ABSTRACT

In this work, three unique TbIII-carboxylate frameworks with the formula {[Tb2(OH)2(H2O)2(abtc)]·2H2O}n (1), {[Tb2(abtc)1.5(H2O)3(DMA)]·H2O}n (2) and {[Tb3(abtc)2.5(H2O)4]·H3O}n (3), each displaying structural variations, have been successfully synthesized by the solvothermal reactions of Tb(NO3)3·6H2O with the azo-containing ligand 3,3',5,5'-azobenzene tetracarboxylic acid (H4abtc) under varying conditions. Detailed single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SC-XRD) analysis manifested a remarkable diversity in these structures, demonstrating various coordination patterns of TbIII-metal nodes with the carboxylate groups of the organic linker, which contributed to the generation of intricate three-dimensional (3D) coordination networks with remarkable chemical resistance. Furthermore, frameworks 2 and 3, characterized by porous networks containing two and three independent TbIII-metal nodes, respectively, were both demonstrated to be efficient heterogeneous catalysts toward the cyanosilylation of imines under mild conditions with excellent reusability. In addition, direct current (Dc) magnetic susceptibility measurements conducted on frameworks 1, 2, and 3 indicated that there were obvious antiferromagnetic interactions among the TbIII-metal nodes, which suggests the involvement of intricate intra- and intertrimer exchange channels, adding another fascinating dimension to their physical properties.

ABSTRACT

A coherence sidelobe suppression method for a laser diode (LD) is proposed, based on the white-noise-current modulation and external cavity feedback. The theoretical model of the coherence of the white-noise-current-modulated external cavity laser (WECL) is established, which details the spectrum broadening mechanism and the coherence sidelobe suppression. At the noise current modulation, the coherence sidelobe induced by the internal cavity is lowered by the external cavity feedback, and the position of the coherence sidelobe induced by the external cavity is controlled with the cavity length, which can extend the coherence range without the sidelobes. The experimental results demonstrate that the 98.4% sidelobe suppression ratio (SLSR) of the WECL is achieved in dynamic interferometry, which is about 20% higher than that of the laser diode only with the white-noise-current modulation. This new, to the best of our knowledge, method can avoid the stray fringe cross talk caused by the multiple coherence sidelobes in the surface error measurements of parallel plates.

ABSTRACT

The viscosity and viscoelasticity of polyelectrolyte solutions with a single electrostatic interaction have been carefully studied experimentally and theoretically. Despite some theoretical models describe experimental results well, the influence of multiple interactions (electrostatic and hydrophobic) on rheological scaling is not yet fully resolved. Herein, we systematically study the microstructures and rheological properties of short-side-chain perfluorosulfonic acid (S-PFSA), the most promising candidate of a proton exchange membrane composed of a hydrophobic backbone with hydrophilic side-chains, in water/2-propanol. Small-angle X-ray scattering confirms that semiflexible S-PFSA colloidal particles with a length of ~38 nm and a diameter of 1-1.3 nm are formed, and the concentration dependence of the correlation length (ξ) obeys the power law ξ~c-0.5 consistent with the prediction of Dobrynin et al. By combining macrorheology with diffusing wave spectroscopy microrheology, the semidilute unentangled, semidilute entangled, and concentrated regimes corresponding to the scaling relationships ηsp~c0.5, ηsp~c1.5, and ηsp~c4.1 are determined. The linear viscoelasticity indicates that the entanglement concentration (ce) obtained from the dependence of ηsp on the polymer concentration is underestimated owing to hydrophobic interaction. The true entanglement concentration (cte) is obtained by extrapolating the plateau modulus (Ge) to the terminal modulus (Gt). Furthermore, Ge and the plateau width, τr/τe (τr and τe denote reptation time and Rouse time), scale as Ge~c2.4 and τr/τe~c4.2, suggesting that S-PFSA dispersions behave like neutral polymer solutions in the concentrated regime. This work provides mechanistic insight into the rheological behavior of an S-PFSA dispersion, enabling quantitative control over the flow properties in the process of solution coating.

