Novel humanized monoclonal antibodies against ROR1 for cancer therapy.

BACKGROUND: Overexpression of receptor tyrosine kinase-like orphan receptor 1 (ROR1) contributes to cancer cell proliferation, survival and migration, playing crucial roles in tumor development. ROR1 has been proposed as a potential therapeutic target for cancer treatment. This study aimed to develop novel humanized ROR1 monoclonal antibodies and investigate their anti-tumor effects. METHODS: ROR1 expression in tumor tissues and cell lines was analyzed by immunohistochemistry and flow cytometry. Antibodies from mouse hybridomas were humanized by the complementarity-determining region (CDR) grafting technique. Surface plasmon resonance spectroscopy, ELISA assay and flow cytometry were employed to characterize humanized antibodies. In vitro cellular assay and in vivo mouse experiment were conducted to comprehensively evaluate anti-tumor activity of these antibodies. RESULTS: ROR1 exhibited dramatically higher expression in lung adenocarcinoma, liver cancer and breast cancer, and targeting ROR1 by short-hairpin RNAs significantly inhibited proliferation and migration of cancer cells. Two humanized ROR1 monoclonal antibodies were successfully developed, named h1B8 and h6D4, with high specificity and affinity to ROR1 protein. Moreover, these two antibodies effectively suppressed tumor growth in the lung cancer xenograft mouse model, c-Myc/Alb-cre liver cancer transgenic mouse model and MMTV-PyMT breast cancer mouse model. CONCLUSIONS: Two humanized monoclonal antibodies targeting ROR1, h1B8 and h6D4, were successfully developed and exhibited remarkable anti-tumor activity in vivo.

Piperidine-based ionic liquid additive with electrostatic shielding and redox activity enabling advanced lithium-oxygen batteries.

Here, we propose a piperidine-based ionic liquid additive. The electrostatic shielding effect of the piperidine cation (PP13+) effectively inhibits the growth of lithium dendrites. Simultaneously, the redox activity of the bromine anion synergistically reduces the overpotential. This approach significantly improves the cycling performance of lithium-oxygen batteries.

A novel approach to calculate the required volume of air for bronchial blockers in young children.

INTRODUCTION: Bronchial blocker balloons inflated with small volumes of air increase balloon pressure, involving a risk of airway injury especially in young children. However, there are no established guidelines regarding the appropriate volumes of air required to provide safe bronchial occlusion. METHODS: This study aimed to introduce a novel method for calculating the amount of air required for safe bronchial blocker balloon occlusion for one lung anesthesia in young children. We included 79 pediatric patients who underwent video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery at our hospital. Preoperatively, the balloon pressure and corresponding diameter of 5F bronchial blockers inflated with different volumes of air were measured. Intraoperatively, bronchial diameters measured by computerized tomographic scans were matched to the ex vivo measured balloon diameters. The quality of lung isolation, incidence of balloon repositioning, and airway injury were documented. Postoperatively, airway injury was evaluated through fiberoptic bronchoscopy. RESULTS: Balloon pressure and balloon diameter showed linear and nonlinear correlations with volume, respectively. The median lengths of the right and left mainstem bronchi were median (interquartile range) range: 5.3 mm (4.5-6.3) 2.7-8.15 and 21.8 (19.6-23.4) 14-29, respectively. Occluding the left mainstem bronchus required <1 mL of air, with a balloon pressure of 27 cm H2O. The isolation quality was high with no case of mucosal injury or displacement. Occluding the right mainstem bronchus required a median air volume of 1.3 mL, with a median balloon pressure of 44 cm H2O. One patient had poor lung isolation due to a tracheal bronchus and another developed mild and transient airway injury. CONCLUSION: The bronchial blocker cuff should be regarded as a high-pressure balloon. We introduced a new concept for safe bronchial blocker balloon occlusion for one-lung ventilation in small children.

A 3-year follow-up analysis of renal function in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and an estimated glomerular filtration rate <90 mL/min/1.73m2: A retrospective cohort study.

