synthesizing benzofuro[3,2-d]pyrimidin-2-amines under mild conditions. Herein, N-Ts cyanamides selectively participated in reactions absolutely via carbodiimide anion intermediates and the corresponding cyanamide anion intermediates derived products were not observed. The proposed chemoselective stepwise reaction mechanism was well supported by DFT calculations.

Antiviral Chlorinated Drimane Meroterpenoids from the Fungus Talaromyces pinophilus LD-7 and Their Biosynthetic Pathway.

Ten new drimane meroterpenoids talarines A-J (1-10), along with six known analogues (11-16), were isolated from desert soil-derived fungus Talaromyces pinophilus LD-7. Their 2D structures were elucidated by comprehensive interpretation of NMR and HRESIMS data. Electronic circular dichroism calculation was used to establish their absolute configurations. Compounds 2, 10, and 11 showed antiviral activities toward vesicular stomatitis virus with IC50 values of 18, 15, and 23 nM, respectively. The structure-bioactivity relationship indicated that chlorine substitution at C-5 contributed greatly to their antiviral activities. Finally, we identified a new halogenase outside the biosynthetic gene cluster, which was responsible for C-5 halogenation of the precursor isocoumarin 17 as a tailoring step in chlorinated meroterpenoids assembly.

Acupuncture Modulation of Chronic Neuropathic Pain and Its Association With Brain Functional Properties.

Chronic neuropathic pain has been one of the prominent causes of disability, and acupuncture has shown promise in treatment. The present study aimed to characterize acupuncture modulation of chronic neuropathic pain and explore the related functional brain changes. Sixty chronic sciatica patients were divided into acupuncture- or sham acupuncture groups and received 10 sessions of treatment during 4 weeks. The visual analog scale for leg pain, oswestry disability index (ODI), and resting-state functional magnetic resonance images were assessed at baseline and after treatment. Then, fractional amplitudes of low-frequency fluctuations (fALFF) and support vector regression analyses were performed. Compared with sham acupuncture, acupuncture significantly improved symptoms, including visual analog scale for leg pain and ODI. In addition, acupuncture exhibited increased fALFF of the right superior parietal lobule (SPL) and right postcentral gyrus. Furthermore, the actual 4-week ODI values were positively correlated with the support vector regression-predicted values based on the right SPL fALFF and baseline clinical measurements. These results indicate that the spontaneous neural activity of the right SPL and right postcentral gyrus may be involved in the modulation of acupuncture in chronic neuropathic pain. In addition, the spontaneous neural activity of the right SPL might be used as the predictor of response to acupuncture therapy. PERSPECTIVE: This clinical neuroimaging study elucidated the neural basis of acupuncture in chronic sciatica. Neurological indicators and clinical measurements could be used as potential predictors of acupuncture response. This study combines neuroimaging and artificial intelligence techniques to highlight the potential of acupuncture for the treatment of chronic neuropathic pain.

Therapeutic application of extracellular vesicular EGFR isoform D as a co-drug to target squamous cell cancers with tyrosine kinase inhibitors.

Targeting wild-type epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) using tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) never achieved its purported success in cancers such as head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, which are largely EGFR-dependent. We had previously shown that exceptional responders to TKIs have a genetic aberration that results in overexpression of an EGFR splice variant, isoform D (IsoD). IsoD lacks an integral transmembrane and kinase domain and is secreted in extracellular vesicles (EVs) in TKI-sensitive patient-derived cultures. Remarkably, the exquisite sensitivity to TKIs could be transferred to TKI-resistant tumor cells, and IsoD protein in the EV is necessary and sufficient to transfer the phenotype in vitro and in vivo across multiple models and drugs. This drug response requires an intact endocytic mechanism, binding to full-length EGFR, and signaling through Src-phosphorylation within the endosomal compartment. We propose a therapeutic strategy using EVs containing EGFR IsoD as a co-drug to expand the use of TKI therapy to EGFR-driven cancers.

Ultrafast Visual Detection of a Trace Amount of Water by Highly Efficient Hybrid Manganese Halides.

