RESUMO
The liver, a complex parenchymal organ, possesses a distinctive microcirculatory system crucial for its physiological functions. An intricate interplay exists between hepatic microcirculatory disturbance and the manifestation of pathological features in diverse liver diseases. This review updates the main characteristics of hepatic microcirculatory disturbance, including hepatic sinusoidal capillarization, narrowing of sinusoidal space, portal hypertension, and pathological angiogenesis, as well as their formation mechanisms. It also summarized the detection methods for hepatic microcirculation. Simultaneously, we have also reviewed the characteristics of microcirculatory disturbance in diverse liver diseases such as acute liver failure, hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury, viral hepatitis, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, hepatic fibrosis, hepatic cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. Finally, this review also summarizes the advancement in hepatic microcirculation attributed to traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and its active metabolites, providing novel insights into the application of TCM in treating liver diseases.
RESUMO
To alleviate bone loss, most current drugs target osteoclasts. Saikosaponin A (Ssa), a triterpene saponin derived from Bupleurum falcatum (also known as Radix bupleuri), has immunoregulatory, neuromodulatory, antiviral, anticancer, anti-convulsant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-proliferative effects. Recently, modulation of bone homeostasis was shown to involve ferroptosis. Herein, we aimed to determine Ssa's inhibitory effects on osteoclastogenesis and differentiation, whether ferroptosis is involved, and the underlying mechanisms. Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining, F-actin staining, and pit formation assays were conducted to confirm Ssa-mediated inhibition of RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis in vitro. Ssa could promote osteoclast ferroptosis and increase mitochondrial damage by promoting lipid peroxidation, as measured by iron quantification, FerroOrange staining, Dichloro-dihydro-fluorescein diacetate, MitoSOX, malondialdehyde, glutathione, and boron-dipyrromethene 581/591 C11 assays. Pathway analysis showed that Ssa can promote osteoclasts ferroptosis by inhibiting the Nrf2/SCL7A11/GPX4 axis. Notably, we found that the ferroptosis inhibitor ferrostatin-1 and the Nrf2 activator tert-Butylhydroquinone reversed the inhibitory effects of Ssa on RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis. In vivo, micro-computed tomography, hematoxylin and eosin staining, TRAP staining, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays, and immunofluorescence confirmed that in rats with periodontitis induced by lipopolysaccharide, treatment with Ssa reduced alveolar bone resorption dose-dependently. The results suggested Ssa as a promising drug to treat osteolytic diseases.
RESUMO
A mild Pd-catalyzed three-component cascade cyclization functionalization of o-iodostyrenes, internal alkynes and boron reagents is presented. The transformation is driven by a controlled reaction sequence of intermolecular carbopalladation, intramolecular Heck-type cyclization, and a borylation process to give versatile boryl-functionalized indene skeletons in a selective fashion. Significantly, (Bpin)2, (Bneop)2 and CH2(Bpin)2 as boron sources are all tolerated. Additionally, the synthetic utility of this approach is demonstrated by gram-scale synthesis and synthetic transformations.
RESUMO
As we all know, cancer is still a disease that we are struggling against. Although the traditional treatment options are still the mainstream in clinical practice, emerging phototheranostics technologies based on photoacoustic or fluorescence imaging-guided phototherapy also provide a new exploration direction for non-invasive, low-risk and highly efficient cancer treatment. Photosensitizers are the core materials to accomplish this mission. Recently, more attention has been paid to the emerging A-D-A fused-ring photosensitizers. A-D-A fused-ring photosensitizers display strong and wide absorption spectra, high photostability and easy molecular modification. Since this type of photosensitizer was first used for tumor therapy in 2019, its application boundaries are constantly expanding. Therefore, in this feature article, from the perspective of molecular design, we focused on the development of these molecules for application in phototheranostics over the past five years. The effects of tiny structural changes on their photophysical properties are discussed in detail, which provides a way for structural optimization of the subsequent A-D-A photosensitizers.

