RESUMO

[2.2]Paracyclophane-fused heterocycles represent an important scaffold. Traditional approaches often suffer from tedious synthetic routes, and the development of catalytic synthesis of them remains in its infancy. Herein, by employing highly strained aryne intermediates as partners, we have developed a concise protocol by palladium-catalyzed C-H activation/annulation from [2.2]paracyclophanecarboxamide substrates. [2.2]Paracyclophane-fused quinolinone products are obtained in good yields (up to 84%). Furthermore, the utility of the process has been shown through the synthesis of [2.2]paracyclophane-fused heterocyclic catalysts.

RESUMO

Chondrosarcoma(CS), a prevalent primary malignant bone tumor, frequently exhibits chemotherapy resistance attributed to upregulated anti-apoptosis pathways such as the Bcl-2 family. In this manuscript, a new strategy is presented to augment chemosensitivity and mitigate systemic toxicity by harnessing a nano-enabled drug delivery hydrogel platform. The platform utilizes "PLGA-PEG-PLGA", an amphiphilic triblock copolymer combining hydrophilic polyethylene glycol (PEG) and hydrophobic polylactide glycolide (PLGA) blocks, renowned for its properties conducive to crafting a biodegradable, temperature-sensitive hydrogel. This platform is tailored to encapsulate a ratiometrically designed dual-loaded liposomes containing a first-line chemo option for CS, Doxorubicin (Dox), plus a calculated amount of small molecule inhibitor for anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 pathway, ABT-737. In vitro and in vivo evaluations demonstrate successful Bcl-2 suppression, resulting in the restoration of Dox sensitivity, evident through impeded tumor growth and amplified necrosis rates at the tumor site. This delivery system showcases remarkable thermal responsiveness, injectability, and biodegradability, all finely aligned with the clinical demands of CS treatment. Collectively, this study introduces a transformative avenue for tackling drug resistance in CS chemotherapy, offering significant clinical potential.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: m6A modification is currently recognized as a major driver of RNA function that maintains cancer cell homeostasis. Long non-coding (Lnc) RNAs control cell proliferation and play an important role in the occurrence and progression of colorectal cancer (CRC). ZCCHC4 is a newly discovered m6A methyltransferase whose role and mechanism in tumors have not yet been elucidated. METHODS: The EpiQuik m6A RNA methylation kit was used to detect the level of total RNA m6A in six types of digestive tract tumors. The Kaplan-Meier method and receiver operating characteristic curve were used to evaluate the prognostic and diagnostic value of the newly discovered m6A methyltransferase, ZCCHC4, in CRC. The effects on CRC growth in vitro and in vivo were studied using gain- and loss-of-function experiments. The epigenetic mechanisms underlying ZCCHC4 upregulation in CRC were studied using RIP, MeRIP-seq, RNA pull-down, and animal experiments. RESULTS: We reported that the ZCCHC4-LncRNAGHRLOS-KDM5D axis regulates the growth of CRC in vitro and in vivo. We found that ZCCHC4 was upregulated in primary CRC samples and could predict adverse clinical outcomes in patients with CRC. Mechanistically, ZCCHC4 downregulated LncRNAGHRLOS to promote CRC tumorigenesis. As a downstream molecule of LncRNAGHRLOS, KDM5D directly controls CRC cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. CONCLUSION: This study suggests that the ZCCHC4 axis contributes to the tumorigenesis and progression of CRC and that ZCCHC4 may be a potential biomarker for this malignancy.

RESUMO

A mild and effective strategy for the asymmetric synthesis of C2-quaternary indolin-3-ones from 2-alkynyl arylazides and ketones by gold/chiral amine relay catalysis is described. In this reaction, 2-alkynyl arylazides undergo gold-catalyzed cyclization, nucleophilic attack, and oxidation to form intermediate 2-phenyl-3H-indol-3-ones, followed by an l-proline-catalyzed asymmetric Mannich reaction with ketones, to afford corresponding products in satisfactory yields with excellent enantio- and diastereoselectivities.