A quantitative water detection method is urgently needed in storage facilities, space exploration, and the chemical industry. Although numerous physical techniques have been widely utilized to determine the water content, they still suffer from many disadvantages such as highly expensive special instruments, complicated analysis processes, etc. Hence, a convenient, rapid, and sensitive water analysis method is highly desirable. Herein, we developed a visual fluorescence sensing technology for water detection based on reversible PL off-on switching of organic-inorganic hybrid zero-dimensional (0D) manganese halides. In this work, a family of hybrid manganese halides were synthesized through a facile solution method, namely, [NH4(18-Crown-6)]2MnBr4, [Ca(18-Crown-6)·3H2O](18-Crown-6)MnBr4, [NH4(dibenzo-18-Crown-6)]2MnBr4, and [Ca(dibenzo-18-Crown-6)·2H2O]MnBr4. Excited by UV light, these highly crystalline manganese halides exhibit strong green light emissions from the d-d electron transition of Mn2+ with near-unity photoluminescence quantum yield and submillisecond lifetime. Benefiting from the dynamic and weak ionic bonding interactions, these 0D manganese halides display reversible water-response on/off luminescence switching but fail in any other aprotic solvents. Therefore, these 0D hybrid manganese halides can be explored as ultrafast visual fluorescence probes to detect the trace amount of water in organic solvents with multiple superiorities of rapid response time (< 2 s), ultralow detection limit (9.71 ppm), excellent repeatability, etc. The reversible water-response luminescent on/off switching also provides a binary optical gate with advanced applications in anticounterfeiting and information security, etc.

Numerical Simulation and ANN Prediction of Crack Problems within Corrosion Defects.

Buried pipelines are widely used, so it is necessary to analyze and study their fracture characteristics. The locations of corrosion defects on the pipe are more susceptible to fracture under the influence of internal pressure generated during material transportation. In the open literature, a large number of studies have been conducted on the failure pressure or residual strength of corroded pipelines. On this basis, this study conducts a fracture analysis on buried pipelines with corrosion areas under seismic loads. The extended finite element method was used to model and analyze the buried pipeline under seismic load, and it was found that the stress value at the crack tip was maximum when the circumferential angle of the crack was near 5° in the corrosion area. The changes in the stress field at the crack tip in the corrosion zone of the pipeline under different loads were compared. Based on the BP algorithm, a neural network model that can predict the stress field at the pipe crack tip is established. The neural network is trained using numerical model data, and a prediction model with a prediction error of less than 10% is constructed. The crack tip characteristics were further studied using the BP neural network model, and it was determined that the tip stress fluctuation range is between 450 MPa and 500 MPa. The neural network model is optimized based on the GA algorithm, which solves the problem of convergence difficulties and improves the prediction accuracy. According to the prediction results, it is found that when the internal pressure increases, the corrosion depth will significantly affect the crack tip stress field. The maximum error of the optimized neural network is 5.32%. The calculation data of the optimized neural network model were compared with the calculation data of other models, and it was determined that GA-BPNN has better adaptability in this research problem.

Co-mutation of OsLPR1/3/4/5 provides a promising strategy to minimize Cd contamination in rice grains.

Minimizing cadmium (Cd) contamination in rice grains is crucial for ensuring food security and promoting sustainable agriculture. Utilizing genetic modification to generate rice varieties with low Cd accumulation is a promising strategy due to its cost-effectiveness and operational simplicity. Our study demonstrated that the CRISPR-Cas9-mediated quadruple mutation of the multicopper oxidase genes OsLPR1/3/4/5 in the japonica rice cultivar Tongjing 981 had little effect on yields. However, a notable increase was observed in the cell wall functional groups that bind with Cd. As a result, the quadruple mutation of OsLPR1/3/4/5 enhanced Cd sequestration within the cell wall while reducing Cd concentrations in both xylem and phloem sap, thereby inhibiting Cd transport from roots to shoots. Consequently, Cd concentrations in brown rice and husk in oslpr1/3/4/5 quadruple mutants (qm) decreased by 52% and 55%, respectively, compared to the wild-type. These findings illustrate that the quadruple mutation of OsLPR1/3/4/5 is an effective method for minimizing Cd contamination in rice grains without compromising yields. Therefore, the quadruple mutation of OsLPR1/3/4/5 via biotechnological pathways may represent a valuable strategy for the generation of new rice varieties with low Cd accumulation.

