Core transcriptional regulatory circuitry molecule ZNF217 promotes AML cell proliferation by up-regulating MYB.

Leukemia is characterized by multiple rearrangements of signal transduction genes and overexpression of nonmutated genes, such as transcription factors (TFs) genes. Super-enhancers (SEs) are prevalent in human cancers and are associated with the accumulation of numerous core TFs. SEs drive the expression of core TF genes by delivering robust transcriptional activation signals.

Cotransport of Thallium(I) and kaolinite colloids in quartz sand media containing sodium humate: Ionic strength, pH and kaolinite colloid concentration.

In real soil environments, humus, colloids and other components significantly affect pollutant migration behavior. Investigating Tl(I) and kaolinite colloids' cotransport in quartz sand media containing sodium humate (HA-Na) is vital for comprehending Tl(I) migration underground. This study examined the migration of Tl(I) and kaolinite colloids across varying pH levels (5, 7), ionic strengths (ISs) (1, 5, 50 mmol/L), and kaolinite colloid concentrations.

IRF1 is a core transcriptional regulatory circuitry member promoting AML progression by regulating lipid metabolism.

Background: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a prevalent malignancy of the hematologic system. Despite advancements in therapeutic approaches, significant heterogeneity and therapeutic resistance pose substantial challenges to treatment. Tumors driven by core transcription factors through super-enhancers can establish core transcriptional regulatory circuits (CRCs) that modulate oncogene expression programs.

Exploring the phytotoxicity mechanisms of PET nanoplastics and 6:2 FTSA in water hyacinth under individual and combined exposure scenarios.

Due to its similarity in hydrophobic properties to perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS), 6:2 fluorotelomer sulfonic acid (6:2 FTSA) has emerged as a key substitute for PFOS. Its presence in aquatic environments, along with the coexistence of polyethylene terephthalate (PET), may impact the growth of aquatic plants and ecosystem stability. This study explored the changes in antioxidant defense, photosynthetic system, and metabolic responses of water hyacinths (Eichhornia crassipes) under individual and combined exposure conditions.

Efficient photocatalytic degradation of antibiotics using Z-scheme MIL-88(Fe)/TiC/MoO: Mechanistic insights and toxicity assessment.

Antibiotic residues cause water contamination and disrupt aquatic ecosystems. Herein, we reported the fabrication of a novel Z-scheme heterojunction, MIL-88A(Fe)/TiC/MoO (MTO), for safe and efficient removal of antibiotics. TiC was introduced into the MIL-88A(Fe)/MoO (MO) heterojunction as an electronic mediator to accelerate charge separation.

[Metabolomics study on anti-radiation effect of Yiguan Decoction].

The gas chromatography-mass spectrometer(GC-MS) metabolomics method was used to investigate the anti-radiation effect of Yiguan Decoction water extract on mice and explore its related pathways and mechanisms of action. Healthy SPF male mice from Kunming were randomly assigned to six groups: blank group, model group, positive drug group, and high-dose, medium-dose, and low-dose groups of Yiguan Decoction, with ten mice in each group. Mice were prophylactically dosed for six days, and ~(60)Co γ ray with 5 Gy was used to establish a radiation mouse model.

Honokiol ameliorates silica-induced lung fibrosis by inhibiting macrophage pyroptosis via modulating cGAS/STING signaling.

Silicosis is a life-threatening occupational disease because of inhaling silica dust, leading to chronic inflammation, pyroptosis, and fibrosis. Unfortunately, it is still lacking effective pharmacological intervention currently. Honokiol (HKL), a natural extract with biological activity from Magnolia bark, is known for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory biological effects.

Eco-Friendly High-Performance Symmetric All-COF/Graphene Aqueous Zinc-Ion Batteries.

Developing high-performance aqueous symmetric all-organic batteries (SAOBs) by replacing metal-based batteries or batteries with organic electrolytes is highly attractive to achieve a greener rechargeable world. However, such a new energy storage system still exhibits unsatisfactory rate capability and cycling stability due to the limitations in electrode materials screening. Here, a novel covalent organic framework (COF) containing abundant CN and CO for the electrode material is designed, which is combined with graphene and assembled into all-COF/graphene batteries for the first time.

Cu-Catalyzed Asymmetric Three-Component Radical Acylarylation of Vinylarenes with Aldehydes and Aryl Boronic Acids.

The direct use of readily available aldehydes as acyl radical precursors has facilitated diverse three-component acylative difunctionalization reactions of alkenes, offering a powerful route to synthesize β-branched ketones. However, asymmetric three-component acylative difunctionalization of alkenes with aldehydes still remains elusive. Here we report a copper-catalyzed asymmetric three-component radical acylarylation of vinylarenes with aldehydes and aryl boronic acids.

Maturation and persistence of CAR T cells derived from human pluripotent stem cells via chemical inhibition of G9a/GLP.

Elucidating mechanisms of T cell development can guide in vitro T cell differentiation from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and facilitate off-the-shelf T cell-based immunotherapies. Using a stroma-free human iPSC-T cell differentiation platform, we screened for epigenetic modulators that influence T cell specification and identified the H3K9-directed histone methyltransferases G9a/GLP as repressors of T cell fate. We show that G9a/GLP inhibition during specific time windows of differentiation of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) skews cell fates toward lymphoid lineages.

Prediction of perovskite oxygen vacancies for oxygen electrocatalysis at different temperatures.

Efficient catalysts are imperative to accelerate the slow oxygen reaction kinetics for the development of emerging electrochemical energy systems ranging from room-temperature alkaline water electrolysis to high-temperature ceramic fuel cells. In this work, we reveal the role of cationic inductive interactions in predetermining the oxygen vacancy concentrations of 235 cobalt-based and 200 iron-based perovskite catalysts at different temperatures, and this trend can be well predicted from machine learning techniques based on the cationic lattice environment, requiring no heavy computational and experimental inputs. Our results further show that the catalytic activity of the perovskites is strongly correlated with their oxygen vacancy concentration and operating temperatures.

The effects of co-exposure to antibiotics and microplastics in agricultural systems are still unclear. This study investigated the effects of florfenicol (FF) and polystyrene microplastics (PS-MPs) on photosynthetic carbon assimilation in rice seedlings. Both FF and PS-MPs inhibited photosynthesis, while PS-MPs can alleviate the toxicity of FF.