RESUMO

Rational design of heterostructure catalysts through phase engineering strategy plays a critical role in heightening the electrocatalytic performance of catalysts. Herein, a novel amorphous/crystalline (a/c) heterostructure (a-CoS/Ni3 S2 ) is manufactured by a facile hydrothermal sulfurization method. Strikingly, the interface coupling between amorphous phase (a-CoS) and crystalline phase (Ni3 S2 ) in a-CoS/Ni3 S2 is much stronger than that between crystalline phase (c-CoS) and crystalline phase (Ni3 S2 ) in crystalline/crystalline (c/c) heterostructure (c-CoS/Ni3 S2 ) as control sample, which makes the meta-stable amorphous structure more stable. Meanwhile, a-CoS/Ni3 S2 has more S vacancies (Sv ) than c-CoS/Ni3 S2 because of the presence of an amorphous phase. Eventually, for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER), the a-CoS/Ni3 S2 exhibits a significantly lower overpotential of 192 mV at 10 mA cm-2 compared to the c-CoS/Ni3 S2 (242 mV). An exceptionally low cell voltage of 1.51 V is required to achieve a current density of 50 mA cm-2 for overall water splitting in the assembled cell (a-CoS/Ni3 S2 || Pt/C). Theoretical calculations reveal that more charges transfer from a-CoS to Ni3 S2 in a-CoS/Ni3 S2 than in c-CoS/Ni3 S2 , which promotes the enhancement of OER activity. This work will bring into play a fabrication strategy of a/c catalysts and the understanding of the catalytic mechanism of a/c heterostructures.

RESUMO

It is of great scientific significance in regulating plantation ecosystem restoration to investigate the effects of the nitrogen (N) deposition and litter manipulation on soil organic carbon components and enzyme activities. A micro-plot experiment was conducted with four nitrogen additions[CK (0 kg·hm-2·a-1, calculated by N), LN (50 kg·hm-2·a-1), MN (100 kg·hm-2·a-1), and HN (200 kg·hm-2·a-1)] and two litter treatments[LR (litter removal) and L (litter retained)] for tropical rubber plantations in western Hainan Island. The soil physico-chemical properties, soil organic carbon components, and enzyme activities in 0-10 cm and 10-20 cm depths were analyzed. The results showed that soil pH significantly decreased with elevated N addition and litter removal. The contents of NO3--N and NH4+-N significantly increased with elevated N addition. Moreover, there was a significant interaction between N addition and litter treatment on the contents of NO3--N and NH4+-N (P < 0.05). Compared to that with L, LR reduced SOC and its component contents; particularly, the largest decrease was in LFOC by 29.0%-81.4% in the 0-10 cm depth and 23.5%-58.4% in 10-20 cm, respectively. The contents of SOC and its components presented a trend of increasing first and then decreasing with elevated N addition irrespective of litter treatment, and those contents were significantly higher at LN than those at HN. There was a significant interaction between N addition and litter treatment on SOC, LFOC (0-10 cm), and HFOC contents. Compared with that under L, PPO activity was significantly reduced at LR under CK and LN but was significantly increased at LR under MN and HN, respectively. Variance analysis showed significant interactive effects between N addition and litter treatment on PPO and CBH (0-10 cm) activities, and the soil enzyme activity (BG, PPO, and CBH) responding to N addition was greater than that to the litter treatment. Pearson correlation analysis showed that SOC content was extremely positively correlated with MBC, POC, LFOC, and HFOC contents. To summarize, litter retained combined with low N deposition played an important synergistic role of improving SOC pool and soil enzyme activities for tropical rubber plantation systems.