Association between heme oxygenase-1 and hyperlipidemia in pre-diabetic patients: a cross-sectional study.

Background: Although the importance and benefit of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) in diabetes rodent models has been known, the contribution of HO-1 in the pre-diabetic patients with hyperlipidemia risk still remains unclear. This cross-sectional study aims to evaluate whether HO-1 is associated with hyperlipidemia in pre-diabetes. Methods: Serum level of HO-1 was detected using commercially available ELISA kit among 1,425 participants aged 49.3-63.9 with pre-diabetes in a multicenter Risk Evaluation of cAncers in Chinese diabeTic Individuals: A lONgitudinal (REACTION) prospective observational study. Levels of total cholesterol (TC) and triglyceride (TG) were measured and used to defined hyperlipidemia. The association between HO-1 and hyperlipidemia was explored in different subgroups. Result: The level of HO-1 in pre-diabetic patients with hyperlipidemia (181.72 ± 309.57 pg/ml) was obviously lower than that in pre-diabetic patients without hyperlipidemia (322.95 ± 456.37 pg/ml). High level of HO-1 [(210.18,1,746.18) pg/ml] was negatively associated with hyperlipidemia (OR, 0.60; 95% CI, 0.37-0.97; p = 0.0367) after we adjusted potential confounding factors. In subgroup analysis, high level of HO-1 was negatively associated with hyperlipidemia in overweight pre-diabetic patients (OR, 0.50; 95% CI, 0.3-0.9; p = 0.034), especially in overweight women (OR, 0.42; 95% CI, 0.21-0.84; p = 0.014). Conclusions: In conclusion, elevated HO-1 level was negatively associated with risk of hyperlipidemia in overweight pre-diabetic patients, especially in female ones. Our findings provide information on the exploratory study of the mechanism of HO-1 in hyperlipidemia, while also suggesting that its mechanism may be influenced by body weight and gender.

Keratinocyte-derived small extracellular vesicles delay diabetic wound healing by triggering fibroblasts autophagy.

Keratinocyte and fibroblast dysfunctions contribute to delayed healing of diabetic wounds. Small extracellular vesicles (sEV) are key mediators of intercellular communication and are involved in the pathogenesis of several diseases. Recent findings suggest that sEV derived from high-glucose-treated keratinocyte (HaCaT-HG-sEV) can transport LINC01435 to inhibit tube formation and migration of HUVECs, thereby delaying wound healing. This study aimed to elucidate sEV-related communication mechanisms between keratinocytes and fibroblasts during diabetic wound healing. HaCaT-HG-sEV treatment and LINC01435 overexpression significantly decreased fibroblast collagen level and migration ability but significantly increased fibroblast autophagy. However, treatment with an autophagy inhibitor suppressed LINC01435 overexpression-induced decrease in collagen levels in fibroblasts. In diabetic mice, HaCaT-HG-sEV treatment decreased collagen levels and increased the expression of the autophagy-related proteins Beclin-1 and LC3 at the wound site, thereby delaying wound healing. Conclusively, LINC01435 in keratinocyte-derived sEV activates fibroblast autophagy and reduces fibroblast collagen synthesis, leading to impaired diabetic wound healing.

Diabetic foot ulcers are a serious complication of diabetes and can lead to amputation and death. Therefore, it is crucial to comprehensively elucidate the mechanisms of delayed diabetic wound healing, with emphasis on the role of keratinocyte-derived small extracellular vesicles. In vivo and in vitro experiments showed that keratinocyte-derived small extracellular vesicles suppressed diabetic wound healing, which is partly attributed to the effects of their content (LINC01435) in fibroblasts. This study suggests that LINC01435 could be targeted to regulate diabetic wound healing.