ABSTRACT

Introduction: Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fisch, a traditional Chinese medicinal herb known for its diverse pharmacological effects including heat-clearing, detoxification, phlegm dissolving, and cough relief, has experienced an exponential increase in demand due to its expanding clinical use and development prospects. Currently, large-scale cell culture stands out as one of the most promising biotechnological approaches for producing bioactive compounds from medicinal plants. However, the problem of cell browning represents a significant bottleneck in industrial applications of cell culture. Methods: This study focuses on the Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fisch cells from the Ordos plateau, aiming to elucidate the enzymatic browning process during plant cell culture. Key substrates and genes involved in enzymatic browning were identified by metabolome and transcriptome analysis of normal and browning cells. Results: Metabolome analysis reveals significant changes in the levels of chalcone, isoflavone, imidazole-pyrimidine, purine nucleosides, organic oxides, carboxylic acids and their derivatives, benzene and its derivatives, flavonoids, 2-arylated benzofuran flavonoids, diazanaphthalenes and fatty acyls within browning cells. In particular, chalcones, isoflavones, and flavones compounds account for a higher proportion of these changes. Furthermore, these compounds collectively show enrichment in four metabolic pathways: Isoflavone biosynthesis pathway; Cutin suberine and wax biosynthesis pathway; Aminoacyl-tRNA biosynthesis pathway; Isoquinoline alkaloid biosynthesis pathway; Transcriptome analysis revealed that the MYB transcription factor is a key regulator of flavonoid synthesis during the browning process in cells. In addition, 223 differentially expressed genes were identified, including phenylpropane, shikimic acid, glycolysis, and pentose phosphate pathways. Among these genes, 23 are directly involved in flavonoid biosynthesis; qPCR validation showed that eight genes (GlPK, GlPAL, Gl24CL, Gl1PDT, Gl3CHI, GlC4H, Gl2F3'H, and Gl2CCR) were up-regulated in browning cells compared to normal cells. These findings corroborate the sequencing results and underscore the critical role of these genes in cellular browning. Discussion: Consequently, modulation of their expression offers promising strategies for effective control of cellular browning issues.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Long noncoding RNAs (LncRNAs) have been demonstrated to have significant roles in the carcinogenesis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). In this work, we sought to determine LncRNA SH3BP5-AS1's function and mechanism in the emergence of HCC. RESULTS: First, we discovered that the advanced tumor stage was strongly correlated with high levels of LncRNA SH3BP5-AS1 expression in HCC. MiR-6838-5p expression was down-regulated and inversely correlated with SH3BP5-AS1 expression. Additionally, overexpression of SH3BP5-AS1 boosted cell invasion, migration, and proliferation. The oncogenic effects of the inhibitor of miR-6838-5p were eliminated when PTPN4 was suppressed, following the identification of PTPN4 as a direct target of miR-6838-5p. In addition, SH3BP5-AS1 promoted cellular glycolysis via miR-6838-5p sponging and PTPN4 activation. Lastly, by directly interacting to the promoter of SH3BP5-AS1, HIF-1α could control the transcription of the gene. CONCLUSIONS: Our research suggests that SH3BP5-AS1 controls miR-6838-5p/PTPN4 in order to act as a new carcinogenic LncRNA during the growth of HCC cells. METHODS: The expression levels of SH3BP5-AS1, miR-6838-5p and PTPN4 were detected by qRT-PCR and Western blot. The effects of LncRNA SH3BP5-AS1/miR-6838-5p/PTPN4 on the proliferation, metastasis and glycolysis of HCC cells were clarified by experimental cellular functionality assays, cell derived xenograft and Glycolysis assay.

ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: The axillary lymph node status (ALNS) and internal mammary lymph nodes (IMLN) expression associated with breast cancer are closely linked to prognosis. This study aimed to establish a nomogram to predict survival at 3, 5, and 10 years in patients with various lymph node statuses. METHODS: We obtained data from patients with breast cancer between 2004 and 2015 from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER database). Chi-square analysis was performed to test for differences in the pathological characteristics of the groups, and Kaplan-Meier analysis and the log-rank test were used to plot and compare the correlation between overall survival (OS) and breast cancer specific survival (BCSS). The log-rank test was used for the univariate analysis, and statistically significant characteristics were included in the multivariate and Cox regression analyses. Finally, Independent factor identification was included in constructing the nomogram using R studio 4.2.0; area under curve (AUC) values were calculated, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, calibration, and decision curve analysis (DCA) curves were plotted for evaluation. RESULTS: A total of 279,078 patients were enrolled and analysed, demonstrating that the isolated tumour cells (ITC) group had clinicopathological characteristics similar to those of micrometastases (Mic). Multivariate analysis was performed to identify each subgroup's independent risk factors and construct a nomogram. The AUC values were 74.7 (95% CI 73.6-75.8), 72.8 (95% CI 71.9-73.8), and 71.2 (95% CI 70.2-72.2) for 3-, 5-, and 10-year OS, respectively, and 82.2 (95% CI 80.9-83.6), 80.1 (95% CI 79.0-81.2), and 75.5 (95% CI 74.3-76.8) for BCSS in overall breast cancer cases, respectively. AUC values for 3-, 5-, and 10-year OS in the ITC group were 64.8 (95% CI 56.5-73.2), 67.7 (95% CI 62.0-73.4), and 65.4 (95% CI 60.0-70.7), respectively. For those in the Mic group, AUC values for 3-, 5-, and 10-year OS were 72.9 (95% CI 70.7-75.1), 72.4 (95% CI 70.6-74.1), and 71.3 (95% CI 69.6-73.1), respectively, and AUC values for BCSS were 77.8 (95% CI 74.9-80.7), 75.7 (95% CI 73.5-77.9), and 70.3 (95% CI 68.0-72.6), respectively. In the IMLN group, AUC values for 3-, 5-, and 10-year OS were 75.2 (95% CI 71.7-78.7), 73.4 (95% CI 70.0-76.8), and 74.0 (95% CI 69.6-78.5), respectively, and AUC values for BCSS were 76.6 (95% CI 73.0-80.3), 74.1 (95% CI 70.5-77.7), and 74.7 (95% CI 69.8-79.5), respectively. The ROC, calibration, and DCA curves verified that the nomogram had better predictability and benefits. CONCLUSION: This study is the first to investigate the predictive value of different axillary lymph node statuses and internal mammary lymph node metastases in breast cancer, providing clinicians with additional aid in treatment decisions.

ABSTRACT

Glutamine synthetase (GS) is vital in maintaining ammonia and glutamate (Glu) homeostasis in living organisms. However, the natural enzyme relies on adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to activate Glu, resulting in impaired GS function during ATP-deficient neurotoxic events. To date, no reports demonstrate using artificial nanostructures to mimic GS function. In this study, we synthesize aggregation-induced emission active polyP-Mn nanosheets (STPE-PMNSs) based on end-labeled polyphosphate (polyP), exhibiting remarkable GS-like activity independent of ATP presence. Further investigation reveals polyP in STPE-PMNSs serves as phosphate source to activate Glu at low ATP levels. This self-feeding mechanism offers a significant advantage in regulating Glu homeostasis at reduced ATP levels in nerve cells during excitotoxic conditions. STPE-PMNSs can effectively promote the conversion of Glu to glutamine (Gln) in excitatory neurotoxic human neuroblastoma cells (SH-SY5Y) and alleviate Glu-induced neurotoxicity. Additionally, the fluorescence signal of nanosheets enables precise monitoring of the subcellular distribution of STPE-PMNSs. More importantly, the intracellular fluorescence signal is enhanced in a conversion-responsive manner, allowing real-time tracking of reaction progression. This study presents a self-sustaining strategy to address GS functional impairment caused by ATP deficiency in nerve cells during neurotoxic events. Furthermore, it offers a fresh perspective on the potential biological applications of polyP-based nanostructures.

ABSTRACT

In challenging environments, feature-based visual SLAM encounters frequent failures in frame tracking, introducing unknown poses to robotic applications. This paper introduces an immediate approach for recovering untracked camera poses. Through the retrieval of key information from elapsed untracked frames, lost poses are efficiently restored with a short time consumption. Taking account of reconstructed poses and map points during local optimizing, a denser local map is constructed around ambiguous frames to enhance the further SLAM procedure. The proposed method is implemented in a SLAM system, and monocular experiments are conducted on datasets. The experimental results demonstrate that our method can reconstruct the untracked frames in nearly real time, effectively complementing missing segments of the trajectory. Concurrently, the accuracy and robustness for subsequent tracking are improved through the integration of recovered poses and map points.