BACKGROUND: Parkinson's disease (PD) is a prevalent neurodegenerative disorder, marked by the degeneration of dopamine (DA) neurons in the substantia nigra (SN). Current evidence strongly suggests that neuroinflammation, primarily mediated by microglia, contributes to PD pathogenesis. Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (TREM2) might serve as a promising therapeutic target for PD due to its ability to suppress neuroinflammation. Dihydroquercetin (DHQ) is an important natural dihydroflavone and confers apparent anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and anti-fibrotic effects. Recently, DHQ-mediated neuroprotection was exhibited. However, the specific mechanisms of its neuroprotective effects remain incompletely elucidated. METHODS: In this study, rat models were utilized to induce damage to DA neurons using lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) to assess the impacts of DHQ on the loss of DA neurons. Furthermore, DA neuronal MN9D cells and microglial BV2 cells were employed to investigate the function of TREM2 in DHQ-mediated DA neuroprotection. Finally, TREM2 knockout mice were used to investigate whether the neuroprotective effects mediated by DHQ through a mechanism dependent on TREM2. RESULTS: The main findings demonstrated that DHQ effectively protected DA neurons against neurotoxicity induced by LPS and 6-OHDA and inhibited microglia-elicited neuroinflammation. Meanwhile, DHQ promoted microglial TREM2 signaling activation. Notably, DHQ failed to reduce inflammatory cytokines release and further present neuroprotection from DA neurotoxicity upon TREM2 silencing. Similarly, DHQ didn't exert DA neuroprotection in TREM2 knockout mice. CONCLUSIONS: These findings suggest that DHQ exerted DA neuroprotection by regulating microglia TREM2 activation.

How plants find a way to thrive in alpine habitats remains largely unknown. Here we present a chromosome-level genome assembly for an alpine medicinal herb, Triplostegia glandulifera (Caprifoliaceae), and 13 transcriptomes from other species of Dipsacales. We detected a whole-genome duplication event in T. glandulifera that occurred prior to the diversification of Dipsacales. Preferential gene retention after whole-genome duplication was found to contribute to increasing cold-related genes in T. glandulifera. A series of genes putatively associated with alpine adaptation (e.g. CBFs, ERF-VIIs, and RAD51C) exhibited higher expression levels in T. glandulifera than in its low-elevation relative, Lonicera japonica. Comparative genomic analysis among five pairs of high- vs low-elevation species, including a comparison of T. glandulifera and L. japonica, indicated that the gene families related to disease resistance experienced a significantly convergent contraction in alpine plants compared with their lowland relatives. The reduction in gene repertory size was largely concentrated in clades of genes for pathogen recognition (e.g. CNLs, prRLPs, and XII RLKs), while the clades for signal transduction and development remained nearly unchanged. This finding reflects an energy-saving strategy for survival in hostile alpine areas, where there is a tradeoff with less challenge from pathogens and limited resources for growth. We also identified candidate genes for alpine adaptation (e.g. RAD1, DMC1, and MSH3) that were under convergent positive selection or that exhibited a convergent acceleration in evolutionary rate in the investigated alpine plants. Overall, our study provides novel insights into the high-elevation adaptation strategies of this and other alpine plants.
RESUMO
Hydrolyzed royal jelly peptide (RJP) has garnered attention for its health-promoting functions. However, the potential applications of RJP in skincare have not been fully explored. In this study, we prepared RJP through the enzymatic hydrolysis of royal jelly protein with trypsin and investigated its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties on primary human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs). Our results demonstrate that RJP effectively inhibits oxidative damage induced by H2O2 and lipid peroxidation triggered by AAPH and t-BuOOH in HDFs. This effect may be attributed to the ability of RJP to enhance the level of glutathione and the activities of catalase and glutathione peroxidase 4, as well as its excellent iron chelating capacity. Furthermore, RJP modulates the NLRP3 inflammasome-mediated inflammatory response in HDFs, suppressing the mRNA expressions of NLRP3 and IL-1ß in the primer stage induced by LPS and the release of mature IL-1ß induced by ATP, monosodium urate, or nigericin in the activation stage. RJP also represses the expressions of COX2 and iNOS induced by LPS. Finally, we reveal that RJP exhibits superior antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties over unhydrolyzed royal jelly protein. These findings suggest that RJP exerts protective effects on skin cells through antioxidative and anti-inflammatory mechanisms, indicating its promise for potential therapeutic avenues for managing oxidative stress and inflammation-related skin disorders.
