Previously, we established a new strategy of synchronous cross linking reaction activated by hybridization to target genes. In this strategy, the highly reactive cross-linking agent, 2-amino-6-vinylpurine nucleoside analog, is generated from its stable precursors by a hybridization-promoted activation process with selectivity to cytosine. In this paper, we wish to report the synthesis of the peptide nucleic acids (PNAs) incorporating 2-amino-6-vinylpurine derivatives and the evaluation of their reactivity to target DNA.

A series of isatin derivatives which could inhibit colorectal cancer (CRC) were synthesized. Among those compounds, 5B exhibited good inhibitory activity of CRC through the inhibition of tubulin expression, inducing apoptosis, and causing G2/M phase cell cycle arrest pathway, which suggested that 5B could be a potential tubulin inhibitor. Based on that, a novel peptide-drug conjugate (PDC), which employed the CRC cells related receptor CD44 ligand peptide A6 coupling to 5B to accomplish A6-5B.

The molecular mechanisms by which vaccinia virus (VACV), the prototypical member of the poxviridae family, reprograms host cell metabolism remain largely unexplored. Additionally, cells sense and respond to fluctuating nutrient availability, thereby modulating metabolic pathways to ensure cellular homeostasis. Understanding how VACV modulates metabolic pathways in response to nutrient signals is crucial for understanding viral replication mechanisms, with the potential for developing antiviral therapies.

Next-generation cancer phenomics by deployment of multiple molecular endophenotypes coupled with high-throughput analyses of gene expression offer veritable opportunities for triangulation of discovery findings in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) research. This study reports differentially expressed genes in NSCLC using publicly available datasets (GSE18842 and GSE229253), uncovering 130 common genes that may potentially represent crucial molecular signatures of NSCLC. Additionally, network analyses by GeneMANIA and STRING revealed significant coexpression and interaction patterns among these genes, with four notable hub genes-, , and -identified as pivotal in NSCLC progression.

Preeclampsia (PE) is the most threatening pathology of human pregnancy. Placenta from PE patients releases harmful factors that contribute to the exacerbation of the disease. Among these factors is the prokineticin1 (PROK1) and its receptor, PROKR2 that we identified as a mediators of PE.

Keyhole limpet haemocyanins (KLH1 and KLH2) from , are multi-subunit oxygen-carrying metalloproteins of approximately 3900 amino acids, that are widely used as carrier proteins in conjugate vaccines and in immunotherapy. KLHs and their derived conjugate vaccines are poorly characterized by LC-MS/MS due to their very stable supramolecular structures with megadalton molecular mass, and their resistance to efficient digestion with standard protocols. KLH1 and KLH2 proteins were conjugated to the conserved P0 peptide (pP0), derived from the P0 acidic ribosomal protein of sp.