RESUMO

Background: Milk Fat Globule-Epidermal Growth Factor 8 (MFG-E8) has been reported to play an oncogenic role in a variety of tumors. However, its involvement in gastric cancer (GC) development has not been described. Methods: The cancer genome atlas (TCGA) and the gene expression omnibus database (GEO) databases were used to analyze the expression of MFG-E8 in GC. These findings were further validated using immunohistochemistry (IHC) and western blotting assay (WB). Kaplan-Meier method, univariate logistic regression, and Christopher Cox regression were used to study the relationship between MFG-E8 and clinical pathology. In addition, the potential signaling pathways involved in MFG-E8 and its potential correlation with levels of immune cell infiltration were investigated. Finally, the biological function of MFG-E8 in GC cells was revealed. Results: MFG-E8 was highly expressed in GC patients and cells, and the high level of MFG-E8 was associated with poor overall survival (OS). KEGG analysis indicated that MFG-E8 may play an important role in the cAMP signaling pathway. The expression of MFG-E8 was positively correlated with the infiltration of M2 macrophages. The patients with high MFG-E8 were easy to develop chemotherapy resistance. Furthermore, the knockdown of MFG-E8 significantly inhibited the proliferation and invasion of GC cells. Conclusion: MFG-E8 in GC may serve as a prognostic marker and a potential immunotherapy target for GC.

RESUMO

Metallic Al has been deemed an ideal electrode material for aqueous batteries by virtue of its abundance and high theoretical capacity (8056 mAh cm-3). However, the development of aqueous Al metal batteries has been hindered by several side reactions, including water decomposition, Al corrosion, and passivation, which arise from the solvation reaction of Al and H2O in conventional aqueous electrolytes. In this work, we report that water activity in electrolyte can be suppressed by optimizing the Al3+ solvation structure through intercalation of polar pyridine-3-carboxylic acid in an aluminum trifluoromethanesulfonate aqueous environment. Furthermore, the pyridine-3-carboxylic acid molecules are inclined to alter the surface energy of Al, thus suppressing the random deposition of Al. As a result, the Al corrosion in the hybrid electrolyte is restrained, and the long-term electrochemical stability of the electrolyte is tremendously improved. These merits bring remarkable reversibility to aqueous Al batteries using Al-preintercalated MnO2 cathodes, delivering a retaining energy density of >250 Wh kg-1 at 0.2 A g-1 after 600 cycles.

RESUMO

Sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas [L.] Lam.) is a crucial staple and bioenergy crop. Its abiotic stress tolerance holds significant importance in fully utilizing marginal lands. Transcriptional processes regulate abiotic stress responses, yet the molecular regulatory mechanisms in sweet potato remain unclear. In this study, a NAC (NAM, ATAF1/2, and CUC2) transcription factor, IbNAC087, was identified, which is commonly upregulated in salt- and drought-tolerant germplasms. Overexpression of IbNAC087 increased salt and drought tolerance by increasing jasmonic acid (JA) accumulation and activating reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging, whereas silencing this gene resulted in opposite phenotypes. JA-rich IbNAC087-OE (overexpression) plants exhibited more stomatal closure than wild-type (WT) and IbNAC087-Ri plants under NaCl, polyethylene glycol, and methyl jasmonate treatments. IbNAC087 functions as a nuclear transcriptional activator and directly activates the expression of the key JA biosynthesis-related genes lipoxygenase (IbLOX) and allene oxide synthase (IbAOS). Moreover, IbNAC087 physically interacted with a RING-type E3 ubiquitin ligase NAC087-INTERACTING E3 LIGASE (IbNIEL), negatively regulating salt and drought tolerance in sweet potato. IbNIEL ubiquitinated IbNAC087 to promote 26S proteasome degradation, which weakened its activation on IbLOX and IbAOS. The findings provide insights into the mechanism underlying the IbNIEL-IbNAC087 module regulation of JA-dependent salt and drought response in sweet potato and provide candidate genes for improving abiotic stress tolerance in crops.