RESUMO
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a severe neurodegenerative disease associated with the loss of dopaminergic (DA) neurons in the substantia nigra (SN). Although its pathogenesis remains unclear, microglia-mediated neuroinflammation significantly contributes to the development of PD. Here we showed that the sine oculis homeobox (SIX) homologue family transcription factors SIX2 exerted significant effects on neuroinflammation. The SIX2 protein, which is silenced during development, was reactivated in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-treated microglia. The reactivated SIX2 in microglia mitigated the LPS induced inflammatory effects, and then reduced the toxic effect of conditioned media (CM) of microglia on co-cultured MES23.5 DA cells. Using the LPS-stimulated Cx3cr1-CreERT2 mouse model, we also demonstrated that the highly-expressed SIX2 in microglia obviously attenuated neuroinflammation and protected the DA neurons in SN. Further RNA-Seq analysis on the inflammatory activated microglia revealed that the SIX2 exerted these effects via up-regulating the FXYD domain containing ion transport regulator 2 (FXYD2). Taken together, our study demonstrated that SIX2 was an endogenous anti-inflammatory factor in microglia, and it exerted anti-neuroinflammatory effects by regulating the expression of FXYD2, which provides new ideas for anti-neuroinflammation in PD.

Kaempferol (KPR), a flavonoid compound found in various plants and foods, has garnered attention for its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anticancer properties. In preliminary studies, KPR can modulate several signaling pathways involved in inflammation, making it a candidate for treating cholecystitis. This study aimed to explore the effects and mechanisms of KPR on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced human gallbladder epithelial cells (HGBECs). To assess the impact of KPR on HGBECs, the HGBECs were divided into control, KPR, LPS, LPS + KPR, and LPS + UDCA groups. Cell viability and cytotoxicity were evaluated by MTT assay and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) assay, respectively, and concentrations of KPR (10-200 µM) were tested. LPS-induced inflammatory responses in HGBECs were to create an in vitro model of cholecystitis. The key inflammatory markers (IL-1ß, IL-6, and TNF-α) levels were quantified using ELISA, The modulation of the MAPK/NF-κB signaling pathway was measured by western blot using specific antibodies against pathway components (p-IκBα, IκBα, p-p65, p65, p-JNK, JNK, p-ERK, ERK, p-p38, and p38). The cell viability and LDH levels in HGBECs were not significantly affected by 50 µM KPR, thus it was selected as the optimal KPR intervention concentration. KPR increased the viability of LPS-induced HGBECs. Additionally, KPR inhibited the inflammatory factors level (IL-1ß, IL-6, and TNF-α) and protein expression (iNOS and COX-2) in LPS-induced HGBECs. Furthermore, KPR reversed LPS-induced elevation of p-IκBα/IκBα, p-p65/p65, p-JNK/JNK, p-ERK/ERK, and p-p38/p38 ratios. KPR attenuates the LPS-induced inflammatory response in HGBECs, possibly by inhibiting MAPK/NF-κB signaling.

In this editorial, we offer our perspective on the groundbreaking study entitled "Hypoxia and inflammatory factor preconditioning enhances the immunosuppressive properties of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells", recently published in World Journal of Stem Cells. Despite over three decades of research on the clinical application of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), only a few therapeutic products have made it to clinical use, due to multiple preclinical and clinical challenges yet to be addressed. The study proved the hypoxia and inflammatory factor preconditioning led to higher immunosuppressive effects of MSCs without damaging their biological characteristics, which revealed the combination of inflammatory factors and hypoxic preconditioning offers a promising approach to enhance the function of MSCs. As we delve deeper into the intricacies of pretreatment methodologies, we anticipate a transformative shift in the landscape of MSC-based therapies, ultimately contributing to improved patient outcomes and advancing the field as a whole.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: OP9 mouse stromal cell line has been widely used to induce differentiation of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) into hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs). However, the whole co-culture procedure usually needs 14-18 days, including preparing OP9 cells at least 4 days. Therefore, the inefficient differentiation system is not appreciated. We aimed to optimize the culture conditions to improve differentiation efficiency. METHODS: In the experimental group, we set six different densities of OP9 cells and just cultured them for 24 h before co-culture, and in the control group, OP9 cells were cultured for 4 days to reach an overgrown state before co-culture. Then we compared the hematopoietic differentiation efficiency among them. RESULTS: OP9 cells were randomly assigned into two groups. In the experimental group, six different plated numbers of OP9 cells were cultured for 1 day before co-culture with hESCs. In contrast, in the control group, OP9 cells were cultured for 4 days at a total number of 3.1 × 104 cells/cm2 in a 6-well plate to reach an overgrown state before co-culture. Hematopoietic differentiation was evaluated with CD34 immunostaining, and compared between these two groups. We could not influence the differentiation efficiency of OP9 cells with a total number of 10.4 × 104 cells/cm2 in a 6-well plate which was cultured just for 1 day, followed by co-culture with hESCs. It reached the same differentiation efficiency 5 days earlier than the control group. CONCLUSION: The peak of CD34 + cells appeared 2 days earlier compared to the control group. A total number of 1.0 × 106 cells in a 6-well plate for OP9 cells was appropriate to have high differentiation efficiency.

