Molecular Display of the Animal Meta-Venome for Discovery of Novel Therapeutic Peptides.

Animal venoms, distinguished by their unique structural features and potent bioactivities, represent a vast and relatively untapped reservoir of therapeutic molecules. However, limitations associated with comprehensively constructing and expressing highly complex venom and venom-like molecule libraries have precluded their therapeutic evaluation via high-throughput screening. Here, we developed an innovative computational approach to design a highly diverse library of animal venoms and "metavenoms".

[Research Advances in Strategies to Enhance the Therapeutic Effects of Mesenchymal Stem Cells on Graft-Versus-Host Disease Post Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation --Review].

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) possess unique immunomodulatory properties and have enormous potential in the treatment of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). However, the low implantation and survival rates of MSC in vivo, coupled with their weak immunosuppressive functions, have resulted in unstable clinical efficacy in the treatment of GVHD. Preconditioning of MSC with hypoxia, active molecules and gene modification can enhance the function of MSC and improve the implantation rate, survival rate and therapeutic effect of MSC.

Transcription Factor-Wide Association Studies to Identify Functional SNPs in Alzheimer's Disease.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder with profound global impact. While genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have revealed genomic variants linked to AD, their translational impact has been limited due to challenges in interpreting the identified genetic associations. To address this challenge, we have devised a novel approach termed transcription factor-wide association studies (TF-WAS).

Therapeutic potential of tLyp-1-EV-shCTCF in inhibiting liver cancer stem cell self-renewal and immune escape via SALL3 modulation in hepatocellular carcinoma.

The progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is influenced by disrupted metabolic processes, presenting challenges in prognostic outcomes. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), a leading cause of cancer-related mortality, is closely associated with metabolic reprogramming and stem cell-like properties in liver cancer stem cells (LCSCs). This study explored the potential molecular mechanisms by which tLyP-1-modified extracellular vesicles (EVs) delivering CTCF shRNA (tLyp-1-EV-shCTCF) regulate mitochondrial DNA methylation-induced glycolytic metabolic reprogramming and LCSC self-renewal.

Molecular Display of the Animal Meta-Venome for Discovery of Novel Therapeutic Peptides.

Animal venoms, distinguished by their unique structural features and potent bioactivities, represent a vast and relatively untapped reservoir of therapeutic molecules. However, limitations associated with extracting or expressing large numbers of individual venoms and venom-like molecules have precluded their therapeutic evaluation via high throughput screening. Here, we developed an innovative computational approach to design a highly diverse library of animal venoms and "metavenoms".

A review regarding the article 'Traditional Chinese medicine compound (Tongxinluo) and clinical outcomes of patients with acute myocardial infarction the CTS-AMI randomized clinical trial'.

Tongxinluo, a traditional Chinese medicine compound, has shown promise in improving outcomes for patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial investigated the efficacy of Tongxinluo in reducing major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs) in STEMI patients. The study enrolled 3777 patients from 124 hospitals in China, all of whom received standard STEMI treatments in addition to either Tongxinluo or placebo for 12 months.

Channel erosion and its impact on environmental flow of riparian habitat in the Middle Yangtze River.

Evaluating environmental flow (EF) is pivotal for conserving and restoring riverine ecosystems. Yet, prevalent EF evaluations presume that a river reach's hydraulic conditions are exclusively governed by inflow discharge, presupposing a state of equilibrium in the river channel. This presumption narrows the scope of EF evaluations in expansive alluvial rivers like the Middle Yangtze River (MYR), characterized by marked channel alterations.

Dredging wastewater discharge from shrimp ponds affects mangrove soil physical-chemical properties and enzyme activities.

Dredging wastewater discharge is a significant environmental concern for mariculture near mangrove ecosystems. However, little attention has been paid to its effects on the soil physical-chemical properties and enzyme activities in mangrove habitats. This study compared the soil physical-chemical properties and enzyme activities in the polluted area that received dredging wastewater from a shrimp pond with those in the control area without wastewater to explore the effects of wastewater discharge on the soil physical-chemical properties and enzyme activities.

