Article Abstract

A series of novel benzosuberone bearing coumarin moieties 5a-c have been synthesized and their structures were determined by analytical and spectral (FT-IR, (1)H NMR, (13)C NMR, HRMS) studies. The newly synthesized compounds were evaluated for their cytotoxicity against four human cancer cell lines, A549 (Human alveolar adenocarcinoma cell line), HeLa (Human cervical cancer cell line), MDA-MB-231 (Human breast adenocarcinoma cell line), MCF-7 (Human breast adenocarcinoma cell line) and normal cell line HEK293 (Human embryonic kidney cell line). Compound 5a exhibited promising cytotoxicity with IC50 values ranging from 3.35 to 16.79 μM against all the cancer cell lines like A549, HeLa, MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231, while compound 5c showed significant cytotoxicity against HeLa and MDA-MB-231 with IC50 values of 6.72 and 4.87, respectively.

Acute inflammation induces acute megakaryopoiesis with impaired platelet production during fetal hematopoiesis.

Development

January 2025

Institute for Regenerative Medicine, State Key Laboratory of Cardiology and Medical Innovation Center, Shanghai East Hospital, School of Life Sciences and Technology, Tongji University, Shanghai 200092, China.

Hematopoietic development is tightly regulated by various factors. The role of RNA m6A modification during fetal hematopoiesis, particularly in megakaryopoiesis, remains unclear. Here, we demonstrate that loss of m6A methyltransferase METTL3 induces formation of double-stranded RNAs (dsRNAs) and activates acute inflammation during fetal hematopoiesis.

Vaccinia growth factor-dependent modulation of the mTORC1-CAD axis upon nutrient restriction.

J Virol

January 2025

Department of Veterinary Pathobiology, College of Veterinary Medicine & Biomedical Sciences, Texas A&M University, College Station, Texas, USA.

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.

Invasive pulmonary infections are a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with hematological malignancies and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT) recipients. A delay in identifying a causative agent may result in late initiation of appropriate treatment and adverse clinical outcomes. We examine the diagnostic utility of PCR-based assays in evaluating invasive pulmonary infections from bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL).

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.