BACKGROUND: Medial meniscal extrusion (MME) plays an important role in the progression of knee osteoarthritis. Exploring the factors associated with MME in non-osteoarthritic knees may assist in the prevention of osteoarthritis. OBJECTIVE: To identify the factors associated with pathologic MME in non-osteoarthritic knees with medial meniscus tears (MMTs). DESIGN: A cross-sectional study. PARTICIPANTS: One hundred fifty patients with non-osteoarthritic knees who underwent arthroscopic surgery for MMT. Patients were divided into a pathologic MME group (n = 54) and a control group (n = 96) based on whether a pathologic MME was present on magnetic resonance (MR) images. SETTING: Tertiary medical institution. INTERVENTIONS: Not applicable. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The MME distance was measured on a coronal MR image obtained at the midpoint of the medial femoral condyle. An MME distance ≥3 mm was considered to indicate pathologic MME. Demographic and clinical data were collected as variables. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to identify factors associated with pathologic MME. RESULTS: After multivariable adjustment, body mass index (BMI) and the type of MMT were associated significantly with pathologic MME in the multivariable logistic regression model. Each unit higher in BMI was associated with a 13% higher risk of pathologic MME (odds ratio [OR] 1.13, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.01-1.28, p = .04). The odds of pathologic MME were approximately four times and three times higher for radial tears (OR 4.34, 95% CI 1.25-15.03, p = .02) and complex tears (OR 3.07, 95% CI 1.17-8.05, p = .02) than for horizontal and longitudinal tears. CONCLUSIONS: BMI and the type of MMT were independent factors associated with pathologic MME in non-osteoarthritic knees with MMT. A higher BMI, radial tears, and complex tears were predisposed to pathologic MME.
RESUMO
AIM: To explore the usage of choroidal thickness measured by swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT) to detect myopic macular degeneration (MMD) in high myopic participants. METHODS: Participants with bilateral high myopia (≤-6 diopters) were recruited from a subset of the Guangzhou Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center-Brien Holden Vision Institute High Myopia Cohort Study. SS-OCT was performed to determine the choroidal thickness, and myopic maculopathy was graded by the International Meta-Analysis for Pathologic Myopia (META-PM) Classiï¬cation. Presence of MMD was defined as META-PM category 2 or above. RESULTS: A total of 568 right eyes were included for analysis. Eyes with MMD (n=106, 18.7%) were found to have older age, longer axial lengths (AL), higher myopic spherical equivalents (SE), and reduced choroidal thickness in each Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) grid sector (P<0.001). The area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves (AUC) for subfoveal choroidal thickness (0.907) was greater than that of the model, including age, AL, and SE at 0.6249, 0.8208, and 0.8205, respectively. The choroidal thickness of the inner and outer nasal sectors was the most accurate indicator of MMD (AUC of 0.928 and 0.923, respectively). An outer nasal sector choroidal thickness of less than 74 µm demonstrated the highest odds of predicting MMD (OR=33.8). CONCLUSION: Choroidal thickness detects the presence of MMD with high agreement, particularly of the inner and outer nasal sectors of the posterior pole, which appears to be a biometric parameter more precise than age, AL, or SE.
RESUMO
Copper is an essential trace element, and plays a vital role in numerous physiological processes within the human body. During normal metabolism, the human body maintains copper homeostasis. Copper deficiency or excess can adversely affect cellular function. Therefore, copper homeostasis is stringently regulated. Recent studies suggest that copper can trigger a specific form of cell death, namely, cuproptosis, which is triggered by excessive levels of intracellular copper. Cuproptosis induces the aggregation of mitochondrial lipoylated proteins, and the loss of iron-sulfur cluster proteins. In neurodegenerative diseases, the pathogenesis and progression of neurological disorders are linked to copper homeostasis. This review summarizes the advances in copper homeostasis and cuproptosis in the nervous system and neurodegenerative diseases. This offers research perspectives that provide new insights into the targeted treatment of neurodegenerative diseases based on cuproptosis.