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a risk factor for patients with impaired renal function. The onset of T2DM-induced diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is frequently sub-clinical, potentially culminating in end-stage renal disease. In the current study the factors influencing DKD in elderly patients diagnosed with T2DM were determined. A retrospective cohort study was conducted involving patients ≥60 years of age with T2DM from June 2019 to December 2022. The Cockcroft-Gault formula was used to estimate the glomerular filtration rate. The clinical information and biochemical indicators of patients with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) < 90 mL/min/1.73m2 were collected. Patients were grouped based on a 3-year eGFR decline < 15% and ≥ 15%. The differences between the two groups were compared and the factors influencing the 3-year eGFR decline ≥ 15% were analyzed. A total of 242 patients were included, including 154 in the group with a 3-year eGFR decline < 15% and 88 in the group with a three-year eGFR decline ≥ 15%. Univariate logistic regression analysis showed that smoking cigarettes, and triglycerides (TG) and high-density lipoprotein levels were related to a 3-year eGFR decline ≥ 15% (P = .039, P < .001, and P = .011, respectively). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the TG level was independently related to a 3-year eGFR decline ≥ 15% (P = .004; OR = 2.316). There was a significant linear relationship between the eGFR decline and TG level (P = .002). Patients with a TG concentration > 1.7 mmol/L had a more apparent decrease in the eGFR (P < .05). For elderly patients with T2DM and an eGFR < 90 mL/min/1.73m2, the TG level may be an important risk factor for deteriorating renal function that warrants actively intervention.

Epidemiological investigation of Senecavirus A infection in pig herds in China from 2018 to 2021.

Senecaviurs A (SVA) infection, an emerging infectious disease in pig populations, is characterized by vesicular lesions predominantly affecting the mouth, snout, and hooves of infected pigs, similar to the symptoms of Foot and Mouth Disease Virus (FMDV). This disease first spread into China in 2015, causing great panic in the pig breeding industry. To determine the prevalence of SVA in pig herds in China from 2018 to 2021, a total of 4,901 pig tissue samples were collected from 18 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities (P.A.M.s) for epidemiological investigation, virus isolation and genetic analysis. In 2021, the individual positive rates (IPRs) from the perspective of spatial distribution in East China, South China, Central China, North China, Southwest China, Northwest China, and Northeast China were 0, 0, 1.69, 0.94, 11.70, 3.31 and 2.21%, respectively. The herd positive rates (HPRs) were 0, 0, 9.52, 9.09, 50.00, 7.69 and 23.08%. From the perspective of temporal distribution, the IPR showed an overall downwards trend from 2018 to 2021, with only a slight increase in 2020. Moreover, the HPR decreased from 36.63 to 10.07%. From the perspective of population distribution in 2021, the IPR (2.62%) and HPR (12.00%) in apparently healthy pig herds (slaughterhouses) were greater than those in non-healthy pig herds (2.10 and 5.13%, respectively), consistent with the results in 2019. To characterize the prevalent strains, 10 SVA strains isolated from positive samples in 2019 were clustered in Clades I and VII; SVA-FJ039-2019, SVA-HuN032-2019, SVA-GX011-2019, SVA-FJ036-2019, SVA-GXF011-2019 and SVA-GXF053-2019 were clustered in Clade I; and SVA-FJ018-2019, SVA-SD069-2019, SVA-SD072-2019, and SVA-SD074-2019 were clustered in Clade VII. In conclusion, until 2021, the prevalence of SVA in pig herds in China was still relatively high, the contaminated area was still large, and there were a number of hidden infections. In the future, the epidemic status of SVA in pig herds in China must be closely monitored and the prevention and control measures must be adjusted in a timely manner.

Visible-Light-Mediated Ring-Opening Geminal Dibromination of Alkenes via Alkoxy Radicals Enabled by Electron Donor-Acceptor Complex.

An electron donor-acceptor complex was utilized to generate alkoxy radicals from alcohols under mild conditions using visible light. This approach was combined with a hydroxybromination process to achieve the deconstructive functionalization of alkenes, leading to the production of geminal dibromides. Mechanistic investigations indicated the intermediacy of hypervalent iodine (III) compounds.

Assessing ultrasound probe stabilization for quantifying speech production contrasts using the Adjustable Laboratory Probe Holder for UltraSound (ALPHUS).