Independent and interactive associations of heart rate and obesity with type 2 diabetes mellites: A population-based study.

BACKGROUND: Although obesity and heart rate (HR) were closely related to the prevalence and development of type 2 diabetes mllitus (T2DM), few studies have shown a co-association effect of them on T2DM. We aimed at assessing the interactive effects of HR and obesity with prevalence of T2DM in Chinese population, providing the exact cutpoint of the risk threshold for blood glucose with high HR. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In the Risk Evaluation of cAncers in Chinese diabeTic Individuals: a lONgitudinal study (REACTION) cohorts (N = 8398), the relationship between HR and T2DM was explored by linear regression, logistic regression, and restricted cubic spline, and odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated. Interaction terms between HR and body mass index (BMI) and HR and waist circumference (WC) were introduced into the logistic regression model. RESULTS: In those with HR > 88.0 beats/min, fasting plasma glucose and oral glucose tolerance tests were significantly correlated with HR, and the prevalence of T2DM was highly correlated with HR (all p < .05). There were interactive associations of HR and obesity in patients with T2DM with HR < 74 beats/min. CONCLUSION: High HR was in interaction with obesity, associating with prevalence of T2DM. The newly subdivided risk threshold for HR with T2DM might be HR > 88 beats/minute.

Increased risk of preterm birth due to heat exposure during pregnancy: Exploring the mechanism of fetal physiology.

BACKGROUND: Heat exposure during pregnancy can increase the risk of preterm birth (PTB) through a range of potential mechanisms including pregnancy complications, hormone secretion and infections. However, current research mainly focuses on the effect of heat exposure on pathophysiological pathways of pregnant women, but ignore that maternal heat exposure can also cause physiological changes to the fetus, which will affect the risk of PTB. OBJECTIVE: In this study, we aimed to explore the mediating role of fetal heart rate (FHR) in the relationship between maternal heat exposure and PTB incidence. METHODS: We assigned heat exposure to a multi-center birth cohort in China during 2015-2018, which included all 162,407 singleton live births with several times FHR measurements during the second and third trimesters. We examined the associations between heat exposure, FHR and PTB in the entire pregnancy, each trimester and the last gestational month. The inverse odds ratio-weighted approach applied to the Cox regression was used to identify the mediation effect of heat exposure on PTB and its clinical subtypes via FHR. FINDINGS: Exposure to heat significantly increased the risk of PTB during the third trimester and the entire pregnancy, hazard ratios and 95 % CIs were 1.266 (1.161, 1.379) and 1.328 (1.218, 1.447). Heat exposure during the third trimester and entire pregnancy increased FHR in the third trimester by 0.24 bpm and 0.14 bpm. The proportion of heat exposure mediated by FHR elevation on PTB and its subtype ranged from 3.68 % to 24.06 %, with the significant mediation effect found for both medically indicated PTB and spontaneous PTB. CONCLUSIONS: This study suggests that heat exposure during pregnancy has an important impact on fetal health, and FHR, as a surrogate marker of fetal physiology, may mediate the increased risk of PTB caused by extreme heat. Monitoring and managing physiological changes in the fetus would constitute a promising avenue to reduce adverse birth outcomes associated with maternal heat exposure.

Intermittent Fasting-Improved Glucose Homeostasis Is Not Entirely Dependent on Caloric Restriction in db/db Male Mice.