ABSTRACT

Natural rubber is an important national strategic and industrial raw material. The leaf anthracnose of rubber trees caused by the Colletotrichum species is one of the important factors restricting the yields of natural rubber. In this study, we isolated and identified strain Bacillus velezensis SF334, which exhibited significant antagonistic activity against both C. australisinense and C. siamense, the dominant species of Colletotrichum causing rubber tree leaf anthracnose in the Hainan province of China, from a pool of 223 bacterial strains. The cell suspensions of SF334 had a significant prevention effect for the leaf anthracnose of rubber trees, with an efficacy of 79.67% against C. siamense and 71.8% against C. australisinense. We demonstrated that SF334 can lead to the lysis of C. australisinense and C. siamense mycelia by causing mycelial expansion, resulting in mycelial rupture and subsequent death. B. velezensis SF334 also harbors some plant probiotic traits, such as secreting siderophore, protease, cellulase, pectinase, and the auxin of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), and it has broad-spectrum antifungal activity against some important plant pathogenic fungi. The genome combined with comparative genomic analyses indicated that SF334 possesses most genes of the central metabolic and gene clusters of secondary metabolites in B. velezensis strains. To our knowledge, this is the first time a Bacillus velezensis strain has been reported as a promising biocontrol agent against the leaf anthracnose of rubber trees caused by C. siamense and C. australisinense. The results suggest that B. velezensis could be a potential candidate agent for the leaf anthracnose of rubber trees.

ABSTRACT

Due to multidrug resistance and the high risk of recurrence, effective and less toxic alternative pancreatic cancer treatments are urgently needed. Pancreatic cancer cells are highly resistant to apoptosis but sensitive to ferroptosis. In this study, an innovative nanoplatform (AsIr@PDA) was developed by electrostatic adsorption of a cationic iridium complex (IrFN) onto two-dimensional (2D) arsenene nanosheets. This nanoplatform exhibits superior ferroptosis-inducing effects with high drug loading capacity and, importantly, excellent anti-cancer immune activation function, leading to efficient elimination of pancreatic tumors with no observable side effects. Interestingly, AsIr@PDA significantly prevents the recurrence of pancreatic cancer in vivo when compared with a cisplatin-loaded nanoplatform. This designed nanoplatform demonstrated superior therapeutic efficacy by synergistic ferroptosis-induced chemotherapy with immunotherapy via an all-in-one strategy, providing new insights for future pancreatic cancer therapy.

ABSTRACT

Overweight and obesity are identified by a high body mass index (BMI) and carry significant health risks due to associated comorbidities. Although epidemiologic data connect overweight/obesity with 13 cancer types, a better understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying this correlation is needed to improve prevention and treatment strategies. In this study, we conducted a comprehensive analysis of molecular differences between overweight or obese patients and normal weight patients across 14 different cancer types from The Cancer Genome Atlas. Using the propensity score weighting algorithm to control for confounding factors, obesity-specific mutational features were identified, such as higher mutation burden in rectal cancer and biased mutational signatures in other cancers. Differentially expressed genes (DEG) in tumors from patients with overweight/obesity were predominantly upregulated and enriched in inflammatory and hormone-related pathways. These DEGs were significantly associated with survival rates in various cancer types, highlighting the impact of elevated body fat on gene expression profiles and clinical outcomes in patients with cancer. Interestingly, while high BMI seemed to have a negative impact on most cancer types, the normal weight-biased mutational and gene expression patterns indicated overweight/obesity may be beneficial in endometrial cancer, suggesting the presence of an "obesity paradox" in this context. Body fat also significantly impacted the tumor microenvironment by modulating immune cell infiltration, underscoring the importance of understanding the interplay between weight and immune response in cancer progression. Together, this study systematically elucidates the molecular differences corresponding to body weight in multiple cancer types, offering potentially critical insights for developing precision therapy for patients with cancer. SIGNIFICANCE: Elucidation of the complex interplay between body weight and the molecular landscape of cancer could potentially guide tailored therapies and improve patient management amid the global obesity crisis.