Ultrasound imaging of the tongue is biased by the probe movements relative to the speaker's head. Two common remedies are restricting or algorithmically compensating for such movements, each with its own challenges. We describe these challenges in details and evaluate an open-source, adjustable probe stabilizer for ultrasound (ALPHUS), specifically designed to address these challenges by restricting uncorrectable probe movements while allowing for correctable ones (e.g., jaw opening) to facilitate naturalness. The stabilizer is highly modular and adaptable to different users (e.g., adults and children) and different research/clinical needs (e.g., imaging in both midsagittal and coronal orientations). The results of three experiments show that probe movement over uncorrectable degrees of freedom was negligible, while movement over correctable degrees of freedom that could be compensated through post-processing alignment was relatively large, indicating unconstrained articulation over parameters relevant for natural speech. Results also showed that probe movements as small as 5 mm or 2 degrees can neutralize phonemic contrasts in ultrasound tongue positions. This demonstrates that while stabilized but uncorrected ultrasound imaging can provide reliable tongue shape information (e.g., curvature or complexity), accurate tongue position (e.g., height or backness) with respect to vocal tract hard structure needs correction for probe displacement relative to the head.

Modified Sanliangsan Improved Sjogren's Syndrome Complicated with Interstitial Lung Disease by Suppressing Serum MUC1 Levels.

OBJECTIVES: To clarify if the mechanism of Sanliangsan in improving Sjogren's syndrome complicated with interstitial lung disease (SS-ILD) involves MUC1 suppression, which is involved in SS-ILD pathogenesis. METHODS: Fifty-six patients were randomly divided into two groups receiving Sanliangsan prescription (SP) therapy and conventional therapy (western medicine). In-depth transcriptome profiles from a large database of SS-ILD patients were collected and analyzed to identify candidate genes involved in SS pathogenesis. Clinical symptom scores, metabolic compositions, lung HRCT (high-resolution computed tomography) scores, and serum MUC1 levels were compared between the two groups before and after treatment. Network pharmacology, molecular docking, and ITC assays were performed to identify bioactive compounds of SP in improving SS. Metabolome analyzed the metabolic composition of serum associated with SS-ILD before and after SP treatment. RESULTS: Transcriptome results identified the involvement of abnormal expression of genes relevant to the immune system, inflammatory responses, and signaling pathways. Numerous genes, including CD58, CD86, CTLA4, CXCL8, STAT1, and especially MUC1, were involved in SS pathogenesis and could be used to diagnose SS-ILD early. Both treatments improved the lung HRCT scores and clinical symptoms of SS-ILD. The SP therapy improved SS-ILD more effectively than conventional therapy. Moreover, Sanliangsan prescription therapy reduced serum MUC1 levels and restored the abnormal metabolisms, improving the abnormal inflammatory and immune responses of patients. Eugenol directly interacted with MUC1, suppressed related genes, and was the bioactive compound of SP. SP could partially restore the abnormal metabolisms associated with SS-ILD pathogenesis. CONCLUSION: Based on conventional Western medicine treatment, modified Sanliangsan can significantly improve the clinical symptoms, signs, and lung function of patients; the mechanism may be due to eugenol and related to MUC1 regulation.

Reversible splenial lesion syndrome in Anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor encephalitis.

Here we described an 18-year-old woman who were initially misdiagnosed as psychiatric disorders in a psychiatric institution. She was transferred to our neurological ward because of impaired consciousness. Neuronal antibody testing confirmed the diagnosis of anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) encephalitis. Cerebral magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a concomitant disorder named reversible splenial lesion syndrome (RESLES). After administration of combined immunotherapy, the patient recovered completely 3 months after discharge. To our knowledge, co-occurrence of RESLES and anti-NMDAR encephalitis was only described in two patients with teratoma and we provide another case without teratoma. We highlight that anti-NMDAR antibodies can be added to the multiple causes of RESLES. It is therefore imperative for clinicians to detect anti-neuronal antibodies in patients with RESLES to avoid missed diagnosis.

SomaSeg: a robust neuron identification framework for two-photon imaging video.

