The aim of study was to establish the packaging system of the recombinant lentiviral vector encoding Gfi1 gene for eukaryotic expression and to realize the efficient, stable expression of Gfi1 32D cells so as to provide effective platform for further studying the development of Gfi1 gene in hematologic malignancies. The three-plasmid recombinant lentiviral vector consisting of transfer plasmid (pLOX-Gfi1/pLOX), the packaging plasmid (pCMVDeltaR8.2) and the envelop plasmid (pMD.G) was prepared and purified. Human embryonic kidney 293T cells were cotransfected with the three plasmids by lipofectamine 2000. After transfection for 48 hours, the viral supernatant was collected and the target cell 32D was transfected with the recombinant lentivirus; the Gfi1 integration and expression in 293T and 32D cells were detected by Western-blot. The results showed that the three plasmids of lentivirus could be transfected into 293T with high efficiency and packaged successfully, and the Gfi1 protein could be detected by fluorescent microscopy. The recombinant lentiviruses carrying Gfi1 could transfer and deliver Gfi1 gene to 32D cells, and the Gfi1 expression in 293T and 32D cell could be detected by Western blot. It is concluded that the recombinant lentivirus carrying Gfi1 can deliver target gene to 32D cells with high efficiency, and the expression of Gfi1 protein is stable in 32D.

Achieving adequate cell densities remains a major challenge in establishing economic biotechnological and biomedical processes. A possible remedy is microcarrier-based cultivation in stirred-tank bioreactors (STBR), which offers a high surface-to-volume ratio, appropriate process control, and scalability. However, despite their potential, commercial microcarriers are currently limited to material systems featuring unnatural mechanical properties and low adaptability.

The identification of structurally novel and potently active BET inhibitors represents a significant advancement in the field of anticancer therapeutics. In the present investigation, leveraging the outcomes of previous screening endeavors, we successfully optimized and synthesized a novel series of bromodomain and extra-terminal (BET) inhibitors with a 4-morpholinothieno[3,2-d]pyrimidine structure. Among the synthesized compounds, compound 6c emerged as a promising candidate, exhibiting exceptional inhibitory activities against various BET isoform proteins, with IC values ranging from 3.

Herein, we designed and synthesized a series of novel 2-methylthieno [3,2-d]pyrimidine analogues as tubulin inhibitors with antiproliferative activities at low nanomolar levels. Among them, compound DPP-21 displayed the most potent anti-proliferative activity against six cancer cell lines with an average IC of ∼6.23 nM, better than that of colchicine (IC = 9.

Targeting phospholipid biosynthesis, specifically phosphatidylcholine (PC), which is enhanced in tumor cells, has been proven a suitable antitumor strategy. In fact, the overexpression of the choline kinase α1 (ChoKα1) isoform has been found in malignant cells and tumors, thus becoming an excellent antitumor target. ChoKα1 inhibitors are being synthesized at the present that show a large inhibitory activity.
