The bicyclic depsipeptide histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors burkholdacs A and B were efficiently synthesized in a highly convergent and unified manner. The synthesis features the amide coupling of a D-valine-D-cysteine- or D-allo-isoleucine-D-cysteine-containing segment with a D-methionine-containing segment to directly assemble the corresponding seco-acids, key precursors for macrolactonization. Using the same methodology, 5,6,20-tri-epi-burkholdac A was also synthesized. HDAC inhibitory assays and cell-growth inhibition analyses of the synthesized depsipeptides demonstrated the potency order of this class of bicyclic depsipeptides as compared to the clinically approved depsipeptide FK228 (romidepsin). Novel structure-activity relationships within this class of compounds were also revealed.

The potential impact of one-carbon metabolism (OCM)-related B vitamins (vitamin B, B, B, and folate) on colorectal cancer survival warrants investigation but research is sparse. This cohort study examined the association between the prediagnostic dietary intakes of OCM-related B vitamins and colorectal cancer survival. A total of 2799 colorectal cancer patients from the Guangdong Colorectal Cancer Cohort, enrolled at baseline in 2010, were followed for mortality outcomes through 2023.

Vertical migrations by marine organisms contribute to carbon export by consumption of surface phytoplankton followed by defecation in the deep ocean. However, biogeochemical models lack observational data, leading to oversimplified representation of carbon cycling by migrating organisms, such as Antarctic krill (). Using a numerical model informed by 1 year of acoustic observations in the East Antarctic, we estimated the total particulate organic carbon (POC) flux from krill fecal pellets to be 9.

Objective: This study aimed to develop and validate a nomogram to predict the risk of sepsis in non-traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) patients using data from the MIMIC-IV database.
Methods: A total of 803 SAH patients meeting the inclusion criteria were randomly divided into a training set (563 cases) and a validation set (240 cases). Independent prognostic factors were identified through forward stepwise logistic regression, and a nomogram was created based on these factors.

Background: Sweet orange is an important economic crop, and salt stress can inhibit its growth and development.
Methods: In this study, we identified AP2/ERF genes in sweet orange via bioinformatics and performed a combined transcription‒metabolism analysis, which revealed for the first time the integrated molecular mechanism of salt stress regulation in sweet orange.
Key Results: A total of 131 sweet orange AP2/ERF genes were identified and categorized into five groups.