Objective.Accurate neuron identification is fundamental to the analysis of neuronal population dynamics and signal extraction in fluorescence videos. However, several factors such as severe imaging noise, out-of-focus neuropil contamination, and adjacent neuron overlap would impair the performance of neuron identification algorithms and lead to errors in neuron shape and calcium activity extraction, or ultimately compromise the reliability of analysis conclusions.Approach.To address these challenges, we developed a novel cascade framework named SomaSeg. This framework integrates Duffing denoising and neuropil contamination defogging for video enhancement, and an overlapping instance segmentation network for stacked neurons differentiating.Main results.Compared with the state-of-the-art neuron identification methods, both simulation and actual experimental results demonstrate that SomaSeg framework is robust to noise, insensitive to out-of-focus contamination and effective in dealing with overlapping neurons in actual complex imaging scenarios.Significance.The SomaSeg framework provides a widely applicable solution for two-photon video processing, which enhances the reliability of neuron identification and exhibits value in distinguishing visually confusing neurons.

The impact of increasing ambient temperature on allergic rhinitis: A systematic review and meta-analysis of observational studies.

INTRODUCTION: Global warming appears to initiate and aggravate allergic respiratory conditions via interaction with numerous environmental factors. Temperature, commonly identified as a factor in climate change, is important in this process. Allergic rhinitis, a common respiratory allergy, is on the rise and affects approximately 500 million individuals worldwide. The increasing ambient temperature requires evaluation regarding its influence on allergic rhinitis, taking into account regional climate zones. METHODS: A detailed search of PubMed, EMBASE, Scopus, Web of Science, MEDLINE, and CINAHL Plus databases, was conducted, encompassing observational studies published from 1991 to 2023. Original studies examining the relationship between increasing temperature and allergic rhinitis were assessed for eligibility followed by a risk of bias assessment. Random effects meta-analysis was utilized to measure the association between a 1 °C increase in temperature and allergic rhinitis-related outcomes. RESULTS: 20 studies were included in the qualitative synthesis, with nine of them subsequently selected for the quantitative synthesis. 20 included studies were rated as Level 4 evidence according to the Oxford Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine, and the majority of these reported good-quality evidence based on the Newcastle-Ottawa Quality Rating Scale. Using the Risk of Bias In Non-Randomized Studies of Exposure tool, the majority of studies exhibit a high risk of bias. Every 1 °C increase in temperature significantly raised the risk of allergic rhinitis-related outcomes by 29 % (RR = 1.26, 95 % CI: 1.11 to 1.50). Conversely, every 1 °C rise in temperature showed no significant increase in the odds of allergic rhinitis-related outcomes by 7 % (OR = 1.07, 95 % CI: 0.95 to 1.21). Subsequent subgroup analysis identified climate zone as an influential factor influencing this association. CONCLUSION: It is inconclusive to definitively suggest a harmful effect of increasing temperature exposure on allergic rhinitis, due overall very low certainty of evidence. Further original research with better methodological quality is required.

The cytochrome P450 gene CYP4g1 driven by high temperature confers abamectin tolerance on Liriomyza trifolii through promoting cuticular hydrocarbons biosynthesis.

Liriomyza trifolii, an invasive pest, poses a substantial threat to horticultural and vegetable plants. It spreads rapidly, especially in hot weather, leading to large-scale outbreaks with strong thermotolerance and insecticide resistance. In this study, mortality and LtCYP4g1 expression in L. trifolii were evaluated after thermal and insecticides exposure. Furthermore, functional verification of LtCYP4g1 was conducted through RNA interference and bacterial survival assays in Escherichia coli containing recombinant LtCYP4g1 protein. Results indicated that a short time exposure to high temperature incresed insecticide tolerance of L. trifolii, attributed to decreased mortality and induced LtCYP4g1 expression; LtCYP4g1 was involved in stimulating synthesis of cuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs) and elevating epicuticle lipid content and thickness, and E. coli cells overexpressing LtCYP4g1 exhibited significant tolerance to thermal and insecticide stress. In general, P450-mediated tolerance of L. trifolii was enhanced by high temperature, with LtCYP4g1 playing a role in promoting biosynthesis of CHCs for thickening epidermal lipid barrier and reducing cuticular penetration. This study provides a framework for delving into the function of CYP450s in insecticide detoxification and illustrates the role of global warming in driving the evolution of L. trifolii.