RESUMO

The utilization of titanium dioxide (TiO2) as a photocatalyst for the treatment of wastewater has attracted significant attention in the environmental field. Herein, we prepared an NH2-MIL-125-derived N-doped TiO2@C Visible Light Catalyst through an in situ calcination method. The nitrogen element in the organic connector was released through calcination, simultaneously doping into the sample, thereby enhancing its spectral response to cover the visible region. The as-prepared N-doped TiO2@C catalyst exhibited a preserved cage structure even after calcination, thereby alleviating the optical shielding effect and further augmenting its photocatalytic performance by increasing the reaction sites between the catalyst and pollutants. The calcination time of the N-doped TiO2@C-450 °C catalyst was optimized to achieve a balance between the TiO2 content and nitrogen doping level, ensuring efficient degradation rates for basic fuchsin (99.7%), Rhodamine B (89.9%) and tetracycline hydrochloride (93%) within 90 min. Thus, this study presents a feasible strategy for the efficient degradation of pollutants under visible light.

RESUMO

Glioma cell sensitivity to temozolomide (TMZ) is critical for effective treatment and correlates with patient survival, although mechanisms underlying this activity are unclear. Here, we reveal a new mechanism used by glioma cells to modulate TMZ sensitivity via regulation of SORBS2 and DDR1 genes by super-enhancer RNA LINC02454. We report that LINC02454 activity increases glioma cell TMZ sensitivity by maintaining long-range chromatin interactions between SORBS2 and the LINC02454 enhancer. By contrast, LINC02454 activity also decreased glioma cell TMZ sensitivity by promoting DDR1 expression. Our study suggests a bivalent function for super-enhancer RNA LINC02454 in regulating glioma cell sensitivity to TMZ.

RESUMO

In correlated oxides, collaborative manipulation on light intensity, wavelength, pulse duration and polarization has yielded many exotic discoveries, such as phase transitions and novel quantum states. In view of potential optoelectronic applications, tailoring long-lived static properties by light-induced effects is highly desirable. So far, the polarization state of light has rarely been reported as a control parameter for this purpose. Here, we report polarization-dependent metal-to-insulator transition (MIT) in phase-separated manganite thin films, introducing a new degree of freedom to control static MIT. Specifically, we observed giant photoinduced resistance jumps with striking features: (1) a single resistance jump occurs upon a linearly polarized light incident with a chosen polarization angle, and a second resistance jump occurs when the polarization angle changes; (2) the amplitude of the second resistance jump depends sensitively on the actual change of the polarization angles. Linear transmittance measurements reveal that the origin of the above phenomena is closely related to the coexistence of anisotropic micro-domains. Our results represent a first step to utilize light polarization as an active knob to manipulate static phase transitions, pointing towards new pathways for nonvolatile optoelectronic devices and sensors.

RESUMO

There is clearly an unmet need for more effective and safer treatments for multiple sclerosis (MS). Our previous studies showed a significant therapeutic effect of matrine, a monomer of traditional herbal medicine, on experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) mice. To explore the mechanism of matrine action, we used 16S rRNA sequencing technology to determine the gut microbes in matrine-treated EAE mice and controls. The concentrations of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) were then tested by metabonomics. Finally, we established pseudo-sterile mice and transplanted into them fecal microbiota, which had been obtained from the high-dose matrine-treated EAE mice to test the effects of matrine. The results showed that matrine could restore the diversity of gut microbiota and promote the production of SCFAs in EAE mice. Transplantation of fecal microbiota from matrine-treated mice significantly alleviated EAE severity, reduced CNS inflammatory infiltration and demyelination, and decreased the level of IL-17 but increased IL-10 in sera of mice. In conclusion, matrine treatment can regulate gut microbiota and metabolites and halt the progression of MS.

