Non-pyrolytic synthesis of laccase-like iron based single-atom nanozymes for highly efficient dual-mode colorimetric and fluorescence detection of epinephrine.

Single-atom nanozymes have garnered significant attention due to their exceptional atom utilization and ability to establish well-defined structure-activity relationships. However, conventional pyrolytic synthesis methods pose challenges such as high energy consumption and random local environments at the active sites, while achieving non-pyrolytic synthesis of single-atom nanozymes remains a formidable technical hurdle. The present study focuses on the synthesis of laccase-like iron-based single-atom nanozymes (Fe-SAzymes) using a non-pyrolysis method facilitated by microwave irradiation.

Colorimetric sensor array for identifying antioxidants based on pyrolysis-free synthesis of Fe-N/C single-atom nanozymes.

Iron-anchored nitrogen/doped carbon single-atom nanozymes (Fe-N/C), which possess homogeneous active sites and adjustable catalytic environment, represent an exemplary model for investigating the structure-function relationship and catalytic activity. However, the development of pyrolysis-free synthesis technique for Fe-N/C with adjustable enzyme-mimicking activity still presents a significant challenge. Herein, Fe-N/C anchored three carrier morphologies were created via a pyrolysis-free approach by covalent organic polymers.

Whole-brain in vivo base editing reverses behavioral changes in Mef2c-mutant mice.

Whole-brain genome editing to correct single-base mutations and reduce or reverse behavioral changes in animal models of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) has not yet been achieved. We developed an apolipoprotein B messenger RNA-editing enzyme, catalytic polypeptide-embedded cytosine base editor (AeCBE) system for converting C·G to T·A base pairs. We demonstrate its effectiveness by targeting AeCBE to an ASD-associated mutation of the MEF2C gene (c.

A fluorescent carbon dots synthesized at room temperature for automatic determination of nitrite in Sichuan pickles.

In this paper, highly fluorescent carbon dots were synthesized from sodium ascorbate and polyethyleneimine at room temperature (R-CDs). The proposed green synthesis method was energy-saving, environmentally friendly and easy online. R-CDs exhibit an optimal emission peak of 490 nm under excitation at 380 nm with a quantum yield of 32 %.

Flow injection spectrophotometric determination total antioxidant capacity in human serum samples based on response surface methodology to optimize synthesized peroxidase-like activity carbon dots.

Total antioxidant capacity (TAC) is an important indicator for evaluating oxidative stress of the human body. Since TAC is related to the concentration of reducing substances, it can be detected by using peroxidase-like or oxidase-like activity of nanozyme materials. In this work, the cobalt and nitrogen co-doped carbon dots (Co/N-CDs) are fabricated for building stability and high peroxidase-like nanozyme through the Box-Behnken design of response surface methodology.

Clinical significance of FLT3-ITD/CEBPA mutations and minimal residual disease in cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukemia after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

Purpose: Genetic changes have prognostic significance in cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukemia (CN-AML). We set out to evaluate the prognostic of 6 gene mutations in CN-AML.

Methods: We performed a mutational analysis and evaluated prognostic findings of six genes (NPM1, CEBPA, DNMT3A, FLT3-ITD, FLT3-TKD, and C-KIT) in 428 CN-AML patients at our center over 10 years.

Oridonin Induces Apoptosis of Laryngeal Carcinoma via Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress.

Purpose: Oridonin, a bioactive diterpenoid derived from , has been widely reported to exhibit anticancer activity in multiple types of cancer. However, the molecular mechanism of oridonin in human laryngeal carcinoma has not been clearly elucidated. This study investigated the function of oridonin in laryngeal carcinoma to provide a research basis for laryngeal carcinoma therapy.

FLT3-ITD and CEBPA Mutations Predict Prognosis in Acute Myelogenous Leukemia Irrespective of Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation.

Cytogenetic and genetic changes have prognostic significance in acute myelogenous leukemia (AML). In our study, we compared the cytogenetic changes and gene mutations (NPM1, CEBPA, DNMT3A, FLT3-ITD, FLT3-TKD, and C-KIT) with clinical outcomes in 1132 patients with AML enrolled at our center over a 10-year period. A total of 977 patients provided gene mutation data.

[Adenovirus mediated angiostatin gene therapy for ovarian cancer: experiment with nude mice].

Objective: To built an expression vector of angiostatin (AG) gene with recombinated replication defective adenovirus and investigate the therapeutic effect of human AG gene on ovarian cancer.

Methods: (1) Human AG K (1 - 3) cDNA was inserted into the vector pShuttle to build the recombinant plasmid pShttle-AG (K1-3). pAdeno-X-AG (K1-3) was built by double-cut and recombinated pShttle-AG (K1-3) to vector pAdeno-X, and then recombinant adenovirus was finally prepared by transfection of pAdeno-X-AG (K1-3) into to the human embryo kidney cells of the line 293.