The impact of Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibitor treatment on COVID-19 outcomes in Chinese patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

Background: Impact of B-cell depletion following treatment with Bruton tyrosine kinase-inhibitors (BTKi) on the outcome of SARS-CoV-2 infection in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) patients remain controversial. We investigated the impact of BTKi on susceptibility and the severity of COVID-19 in Chinese patients with CLL during the first wave of COVID-19 (Omicron variant). Methods: CLL patients (n=171) visiting the Institute of Hematology, Peoples' Hospital, China (November 15, 2022- January 20, 2023) were included in the study. Seventeen patients receiving BTKi and venetoclax with or without obinutuzumab were excluded. Data from 117 patients receiving treatment with BTKi were collected using a standardized questionnaire through telephone interviews. Thirty-four patients without CLL-specific treatment served as controls. The data was analysed using IBM SPSS Software version 21 and a P value of <0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: The median age of patients was 67 years and majority were males (n=100). Treatment with BTKi was not associated with higher incidence of COVID-19 (74% [95% Confidence Interval (CI) 60%, 92%]) versus 74% (CI 48%, 100%) without any treatment (P=0.92). Hypoxemia was reported by 45% (32%, 61%) and 16% (4%, 41%) (P=0.01). BTKi was the only independent risk factor of hypoxemia (Hazard Ratio [HR], 4.22 [1.32, 13.50]; P = 0.02). Five (5.7%) patients with COVID-19 under BTKi required ICU admission; 4 of them died. No ICU admissions/deaths were observed in the control group. Conclusion: In Chinese patients with CLL and treated with BTKi experienced more severe lung disease and ICU admissions due to COVID-19 than patients without CLL therapy. Frequency of infections with SARS-CoV-2, however, was not different in patients with or without BTKi treatment.

Fabrication of a decellularized liver matrix-based hepatic patch for the repair of CCl4-induced liver injury.

This article primarily introduces a new treatment for liver fibrosis/cirrhosis. We developed a hepatic patch by combining decellularized liver matrix (DLM) with the hepatocyte growth factor (HGF)/heparin-complex and evaluated its restorative efficacy. In vitro prophylactic results, the HGF/heparin-DLM patches effectively mitigated CCl4-induced hepatocyte toxicity and restored the cytotoxicity levels to the baseline levels by day 5. Furthermore, these patches restored albumin synthesis of injured hepatocytes to more than 70% of the normal levels within 5 days. In vitro therapeutic results, the urea synthesis of the injured hepatocytes reached 91% of the normal levels after 10 days of culture, indicating successful restoration of hepatic function by the HGF/heparin-DLM patches in both prophylactic and therapeutic models. In vivo results, HGF/heparin-DLM patches attached to the liver and gut exhibited a significant decrease in collagen content (4.44 times and 2.77 times, respectively) and an increase in glycogen content (1.19 times and 1.12 times, respectively) compared to the fibrosis group after 1 week, separately. In summary, liver function was restored and inflammation was inhibited through the combined effects of DLM and the HGF/heparin-complex in fibrotic liver. The newly designed hepatic patch holds promise for both in vitro and in vivo regeneration therapy and preventive health care for liver tissue engineering.

Molecular Engineering of Metal-Organic Frameworks for Boosting Photocatalytic Hydrogen Peroxide Production.

The development of novel metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) as efficient photocatalysts for hydrogen peroxide production from water and oxygen is particularly interesting, yet remains a challenge. Herein, we have prepared four cyclic trinuclear units (CTUs) based MOFs, exhibiting good light absorption ability and suitable band gaps for photosynthesis of H2O2. However, Cu-CTU-based MOFs are not able to photocatalyzed the formation of H2O2, while the alteration of metal nodes from Cu-CTU to Ag-CTU dramatically enhances the photocatalytic performance for H2O2 production and the production rates can reach as high as 17476 µmol g-1 h-1 with an apparent quantum yield of 4.72 %, at 420 nm, which is much higher than most reported MOFs. The photocatalytic mechanism is comprehensively studied by combining the isotope labeling experiments and DFT calculation. This study provides new insights into the preparation of MOF photocatalysts with high activity for H2O2 production through molecular engineering.

Drugs targeting CTGF in the treatment of pulmonary fibrosis.

Pulmonary fibrosis represents the final alteration seen in a wide variety of lung disorders characterized by increased fibroblast activity and the accumulation of substantial amounts of extracellular matrix, along with inflammatory damage and the breakdown of tissue architecture. This condition is marked by a significant mortality rate and a lack of effective treatments. The depositing of an excessive quantity of extracellular matrix protein follows the damage to lung capillaries and alveolar epithelial cells, leading to pulmonary fibrosis and irreversible damage to lung function. It has been proposed that the connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) plays a critical role in the advancement of pulmonary fibrosis by enhancing the accumulation of the extracellular matrix and exacerbating fibrosis. In this context, the significance of CTGF in pulmonary fibrosis is examined, and a summary of the development of drugs targeting CTGF for the treatment of pulmonary fibrosis is provided.