RESUMO

A series of 1-(2-oxocyclohexyl)butane-1, 3-dione derivatives were designed and synthesized as TLR4 inhibitors by modifying the core structure of the lead compound ((6, 8-dioxo-1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 8a-octahydronaphthalen-2-yl) carbamate)). In vitro, compound 3p significantly inhibited the proliferation of rat synovial cells, inhibited the proliferation of LPS-induced RAW264.7 cells, and inhibited TLR4 activity, with IC50 values of 1.21 ± 0.09 µM, 0.73 ± 0.05 µM and 0.43 ± 0.03 µM, respectively, which was superior to the positive control methotrexate. In vivo anti-rheumatoid arthritis evaluation, compound 3p can significantly inhibit the inflammatory factors TNF-α, IL-1ß and IL-6, so as to achieve the therapeutic purpose. In the preliminary mechanism study, compound 3p has obvious regulatory effects on the abnormal increase of TLR4, JAK2 and STAT3 protein and gene expression related to inflammatory signaling pathway in RAW264.7 cells. In summary, this study aims to develop more effective candidates for rheumatoid arthritis.

RESUMO

In osteosarcoma, immunotherapy often faces hurdles posed by cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) that secrete dense extracellular matrix components and cytokines. Directly removing CAFs may prove ineffective and even promote tumor metastasis. To address this challenge, a sequential nanocomposite hydrogel that reshapes CAF behavior is developed, enhancing tumor-infiltrating T-cells in osteosarcoma. The approach utilizes an injectable blend of carboxymethyl chitosan and tetrabasic polyethylene glycol, forming a hydrogel for controlled release of a potent CAF suppressor (Nox4 inhibitor, Nox4i) and liposomal Doxorubicin (L-Dox) to induce immunogenic cell death (ICD) upon in situ administration. Nox4i effectively counters CAF activation, overcoming T-cell exclusion mechanisms, followed by programmed L-Dox release for ICD induction in stroma-rich osteosarcoma models. Combining the co-delivery gel with αPD-1 checkpoint inhibitor further enhances its effectiveness in an orthotopic osteosarcoma model. Immunophenotyping data underscore a significant boost in tumor T-cell infiltration and favorable anti-tumor immunity at the whole-animal level.

RESUMO

Al batteries are promising post-Li battery technologies for large-scale energy storage applications owing to their low cost and high theoretical capacity. However, one of the challenges that hinder their development is the unsatisfactory plating/stripping of the Al metal anode. To circumvent this issue, an ultrathin MXene layer is constructed on the surface of Al by in situ chemical reactions at room temperature. The as-prepared flexible MXene film acts like armor to protect the Al-metal by its high ionic conductivity and high mechanical flexibility. The MXene endow the Al anode with a long cyclic life of more than 5000 h at ultrahigh current density of 50 mA cm-2 for Al//Al batteries and a retention of 100% over 200 cycles for 355 Wh kg-1 PTO//Al batteries. This work provides fresh insights into the formation and regulation of stable electrode-electrolyte interfaces as well as effective strategies for improving Al metal batteries.

RESUMO

Background: Preoperative albumin-bilirubin (ALBI) grade has been proposed and applied in recent years to evaluate the prognosis of liver cancer, but its role in gastric cancer (GC) is still unclear. This research aimed to examine the prognostic value of ALBI grade after gastrectomy among patients with GC complicated with metabolic syndrome (MetS). Methods: There were 628 patients who received radical resection for GC. Laboratory data and short-term results were collected prospectively, and preoperative ALBI grades were calculated from the albumin and bilirubin levels. The appropriate ALBI cutoff value was calculated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis, which we used to put patients into high (>-2.54) and low (≤-2.54) ALBI grade groups. The differences between the short-term complication rates of the two groups were analyzed with the chi-square test. Results: Of the included patients, 133 (21.2%) and 495 (78.8%) had high and low ALBI grades, respectively. A high ALBI grade (P=0.001), body mass index (BMI) ≥25 kg/m2 (P=0.001), and hypertension (P=0.018) were independent risk factors for postoperative complications. In GC patients with and without MetS, the high ALBI subgroup showed more overall complications than the low ALBI subgroup (P=0.028 and P=0.001). Among GC patients with MetS, those with a high ALBI grade showed a higher incidence of serious complications than those with a low ALBI grade (P=0.001); a similar, nonsignificant trend occurred in non-MetS patients (P=0.153). Conclusions: The preoperative ALBI grade is important in the prognosis of GC patients with MetS after gastrectomy. GC patients with MetS can lower their incidence of serious complications by adjusting their preoperative ALBI grade.