Effects of dredging wastewater input history and aquaculture type on greenhouse gas fluxes from mangrove sediments along the shorelines of the Jiulong River Estuary, China.

Dredging wastewater (DW) from aquaculture ponds is a major disturbance factor in mangrove management, and its effects on the greenhouse gas (GHG) fluxes from mangrove sediment remain controversial. In this study, we investigated GHG (NO, CH, and CO) fluxes from mangrove sediment at typical aquaculture pond-mangrove sites that were stimulated by DW discharged for different input histories and from different farm types. The GHG fluxes exhibited differing cumulative effects with increasing periods of DW input.

Microgel-based carriers enhance skeletal stem cell reprogramming towards immunomodulatory phenotype in osteoarthritic therapy.

Skeletal stem cells (SSC) have gained attentions as candidates for the treatment of osteoarthritis due to their osteochondrogenic capacity. However, the immunomodulatory properties of SSC, especially under delivery operations, have been largely ignored. In the study, we found that Pdpn and Grem1 SSC subpopulations owned immunoregulatory potential, and the single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data suggested that the mechanical activation of microgel carriers on SSC induced the generation of PdpnGrem1Ptgs2 SSC subpopulation, which was potent at suppressing macrophage inflammation.

TNFAIP3 Derived from Skeletal Stem Cells Alleviated Rat Osteoarthritis by Inhibiting the Necroptosis of Subchondral Osteoblasts.

Recent investigations have shown that the necroptosis of tissue cells in joints is important in the development of osteoarthritis (OA). This study aimed to investigate the potential effects of exogenous skeletal stem cells (SSCs) on the necroptosis of subchondral osteoblasts in OA. Human SSCs and subchondral osteoblasts isolated from human tibia plateaus were used for Western blotting, real-time PCR, RNA sequencing, gene editing, and necroptosis detection assays.

Mangrove species and site elevation are critical drivers of greenhouse gas fluxes from restored mangrove soils.

The combined influences of species selection (Avicennia marina, Kandelia obovata) and site elevation (BSL site, below local mean sea level; ASL site, above local mean sea level) on the greenhouse gas fluxes (nitrous oxide (NO), methane (CH) and carbon dioxide (CO)) from restored mangrove soils are investigated in this study. Compared with the A. marina forest, soils in the K.

Acute Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress Suppresses Hepatic Gluconeogenesis by Stimulating MAPK Phosphatase 3 Degradation.

Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is a widespread and harmful disease, and is closely linked to acute endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. Previous reports have shown that acute ER stress can suppress hepatic gluconeogenesis and even leads to hypoglycemia. However, the mechanism is still unclear.

However, the development of photothermal catalysts with effective light-to-heat conversion, strong charge transfer ability, and suitable active sites remains a challenge. Herein, the photothermal effect- and interfacial N-Ni/Ta-O bond-modulated heterostructure composed of oxygen vacancy-rich NiO and TaN was rationally fabricated for efficient photothermal catalytic CO reduction.

[The Advance of the HSCT Evaluation at Single-Cell Scale --Review].

Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is one of the effective options for the treatment of irradiation-induced injury on hematopoiesis, malignant hematological diseases, and numerous benign severe hematopathy. However, the cellular composition of the graft for HSCT, as well as the significant events of transplanted HSCs in receipients including HSC homing, engraftment, differentiation, remains to be further elucidated. In recent years, with advances in single-cell techniques, the hematopoiesis has been decoding at single cell scale.

Identification of Regulatory Elements in Primary Sensory Neurons Involved in Trauma-Induced Neuropathic Pain.

Chronic pain is a significant public health issue that is often refractory to existing therapies. Here we use a multiomic approach to identify cis-regulatory elements that show differential chromatin accessibility and reveal transcription factor (TF) binding motifs with functional regulation in the rat dorsal root ganglion (DRG), which contain cell bodies of primary sensory neurons, after nerve injury. We integrated RNA-seq to understand how differential chromatin accessibility after nerve injury may influence gene expression.
