Background: Epigenetic dysregulation has been implicated in the development and progression of a variety of human diseases, but epigenetic changes are reversible, and epigenetic enzymes and regulatory proteins can be targeted using small molecules. Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACis), as a class of epigenetic drugs, are widely used to treat various cancers and other diseases involving abnormal gene expression.

Results: Specially, HDACis have emerged as a promising strategy to enhance the therapeutic effect of non-neoplastic conditions, including neurological disorders, cardiovascular diseases, renal diseases, autoimmune diseases, inflammatory diseases, infectious diseases and rare diseases, along with their related mechanisms.

Objective: The initial therapeutic approach for diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) entails a rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (R-CHOP) regimen. However, 40% of patients exhibit suboptimal responses, with some experiencing relapse and refractory conditions. This study aimed to explore novel therapeutic strategies and elucidate their underlying mechanisms in DLBCL.

Promoting surface strains in heterogeneous catalysts and heteroatomic interactions in alloying offer an effective strategy for the development of electrocatalysts with greatly enhanced activity. In this work, we design platinum-silver nanotubes (PtAg NTs) with tunable surface compositions by a controlled galvanic replacement reaction of well-defined Ag nanowires (NWs). The optimized and porous PtAg NTs (PtAg-4 NTs), with the Pt5Ag3 surface composition and (111) facet-dominant surface features, exhibit an extraordinary oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) activity that reaches a specific activity of 1.

The development of a facile strategy for conversion of graphene quantum dots (GQDs) into crystalline graphite is of great practical significance and still remains challenging. Herein, rationally assembled crystalline-intercrossed graphite nanocapsules (CI-GNCs) have been realized by a one-step electrochemically induced strategy with the assistance of a soft template, in which the GQDs act as the initial building blocks. The as-prepared CI-GNCs exhibit highly crystalline graphitic nanostructures.

A simple, rapid and sensitive method for the determination of two fluoquinolones (FQs), enoxacin (ENX) and ofloxacin (OFLX) is described by using flow injection analysis with potassium permanganate-sodium sulfite chemiluminescence detection. The calibration graphs for ENX and OFLX are linear in the range of 8.0x10(-10)-1.

The potential energy surfaces of isomerization, dissociation, and elimination reactions for CH3CH2COCl in the S0 and S1 states have been mapped with the different ab initio calculations. Mechanistic photodissociation of CH3CH2COCl at 266 nm has been characterized through the computed potential energy surfaces, the optimized surface crossing structure, intrinsic reaction coordinate, and ab initio molecular dynamics calculations. Photoexcitation at 266 nm leads to the CH3CH2COCl molecules in the S1 state.

The electrochemiluminescence (ECL) of Tb3+-enoxacin-Na2SO3 system (ENX system) and Tb3+-ofloxacin-Na2SO3 system (OFLX system) in aqueous solution is reported. ECL is generated by the oxidation of Na2SO3, which is enhanced by Tb3+-fluoroquinolone (FQ) complex. The ECL intensity peak versus potential corresponds to oxidation of Na2SO3, and the ECL emission spectra (the peaks are at 490, 545, 585 and 620 nm) match the characteristic emission spectrum of Tb3+, indicating that the emission is from the excited state of Tb3+.

A simple electrogenerated chemiluminescence (ECL) analysis method for the determination of norfloxacin (NFLX) is reported. It is based on ECL produced by Na(2)SO(3), which is sensitized by the Tb-NFLX complex. The relative ECL intensity of the Tb(3+)-NFLX-Na(2)SO(3) system is proportional to the amount of NFLX.

A novel flow injection chemiluminescence (CL) system is developed to determine DNA. According to the fact that DNA linearly quenches the CL intensity of Ce(IV)-Na(2)SO(3)-Tb(III)-fluoquinolone antibiotic (FLUQ) system, DNA concentration is determined. The calibration graphs are linear in the range of 0.