A Pd-catalyzed thiocarbonylative cyclization of N-(o-iodoaryl)acrylamides with easily accessible thioformates has been developed. The reaction has a wide substrate scope with good yields and represents a powerful route to the synthesis of thioester-functionalized oxindoles. Both S-aryl and alkyl thioformates as the thioester sources were well tolerated. The active Pd-CO intermediate may play an important role in the transformation process.
RESUMO
Complex formation of the copper(II) ion (CuII) with histidine (H) and H-containing peptides plays a crucial role in various metallo-enzymatic reactions. To elucidate the nature of coordinate bonding in CuII complexes, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy and 2D IR spectroscopy were employed to investigate the coordination geometries of CuII with diglycine, l-histidylglycine (HG), glycyl-l-histidine (GH), and glycylglycyl-l-histidine. The coordination of CuII to different peptide groups, including the peptide N- and C-termini, the amide group, and the imidazole of the H side chain, exhibits distinct spectral features. The derived molecular structure of the CuII-HG complex based on these spectral features significantly differs from that of CuII-GH, suggesting a preference of the N-terminus and the steric hindrance of the H side chain in CuII chelation.

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.

Sodium solid electrolytes with high ionic conductivity and good interfacial stability with sodium metal are crucial to realize high-performance all-solid-state sodium batteries. In this work, W and B-codoped Na3Sb1-xWxS4-xBx solid electrolytes are prepared by melt-quenching with further annealing. The synthesized Na3Sb0.95W0.05S3.95B0.05 solid electrolyte possesses a high ionic conductivity of 11.06 mS cm-1 under 25 °C and shows significantly improved interface compatibility with metal sodium. Specifically, Na/Na3Sb0.95W0.05S3.95B0.05/Na symmetric cell can stable cycle for 500 h under a current density of 0.05 mA cm-2. In addition, the resultant TiS2/Na3Sb0.95W0.05S3.95B0.05/Na battery exhibits an initial charge capacity of 164.1 mAh g-1 at 0.1 C with a capacity retention of 76.4% after 100 cycles. This work provides a new strategy to realize the high ionic conductivity of sodium solid electrolytes with improved interfacial stability with sodium anode.
RESUMO
The vector characteristics of light and the vectorial transformations during its transmission lay a foundation for polarized photodetection of objects, which broadens the applications of related detectors in complex environments. With the breakthrough of low-dimensional materials (LDMs) in optics and electronics over the past few years, the combination of these novel LDMs and traditional working modes is expected to bring new development opportunities in this field. Here, the state-of-the-art progress of LDMs, as polarization-sensitive components in polarized photodetection and even the imaging, is the main focus, with emphasis on the relationship between traditional working principle of polarized photodetectors (PPs) and photoresponse mechanisms of LDMs. Particularly, from the view of constitutive equations, the existing works are reorganized, reclassified, and reviewed. Perspectives on the opportunities and challenges are also discussed. It is hoped that this work can provide a more general overview in the use of LDMs in this field, sorting out the way of related devices for "more than Moore" or even the "beyond Moore" research.
RESUMO
Rosacea is a complex chronic inflammatory skin disorder with high morbidity. Pyroptosis is known as a regulated inflammatory cell death. While its association with immune response to various inflammatory disorders is well established, little is known about its functional relevance of rosacea. So, we aimed to explore and enrich the pathogenesis involved in pyroptosis-related rosacea aggravations. In this study, we evaluated the pyroptosis-related patterns of rosacea by consensus clustering analysis of 45 ferroptosis-related genes (FRGs), with multiple immune cell infiltration analysis to identify the pyroptosis-mediated immune response in rosacea using GSE65914 dataset. The co-co-work between PRGs and WGCNA-revealed hub genes has established using PPI network. FRG signature was highlighted in rosacea using multi-transcriptomic and experiment analysis. Based on this, three distinct pyroptosis-related rosacea patterns (non/moderate/high) were identified, and the notably enriched pathways have revealed through GO, KEGG and GSEA analysis, especially immune-related pathways. Also, the XCell/MCPcount/ssGSEA/Cibersort underlined the immune-related signalling (NK cells, Monocyte, Neutrophil, Th2 cells, Macrophage), whose hub genes were identified through WGCNA (NOD2, MYD88, STAT1, HSPA4, CXCL8). Finally, we established a pyroptosis-immune co-work during the rosacea aggravations. FRGs may affect the progression of rosacea by regulating the immune cell infiltrations. In all, pyroptosis with its mediated immune cell infiltration is a critical factor during the development of rosacea.