Population genetic structure of Pomacea canaliculata in China based on the COI and ITS1 genes.

Comprehending the phylogeography of invasive organisms enhances our insight into their distribution dynamics, which is instrumental for the development of effective prevention and management strategies. In China, Pomacea canaliculata and Pomacea maculata are the two most widespread and damaging species of the non-native Pomacea spp.. Given this species' rapid spread throughout country, it is urgent to investigate the genetic diversity and structure of its different geographic populations, a task undertaken in the current study using the COI and ITS1 mitochondrial and ribosomal DNA genes, respectively. The result of this study, based on a nationwide systematic survey, a collection of Pomacea spp., and the identification of cryptic species, showed that there is a degree of genetic diversity and differentiation in P. canaliculata, and that all of its variations are mainly due to differences between individuals within different geographical populations. Indeed, this species contains multiple haplotypes, but none of them form a systematic geographical population structure. Furthermore, the COI gene exhibits higher genetic diversity than the ITS1 gene. Our study further clarifies the invasive pathways and dispersal patterns of P. canaliculata in China to provide a theoretical basis.

Construction and experimental validation of a novel ferroptosis-related gene signature for myelodysplastic syndromes.

BACKGROUND: Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are clonal hematopoietic disorders characterized by morphological abnormalities and peripheral blood cytopenias, carrying a risk of progression to acute myeloid leukemia. Although ferroptosis is a promising target for MDS treatment, the specific roles of ferroptosis-related genes (FRGs) in MDS diagnosis have not been elucidated. METHODS: MDS-related microarray data were obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus database. A comprehensive analysis of FRG expression levels in patients with MDS and controls was conducted, followed by the use of multiple machine learning methods to establish prediction models. The predictive ability of the optimal model was evaluated using nomogram analysis and an external data set. Functional analysis was applied to explore the underlying mechanisms. The mRNA levels of the model genes were verified in MDS clinical samples by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). RESULTS: The extreme gradient boosting model demonstrated the best performance, leading to the identification of a panel of six signature genes: SREBF1, PTPN6, PARP9, MAP3K11, MDM4, and EZH2. Receiver operating characteristic curves indicated that the model exhibited high accuracy in predicting MDS diagnosis, with area under the curve values of 0.989 and 0.962 for the training and validation cohorts, respectively. Functional analysis revealed significant associations between these genes and the infiltrating immune cells. The expression levels of these genes were successfully verified in MDS clinical samples. CONCLUSION: Our study is the first to identify a novel model using FRGs to predict the risk of developing MDS. FRGs may be implicated in MDS pathogenesis through immune-related pathways. These findings highlight the intricate correlation between ferroptosis and MDS, offering insights that may aid in identifying potential therapeutic targets for this debilitating disorder.

The role of molecular chaperone CCT/TRiC in translation elongation: A literature review.

Protein synthesis from mRNA is an energy-intensive and strictly controlled biological process. Translation elongation is a well-coordinated and multifactorial step in translation that ensures the accurate and efficient addition of amino acids to a growing nascent-peptide chain encoded in the sequence of messenger RNA (mRNA). Which undergoes dynamic regulation due to cellular state and environmental determinants. An expanding body of research points to translational elongation as a crucial process that controls the translation of an mRNA through multiple feedback mechanisms. Molecular chaperones are key players in protein homeostasis to keep the balance between protein synthesis, folding, assembly, and degradation. Chaperonin-containing tailless complex polypeptide 1 (CCT) or tailless complex polypeptide 1 ring complex (TRiC) is an essential eukaryotic molecular chaperone that plays an essential role in assisting cellular protein folding and suppressing protein aggregation. In this review, we give an overview of the factors that influence translation elongation, focusing on different functions of molecular chaperones in translation elongation, including how they affect translation rates and post-translational modifications. We also provide an understanding of the mechanisms by which the molecular chaperone CCT plays multiple roles in the elongation phase of eukaryotic protein synthesis.