RESUMO

Objective: This study compares the efficacy of low-temperature plasma excision and adenoidectomy performed under a nasal endoscope (NE) to treat adenoid hypertrophy (AH). The goal is to offer valuable insights and guidance for future treatments. Methods: We selected a cohort of 83 children diagnosed with AH admitted to our hospital between August 2019 and August 2022. The observation group included 45 children treated with low-temperature plasma excision under NE, while the control group consisted of 38 children treated with adenoidectomy under NE. We compared various parameters, including operative time, intraoperative bleeding, the time for white film disappearance, and the duration of hospitalization between the two groups. Additionally, we assessed levels of superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), C-reactive protein (CRP), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), nasal pharyngeal volume (NPV), total inspiratory resistance (TIR), and total expiratory resistance (TER). Pain and sleep were evaluated using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Finally, we recorded perioperative complications in both groups. Results: No significant difference was observed in the time of albuginea regression between the two groups (P > .05). However, the observation group demonstrated shorter operative time, quicker dietary recovery, and reduced hospital stay compared to the control group (P < .05). After treatment, the two groups had no significant differences in NPV, TIR, and TER (P > .05). Nevertheless, the observation group exhibited higher levels of SOD and GSH-Px, while MDA, CRP, TNF-α, IL-6, VAS, and PSQI scores were lower (P < .05). Furthermore, the incidence of complications in the observation group was significantly lower than in the control group (P < .05). Conclusions: Low-temperature plasma excision performed under NE for AH demonstrates superior outcomes and improved surgical safety and is strongly recommended for the treatment of adenoid hypertrophy.

RESUMO

Objective: The purpose of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to incorporate data from the latest clinical studies and compare the safety and efficacy of surgical left subclavian artery (LSA) revascularization and endovascular LSA revascularization during thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR). Methods: This study was performed in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines and was registered with the PROSPERO database on 16 April 2023 (CRD42023414579). The Embase, MEDLINE (PubMed), and the Cochrane Library databases were searched from January 2000 to May 2023. Results: A total of 14 retrospective cohort studies with a total of 1,695 patients, were included for review. The peri-operative stroke rates of the surgical and endovascular LSA revascularization groups were 3.8% and 2.6%, respectively (P = 0.97). The peri-operative technical success rates for the surgical and endovascular LSA revascularization groups were 95.6% and 93.0%, respectively (P = 0.24). The peri-operative spinal cord ischemia rates were 1.6% (n = 18) and 1.9% (n = 7) in the surgical and endovascular LSA revascularization groups, respectively (P = 0.90). The peri-operative type Ⅰ endoleak rates for the surgical and endovascular LSA revascularization groups were 6.6% and 23.2%, respectively (P = 0.25). The subgroup analysis showed that the incidence of peri-operative type I endoleak in the parallel stent group was significantly higher than that in the surgical LSA revascularization group (P < 0.0001). The peri-operative left upper limb ischemia rates for the surgical and endovascular LSA revascularization groups were 1.2% and 0.6%, respectively (P = 0.96). The peri-operative mortality rates of the surgical and endovascular LSA revascularization groups were 2.0% and 2.0%, respectively (P = 0.88). Conclusion: There was no significant difference in the terms of short-term outcomes when comparing the two revascularization techniques. The quality of evidence assessed by GRADE scale was low to very-low. Surgical and endovascular LSA revascularization during TEVAR were both safe and effective. Compared with surgical LSA revascularization techniques, parallel stent revascularization of LSA significantly increased the rate of type I endoleak.