Intermittent fasting (IF), which involves prolonged fasting intervals accompanied by caloric restriction (CR), is an effective dietary treatment for obesity and diabetes. Although IF offers many benefits, it is difficult to determine whether these benefits are the consequences of CR. Every-other-day feeding (EODF) is a commonly used IF research model. This study was designed to identify factors, in addition to CR, responsible for the effects of EODF and the possible underlying mechanisms. Diabetic db/db mice were divided into three groups: ad libitum (AL), meal feeding (MF), and EODF. The MF model was used to attain a level of CR comparable to that of EODF, with food distribution evenly divided between 10:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m., thereby minimizing the fasting interval. EODF yielded greater improvements in glucose homeostasis than MF in db/db mice by reducing fasting glucose levels and enhancing glucose tolerance. However, these effects on glucose metabolism were less pronounced in lean mice. Furthermore, ubiquitination of the liver-specific glucocorticoid (GC) receptor (GR) facilitated its degradation and downregulation of Kruppel-like factor 9 (KLF9), which ultimately suppressed liver gluconeogenesis in diabetic EODF mice. Although GR and KLF9 might mediate the metabolic benefits of EODF, the potential benefits of EODF might be limited by elevated serum GC levels in diabetic EODF mice. Overall, this study suggests that the metabolic benefits of EODF in improving glucose homeostasis are independent of CR, possibly because of the downstream effects of liver-specific GR degradation.

Discovery of N-benzyl-6-methylpicolinamide as a potential scaffold for bleaching herbicides.

BACKGROUND: In pesticide research, bleaching herbicides have always been a hot topic. Our previous research showed that N-(4-fluorobenzyl)-2-methoxybenzamide is an innovative lead compound for bleaching herbicides. RESULTS: A total of 40 derivatives of picolinamides were prepared and evaluated for their herbicidal activity by Petri dish tests and postemergence trials. The structure-activity relationship (SAR) revealed that introducing electron-withdrawing groups at the 3- or 4-positions of the benzyl significantly enhances herbicidal activity. Furthermore, ZI-04 induced similar symptoms such as bleaching effect in treated weeds and accumulation of biosynthetic precursors for carotenoids as observed with diflufenican. ZI-04 also exhibited significant cross-resistance to diflufenican and had a lower resistance risk than diflufenican. CONCLUSION: N-benzyl-6-methylpicolinamides were discovered as a novel scaffold for bleaching herbicides. The accumulation of phytoene, phytofluene and ζ-Carotene in radish cotyledons, and cross-resistance observed with diflufenican, showed that title compounds can interfere with carotenoid biosynthesis. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.

[C(NH2)3][B(C2O2H4)2]: An Organic-Inorganic Hybrid Borate Containing Nonlinear-Optical Active Unit [B(C2O2H4)2]- with Solar-Blind-Region Optical Nonlinearity.

We herein report an unprecedented organic-inorganic hybrid borate incorporating a novel nonlinear-optical (NLO) active unit, namely, [C(NH2)3][B(C2O2H4)2]. The novel NLO active unit was derived from the condensation reaction between two glycol molecules and one (BO4)5- group. The title compound exhibits a moderate second-harmonic-generation effect (0.7 × KDP), a significant band gap (5.76 eV), and a suitable birefringence (0.078 at 550 nm). The optical properties are determined by the synergistic interaction between the C(NH2)3+ cation and the [B(C2O2H4)2]- group, as indicated by theoretical calculations.

[C(NH2)3]6Mo7O24: A Guanidinium Molybdate as a UV Nonlinear Optical Crystal with Large Birefringence.

The key to searching novel nonlinear optical (NLO) crystals was effectively combining the NLO-active units to obtain a noncentrosymmetric structure. Nevertheless, the present predicament lies in the growing challenge of discovering novel crystals within conventional inorganic frameworks that surpass the properties of the current NLO materials. In view of this, researchers expanded their research focus to the organic-inorganic hybridization system; it is foreseeable to concentrate the advantages from several kinds of NLO-active units to acquire novel NLO crystals with superior properties. We herein report an organic-inorganic hybrid molybdate crystal, namely, [C(NH2)3]6Mo7O24 (GMO). It was successfully obtained via combining inorganic NLO-active MoO6 octahedra and organic π-conjugated [C(NH2)3]+ groups. GMO demonstrates a moderate second-harmonic-generation response, specifically measuring about 1.3 times the value of KDP. Additionally, it exhibits a significant birefringence value of 0.203 at the wavelength of 550 nm and possesses a wide band gap of 3.31 eV. Theoretical calculations suggest that the optical properties of the GMO are primarily influenced by the synergy effect of [C(NH2)3]+ groups between MoO6 octahedra.
