Electrochemical Reductive Bimolecular Cycloaddition of 2-Arylideneindane-1,3-diones for the Synthesis of Spirocyclopentanole Indane-1,3-diones.

An electrochemical reductive bimolecular cycloaddition of 2-arylideneindane-1,3-diones has been reported for the synthesis of spirocyclopentanole indane-1,3-diones bearing five contiguous stereocenters with vicinal tetrasubstituted stereocenters, especially involving a quaternary carbon center, in moderate to good yields and excellent diastereoselectivities. The present protocol features mild reaction conditions, no external chemical redox reagents, excellent atom economy, and gram-scale synthesis. In addition, a mechanistic investigation indicates that the reactions proceed through a radical pathway.

Effect of different inoculation strategies of mixed culture Saccharomyces cerevisiae/Oenococcus oeni on the aroma quality of Chardonnay wine.

There has been growing interest in the use of mixed cultures comprised of Oenococcus oeni and Saccharomyces cerevisiae to produce wine with local style and typicality. This study has investigated the influence of the inoculation protocol of O. oeni on the fermentation kinetics and aromatic profile of Chardonnay wine.

Anti- activity and gastroprotective effects of human stomach-derived strain LPG-9.

The eradication of is an urgent global issue. However, the traditional regimens have several limitations. Thus, we propose the idea of treating bacterial gastric disease with the objective of eliminating gastric pathogenic bacteria and enhancing gastroprotective effects using gastric probiotics.

The promotion strategies and dynamic evaluation model of exhibition-driven sustainable tourism based on previous/prospective tourist satisfaction after COVID-19.

After COVID-19, all art exhibitions in 2020 were forced to close and postponed until 2021 in Japan. The current paper studies the dynamic evaluation model and exhibition-driven event tourism promotion strategies based on previous/prospective tourist satisfaction surveys. Echigo-Tsumari Art Triennale (ETAT) was selected for the evaluation case.

Copper-catalyzed three-component annulation toward pyrroles the cleavage of two C-C bonds in 1,3-dicarbonyls.

The first copper-catalyzed three-component annulation of α,β-unsaturated ketoximes, 1,3-dicarbonyls and paraformaldehyde has been documented. This novel strategy achieved the two C-C bond cleavage of 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds directly as a single-carbon synthon and provided a new and highly efficient method for the synthesis of 2,3-disubstituted pyrroles in moderate to good yields with broad functional group compatibility.

N6-methyladenosine RNA modifications: a potential therapeutic target for AML.

N6-methyladenosine (m6A) RNA modification has recently emerged as an essential regulator of normal and malignant hematopoiesis. As a reversible epigenetic modification found in messenger RNAs and non-coding RNAs, m6A affects the fate of the modified RNA molecules. It is essential in most vital bioprocesses, contributing to cancer development.

Loss of EPS8 sensitizes non-small-cell lung carcinoma to chemotherapy-induced DNA damage.

Epidermal growth factor receptor pathway substrate number 8 (EPS8) has been reported to be critical in mediating tumor progression. However, the molecular and biological consequences of EPS8 overexpression remain unclear. Here we evaluated whether EPS8 increased DNA damage repair in non-small-cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) cells and the mechanism of EPS8-mediated DNA damage repair which influenced chemosensitivity.

The immunometabolic landscape of the bone marrow microenvironment in acute myeloid leukemia.

The bone marrow microenvironment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) consists of various cell types and signaling factors, which serve as a niche supporting leukemia cells in their invasion of the human body. However, a systematic landscape of metabolic heterogeneity and its relationship with immunity in the AML microenvironment at single-cell resolution has not yet been established. Herein, we addressed this issue by analyzing 208,543 bone marrow cells from 40 AML patients and 3 healthy donors obtained from GSE130756.

Amino acid metabolism: challenges and opportunities for the therapeutic treatment of leukemia and lymphoma.

Leukemia and lymphoma-the most common hematological malignant diseases-are often accompanied by complications such as drug resistance, refractory diseases and relapse. Amino acids (AAs) are important energy sources for malignant cells. Tumor-mediated AA metabolism is associated with the immunosuppressive properties of the tumor microenvironment, thereby assisting malignant cells to evade immune surveillance.

Systematic pan-cancer landscape identifies CARM1 as a potential prognostic and immunological biomarker.

Background: Belonging to the protein arginine methyltransferase (PRMT) family, the enzyme encoded by coactivator associated arginine methyltransferase 1 (CARM1) catalyzes the methylation of protein arginine residues, especially acts on histones and other chromatin related proteins, which is essential in regulating gene expression. Beyond its well-established involvement in the regulation of transcription, recent studies have revealed a novel role of CARM1 in tumorigenesis and development, but there is still a lack of systematic understanding of CARM1 in human cancers. An integrated analysis of CARM1 in pan-cancer may contribute to further explore its prognostic value and potential immunological function in tumor therapy.

Metabolic regulation of the bone marrow microenvironment in leukemia.

Most leukemia patients experience little benefit from immunotherapy, in part due to the immunosuppressive bone marrow microenvironment. Various metabolic mechanisms orchestrate the behaviors of immune cells and leukemia cells in the bone marrow microenvironment. Furthermore, leukemia cells regulate the bone marrow microenvironment through metabolism to generate an adequate supply of energy and to escape antitumor immune surveillance.