ABSTRACT

Arsenic trioxide (As2O3) has achieved groundbreaking success in the treatment of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL). However, its toxic side effects seriously limit its therapeutic application in the treatment of solid tumors. To detoxify the severe side effects of arsenic, herein we synthesized innovative 2D ultrathin As2Se3 nanosheets (As2Se3 NSs) with synergistic photothermal-triggered immunotherapy effects. As2Se3 NSs are biocompatible and biodegradable under physiological conditions and can release As(III) and Se(0). Furthermore, selenium increases the immunomodulatory efficacy of arsenic treatments, facilitating reprogramming of the tumor microenvironment by As2Se3 NSs by enhancing the infiltration of natural killer cells and effector tumor-specific CD8+ T cells. The synergistic combination of photothermal therapy and immunotherapy driven by As2Se3 NSs via a simple but effective all-in-one strategy achieved efficient anticancer effects, addressing the key limitations of As2O3 for solid tumor treatment. This work demonstrates not only the great potential of selenium for detoxifying arsenic but also the application of 2D As2Se3 nanosheets for cancer therapy.

ABSTRACT

Intrauterine adhesion (IUA) is characterized by endometrial fibrosis. S100A8/A9 plays an important role in inflammation and fibroblast activation. However, the role of S100A8/A9 in IUA remains unclear. In this study, we collect normal and IUA endometrium to verify the expression of S100A8/A9. Human endometrial stromal cells (hEnSCs) are isolated to evaluate fibrosis progression after S100A8/A9 treatment. A porcine IUA model is established by electrocautery injury to confirm the therapeutic effect of menstrual blood-derived stromal cells (MenSCs) on IUA. Our study reveals increased S100A8/A9 expression in IUA endometrium. S100A8/A9 significantly enhances hEnSCs proliferation and upregulates fibrosis-related and inflammation-associated markers. Furthermore, S100A8/A9 induces hEnSCs fibrosis through the RAGE-JAK2-STAT3 pathway. Transplantation of MenSCs in a porcine IUA model notably enhances angiogenesis, mitigates endometrial fibrosis and downregulates S100A8/A9 expression. In summary, S100A8/A9 induces hEnSCs fibrosis via the RAGE-JAK2-STAT3 pathway, and MenSCs exhibit marked effects on endometrial restoration in the porcine IUA model.

ABSTRACT

There has been an ongoing search for clinically acceptable methods for the accurate,efficient and simple diagnosis and prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Optical spectroscopy is a technique with potential clinical applications to diagnose cancer diseases.The purpose of this study was to obtain the optical properties of HCC tissues and non-tumorous hepatic tissues and identify the difference between them.A total of 55 tissue samples (HCC tissue,n=38; non-tumorous hepatic tissue,n=17)were surgically resected from patients with HCC.The optical parameters were measured in 10-nm steps using single-integrating-sphere system in the wavelength range of 400 to 1800 nm.It was found that the optical properties and their differences varied with the wavelength for the HCC tissue and the non-tumorous hepatic tissue in the entire wavelength range of research.The absorption coefficient of the HCC tissue (1.48±0.99,1.46±0.88,0.86±0.61,2.15±0.53,0.54±0.10,0.79±0.15 mm-1) was significantly lower than that of the non-tumorous hepatic tissue (2.79±1.73,3.13±1.47,3.06±2.79,2.57±0.55,0.62±0.10,0.93±0.16 mm-1) at wavelengths of 400,410,450,1450,1660 and 1800 nm,respectively (P<0.05).The reduced scattering coefficient of HCC tissue (5.28±1.70,4.91±1.54,1.26±0.35 mm-1) and non-tumorous hepatic tissue (8.14±3.70,9.27±3.08,2.55±0.57 mm-1) was significantly different at 460,500 and 1800 nm respectively (P<0.05).These results show different pathologic liver tissues have different optical properties.It provides a better understanding of the relationship between optical parameters and physiological characteristics in human liver tissues.And it would be very useful for developing a non-invasive,real-time,simple and efficient way for medical management of HCC in the future.
